    My friends and I joined a two-day survival training course in the mountains. The first day was really 1 there was so much to do! Arriving at the campsite, We were divided into group and given a tent, some food, a2 and a compass, Sunning next to a small river, Fanny 3 camping in the grassy area nearby. However, our instructor, Mr. Lee, pointed out that it might flood if it rained. In the end, we found a higher area. Putting up the tent was very hard. Luckily Mr. Lee helped us a lot.

    By the time we had put up the tent, everyone was really hungry." We wouldn't have got this hungry if we had brought some snacks, "Peter said. We all told him to4 complaining and help us start a fire to cook our food 5. Realizing we were having trouble making the fire, he finally6.

    The next day started early, Woken by a strange noise, Peter went to see what was happening." some cows have eaten our breakfast! " he shouted.

    "That's all because you didn't 7 the food properly last night," said Mr. Lee.

    Worried that Mr. Lee was angry with us, we tried very hard on our next task-using the map and compass to find a secret location. We made it to the location8 the other groups did. We all felt very proud of 9.

    The survival training course was a great 10.Now I feel I could survive anywhere!

    Once my father and I went to see a circus(马戏团). A family was standing in front of us1  for tickets. The family had eight children. Their clothes were not expensive but they were clean. They were talking about the clowns(小丑) and elephants excitedly.

    "I want ten tickets, eight for children and two for adults(成人)."said the father to the ticket lady. The ticket lady told him the 2. When he heard that, the man couldn't believe his ears. He asked again," How much?" The ticket lady said again. The father looked 3 . Clearly, he didn't have 4money. My dad took a $ 20 bill and dropped it on the ground. Then he 5 the bill, and said to the man, "Sir, this fell out of your pocket." The man knew what was going on. He looked into my dad's eyes and took the bill." Thank you, thank you, Sir. This 6means a lot to me and my family." We didn't go to the circus that night, but we didn't feel sorry for it at all.   72    .

    "Doctor Johnson, I don't want to eat now, that's because nothing has a taste for me. It's been like this for long. In fact, I didn't have a delicious meal after I caught a terrible cold last month, What can I do?"

    "Here are some medicine, Mrs. Harris. Take three pills three times a day for seven days and come back and see me. But remember, don't eat anything during the week, or you can just drink some water."

    Next week an upset Mrs. Harris came into Dr. Johnson's office. "Doctor! I'm doing it just as you told me, but delicious food is still tasteless for me. I don't know what was in those pills, but the problem is worse! What do you have to say for yourself?"

    "But when and how do you take these pills?" asked the doctor.

    "At first, I took these pills three times a day, just before dinner," continued the woman, "but these pills are too bitter (苦). So I had to take these pills after three meals."

    "Calm down, Mrs. Harris," said the doctor soothingly. "Now that we've fixed your taste problem, It's OK now, we'll work on your hearing!"

My mother is 82 years old. Each week I take my mother out to do shopping and visit the doctor，because she has difficulty in1 . She is unable to express herself clearly. 

Last week she walked to a nearby store to buy some small things by herself，because I was busy. When she went to2 for her things，she found that she was short of three dollars. The only way to pay for the goods was to3 a cup. By dropping it，she was able to buy the new total with the cash she had. 

At this store，people looked around and chose their own goods. My mother was putting her things into shopping bags4 without talking to others. Suddenly a5 came up to her and said， "Here is the cup that you put back. " Then she6 my mother the cup. My mother asked for the woman's name and7 so that she could repay her by post （邮寄）. But the woman told her the cup was her gift. 

My mother was8 . The next day，she decided to go back to the store and give the worker a five﹣dollar bill to keep on hand. When the9 thing happened to someone else unexpectedly，the worker could use the bill. 

Whoever you are，you should thank for the act of10 . That not only help others，but may help yourself one day. 

Steve, a twelve-year-old boy, lives in a small town. He has a round face. He isn't tall or short. He is kind of thin. 

When Steve was one month old, his mom found he couldn't see anything. She took him to many hospitals, but it didn't help Steve much. After that, Steve's mom always told him what things around him were like. With his mom's help, Steve knew everything around him slowly.

It's not far from his home to school. It only takes him about ten minutes to walk to school. He likes all the subjects and studies hard. His teachers and classmates always help him. He doesn't go home for lunch. His mother always cooks his favorite food and takes it to school.

Steve likes playing the piano and he started to learn it two years ago. Now he is in a music club and he can play many songs. Every day, Steve plays the piano for his mom after school. He wants to be a great musician and play the piano for more people. "I know it is difficult for me to be a musician, but I will work hard for it. It will come true some day," said Steve.

Andy opens his eyes to the warm sun of a new day. He jumps out of his 1 and runs to his mom's room.

"Get up!Mommy!"Andy calls out 2 !"Do you know what day today is?"

His mom 3 ,"Of course I do. It's my favorite 4 of the year."She then takes out a big 5 ."Happy Birthday, Andy!"

A new cool guitar is in the box! Andy is so 6 . He picks(拿起) it up and starts7 . But it doesn't sound so good. Andy 8 the guitar. Mom picks it back up and says,"Andy, 9 again. You will never know how good you will be if (如果)you 10 now."

Andy doesn't want to spend(花费) much time 11 it. But he doesn't want to let his mom down. So he tries again. It sounds just as bad. He gets a little 12 !"Andy", says his mom,"Never give up, and you'll see that you 13 do it."Andy tries again and again. At last, he plays a very beautiful 14 . He makes it with hard work!

"Thank you so much for 15 me this guitar and believing(相信) in me, Mommy."Andy's mom says,"That's what moms are for!"
