One morning thirty years ago, I walked into the Track Kitchen, a 1where almost everyone came for breakfast. I saw an2chair next to an old short man. He was3a pair of old glasses and a wrinkled (皱巴巴) black hat. "He must be from a poor family." I thought to 4 I asked him, "Could I join you, sir?" He agreed quietly and I sat down to have my5.

    We began a conversation and talked a lot. But we 6 asked each other's name. I guessed that he might have no money and couldn't7something to eat. When I went to the counter and buy a8 cup of coffee.

    "May I get you something?" I asked.

    "A coffee would be nice."

    Then I bought him a cup of coffee. We talked more, and I got him another cup of coffee. 9, I got up to leave, wished him well, and walked to the door. At the door, I met one of my friends. He asked.

    "How did you know Mr. Carpenter?"

    " 10?"

    "The man you were sitting with. He is the CEO of the Channel."

    I could11believe it. I was buying a free breakfast12one of the richest men in town! My few13with Mr. Carpenter changed my life. Now I try to treat(对待) 14with respect(尊重), no matter(无论)what he wears. Don't judge(判断) a man by his15.

    A group of frogs were traveling through the forest, but unluckily two of them fell into a hole. The other frogs tried to help them.

The other frogs 3 saying that they were sure to die. 4, one of the two frogs, who heard what the other frogs were saying, 5. Then he fell down and died.

    The other frog, however, 6 to jump as hard as he could, and at last made it out. When he 7, the other frogs asked, "Didn't you hear us?" The frog, who had a poor 8, explained, "I thought you were encouraging me all the time. "

    The story teaches us a 9：There is power(力量) of live and death in the tongue. An 10 word to those who are down can help them out while a discouraging word can kill them.

Harris was a very small hare(野兔) with very big feet. "Why do I have such big feet, Grandpa?" Harris asked. "All hares have big feet, Harris. I will show you 1 ," said Grandpa.

Grandpa hopped(单脚跳) 2 into the air. Harris copied(模仿) it. He kept practicing over and over again until he could hop as high 3 Grandpa. Then Grandpa took Harris up to the 4 of the mountains. He told Harris, "With your big feet, you can hop to the top of your world."

Grandpa taught Harris lots of life 5 . For example, he taught Harris how to 6 a cool resting place in the earth when the days were hot. One summer afternoon, they stopped to 7 the grass. Harris shouted happily, "Look, Grandpa! My feet can 8 me away from the hot sun! I'm so 9 to have such big feet." As time went by, he got to know the10 of his feet.

One day Grandpa noticed a wolf looking closely at them from a distance (从远处). He kept cool and spoke 11 to Harris, "The most important thing about your big feet is they can 12 you to run very fast." Harris began to run and didn't stop 13 he heard the howl (嚎叫) of the wolf. "Grandpa, why aren't you running with me?" Harris ran back and 14 sadly.

"Little Harris, I'm growing old. It's time for you to learn to live in 15 own world."

Harris kept Grandpa's words in mind and he believed his big feet would take him to the end of the world.

In 2024, the best thing for me was becoming a junior high school student. On September 1, I went to school happily and was {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(准备好的) to start a new life. 

Now I am always very busy, with so many {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(活动) to do and things to learn. But I am not afraid of making {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(错误). In class, I always put up my hand when I have questions. I am not good at {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(化学), so I do a lot of exercise. My teacher tells us to think by {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(我们自己). I keep these good learning habits and I am sure they will help me get {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(更好)in the future. 

In our school, the teachers are kind and knowledgeable(知识渊博的). The students are {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(乐于助人的) and hard-working. We study together in class and play games after class. We have different {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(业余爱好) but we are like brothers and sisters. Our school {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(举办) sports events in our playground every year. This year, I got the {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(第一) prize in a running race. 

All in all, I'm very happy that I am a junior high school student. I really enjoy my junior high school life.
