    Stephen walked out of the 9 and smiled happily. What 10 he do this Christmas?

    My life is always filled with sadness and little joy. However, no matter what happens, I can always face it bravely.

    Last year, I couldn't believe the1that I was allowed to enter the only key high school in my hometown. Then I rushed to my home and told my parents. But my father didn't seem as2as I was.  He just kept smoking without saying a word and my mother put her head down and couldn't help3.

    I knew very well what my family was4. My mum had been ill in bed for 2 years.  We lived a hard life and I couldn't continue my schooling.  I felt so upset but I could say5to my parents. I decided to help my father with his work6my family.

    To my surprise, things completely changed7the beginning of the new term. My head teacher came to my family with some money, which had been8by my schoolmates. He encouraged me," Always have a dream. " With tears in my eyes, I stepped into the key high school.

    I have been studying hard since I entered the high school.  Whenever I meet difficulties, I always9my teacher and schoolmates. I have a college dream and I must work hard for it, no matter10hard life is. Just as a great man says, "When one door shuts, another opens in life."

Jean Champollion was very good at languages. He learnt twelve languages in his life. When he was eighteen , he began {#blank#}1{#/blank#} history(历史) at university. He was younger than many of his students.

Jean was very interested in ancient Egypt and in 1821he began to study the Rosetta Stone(罗塞塔石碑). A group of soldiers found this stone at Rosetta when Jean was still a young boy. It was under the sand for {#blank#}2{#/blank#}years before the soldiers dug it up (挖出来). There was a lot of strange writing on the stone. The writing was a message in three languages. One of the languages was ancient Egyptian. No one could read it at that time. But Jean {#blank#}3{#/blank#}its secret.

The ancient Egyptian was not a language with letters and words like English. It was full of {#blank#}4{#/blank#}. According to many experts (专家) , these signs showed things and ideas. Jean did not completely agree. He thought some of them {#blank#}5{#/blank#} sounds. He found 15 signs of this kind in his study of Rosetta Stone. Today, it is possible to understand ancient Egyptian from 4, 000 years ago because of Jean's discovery (发现).
