     Farley worked for the Canadian government. One day，he was1 to learn more about wolves. Do wolves kill lots of caribou (北美驯鹿)? Do they kill people?

     They gave him lots of food and clothes and guns. Then they put him on a plane and took him to 2 . They put him down and went away. There were no houses or people in this place. But there were lots of animals and lots of wolves.

People tell terrible stories about wolves. They say wolves like to kill and eat people. Farley remembered these stories，and he was 3. He had his gun with him 4 .

     Then one day， he saw a group of wolves. There was a mother wolf with four baby wolves. A father wolf and another young wolf lived with them.

     Farley watched these wolves every day. The mother was a very 5 mother. She gave milk to her babies. She gave them lessons about life. They learned how to 6 food. The father wolf got food for the mother. The young    wolf 7 the children. They were a nice， happy family — wolf family! Farley did not need his8anymore. In a short time，he got on well with the family. Farley watched them for five months. He learned that many stories about the wolves were 9. Wolves do not eat people， and they do not eat many large animals. And he also learned bad things about men. It was men who killed many caribou and wolves.

     Later， Farley wrote a book about wolves. He wanted people to10 them and not to kill them.

Duc-Hwan wasn't excited about going to the swim team's awards ceremony(颁奖典礼).

"I don't see why we have to be here, Dad,"he said. "It's not like I'm receiving an award.     ▲    "

"Not true,"said Dad. "You won third place at the last sports meeting."

"I can't imagine joining the team next year," Duc-Hwan said as he had his lunch.

"Hey, Duc-Hwan!" It was Coach Andy."Hurry up and finish eating. It's time for the awards."

"Yeah, Coach, okay," said Duc-Hwan, trying to sound as if he didn't care.

"You're part of the Dolphins Swim Team, and we're about to begin."

Duc-Hwan clapped (鼓掌) every time a teammate got an award. The ceremony seemed so long. Suddenly, Dad pushed Duc-Hwan's knee. "Coach just called your name."

Duc-Hwan looked around. Everyone was looking at him. "Are you going to come up here?"asked the coach. Duc-Hwan rose slowly and made his way to Coach Andy. "Duc-Hwan, this is the only award decided by a team vote(投票). I think it's the most important award. You showed your resolve (决心). Even when you came in last, you never gave up. I hope you'll join the team next year."

Duc-Hwan looked at the crowd quickly. Everyone was standing and clapping. Duc-Hwan smiled.

"Mummy，I don't like you，" my three﹣year﹣old daughter said.

"Okay…is that because you love me？" I asked.

"No，you're not lovely."

That night，as I washed my face，I looked for a little longer time in the mirror — not because I was hurt by my daughter's1 ，but because I noticed there was no light in my eyes.

I took out a pen and started writing a list — a list to2 myself；a list to put sparkles back into my eyes.I once made many lists but seldom completed anything.This time would be3 !

The first goal on my list I wanted to achieve was joining a Polar Plunge （极地冬泳） to raise money for the Special Olympics.On that day，when I4 on my 1980s workout clothes，Jenny smiled，"Mummy，just maybe some light came back to my eyes.

When coming out of the cold lake，I felt happy and proud. I kept screaming， "I5

it!" But one of the most exciting parts of the day was when I stood in front of my6 ，which was taped on the refrigerator door.I crossed item number one.With that，I began to take back my life.

Everyone taking part in the Polar Plunge received a shirt. Whenever I wore it，Jenny asked， "Is that your Polar Plunge clothing？" I answered proudly, " Yes!" " I was happy she remembered I jumped into a 7 lake, and that she wanted to do activities with me.

With each goal8 off the list，piece of myself is returning. Not only am I showing my family it's important to dream，but I'm showing myself that I'm worth it.

I never think that I can make a movie by myself one day. And a {#blank#}1{#/blank#}（机会） came last summer. I just finished my short film Summer. I took many film-making lessons in the college, {#blank#}2{#/blank#}（尤其） short film-making ones.

I was Dawn in the movie. He couldn't see anything but he never gave up the hope of living. In the story, Dawn worked hard with his friend Annie. I had to act {#blank#}3{#/blank#}（没有） closing my eyes. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}（然而）, I could never do that at the beginning. So I {#blank#}5{#/blank#}（练习） over and over again at night. At last, I got pretty good at it!

We all worked hard to make the movie. Our teacher was very {#blank#}6{#/blank#}（满意的）. I still remembered the act of showing a traffic {#blank#}7{#/blank#}（事故）. These actresses had to fall to the ground for many times. It was about the {#blank#}8{#/blank#}（第二十） time that they finally got right. It was very hot and dry, but we never gave up.

We all cried when we saw it at New Times Cinema. I thought it was {#blank#}9{#/blank#}（令人激动的）moment in my life. I will never {#blank#}10{#/blank#} （忘记） this summer.

 Emma dreamed of writing a {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(小说). She had some ideas but wasn't sure how to begin. She imagined a story where characters would {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(对待) each other with kindness and respect.

 At the {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(中心的) part of her story, she planned to show how friends support each other. She wisely decided to {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(避免) making everything too easy for her characters. She wanted to{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(划分) the story into chapters(章节), each showing different moments of life.

 In one chapter, a character {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(哭) after losing something special, feeling completely{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(空洞的) inside. Everyone around seemed joyful {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(除了) this one person. By the end,

Emma hoped to show that there is always hope and {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(大量) of love around. She believed her book would be {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(广泛地) enjoyed by readers looking for encouragement.
