It was Mary's birthday. She received a letter from her uncle1  was a farmer.

“Dear Mary,” the letter said. “Happy birthday . I am sending you some2 as your birthday present.They will arrive tomorrow. I hope you will like them. Best wishes, Uncle Toby. ”

  Mary liked eating eggs and 3 .When the chickens arrived the day, they were in a box. Mary was very 4 .She took the box off the truck and began to carry it into her garden. 5 , the box was heavy and she dropped it . The chickens all ran out .They ran everywhere, into the road , into the shops , even into the next street. It6Mary many hours to find them and take them back to her garden.

  A few days later uncle came.”Did the chickens arrive 7?” he asked Mary.”Yes,Uncle Toby.”Mary said.” 8 I had lots if trouble with them. I dropped the box. It broke and the chickens ran everywhere.I spent the whole afternoon9them.”“Did you find them all?” her uncle asked.”I hope so,”Mary replied.”I caught eleven of them.””That's very interesting,”her uncle said 10 a smile,”because I only sent you six.”

Years ago, I lived ina building. The next building was only a few feet away from mine. There was awoman who lived there. I often saw her reading by her window in the afternoon. Afew months later, l began to find that her window was dirty. I couldn't see herclearly. I said to myself, "Why doesn't she clean the window? It reallylooks terrible!"

One morning. I decidedto clean my room, including cleaning the window. Late in the afternoon when Ifinished the cleaning. I sat down by the window for a rest. What a surprise! Icould see her clearly. Her window was clean! Then I knew that I looked at herthrough my dirty window.

That was an importantlesson for me. From then on. whenever I wanted to judge(评判) someone, I asked myself first," Am I looking at him throughmy dirty window?" Then I tried to clean the window of my own world so thatI could see the world clearly.

Alex set his lunch tray on the table near his friend Leo. "Trade you some fries for some pretzels" Alex said. 

"Deal," said Leo, taking his bag of pretzels out of bis lunchbox. 

Alex noticed a folded piece of paper at the bottom of Leo's lunchbox. 

"What's that?" asked Daniel, another boy in their class. 

Before Leo could answer, Daniel grabbed the paper. He unfolded it and read in a loud voice: "Dear Leo, I hope you have a great day. Love. Mom."

Daniel snorted. "Your mom puts notes in your lunchbox?"

"Yes," Leo said. 

Daniel read the note again, to himself. It almost looked as if he wanted to keep it.

"Give it back to Leo," said Alex. 

"Well, who wants a note anyway?" Daniel said. 

"I do," said Leo. 

Alex liked getting notes too. 

Daniel tossed the note and it fell to the floor. 

Alex picked it up. He handed it back to Leo, who put it into his pocket. 

On the bus that afternoon, Alex thought about what had happened. 

Alex's older brother, Mateo, arrived home just after Alex did. "How was your day, little dude?" Mateo asked. 

"A boy in my class was mean to Leo," Alex said. He explained the way Daniel had acted. 

Mateo shook his head. "How would Daniel like it if people picked on him for getting a note?"

"Daniel never gets notes," Alex said. Suddenly, he had an idea. "That's it! I know how to help Leo and Daniel."

Alex explained his idea to Mateo. Mateo agreed to help, and they worked on the plan all afternoon. 

At lunchtime the next day, Alex hurried to the cafeteria. He set out 23 folded pieces of paper on a table by the entrance. Each piece of paper had the name of a classmate on it. 

"What are these?" asked Mira. 

"We all have notes," said Sabrina. 

Alex watched as Daniel picked up the note with his name on it. Alex knew that the note said Daniel,  ▲  Have a great day.

Alex saw Daniel smile as he put the note into his pocket. 

"Great idea, Alex," said Leo. 

"Now everyone knows how it feels to get a lunch note," Alex said.

Dear Peter,

How time flies! Everyone has a new plan at the beginning of the year.

Yours,

Li Hua

Mary is studying in a middle school in Shanghai. She likes Chinese {#blank#}1{#/blank#} very much because it is delicious. Today is the Dragon Boat Festival. Mary is watching the dragon boat race with {#blank#}2{#/blank#} classmates Alan and Henry. 

At noon, they all feel {#blank#}3{#/blank#} so they take a bus to a Chinese restaurant. They want to order (点餐) some Chinese food for {#blank#}4{#/blank#}. "I don't want to eat hamburgers. They are not {#blank#}5{#/blank#} for my health," Alan says. "I'd like some rice and chicken. What about you, Mary?" "Many Chinese say if you eat a dumpling with a coin (硬币), you can get good luck," says Mary. "We will have{#blank#}6{#/blank#}important test next Monday, so I'd like to have some Chinese {#blank#}7{#/blank#} to have good luck." 

"Haha! Mary," Alan says. "You can only eat them {#blank#}8{#/blank#} Chinese New Year." "Oh, I know, but now I want to{#blank#}9{#/blank#}some dumplings," Mary says. "And what would you like to eat, Henry?" 

"I'd like noodles," says Henry. "And I'd like some fish, too. It shows you will have lots of money {#blank#}10{#/blank#}fish sounds ‘yu' in Chinese." 

Donna Brown, a 14- year- old girl, was very ill. She had a bad heart. "Donna must have a new heart. " Her doctor said, "or she will die soon. " Felipe Green, Donna's good friend, heard the news, he was very worried about (担心) Donna. He didn't want her to die. He decided to give his heart to her because he knew he was going to die. 

Then he talked to his mother about his idea. But his mother didn't pay much attention to him. "Felipe is just playing a joke (玩笑), " his mother thought. In fact, Felipe often had terrible headaches(头疼) and never told his mother about them. 

One morning, he woke up with great pain and he couldn't breathe (呼吸). The Greens hurried to send him to the hospital. The doctors had bad news for the Greens. "Felipe's brain is dead. " The Greens were very sad. But Felipe's mother remembered (记住) his words. She told the doctors to give Felipe's heart to Donna. The doctors did several tests (测试). They said they could give Felipe's heart to Donna. 

Everything was successful. Felipe's heart was beating (跳动) in Donna's chest (胸膛), but Donna didn't know it. The doctors and her parents didn't tell her until (直到) she was stronger. Donna was very thankful to the Greens. Every time the Greens saw Donna, they thought of Felipe. Donna has Felipe's heart in her. That gives them great peace.
