What can people do when natural disasters (灾难)happen? Can we stop them? No, we can't. The only thing we can do is to 41  after the disasters.
Last year I met Mr. Flood. It started raining and   42  raining almost a month: the water on the streets got higher and higher every day. We used   43  instead of cars. We lost lots of things, including our businesses, our jobs and our homes.
Schools   44  and farms were destroyed. We ran out of food and clean water. In some places the water was higher than the buildings. I felt like we lived in a(n)  45 _ world.
Because of the flood, lots of  46  broke out. Because of the dead animals, some people  47  . The soil and other things made the water become very, very  48 _. That was in summer time, so though it was raining, the  49  was still high. The hot weather and really dirty water 50  the air very bad. Hospitals didn't have enough rooms for  51  .
When the flood was over, I looked around my city. The word “ 52 ” can describe the situation. Everything was destroyed and lots of people were sick, but we were very  53  .1 think.
We had to 54  our city, take care of the sick people, and start our schools again. I just 55 that one day, people can stop the natural disasters whenever they happen. After all, people are very clever.

What’s your idea about success? Some people say that beginners have all the luck, while others believe that success    1  only with practice. In fact, I feel both of these statements (陈述) are not true all the time. Each is true in some ways    2   not in others.
For example, I went to a drawing competition many years ago and    3   surprisingly. As a prize, I got a film ticket to see “Titanic”. I was really    4   because it was the first time I had taken part in any competition. Thinking that I might be lucky again, I   5   joining in other art competitions. But the result was that I    6  won again. I accepted the fact that the other people had a    7   artistic ability than I did. Art was not something I was especially interested in and I had never practiced the different art skills. So, the   8   I produced were not of a very high standard.
These experiences taught me a lot. Though I might have been lucky    9  , I also need to put in hard work. As we know,    10   makes perfect. So I believe success builds on less luck and chance.
