Players {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(want) for School Sports Day

    School Sports Day is coming. Do you like sports? Do you want to be a {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(run) star? Can you {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (play) basketball, volleyball, soccer or ping-pong? Can you swim{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(good)? I think you are good {#blank#}5{#/blank#}playing them? Do you want to show{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(you) talent(才能) for us? {#blank#}7{#/blank#}are you waiting for(等待)? Come and {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(join) us. Please talk {#blank#}9{#/blank#}Mr. Wang. He {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (have) more information(信息) for you.

    We always remind ourselves that life will be better after we graduate. Then, we are {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (worry) that we may not get a good job. After getting a job, we are wondering {#blank#}2{#/blank#} we can finish all the work well or not. We think we will certainly be happy when all the problems are dealt with.

    We always imagine living a perfect life after we get a nice car and are able to go on a vacation after we retire. But the {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (true) is that there is no better time than right now. Our life will always be {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (fill) with challenges. New problems will appear again after we solve the old {#blank#}5{#/blank#} . Never doubt {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (oneself) when problems come up and it's certain that you can finally manage to get over all the difficulties. It's necessary to realize this and try to be happy every day.

    One of my favorite quotes(引述) from Alfred Souza is that "For a long time it seemed to me that a new and happy life was about to begin. But there were always some difficulties and challenges along the way, something to be dealt with first, some unfinished work, a bill to be paid. Then life would begin. At last I came to understand that these difficulties are just my life."

    This view makes a great difference {#blank#}7{#/blank#} me. It gives me courage to face all the difficulties in an active way instead of {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (run) away from them. It also helps me know that there is no way to happiness. So value every moment that you have now.

    And always remember time waits for no one. You can never afford to waste your time waiting for a better life to come {#blank#}9{#/blank#} the present time is the best. So stop waiting {#blank#}10{#/blank#} you graduate, you get married, you have kids and you get a new car. Enjoy your life now!

    A few weeks ago, I was on vacation with my family in Malaysia. We visited lots of places. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}of the hotels we stayed in was near a Chinatown.

Everything was cheap there, so we did a lot of {#blank#}2{#/blank#}. I was looking for a watch for myself and one for my girlfriend. There were many shops that were selling the same watch—-but for{#blank#}3{#/blank#}prices.

    I finally found the best price, so I bought the watches while my sister and mom were buying other things{#blank#}4{#/blank#}the shop. When it was time to{#blank#}5{#/blank#} I realized I was ten dollars short, so I suggested returning one of the watches .The owner of the shop asked why and I explained I didn't have {#blank#}6{#/blank#} money with me. She smiled and said, "You can take it, but promise me you'll pay back{#blank#}7{#/blank#}!"

    So I asked her what time she would be there the next day and said, "OK, I promise."

    Unluckily, we changed our{#blank#}8{#/blank#}and the new one was much farther away from the Chinatown,{#blank#}9{#/blank#}I still walked all the way to her shop and gave her the money, She smiled and said, "You're{#blank#}10{#/blank#}good person."

    It's so beautiful when people who you don't know trust you.

She is thirty years {#blank#}1{#/blank#} She is {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (we) maths teacher.  She is a very kind teacher in our school and we love {#blank#}3{#/blank#} very much.
