Last Saturday, Tony went to see Benny. But he didn't know1Benny lived. On the way, he2in front of a yellow house, and asked an old woman the3to Benny's house. “His house is not far from my house,” said the woman. “It's behind the trees. But you can't get there 4.You can go there by bus. It'll5you hours to get there6foot.” “What's wrong with her?” Tony 7.“I can see Benny's house from here now. It's behind the8.” Then Tony walked to the other side of the trees. He found the old woman was9. There was a river in front of him, and he couldn't see a boat. The house was on the other side of the10.

    A young man was walking in the desert. He felt very 1. Just then he suddenly found a spring of delicious and clear water. The water was cool and sweet for a man who had 2it for such a long time. He drank a lot, and then he 3 his bottle so that he could bring some back to his village and gave it to his teacher who had taught him in middle school.

    After a four-day 4, he gave the water to the old man and he took a deep drink, smiled warmly and 5his student for the sweet water. The young man returned to his home with a happy heart.

    Later, the teacher let another student taste the water. He spat it out at once, saying it was6. The student said the water had become bad because the bottle was too old.

    The student asked his teacher, "Master, the water was bad and it was bitter. Why did you 7 to him that you liked it?" The teacher replied, "You only tasted the water 8 I tasted the gift. The water which has been put in loving and kindness is not 9water." Nothing could be 10 than love.

    Two boys were walking down a road. They noticed a man 1 in the field. The younger boy looked at his elder friend and said, "Let's hide his shoes 2 he won't be able to find them. It must be funny!"

    The elder boy thought for a moment and said, "The man looks3 . Have you seen his clothes? Let's do this instead: Let's hide a silver coin in each shoe and 4 how he deals with them."

    The younger boy 5. They put a silver coin in each shoe and hid nearby. Then the farmer finished his work and came out. He put on a shoe and immediately felt the money 6his foot. He held the coin in his hand, looked at it in 7 and wanted to know who had put it in his shoe. Then he 8 to see who had done it, but no one was there. He then put on the other 9and felt the second coin. The man was so 10 when he found another one in his shoe.

    He then dropped to his knees and said 11 . The boys could hear it as they were very  12 . He said that his sick wife and his boys were in need of food. He was thankful for the 13from an unknown person.

    After the farmer 14, the boys came out from their hiding place and slowly walked home. They felt happy and learned how wonderful it was to15 others.

My name is David. I'm a student from China. Now I'm talking with my classmates about colors in our houses. 

Anna lives with her grandparents and parents. In her house，there are many red things，like red desks and chairs. That's because the old people in her family like red color. They want red things to bring （带来） good luck to them. 

In Peter's house，we can see blue color in different places. That's his favorite color. His bed，computer and bookcase are blue. Peter says blue makes him calm down （平静）. 

Kevin's house is a little different. We can only see white things in it，like TV，bed and doors. White color looks clean. 

Speaking of my house，there are different colors in it. There is a white table，yellow chairs and a blue bookcase. These things make my house beautiful （美丽）. 

Miss Gao is an experienced teacher in a school. This term she is the head teacher of a new 1 . She finds the students make too much noise in class. So she decides to change the 2 . 

One day, Miss Gao asked, "Boys and girls, what do you think of 3 ?" The students shouted, "We don't like them. "Really?" Miss Gao said with a smile, "OK! Today let's talk about rules."

Then she played two videos. One was about a 4 class and the other was about a noisy class. After 5 them, Miss Gao asked, "Which class do you prefer?" "Of course the first one! They can lean more knowledge," Some students said. "Right! Why can they do that?" the teacher asked again. But the whole class were 6 at this moment. 

"Actually, it's the rules that make them do so. Do you 7 me?" Miss Gao said. Then more videos about

the roads, the stations were played for them. Miss Gao explained, "You see, things work 8 when we have rules. If we don't have rules on the roads, we will be in danger. Everyone could be in lots of 9 without rules. Can you make your own rules now?" Ten minutes later, the students listed eight rules for themselves. 

Finally, Miss Gao said, "No rules, no standards. Rules help people get along better together. Rules are 10 for our safety and happiness. So rules are very important in our life. We should follow rules wherever we are!"
