Last night I was driving from Harrisburg to Lewisburg, a distance of about 80 miles. It was late, I was late, and I was driving 1.

    At one point along an open highway, I came to a crossroads with a traffic light. I was 2 on the road by now, but as I came near the light, it turned 3, and I braked to a stop. I looked left, right, and behind me. Nothing. Not a car, no suggestion of headlights, 4 there I sat, waiting for the light to 5, the only human being, for at least a mile in any 6.

    I started wondering why I 7 to run the light.  I was not afraid of being caught, because there was 8 no policeman anywhere around and there certainly would have been no 9 in going through it.

    Much later that 10, after I'd met with a group in Lewisburg and had climbed into bed near midnight, the question of why I'd stopped for that light 11 me. I think I stopped 12 it's part of a contract (契约) we all have with each other. It's not only the law, but it's an agreement we have, and we trust each other to follow 13: we don't go through red lights.

    We do 14 we say we'll do. We show up when we say we'll show up.

    I was so 15 of myself for stopping for that red light. And as no one would ever have known what a good person I was on the road from Harrisburg to Lewisburg, I had to tell someone.

    Zhang Lei is a highly skilled（技艺精湛的） doctor. He was born in a lonely1village. The people there lived a hard life. They seldom walked out of the mountain. They could2get good education. However, Zhang Lei was3, for he not only went to college, but he also became an excellent doctor. Then what made him lucky? A volunteer teacher called Han Xue encouraged him, and4his life.

    When Han Xue first entered Zhang Lei's school, she couldn't5her eyes. She was shocked by the sights（情景） in front of her: broken windows, small old desks and chairs. Even worse, students of different ages were in the6classroom. It was the only class in the school. Han Xue realized7poor the people were in education. She planned to8as many ways as she could to help them. One day when Han Xue was giving a class, Zhang Lei9some noises for fun. Other kids laughed. At that time Han Xue decided to make good use of the10to help him. She walked towards Zhang Lei and asked him to put out his hands. Looking at them11, Han Xue said with a kind smile, "As soon as I see your little12, I know you will become a highly skilled doctor in the future. Come on!" Hearing this, Zhang Lei was surprised because almost13 said such words this way. Zhang Lei couldn't believe that completely, but he remembered what the teacher said in his heart.

    After that, Zhang Lei studied harder and then made more14continuously. Later, Zhang Lei went to college. After many years, he became a famous doctor, saving many lives.15Zhang Lei talks about his life, he always expresses thanks to his volunteer teacher. Her encouraging words have made what he is.

    I planned to go on a vacation with my family. The idea had come me as I1 to a talk on my car radio.

    The speaker said, 'Love is an act of will. A person can choose to love."2myself, I had to say that I spent little time with 3wife Mary. Well, for two weeks that would change.

    After the long drive, I wanted to sit and read. Mary suggested a walk on the beach. I started to refuse, 4 then I thought, 'Mary's been alone here with kid all week and now she wants to be alone with me." We walked

    On the beach5 the children flew their kites.

    Relaxed and 6, that is how the whole 7 passed. I made a new decision to keep on remembering to choose love.

    There was 8 wrong with my experiment. However, Mary and I still 9 about it today. On the last night, Mary looked at me with the 10 expression.

    'What's 11 matter?" I asked her.

    'Tom," she said in a voice 12 with sadness, 'do you know something 13 I don't?"

    'What do you mean?"

    'Our doctor…did he tell you something about me? Tom, you've been so good to me…am I dying?"

    It took a moment for it all to sink in. Then I couldn't help laughing 14 .

    'No, honey," I said, holding he in my arms. You're not dying; I 15 to live."

    While at the beach this afternoon. I met a 1 called Bob We talked a lot. He said that it was fun playing on the cliffs (悬崖). I told him 2 I was not allowed to go near that place (Mum and Dad had always told me it was dangerous to play there). He called me a coward (胆小鬼). I wanted to prove to him that I was just as 3 as he was, so I agreed to go with him.

    We wanted to make our way down to explore (探索) the area. so Bob started to climb down 4 I followed him. 5, some rocks came down after us. One of them nearly hit my head. We could not get back up. We shouted and shouted for help, but for a long time 6 help came. I was really scared (害怕的). I wanted to cry. Then, we heard some 7. Someone had heard us. A woman tied a rope around 8 while a man at the cliff top held the rope. She 9 her way down to save us.

    My parents were relieved (宽慰的) that I was unhurt, but they were angry that I had done 10 a risky thing. I apologized and promised that I would not do anything like that again.

    Alan and Jack are friends. They wanted to make sure that the birds outside on the ice were ducks or geese(鹅). So 1 a cold January evening last year, the two boys walked onto the frozen(结冰的)river near their homes to get a better look. They2 a rock onto the ice to test it. They thought the ice could hold their 3. Then they stepped(踩；踏)on it. But when Jack took4 steps, he fell through the frozen surface suddenly.

    Alan ran to help his friend. He tried to 5 Jack out from the cold water and onto the frozen land. But the ice didn't hold, and he fell in, too.

    Jack's elder sister saw the boys falling through the ice and started shouting for help John, a neighbor 6  nearby on his way to the store, quickly stopped the car 7 he heard the shout. Seeing the boys, he caught a nearby life ring(救生圈), 8  his shoes and jumped into the water. John swam towards Alan and Jack, and took 9  back to land. They were taken to the hospital at once. 10 , they were saved. They were really thankful to their brave neighbor.
