Once upon a time, there was a teacher and his student lying down under a big grass area. Suddenly, the student asked the teacher, “Teacher, I wonder 1 I can find my soul mate（灵魂伴侣）? Can you please tell me?”

    2 for a second, then the teacher answered, “Well, it's a pretty hard and easy question.”

    The student 3 hard.

    The teacher continued, “Look that way, there is a lot of grass there. You just walk there but please 4 walk backwards(向后地), just walk straight ahead. On your 5, try to find a beautiful grass and pick it up and then give it to me. But just one.”

    The student replied, “OK ，wait for 6.” Then he walked straight ahead to the grass field.

    A few minutes later the student came back.

    The teacher said, “Um, I don't see any beautiful 7 on your hand.”

    The student explained, “On my journey, I 8 a few beautiful grass, but I thought that I would find a 9one, so I didn't pick it up. But I didn't realize that I was at the 10of the field, and I hadn't picked up any 11you told me not to go back so I didn't go back.”

     “That's what happened in 12life,” the teacher told the student.

    What is the message of this story?

    Grass is people 13 you. Beautiful Grass is people that draw your attention. Grass field is time.

    In looking for your soul mate or your right job, please don't always 14and hope that there will be a better one. By doing that, you'll 15 your lifetime ,because “Time Never Goes Back.” So the moral (寓意)of the story is LOVE & take the chance that you have now! Treasure it, don't wait until you lose it.

He often puts some chocolate in the milk 3 breakfast, the juice for lunch, even the soup for supper. His mother has to put4chocolate in his bag before he goes to school.

    "Chocolate, please." answered Bruce.

My uncle is a reporter in a TV station. Yesterday he {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(邀请) me to visit the station. It was my lucky day! My uncle {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(带领) me around the station. He told me to {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(避免) making any noise, because some programmes were on air. The station is big and beautiful. There are many studios in it. To my big {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(惊奇), I met my favourite presenter. She {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (似乎) to be more beautiful. She was reading {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (文章;报道) of the latest {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(国际的) news in English. In other studios, some presenters were doing {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (采访); some were answering the calls from {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(听众). They were all very busy. I really hope to have a {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(兼职的) job in the TV station to experience their work one day. From now on, I will try my best to study for it.

A seventeen-year-old girl has caught many people's eyes these days. Her excellent performance at the 19th Asian Games 1 many people. Do you know who the girl is? She is the China's rising shooting star Huang Yuting.

Born in 2006, Taizhou, Zhejiang Province, Huang Yuting began shooting in the summer of 2016 when the district's Youth Sports School rifle team 2 good players at her school. Lin Kehan, her coach, said, "We chose Huang Yuting because of her great stability. Besides, her 3 performance in the selection (选拔) test for team members made us amazed." Following her successful selection into the summer training camp, Huang Yuting showed her great 4 in shooting quickly.

Spending 3 years in the Huangyan Youth Sports School rifle team, she went into the Zhejiang Provincial Shooting Team in 2020. After training 5 , she became one of the best players in the women's 10m air rifle event. At 2022 ISSF World Championships, Huang won one silver medal (奖牌) and got a 6 to the 2024 Paris Olympics for the Chinese team. This year, she also won two golds in the women's 10m air rifle at the Asian Games.

"Winning the competition this time means that the preparation before has 7 , which brings me great joy and surprise." Huang Yuting said. "We take every event 8 and try our best to make every shot perfect." Although there were lots of 9 before the competition, she faced them bravely and made it finally.

In fact, a calm (冷静的) state of mind, self-confidence and hard work are the 10 . Talent alone doesn't make sure of success. Whatever we do, we must keep out feet on the ground.

 Last month we {#blank#}1{#/blank#} ( ask) our students about their free time activities. Our questions were about exercise, use of the Internet and {#blank#}2{#/blank#}( watch) TV. Here are the results. 

 We found that only fifteen percent {#blank#}3{#/blank#} our students exercise every day. Forty— five percent exercise four to six hours a week. Twenty percent exercise only one to three times a week. And twenty percent do not exercise at all. 

 We all know that many students often go online, but we were {#blank#}4{#/blank#} ( surprise) that ninety percent of them use the Internet every day. The other ten percent use it at least three or four times a week. Most students use it for {#blank#}5{#/blank#}( funny) not for homework. 

 The answers {#blank#}6{#/blank#} our questions about watching TV were also interesting. Only two percent of the students watch TV one to three times a week. Thirteen percent watch TV {#blank#}7{#/blank#}( fourth) to six times a week. And eighty— five percent watch TV every day! Although many students like to watch sports, game shows are the {#blank#}8{#/blank#}( many) popular. 

 It's good to relax by {#blank#}9{#/blank#} ( use) the Internet or watching game shows, but we think the best way to relax is through exercise. It's healthy for the mind and the body. Exercise such as playing sports is fun, and you can spend time with your friends and family as you play together. And remember, " Old habits {#blank#}10{#/blank#}( death) hard. " So start exercising before it's too late. 

I can't forget that day. It was a cold snowy morning. The {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(天空) was gray and dark. I got up early and went to a new school, which is the most {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(著名的) one in the foreign city. I was walking alone and worried about lots of things because it was the first time for me to stay {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(在国外).

It was early, so it was {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(寂静的) outside. Suddenly a girl who was riding her bike got into trouble. She fell off the bike and tried to get up. But she failed. Without thinking, I went over and {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(设法完成) to help her to stand up. She said" Thank you" with a smile and then {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(离开). Her words warmed me a lot.

Finally, I got to school. The teacher introduced me to the whole class. Then he asked me to sit {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(在······旁边) a girl. I felt so nervous. Soon the bell rang for the geography class. Their textbooks were different! Just when I wanted to ask the teacher for help, a geography book with a national {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(旗帜) on its cover was in front of me." Let's share," the friendly girl next to me said." Hi, I'm Carrie. I'm {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(加拿大人)." To my surprise, it was the girl that I helped this morning. Later on, we became good friends.

From that I learned: to help others is actually to help {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(我们自己). What life teaches us is not only knowledge but also experience.
