The back door of the ambulance was suddenly shut and the driver ran to the front, jumped into the seat, and started the engine. Inside were the1 parents, Mr. and Mrs. Green, the mother holding their baby daughter, Ally. The little girl had some food stuck in her 2 and could hardly3.

    The driver, Mr. White, 4 his siren (警报器) and flashing light, and started speeding toward the5 hospital, fighting against 6. The cars ahead of him pulled out of their way 7he drove through the busy traffic. From the back of the ambulance the parents were shouting at him to 8, since Ally almost stopped breathing. In front of him he saw some traffic 9, with the red “stop” light shining. Mr. White knew he had no time to lose, so he drove straight past, 10 to his left and right as he did so.

    Coming towards him from his right was a11. The driver had the windows 12, as the air-conditioner was working and he was playing his radio as well. He was not aware of the ambulance.

    The lights were 13, so he drove 14 on into the path of the ambulance. Mr. White tried to stop his ambulance, but it was too late. It hit the taxi. Everyone was shaken but luckily no one was hurt. Mr. White looked back to see 15 little Ally was. He was 16to see relief instead of fear in the face of the parents.

    “Look!” cried Mrs. Green. “She is17 again.”

    “It must have been the crash (撞击),” said her husband. “It 18 the food out of her throat.” The baby's color was turning 19, and she was crying in a loud but healthy voice.

    They were all joyful, and quite forgot about the 20, the taxi, and the lines of cars all around them.

    A little boy wanted to meet God, He thought it was a long trip to where God lived,1he packed his suitcase with lots of food and drinks and he started his2

    When he had gone about three blocks(街区), he 3 an elderly man. The boy sat down next to him and 4 his suitcase. He was about to take a drink when he noticed that the man looked5 so he offered him a drink. The man.6it and smiled at the boy His smile was so pleasant that the boy wanted to see it again, so he7him another one. The man8smiled at him. They sat there all afternoon eating and smiling, but they never said a word.

As it grew dark, the boy9 it was time to leave, but before he had gone more than a few steps, he10 ran back to the man, and gave him a hug. The man 11 him his biggest smile ever.

    When the boy 12 home a short time later, his mother was surprised by the look of 13on his face. She asked him what made him so happy. He replied, “I had lunch with God, and God's got the most beautiful14 I've ever seen!”

    Meanwhile, the elderly man returned to his home. His son was15by the look of joy on his face and asked him the 16question as the little boys mother. The elderly man replied, “I ate and drank in the park with God.” However, he 17 before his son responded, You know, he's much 18than I expected.”

    Too often we underestimate(低估) the19of a touch, a smile, a kind word, all of which can turn a life around. We should treat the people we meet 20 they come into our lives for a reason. Treat all equally!

    With supper finished, it was our time with Dad. Cindy, Tom and I climbed onto our couch. We all 1 Mom to turn on the old tape player.

    Dad had been piloting airplanes in Vietnam for the Air Force for a year. Through the year, our family received at least one 2a week from Dad. Mom played a part to us every day. Every day when Mom turned on the tape player, Dad 3by asking each of us how our 4had gone and what we had done.5 to the tape machine as if he could hear every word, each of us told him about our6. Because Mom wrote down our responses, Dad was kept7. In the following tape, he8our good deeds and 9corrected our errors. After 10 told Dad their tales, he read to us from the book Mom had sent.

    The day Dad was to11, all of us were playing around the 12. Then the gate in the fence opened. A tall man in a 13walked through the gate.

    My eldest sister jumped off the diving board and ran towards the man. Mom ran behind. The man embraced Mom and kissed her.

    14by the scene, Tom and I looked at each other. Soon, the tall, uniformed man arrived at the pool's edge and smiled 15at us. With the innocence of a four-year-old girl, I looked up and  16 , “Are you my father?”

    He burst into tears, knelt down, 17us into his arms and said, “Yes, I'm your father.” 18 I heard his voice, I 19him as my father because it was the same20that I heard so frequently on tape.

    My husband and I have little money lately. We haven't 1 out for a while, so we went to a 2 last night.

    When we saw the 3, we knew we could only afford to get a small pizza, so we would have enough money left for 4. Before long our pizza that was cut to 4 pieces arrived. My husband wanted to act like a 5, so he would like to put a piece of 6 on my plate. Unluckily it dropped onto the 7. I knew he would be 8 about others' opinions on him. I told him, "Honey, don't let other people 9 us. We still have three pieces left."

    The manager 10 this and came over with a broom (扫帚). He 11 the pizza and said he was 12 that the oven (烤箱) had been turned off, or he would have 13 another pizza for us. At the end of our meal he 14 to our table again to thank us for being here. Then he 15 us one coupon (优惠券) for a free small pizza. We were 16because he could have chosen a 17 attitude (态度) when he saw the pizza we dropped during their closing time. Instead he chose to make sure we could left 18. My husband was going to give him tips for our meal that we had prepared, 19 the manager didn't take them. To some people it might not be important, but to us it meant a lot. Our rare treat of enjoying a night out was made more 20.

I was born legally blind. Of all the stories of my early childhood, the one about a 1 is my mother's favorite. I was only two when the 2 occurred. We had just arrived home from a trip. Mom lifted me out of the car and 3 to speak to the driver. I took advantage of my brief 4 to dash across the lawn (草坪) and hit a large maple tree! I was running so fast that I bounced off the trunk and landed on my backside. Mom 5 me to start crying, but I just sat there for a minute. Then I 6 myself up and kept right on going. 

Mom loves to use this story as an 7 . It reminds her that children don't enter life 8 to take risks or unwilling to 9 again when they fall down. She never wanted me to lose that toughness as I grew older. When I 10 my major life decisions, I was still that little girl tearing full-speed across the lawn. I studied abroad and later moved away from my parents' home to look for a 11 . Through years of 12 , I have become a respected teacher in a school serving high-need students. 

We are almost certain to get 13 at some point during the process of achieving our goal. When that happens, don't sit in the grass and 14 . Just get up and keep on going. It will all be worth it 15 .

There is {#blank#}1{#/blank#} lovely panda. She lives with her parents and they lead a happy life in the forest. One day the panda {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (pick) a huge pumpkin and wanted to take it home. But the pumpkin was too big for her {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (take) it home on her own. She could do nothing but sit beside the pumpkin. She thought {#blank#}4{#/blank#} if she waited there, she might turn to a passerby for help.

Suddenly, she saw a bear {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (ride) a bike towards her. She watched the bike and suddenly, she jumped and shouted {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (happy), "I know! I have a good idea—I can roll (滚动) the pumpkin. It's just like a wheel!" Therefore, she rolled the pumpkin to {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (she) house. When her mother saw the big pumpkin, which was {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (big) than her little daughter, she was {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (surprise), "Oh, my God! How can you get it home?" The little panda answered proudly, "I can't lift it, but I can roll it." Her mother smiled and said, "{#blank#}10{#/blank#} a clever girl you are!"
