Life is not easy, so I’d like to say, "When anything happens, believe in yourself．"
When I was a young boy, I was (1) shy to talk to anyone．My classmates often (2) me．
I was sad but could do nothing．Later, happened, and it changed my life．It was an English speech contest．My mother asked me to (3) it．What a terrible idea!It meant I had to speak before all the teachers and students of my school!
“Come on, boy．Believe in yourself．You are sure to (5) ．”Then mother and I talked about many different topics．At last I (6) the topic “Believe in yourself”．I tried my best to remember all the speech and practiced it over 100 times．With my mother’s great love, I did well in the contest．I could hardly believe my (7) when the news came that I had won the first place．I heard the cheers(赞美) (8) the teachers and students．Those classmates who once looked down on(瞧不起)me, now all said “Congratulations!” (9) me．My mother hugged me and cried excitedly．
Since then, everything has changed for me．When I do anything, I try to tell (10) to be sure and I will find myself．This is true not only for a person but also for a country．
The difference between life in one country and in 1 is quite often 2 the difference between city life and village life in 3 country．In an English 4 everybody 5 everybody else; they know what time you get up, what time you go to bed and what you usually have 6 dinner．If you want any help, you will always 7 it and be glad to help 8 in return．In a large city 9 London, there are many things to see and many places to go to． 10 people often do not know each other 11 ．It 12 happens that you have 13 seen your next-door neighbor, don’t know his name or 14 about him．People living in London are often very 15 , particularly 16 ．This is because the people they are with all day are scattered over large areas in the evenings and weekends． 17 you walk 18 street in London on a Sunday, it is almost like an empty town．One is 19 for old people who do not live with their 20 and have no work to go to during the day．

Getting smaller 2 ．We are cutting down large numbers of trees 3 we need wood and farmland．Some scientists say that there will not be any great forests 4 20 or 30 years．
What will happen 5 the forests disappear?A lot of plants will die and the animals will 6 their home．In many places the new farmland will soon look 7 the old deserts．Crops will not grow there．There won’t be enough rain, and the weather will get hot and dry．If the climate(气候)of the earth changes，life will be 8 for everyone．Our living environment will become 9 ．More and more rich farmland will disappear．We will suffer(遭受)a lot from both droughts and floods．
It’s our duty 10 the forests well．Everyone should try his best to make a contribution to taking care of the forests．Stop cutting down the trees and make the world greener!
