A big company wanted to find someone to work for them. Lots of young college students came to {#blank#}1{#/blank#} for the job, but only a small part of them were left. And this time, the company didn't plan to choose the right persons as usual.

    Here came the day when they took the final interview. A big box {#blank#}2{#/blank#} of papers was placed on the way to the interview room, and a few papers were lying around the box.

    The first student came. He hurried along the way to take the interview. “Who put this {#blank#}3{#/blank#} in the middle of the road?” the student said to himself, but he did not try to move the box away. Instead, he passed around the box and continued his way.

The second student came along and did the same thing. Then another came, and another. All of them complained (抱怨) about the box but {#blank#}4{#/blank#} of them tried to move it. What's worse, someone even stepped (踩) on the papers and left without having a look at the things on the ground.

    Half an hour later, a thin young man with glasses came. He was also {#blank#}5{#/blank#} those who were left to take the interview. He saw the box and the papers around it. Without thinking twice, he {#blank#}6{#/blank#} and began to pick up the papers and put them into the box. Then he managed to move the box to the side. To his great {#blank#}7{#/blank#}, he found an invitation under the box. On it were the following words, “Congratulations, young man! You are the {#blank#}8{#/blank#} person we are looking for! Would you like to join us?”

      Sometimes, you see, helping others is helping yourself.

Lucy： Hello, Mary, you look really tired. What's the matter?

Mary： I didn't go to sleep {#blank#}1{#/blank#} midnight last night so I didn't get enough sleep.

Lucy： Sorry to hear that. Why don't you go to sleep {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (early) tonight?

Mary： I hope so, {#blank#}3{#/blank#} I have two after—school classes today. So I can only start {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (study) after dinner.

Lucy： Maybe you should tell your parents {#blank#}5{#/blank#} you can't do so many things.

Mary： I did, but they think it's important that I take more after—school {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (class).

Lucy： Well, they {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (possible) want you to get into a good senior high school.

Mary： Yes, I guess that's {#blank#}8{#/blank#} reason.

Lucy： You should talk to your parents again. Explain that you need to get enough sleep to stay {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (health).

Mary： That's a good idea. OK, I'll try to talk to {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (they) again.

    Mary worked as a nurse in a hospital. One day, a patient {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(bring) to her hospital.  After checking the patient, the doctors said he was {#blank#}2{#/blank#} danger and should have an operation at once. But the {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(patient) family didn't have enough money to pay the operation bill.  They were worried and asked {#blank#}4{#/blank#}the patient could have the operation first, as he was {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(serious) ill .But the doctor disagreed.

    Mary had just arrived to work and heard about the situation. She made {#blank#}6{#/blank#}surprising decision. She said she would use her golden ring {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(pay) his bill. Thanks to her help, the patient was saved in time. Although the ring was {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(she) only piece of valuable jewelry(首饰), Mary donated(捐赠) it to save the patient, even though he was a {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(strange) to her. Offering help to others can {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(make) the world more beautiful. Let's try our best to help those who are in trouble.

    Mr. White {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (work) in an office. One day, while he{#blank#}2{#/blank#} (have) lunch, a friend visited him. They were very glad and talked a lot. Then they looked at the clock on the wall. It was time {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (go) to the office. He had to say goodbye to his friend and {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (leave). It {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (rain) heavily and the streets were wet. He drove too fast {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (see) the red light. He could not stop his car and hit a car in front of his. An old man got out and shouted angrily," What are you doing? Do you want to hit me to death?" "I'm sorry, sir," said Mr. White. "I didn't find the lights turning." Then he {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (bring) out a bottle of wine and gave it to the old man. "It's very cold today, sir," said Mr. White. "Please drink a little, and then you'll be warmer. "The old man drank some wine and became happy. "I {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (feel) much better now. Why not {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (drink) some?" he asked. "I can't drink anything now, sir," answered Mr. White. "I'm {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (wait) for the policeman to come. Only drunkards (酒鬼) cause accidents, you know." What do you think of Mr. White? Is he responsible?
