I lifted my wet woollen gloves to my face and wiped the snowflakes from my eyes. I could not feel my nose and my 1 formed a thick fog in the air. The biting wind was making me 2. I was fed up! I didn't want to be here. I wanted to go home. But Mum and Dad had 3me to go for a Sunday afternoon walk in the park. I could see my4 in the snowy path, like a trail of breadcrumbs (一串面包屑) in the forest showing me the way5.

Then I saw a broken spider's web shining golden beneath a pale sun. My breath was like silky soft 11floating up into the freezing cold air.

    Suddenly there was Mum, 12 handing me a big cup of hot chocolate. Her big smile immediately 13 my heart.

“Here you are, Jo. This will keep you 14” she said as she placed a comforting arm around my shoulders and 15her cheek against mine.

    I slowly took a mouthful of the hot16and felt it slowly dripping down my throat like lava (熔岩)17 down a mountainside. My wet woollen gloves were now warm, not 18.  My breath warmed, and I was 19fed up or cold. I was happy and 20.

    You may not realize it, but you are doing much more than just studying when you are at school. School is also the place 1you socialize and learn to get along with people. But this is  2easy. What can you do 3you just don't like one of your classmates?

    If you discover that you have problems 4your classmates or friends, the most important thing to learn is tolerance. Tolerance is the 5to recognize and respect the 6in others. We cannot change the way that other people act , 7it is important to learn to live happily with them.

    Practicing tolerance will allow everyone to form better 8with each other. Getting to know someone may help you 9 why they do things 10from you. It is important to remember that just because something is different does not mean that it is bad. 11 teaches us to keep an even temper and open mind.

    One thing to  12is the old saying, "Treat others how you want  13". You would like to be treated kindly by your classmates, so it is  14to treat them with equal kindness. If you tolerate 15 it does not mean that you have to like it. No one is asking you to 16who you are or what you believe in. Tolerance just means that you will be 17of the differences in others and not try to make them change.

    It is important to 18tolerance because it will make everyone's lives easier. Learn to 19people for their different abilities and interests. The world is a very  20place, and practicing tolerance in your own school and city can help make a difference.

    “A bird with a broken wing will never fly as high.” I'm sure that John would agree with this saying1he felt this way almost every day in school.

    By high school, John was the most famous2in his town. He was always absent, didn't answer questions and got into 3He had failed almost every exam by the time he entered his senior year, yet was 4each year to a higher grade level. Teachers didn't want to 5 him again the following year. John was moving on, but definitely not moving 6

    I met John for the first time at a weekend leadership training program since John was one of 405 students who7At the start of the training, John was just standing 8the circle of students, against the back wall. He didn't 9 join the discussion groups. But slowly, the interactive games 10 him in.

By the end of the training, he had joined the Homeless Project team. The other students on the team were 16 with his passionate concern and ideas. They17 elected John co-chairman of the team.

    John started18at school every day and answered questions from teachers for the first time. He led a second project19300 blankets and 1,000 pairs of shoes for the homeless shelter.

    If we redouble our efforts, our dreams will come true. Chen Zuobin had 1 for 13 years already. Finally, he decided to become a 2 again.

    “I dreamed about 6 branch roads several times a year. I didn't know which one leads to 7 . It made me feel terrible.” One day, Chen Zuobin said to his wife, “I want to go home.” 8 being surprised, his wife said, “9 your heart. Don't worry about me.”

    The young couple returned to their hometown and 10 the Real Food Farm just to lead a real and simple life. Chen Zuobin shook off the 11 and tiredness from too much 12 in the city. Only in the mountains can they enjoy the 13 air. There isn't the smell of tail gas, but the smell of 14 when it shines over the woods. They live a life of “eating healthily and 15 well.

    In a time when eating 16 becomes a luxury（奢侈）in the 17 life, it's truly a right way to return to the 18 . “Life is a journey of 19 the proper way.” Said Chen Zuobin.

    I grew up in a West Virginia mining town in Fayette County. A man named John moved into our town from New Orleans. He was a(n) 1 man, who was at least 6 feet tall and weighed 245 pounds. He had 2 shoulders and truly fitted the V body type. He was really a man with 3and patience.

    John worked for some days, when there were no 4 and John was absolutely an admirable miner. However, when I was ten, the 5 day came. A terrible disaster 6. Timber crossbars(木材横木) were often used in mines to 7 the top. That day my father was working 8 John in the mine. A timber cracked somewhere and the loud cry of a man was 9. Hearing this, my dad and John rushed to the site of the 10. There some miners were trapped. They felt 11 and they sat depressed, either in shock or in prayer(祈祷).

    That's when John did it. He held the timber and applied all his 12 to it. Surprisingly, the blocking moved. Then John raised the timber while all the miners13, but in doing so, the wood was becoming further weakened and John himself was 14 below instead. My father and the other miners 15 started to work with their tools, desperately trying to 16 John, but the top fell and there was no 17 of reaching him. John was buried there forever.

    18 John, a small marble monument(纪念碑) was 19 in front of the entrance to the mine. The 20 had given up his life so that others could live. The monument is still there to this day.
