Bell was a British teacher to deaf people. He was born in Scotland in 1847 and went to school in London. Bell was interested in helping deaf people to learn to speak. He taught people how to use their mouths to make the sounds needed for talking.

    Bell's family moved to Canada in 1870 and to the USA in 1871. For several years he taught the people who could not speak in Boston. But at the same time he was developing a way to use electricity to send the sounds of talking along a wire, and he made the first telephone in June, 1875.

    The telephone developed quickly in the USA over the next few years. The Bell Telephone Company started in 1877, and in 1878 the first telephone centre was built in New York. More than 150,000 people had telephones in their homes ten years later. Bell was a kind man and spent much of his money and time during the rest of his life helping deaf people. In 1922 he died in Canada.

    Denies Walme in Texas, USA, now 14 years old, published his best-seller Unbending Gisula eight years ago. The book is about a little whale named Gisul.

    One day, Gisula did not take his mother's words and went up the beach. Then he got lost and had to learn to live by himself. The colour pictures were drawn by Denies himself. Denies published the books at the age of six He is said to be the youngest writer and picture artist.

    Another surprising thing about the book is that it became a best seller immediately after it was published and brought him a lot of money. Because he spent much time writing the books, his study was not very good and he had to learn the year's work again but his gift of writing is highly praised by the teachers and student. And he was even invited to give talks on writing.

    But Denies does not want to be a writer. He said, 'I like planes most. I dream of becoming a pilot someday.'

Throughout the year, 1 school organizes charity (慈善) events and activities. One of 2 events of the year is the food drive. So far, this 3 a very successful charity event and most of the students have taken part in it. Each school does its food drives 4 . However, most of the time the food drives are set up in a similar style. 

In my school it usually lasts for 5 weeks. Students will bring the food 6 home. The food 7 for a long period of time, such as canned goods and pastas. We 8 organize activities outside the school. Some students go door to door around their neighborhood asking if people are willing to donate (捐献) some food. Some set up donation boxes in churches and 9 areas such as stores or cinemas. The students all work really hard and the members of the community are very supportive. 

After that time is over, we will bring the collected food to our local Community Table. The families in our community can go for 10 warm meal if they need to. Usually, a group of students go with one of our teachers to send the food. I 11 food with our teacher last year, and I was 12 to see so many families who suffering from hunger in our community. 

I was glad that our school was able 13 all of those families. We do this several times each year. 14 meaningful event! Sure, we can't change the world, 15 we can do our best to make our world a better place.

One day, Mr Hill arrived at London Airport after a three-week holiday in Paris. He1 had a beard (胡须). It was hot there, so he cut it off. But his passport (护照) photo2 him with his beard.

 An officer looked at the photo for a3 and said, "Excuse me, please sit down. I won't keep you4 ." The officer walked away, showed the photo to a second officer and said, "I knew that5 well.But I forget who he is." The second6 looked at the passport and asked where Mr Hill came from. When he heard that Mr Hill just came back from 7 the second officer smiled and said." An Englishman with a beard 8 a painting in Paris on Friday. He may be the thief"

 Suddenly the first officer remembered who Mr Hill was. He returned to him and asked. "Did you9 at the No.2 High School?"When Mr Hill said "10 " in surprise, the first officer smiled and said, "I'm Jack Smith. You taught me French．"
