15.Dear Alcohol,
You've been around forever.I can remember all the pain you've caused for me.
Do you remember the night you almost took my father's life?I do.He loves you.Sometimes I think he loves you more than he loves me.He's addicted to you,to the way you promise to rid him of his problems only to cause more of them.You just sat back and laughed as his car went spinning through the street,crashing into two other cars.He wasn't the only one hurt by you that night.
Do you remember the night of my first high school party?You were there.My friends were intrigued by you.They treated you as if they were never going to see you again,drinking all of you that they could.I spent two hours that night helping my friends who had fallen completely."I'm so embarrassed,"they said as I held their hair back so that they could vomit (呕吐)."I'm sorry,"they said when I called taxies for them,walking them out and paying the driver in advance."This won't happen again,"they said as they were sent to the hospital to have their stomachs pumped.Two 15-year-old girls slept in hospital beds that night thanks to you.
Do you remember the night when you took advantage of my 17-year-old neighbor who had to drive to pick up his sister from her dance lessons?Do you know how we all felt when he hit another car and killed the two people in the other car?He died the next morning too.His sister walked home from her dance lesson,and passed police cars and a crowd of people gathering on the sidewalk just two blocks away from the dance studio.She didn't realize her brother was in the midst of it all.She never saw him again.And it's all your fault.
I wish you'd walk out of my life forever.I don't want anything to do with you.Look at all the pain you've caused.Sure,you've made people happy too from time to time.But the damage you've caused in the lives of millions is inexcusable.Stop luring (引诱) in the people I love.Stop hurting me,please.
Sincerely,
Anonymous

10.Goldie's Secret
She turned up at the doorstep of my house in Cornwall.No way could I have sent her away.No way,not me anyway.Maybe someone had kicked her out of their car the night before."We're moving house";"No space for her any more with the baby coming.""We never really wanted her,but what could we have done?She was a present."People find all sorts of excuses for abandoning an animal.And she was one of the most beautiful dogs I had ever seen.
I called her Goldie.If I had known what was going to happen I would have given her a more creative name.She was so unsettled during those first few days.She hardly ate anything and had such an air(样子) of sadness about her.There was nothing I could do to make her happy,it seemed.Heaven knows what had happened to her at her previous(以前的) owner's.But eventually at the end of the first week she calmed down.Always by my side,whether we were out on one of our long walks or sitting by the fire.
That's why it was such a shock when she pulled away from me one day when we were out for a walk.We were a long way from home,when she started barking and getting very restless(焦躁不安的).Eventually I couldn't hold her any longer and she raced off down the road towards a farmhouse in the distance as fast as she could.
By the time I reached the farm I was very tired and upset with Goldie.But when I saw her licking (舔) the four puppies (幼犬) I started to feel sympathy towards them."We didn't know what had happened to her,"said the woman at the door."I took her for a walk one day,soon after the puppies were born,and she just disappeared.""She must have tried to come back to them and got lost,"added a boy from behind her.I must admit I do miss Goldie,but I've got Nugget now,and she looks just like her mother.And I've learnt a good lesson:not to judge people.

20.I was in a terrible mood.Two of my friends had gone to the movies the night before and hadn't invited me.I was in my room thinking of ways to make them sorry when my father came in."Want to go for a ride,today,Beck?It's a beautiful day."
"No!Leave me alone!"Those were the last words I said to him that morning.
My friends called and invited me to go to the mall with them a few hours later.I forgot to be mad at them and when I came home to find a note on the table.My mother put it where I would be sure to see it."Dad has had an accident.Please meet us at Highland Park Hospital".
When I reached the hospital,my mother came out and told me my father's injuries were extensive."Your father told the driver to leave him alone and just call 911,thank God!If he had moved Daddy,there's no telling what might have happened.A broken rib(肋骨)might have pierced(穿透)a lung…"
My mother may have said more,but I didn't hear.I didn't hear anything except those terrible words:Leave me alone.My dad said them to save himself from being hurt more.How much had I hurt him when I hurled those words at him earlier in the day?
It was several days later that he was finally able to have a conversation.I held his hand gently,afraid of hurting him.
"Daddy…I am so sorry…"
"It's okay,sweetheart.I'll be okay."
"No,"I said,"I mean about what I said to you that day.You know,that morning?"
My father could no more tell a lie than he could fly.He looked at me and said."Sweetheart,I don't remember anything about that day,not before,during or after the accident.But I remember kissing you goodnight the night before."He managed a weak smile.
My English teacher once told me that words have great power.They can hurt or they can heal.And we all have the power to choose our words.I intend to do that very carefully from now on.

16.School meals are junk and don't provide the nutrition a body needs to grow,says Jamie Oliver,and he decides to do something about it.Schoolchildren in France who eat school dinners are likely to have a well-balanced,four-course meal with fresh ingredients (成分) costing up to£1.10 to make.ButBritish schoolchildren are fed mainly cheap-processed meat,frozen pizzas and potato smiley faces,costing on average just 37 pence per meal.
In fact the money spent on school dinners is so small that schools can afford only what some people describe as junk food rather than fresh natural ingredients.This means that their meals don't provide the nutrients and goodness children's bodies need to develop properly.No wonder there's growing concern about the health of the nation's schoolchildren.
Celebrity chef Jamie Oliver was so concerned about school dinners that he decided to try to improve them by teaming up with the kitchen staff at Kidbrooke School in Grenwich.He took a lot of time to learn how to get the kids to stop eating the junk and move to healthy food.This is not easy!But it is possible with some hard work and determination!After a lot of hard work from both Jamie and the school's cooks,Kidbrooke is now serving some of the best school food in Britain.The menu includes fresh butcher's sausages with creamy mash and onion gravy,chilli corn with basmati rice and fresh fruit salad.Incredibly,Jamie and the staff managed to create this healthier menu with the same 37 pence budget.But the school chefs admit cooking healthy food isn't as easy as simply putting burgers and chips in the oven.
Then came the good news!The government has promised to spend£280 million to improve school dinners across the country.Well done Jamie!This means that die national average cost will rise from 37p to 50p in primary schools and from 37p to 60p in secondary schools.
