Dean felt his arms and legs were burning. With each breath, Dean wondered if he should be done, but as he touched the wall at the end of the pool he turned for another lap (圈). "I can do one more. This is for Kevin," Dean told himself. He was starting his seventh lap.

    Dean and the other members of his swim team were swimming to raise money for Dean's best friend, Kevin Hawking. Earlier in the year, Kevin fell ill. He needed expensive medical care that his family couldn't afford. After Kevin's friends learned what was happening, they started brainstorming ways to help. Several of Kevin's friends were on the swim team, which led to the idea of swimming.

    For a month, Dean and the other swim team members had asked for pledges (承诺) from anyone who would help: family members, friends, and neighbours. Most people pledged a dollar or two each lap. Dean's grandmother said she would offer $ 10 for each lap Dean swam!

    Finally, as Dean completed his tenth lap, he knew he was too tired to keep going. If I try another lap. I'll end up lying in the middle of the pool, waiting for someone to come and get me, he thought. Dean pulled himself up onto the edge of the pool and sat breathing quickly for a couple of minutes, quietly resting before he tried to stand.

    Dean's father came over and said, "Wow, Dean," shaking his head in amazement, "I am so proud of you. That's farther than anyone else has swum today, and I know it's farther than you've ever swum before."

    Dean stood up and slowly walked with his father back to the seats where the other swimmers sat next to Kevin. "Thank you," Kevin said.

    "It's no big deal. I know you'd do the same for me," Dean said.

 Hello,my name is Lily. I will tell you about my best friend. Her name is Trudy. Trudy has long,dark brown hair and green eyes. She is the same age as me, but a little taller. She is always happy.

We sit together in class,and help each other with our schoolwork. We always go home together after school and we play computer games at the weekend. Trudy thinks very quickly （快地）and usually wins （赢）.

Trudy is learning to play the piano. I am learning to play the flute（笛子）. We practise together every day.

Sometimes Trudy stays in my house for a night, or I stay in her house. We always have a good time.

 Cindy is a middle school student. She likes shopping very much.

 It is New Year's Day today. Many stores are at a great sale. So Cindy's mother and Cindy go shopping after lunch.

 They are in a store now. Cindy sees a note that says"BOGOF!". She asks a saleswoman what that is. The saleswoman says to her," It is‘ buy one, get one free(免费)'."

 That sounds good! Cindy finds a shirt for 30 yuan. Cindy's mother wants to buy a skirt . It is 30 yuan, too. So Cindy buys a yellow shirt and her mother buys a white skirt.

 Cindy and her mother are very happy.

One day Mr. Smith went to a dinner party. He was wearing old clothes. He came into the room, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} people in the room didn't look at him. They didn't ask him to sit{#blank#}2{#/blank#} the table. He wasn't happy. But he said{#blank#}3{#/blank#} （something）. 

Mr. Smith went home and put{#blank#}4{#/blank#}his best clothes. He went back to the party. All the guests in the room{#blank#}5{#/blank#}（stand） up and looked at him. They gave him good food to eat. Mr. Smith took {#blank#}6{#/blank#}his coat, and put it on the food and said, "Eat, coat！"

The other people were{#blank#}7{#/blank#}（surprise） and asked, "What are you doing? Why do you do that? "

Mr. Smith answered, "I am asking my coat to eat food. When I {#blank#}8{#/blank#}（wear） old clothes, the man standing at the door didn't let me in until I showed him my{#blank#}9{#/blank#}（invite）. When I came in, you didn't ask me to sit down. Now I am wearing these nice clothes and you give me good food to eat. Now I see, you give the food to my coat, not to{#blank#}10{#/blank#}（I）. "

Stunt (特技) actors work in movies and television shows. They always take the real actors' places to do some dangerous actions. Circus (戏团) performers work just as hard as they could, because they also want to be the stars of the show. 

Stunt actors must be strong. Many of them start doing this from martial arts (武术) and learn many other things such as horse riding and driving. Some become good at one thing, such as stunt driving. They try to make their performances look real, just like real actors do that. 

Stunt actors work wherever movies or television shows are made. As we all know, Hollywood is the most famous film city of the world. And there are also other places working with movies or television shows, such as Vancouver in Canada and Queensland in Australia. Also, they often work in forests and mountains. Stunt actors left home to work for weeks or even months. 

Circus life is also busy. Performers need to be strong and flexible (灵活的). Circus performers are not shy people and they enjoy being the center of the whole performance. 

Many circus performers travel from town to town. They stay for a week, and then move on. And some performers even have no home. They live in large cars and go everywhere to perform. Circus families often travel together. The children perform with their parents sometimes. Circus children don't go to school. They study by the teachers' letters, or study with a teacher who travels with them.
