    "Face it, Andy. You sold your soul the day you put on that first pair of Jimmy Choo's." That line from the movie The Devil Wears Prada is an example showing how a shoemaker has become famous in the fashion world.

    Jimmy Choos (Zhou Yangjie) is a native Malaysian of Chinese origin (出身), born in 1961 into a family of shoemakers. He created his first pair of shoes at age 11. His family couldn't pay for his schooling, so he dropped out at a young age. He had to work with his father to support the family. But his dream to be a fashion designer never disappeared, so he did all he could to enter an art college and finally took up a position in the fashion world through his talent and willpower.

    Choo graduated from a college in London and had a small workshop there. He hit the international fashion scene when Vogue magazine described his designs in eight pages in 1988. His work was immediately popular and got love and support from Diana, Princess of Wales.

    Jimmy Choo shoes are known for their very high heels and pointed toes. However, he does some flats and lower-heeled shoes for other women. Choo co-founded Jimmy Choo Ltd. with Tamara Mellon, UK Vogue editor, but left the company in 2001.

    Jimmy Choo shops have opened around the world, so his designs are more accessible to those who want a designer shoe, and can afford his prices. Choo also has a website where shoppers can view his ready-to-wear designs. The brand of Jimmy Choo has been comparable to top brands, like Channel, LV, etc. But it's still young and has a bright future.

    We can't imagine how hard it is for Choo to stand out in the worldwide fashion! He must have made greater efforts and had more difficulties than others. And so he did. So stop complaining about why good luck isn't always falling on you and devote yourselves to your work now.

    We should not use more water than we actually need. If we do, we will not have enough water in the future.{#blank#}1{#/blank#}It is not a difficult question to answer. If we remove more fresh water than nature replaces, we have taken too much.

    Many cities run campaigns (运动) to get people to stop wasting water. They show them ways they can cut back on water use.{#blank#}2{#/blank#}What's more, they carry out programs that offer money to reduce water use. For example, they give people shower heads and toilets that use less water.{#blank#}3{#/blank#}

    Another threat (威胁) to our water supply is pollution. When our sources of fresh water get polluted, we can no longer use this water. This also endangers (危及) the animals that depend on the water.

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#}We can save lots of water by not letting taps (水龙头) run while we brush our teeth or by turning off taps right after washing hands. By collecting cold water when we're taking warm showers, we can also save water.{#blank#}5{#/blank#}In this way, we can make full use of water.

Martin is my youngest son. He likes staying alone and he seldom laughs. As the boy's mother, I was 1 about him. I took him to see the 2 in many hospitals, but it didn't work well. 

Nothing could make him happy except the recycling truck（垃圾回收车） passing by my house. Every afternoon, he raced to the front of the house, waiting 3 the truck. 

When we were late and 4 the truck, Martin would be very disappointed. One day, I stopped the truck and introduced 5 . 

"Nice to meet you, too. I'm Vince, " the driver greeted me in a happy 6 . 

"Your coming is the most exciting moment for my son, "I smiled. 

After knowing our story, he said, "7 you please give me your phone number? Maybe I can send you a message 8 I arrive. "

Then began our friendship with Vince. 

Recently, I said to him, "It's my little boy's birthday tomorrow. Can you do 9 special for him?

The next day, as I was standing by the driveway with Martin, we saw the 10 truck running down the street with a loud beep（嘟嘟声）. Like a superman in a movie, Vince stopped and walked towards us with a box in his hand. 

"Today is your birthday, Martin, and here's a gift. "

He handed the box to my son. Inside, there was a green model truck like his. My son, surprised, looked up 11 and thanked him. 

After chatting for several 12 , he was about to leave for work. I tried to give him some 13 for his help. He kept shaking his head and 14 my money, saying, "Today you, tomorrow me. "

I was deeply moved（感动） by these15 words. And I have been ready to help others whenever I can. You will never know when you're going to be the one that needs help. 

Christmas is coming! I've been busy making films on the mountains of Corrie, so I haven't had a chance 1 the festival. 

I am a director and also a mother of two lovely girls. Things have been 2 crazy that I am unable to arrange the time to attend my little daughter Polly's school concert this week. 

I've not even bad time to start 3 Christmas shopping, so I'm going to set aside some time next week to hit the toy shops. It's easy 4 a gift for Polly because she's an 5 girl who loves things like dolls, but choosing gifts for Emilie, the elder kid, is much 6 . The only gift that she wants is a little dog, 7 I'm not sure whether I'm going to give her one or not. There 8 no time to visit her friends at weekends if she has a dog to look after. 

 9 the evening of December 20, I 10 to take part in a charity event for Cardiac（心脏病）Risk in The Young. Its aim is to raise some money to put scanners（扫描设备）into schools so that teenagers 11 be tested for potential heart problems. It touches my heart a lot because my best friend Stephen 12 of a heart attack a few years ago. On the charity, I also add an item-a lovely dog. I think it will be 13 good gift for my girl and I hope she can take good care of it. 

On Christmas Eve, I put all the gifts I have bought into my daughters' room 14 . I hope they can see them 15 they get up. I also imagine the happy smiles on their faces. 

There are usually too many buses and cars before the Spring Festival. So Wang, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} man from Lu' an, Anhui, China, went back home in a special way this Spring Festival. He flew a small plane with his 7-year-old daughter to {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (they) hometown.

Wang works as a flight instructor (飞行教练), {#blank#}3{#/blank#} he often travels by flying plane himself. This trip from Lu' an to his hometown, Lixin village, {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (take) about sixty minutes. If he drives a car, it usually takes around three hours. It's about two hours {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (early) than traveling by plane. {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (lucky), there is a large place near his hometown and he could land (降落) there.

Wang put the video of this trip {#blank#}7{#/blank#} the Internet. Some people showed {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (worry) about the safety (安全) of flying a small plane with a child. But in Wang's words, he began {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (fly) with his daughter even when she was four. Many other people admired (羡慕) Wang and his daughter so much {#blank#}10{#/blank#} they wished to fly back home in this special way, too.
