One a snowy evening, a rich lady was standing by the road. She was very worried. Her{#blank#}1{#/blank#} had broken down. Just then a poor man named Robert came. He was on his way back home from work as usual.
The lady thought, “Is the man going to help me? He looks very cold and hungry. ”But to her {#blank#}2{#/blank#} , he stopped and said with a smile, “What's wrong, madam?” The lady told him what was happening.
After forty minutes, the car was at last fixed by Robert. The lady wanted to pay him.
“No, that's {#blank#}3{#/blank#} , madam.” he said, “I was just helping someone in need. If you really want to pay me back, I hope you {#blank#}4{#/blank#} see someone in trouble, please give him a hand.” A few minutes later, the lady saw a shabby house by the road. She {#blank#}5{#/blank#} Robert's words, so she stopped. The hostess warmly asked her in. The lady could see that was a {#blank#}6{#/blank#} family and they needed help. When the hostess was making tea in the kitchen, the lady {#blank#}7{#/blank#} 500 dollars on the table and went away quietly. Robert came home later than before, thinking how hard their life was. Their {#blank#}8{#/blank#} was to be born the next month but there wasn't {#blank#}9{#/blank#} money. His wife went up to him, gave him a kiss and said softly, “Don't worry, dear! Everything's going to be all right. A stranger has helped us out. ”
Let's always be ready to help others because helping others is helping {#blank#}10{#/blank#} .

      Long long ago, people lived in a clean world. There were no modern {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (machine). The air was fresh. However, life today has {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (bring) many new problems. One of the {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (big) is the environmental pollution. Noise pollution makes us hear more loudly and get {#blank#}4{#/blank#} ['æŋɡri] more easily. Light pollution is {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (harm) to birds. Air pollution is the most serious {#blank#}6{#/blank#} ( [kaɪnd]) of pollution. It is bad for all living things.

      Now, in order to protect our world, we need to do some important things. For {#blank#}7{#/blank#}, we should use both sides of paper and reuse plastic bags. Everyone should care for {#blank#}8{#/blank#} [waɪld] animals and plant more trees. Of course, easier said than done. {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (action) speak louder than words. If everyone knows the {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (important) of protecting the environment, the world will become more beautiful.
