Once upon a time, a blind man was sitting at the roadside with a hat by his feet. There was a sign beside him, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (say), “I am blind. Please help me.” {#blank#}2{#/blank#} good many passers-by walked by him, but few of them helped him.

    A creative young man named Tom was going to his office. While walking by the blind man, he stopped {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(see) that the man only had a few coins in his hat. He bent down and put a few of his own coins in the hat. Without asking for the blind man's {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(permit), he took the sign, turned it around and wrote a new message. Then he put the sign by the feet of the blind man, and left.

    {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (late) that afternoon, when Tom returned to the blind man, he saw the hat {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(fill) with bills and coins. The blind man recognized his footsteps and asked if {#blank#}7{#/blank#} was he who had changed his sign. He also wanted to know {#blank#}8{#/blank#} the man had done to the sign.

    Then the young man told the blind man that he {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (write) something like this on the sign, “It is spring now, but I can't see it.” {#blank#}10{#/blank#} （hear）what the young man said, the blind man expressed his gratitude to him and went home happily.

    We high school students do have some growing pains, but we can get rid of them {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (correct) and wisely{#blank#}2{#/blank#}, some of us are upset{#blank#}3{#/blank#} our body styles and looks. It's unnecessary and it's not important at all. We needn't care about it. It is one's inner beauty {#blank#}4{#/blank#} matters. Second, we sometimes seem to be misunderstood by our teachers, parents and classmates.{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (face) with this, we can find a proper time to have a heart-to-heart talk with them, trying {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (remove) the misunderstanding. Some of us have fewer friends. I think being open-minded and friendly will do you good. Third, we may fall behind others{#blank#}7{#/blank#} makes us stressed. Actually we can encourage {#blank#}8{#/blank#} to work efficiently, full of{#blank#}9{#/blank#} (determine). At last, some of us don't have much pocket money, so we feel unhappy. Isn't it strange? So long as we have some, that's enough. And we can learn {#blank#}10{#/blank#} to spend money.

    Can you imagine the world full of crying and shouting, covered in darkness? However, it's not just a joke. It's a real {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (describe) of a world without happiness and laughter.

    If you compare our life to a pie, what would you put in if you were in charge of making the pie?{#blank#}2{#/blank#} (obvious), many people would add as much happiness as possible. Do you know why? It's {#blank#}3{#/blank#} happiness stands for sweetness in most people's minds.

    Don't think of it just as a comparison. Happiness is a flower {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (live) in the sunshine, and it is not difficult to reach for it. We have a variety of {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (emotion) like sadness, anger, fear, enthusiasm and happiness, and they all appear naturally when something {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(affect) our feelings. So, if we can change our attitude {#blank#}7{#/blank#}things in the world, we can certainly adjust our emotions. It means that we can choose to be happy if we want to, as long as we view everything in {#blank#}8{#/blank#} positive way.

    If we can be happy, why not {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(choice) to be? Let's try together to create a world {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(fill) with smiling faces and sunshine.

    Many people consider old friends to be more important than new ones. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}an old saying goes, “Friends are like wine, the older, the better.” If two pieces of advice {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (give) to solve a problem, one from a new friend and the other from {#blank#}3{#/blank#} old friend, people would prefer the latter one {#blank#}4{#/blank#} the former one, even though the new friend's advice may be better.

    I, however, {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (agree) with the old saying, believing that new friends are not necessarily worse than old friends. It is not always right {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (determine) your friendship by the length(长度) of time.

    Once you call someone a friend, he must be a person who is {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (rely) and whose interests are in common with {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(you). It is mainly his character (性格) and interests that make him your friend. It {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (actual) has little to do with time. People's appearance may change, but their character usually stays the same. Therefore, on this point, there is no {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (different) between old friends and new friends.
