When I was in school, I volunteered to work in a hospital for some time.

On one visit, I carefully entered a dark room to find an elderly man {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (lie) in bed. I firstly thought he was sleeping. When I moved {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (close), however, I realized he was very much awake. He wanted to communicate something; but I couldn't make sense of what he {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (say). 0He seemed quite weak, and I couldn't tell if he was in pain, or just frightened. I knew nothing about him, and I felt totally helpless. He clearly didn't want me {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (leave) him, but I felt so lost and uncomfortable that I had to leave the room after only a couple of {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (minute).

The next time I was at {#blank#}6{#/blank#} hospital and saw him again, I was certain he didn't remember me. But he {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (immediate) said, "I remember you. , You gave me hope in my darkest hour that evening!" I was so {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(amaze) that I didn't know how to answer.

In the short moment of my staying there, I did nothing at all. {#blank#}9{#/blank#} surprisingly he found in me something he needed, just because I was there.

I have thought about this thing often over the past years. {#blank#}10{#/blank#} makes me want to offer whatever kindness I can to others, and I try to make it out and appreciate (赞赏) it.

A woman works in a factory and1her pay at the end of2week. One Saturday she got her pay and counted the3. Suddenly she found that it was wrong: there were five pounds4than she should get. She5the money in her pocket and said nothing6others. A week went by and it was pay day7. But this time there were five pounds less instead. She was so angry8she went to see the boss. The boss said to her. "Didn't you9there was a mistake last week?" But she explained: "For one mistake, I can 10my eyes, but for two mistakes, no, I cannot."

When I was about fourteen , I had a lot of freckles(雀斑). I was so upset. I tried different ways to cover the freckles, but my mother would shake her head and say ,"▲"I felt sad hearing it .

My cousin Jessica had a peaches and cream complexion(白里透红的肤色) I couldn't help thinking that my life would be a lot different if I had a beautiful face too.

And then, in a magazine I found an advertisement(广告) for a freckle removal cream(祛斑霜) knew that I could afford it if I saved my money and I did . For three weeks I went to the mailbox every day exactly at the time the mail arrived.

Finally, I got the magical cream and I couldn't wait to try it on my face . Later that day I went to work on the farm. But if you apply it in the sun, it seems to make your skin worse. Instead of developing a clear complexion, you just get more and darker freckles.

By the end the day when I came back to the house, my family began to say things like," I have never seen you with that many freckles "When I saw myself in the mirror, I cried and hid in the bathroom .

When my grandfather came to see what was wrong with me I told him about the story of the freckle removal cream. Grandpa didn't understand, so I tried to explain why I didn't want to have freckles . He looked at me in surprise and said, "But my child, there are all kinds of flowers, and they are all beautiful." I said," I have never seen a flower with freckles ! "Then I ran back to my room.

When I opened my eyes the next morning, the first thing I saw was a tiger lily—a beautiful flower with freckles. I didn't know where Grandpa found it. Looking at it , I was lost in thought ...

Once a king had a great highway built for the members of his kingdom. After it was completed but before it was 1 to the public, the king decided to have a (n) 2 . He invited as many people as he could to take part in it so that he could see who could travel the3 the best.

 On the day of the competition, the people came. Some of them had fine clothing or great food. They travelled the highway all day, but each one, when arriving at the end, looked rather4 and complained to the king that there was a large pile of 5 on the road at one spot (地点) and that this got in their way. 

 At the end of the day, a traveler crossed the finish line and walked over to the king. He was6 and dirty, but he showed great respect to the king and handed him a bag of gold. 

 He explained that he stopped along the way to clear (清理) a pile of rocks and found that bag of gold under it all. He hoped that the king could help him to7 it to its owner. 

 The king replied, "You are the rightful owner. This is the8 for the winner. You travel the road9 because you clear the road for those who will10 ."

My name is Kelly. I'm from the UK. Look! This is {#blank#}1{#/blank#} classroom. It's very big and clean. After class, the boys and girls are talking happily

 But what are the school things {#blank#}2{#/blank#} ? They are a book, some notebooks, two {#blank#}3{#/blank#} and  a ruler. There is John's name on the maths book. So it must be his. And Sarah also {#blank#}4{#/blank#} her name on the blue notebook. It is hers. Lucy is happy to find her ruler. I think one of the two erasers is Tony' s. So I ask him, "Tony, is that your eraser?""Oh, yes, it's my eraser." Then, Tony takes away his eraser. What about the other eraser {#blank#}5{#/blank#} the orange notebook? Are these Lily' s?I want to ask Henry for help.
