“I didn’t know  4 I should do,”Dean said to a reporter afterwards.“It was really difficult to tell if the message was real.”So Dean did nothing at first. 5 the message kept coming.
“By then it was easy to see that someone was in trouble,” Dean explained. He   6and discovered that the sender was a student called Tarja, who was alone in a university library. She was ill. What was  7, there was no phone around her. Her only way of communicating with the world was by email. Dean got in touch  8  the police immediately. And they realized that the situation was quite serious. They called the police in Finland. Then an ambulance rushed to the library.   9, she was still alive and was sent to the hospital quickly.

Mr. Jackson works in a college. He likes reading and often 1 some books from the library. He keeps 2 to the radio every morning and reading 3 after dinner. So he knows much and teaches well. He is also good 4 his students. His students 5 him very much. Mike, Mr. Jackson's little son is only nine. He 6 likes reading books. And he often asks his father some questions. Mr. Jackson always thinks his son is too 7 to understand him, so he chooses(选择)8 ones to answer. Of course the boy is not satisfied (对……满意) with them.
One day Mike read something about the electric lights and was 9 them. When his father told him to do housework, he went on(继续)thinking 10 it. He asked him 11 questions, and his father answered all. Then his father said proudly(自豪地),“Fathers always know 12 than sons!” The boy thought for a while and said, “13.” “Oh, why?” Mike didn't answer but asked. “14 invented(发明) the electric lights?” “Thomas Edison.” answered Mr. Jackson “Why didn't his father invent them then?” Mike asked again.
Looking at his son, Mr. Jackson didn't know 15 to answer.

My name is Lily. My father is a teacher. His students love him a lot because he is funny. I love him, too, but I think he can be “foolish”1.
Once we moved into a new house and had to go shopping to buy new chairs and lights. In the supermarket, I’m interested 2 some of the beautiful lights with good qualities and made my father buy them.
When we got home, my father began to work out how much money we had 3 that day. Suddenly, he stopped. “Something’s wrong.” he said. “I’ve got 30 yuan 4 than I should!”“That’s great,” I said. “You can buy me that 5 book I want.”
Father said nothing. Instead, he counted(数) how much money he had again and again.
“The salesgirl must have made a mistake. We 6 go back to the shop,” he said.
“Do you have to go back?” I asked. “Nobody will know we 7 too much change(找零). It would be foolish to go back.”
“It wouldn’t be ‘foolish’.” my father said angrily. “It’s called being 8 .” At that moment, I looked into his eyes and knew he was right.
The salesgirl was surprised to see us in the shop again. But 9 we gave her the money, she thanked us a lot.
On my way home, my father stopped me 10 smiled. “Do you still want that cartoon book?” he asked. I looked at my “foolish” father and answered loudly, “Father, you are the greatest!”

My work keeps me in Hong Kong most of the year,but I try to get away for a month in summer,usually in July.Now as you probably know,that’s the main1season in Europe.The favorite places for vacations and the famous cities are usually very2. But I’m not seeking(寻求) the sun—I can get lots of 3in Hong Kong—and I’m certainly not seeking the crowds!So4I go on vacation,I buy a Train Pass(a kind of train ticket) that allows me first-class travel on most of the railways of Western Europe.First-class compartments(车厢) are5crowded and they are very comfortable.If you’re going on6trip, you can take a sleeping train for an extra charge.There are usually dining cars(餐车) in the train.
I find that train travel is restful and7.There’s always8to see.I particularly(特别地) enjoy9through Switzerland and Italy.You can get a very good10of what a country is like from a train because you don’t go too fast and you stop quite often.Also train travel is very safe,and I am never sick on a train11I am on a ship. Then there are always people to12to if you feel like a chat.
The reason that I seldom(很少) travel by plane is quite13: because train stations are usually built in the centre.I don’t have to14transport(运输工具), transport can be a problem when arriving by15
