I have many teachers now and I love them all, but I think I love my English teacher, Sophia, best.

    Sophia is from the UK. But she loves Chongqing very much. She thinks Chongqing is great. She loves Chongqing food. Do you know what she likes for breakfast? Bread and milk? No, she doesn't. She only has noodles（面条）. Hot pot（火锅） is her favorite and she always eats it on Saturday and Sunday. Sophia has a daughter and a son. Her daughter's name is May. Her son's name is Jack. They are 8 years old. They go to the same school. They like hot pot, too. They are all in Chongqing now.

    We have English from Monday to Friday. So Sophia is very busy. But she is always nice and happy. All my classmates like her and her classes very much. She often plays English games and sings English songs with us. When we have questions, we like to ask her for help.

    Now I think I can do well in English because I have the best English teacher, Sophia.

    Have you ever heard that "Success is a journey, not a destination"? As a man aged 30, I believe it's true. It is, in fact, my law of life. In my eyes, what matters is not necessarily where you are in the end, but what you achieve while you are trying along the way. It means that no matter what, as long as you try, you can never fail. It means you can learn from your mistakes and continue on the next journey a little wiser.

    I think St Louis Rams, a professional American football team in Missouri, as a whole shared my law of life. They played every game with their full potential (潜能) instead of letting a few winning games go to their heads. They had the goal of playing in every Super Bowl, a football game played in the US each year on the first Sunday, in February. Even though they lost some games, they didn't give up.

    It doesn't matter if you don't have the ability to be on top in the end or to win the game; what matters is that you work hard the whole time. You should understand that success is a non-ending journey. Everyone should realize that someone will win and someone will lose, but what's important is that both sides need to try their best. After all, it's not who wins or loses, but how well you play the game and you should remember this in your own life.

Grandma Lee is 70 years old. She lives alone, She spends lots of time on shopping. She thinks it is really interesting. Every morning, she gets up early and then goes to the market to buy some vegetables and fruit. To save money, she always compares the prices of the same vegetable and fruit. She never feels tired of it. And in the afternoon, she goes to the supermarket, because there is usually a sale on at that time. 

Grandma Lee doesn't carry any cash any more. She only takes her mobile phone. Now she can even shop online. She can choose all kinds of things on the Internet and she can get them at home. It's so convenient! 

Carol and Linda took a trip to San Francisco last July. They went there to visit Nick. Nick is a friend from their old neighborhood in Rome. He moved to San Francisco five years ago. They went there by train because they wanted to see more of the United States. 

They arrived in San Francisco in the evening. Nick met them at the train station. They were so delighted to see him. He looked the same as before. They gave him a big hug （拥抱）. The next day, they went sightseeing （观光）. They saw the Golden Gate Bridge. They had lunch at Fisherman's Wharf. At Fisherman's Wharf, they saw the fishing boats come in. The next day, they visited the University of California at Berkeley. Nick teaches music there. Carol and Linda liked the school. They thought that it was very big and very beautiful. 

They saw all of San Francisco before they left. Nick took them everywhere! They went back to New Orleans by plane because they didn't have time to go back by train. Nick was sad （伤心的） to see them go and they were sad to leave. 

All in all, Carol and Linda had a wonderful trip. They traveled （旅行） across Texas, New Mexico and Arizona. They visited all of San Francisco. They had a great visit with Nick. They both wanted to go again next summer!

Bonnie shook with cold. It was almost 1 . Bonnie needed a warm and safe place to spend the following months. 

Finding a new place to sleep was 2 than he thought. No place was right. Finally, Bonnie found a cave in a hill. It was 3 except for one thing. The opening was small because it was covered with a lot of soil and roots. "I'll dig out some soil and make the entrance bigger," he thought. Bonnie dug and dug. It took a lot of hard work and effort. 

The roots were too strong to be cleared away.4 he heard a loud sound, "rack". Bonnie turned quickly and saw a small squirrel. He smiled at Bonnie, "It seems that you need help." Bonnie sighed, "I have been trying to 5 this cave, but it's difficult." 

"I'm Jack, and I can help," said the squirrel. "But you are too small," said Bonnie. Bonnie sat down as Jack ran away. A few minutes later, he came back. 

"What you need is a book," said Jack. "Reading can help you. Books are full of knowledge. He handed Bonnie a thick book." 

Bonnie paid careful attention to the story about a lion and a mouse. 

The lion thought the mouse was too 6 to help him. One day the lion got caught in a 7 . The mouse chewed( 咬 ) the net's ropes and helped the lion run away. "The lion learned an important lesson," said Bonnie. "I think I did, too." The mouse had sharp teeth and so did Jack. Jack could help. The new friends made a fine team. Jack chewed through the thick roots and Bonnie dug out the soil. Finally, Bonnie could 8 the opening easily. 

"Are you 9 with your new home?" asked Jack. "Sure, I am!" said Bonnie, "I won't be homeless on such a cold day any more! And I have 10 something, too. Never look down upon others who appear to be weaker than you."
