Soon after we were given the project, my 39 went out to McDonald’s. We were waiting to be 40 , when all of a sudden everyone around us began to 41 , and even my husband did. There standing behind me were two homeless men 42 .

Do you know what kind of things the young people are reading? More and more 36 and parents have noticed another kind of pollution, which comes from the printed papers 37 on streets.
These printed things 38 newspapers but have hardly anything to do with 39 . You can only find reading materials badly made up there---some are too strange for anyone to 40 , others are frightening stories of something 41 .However, many of the young readers are getting interested in such 42 reading, which 43 them what they should pay for their breakfast and brings them nightmares(噩梦)and immoral(邪恶)ideas in 44 . Homework is left 45 , and daily games are lost.
These sellers shout on streets selling their papers well. The writers, publishers and printers, 46 they are, we never know, are 47 their silent money.
The sheep-skinned wolf’s story seems to have been forgotten once again .Why not 48 this kind of thing? Yes, both teachers and parents have asked each other for more strict control of the young readers. 49 ,the more you want to forbid it, the more they want to have a look at it. 50 you may even find several children, driven by the curious natures, 51 one patched paper, which has travelled from hand to hand.
It really does 52 to our society. It has already formed a sort of moral pollution. The 53 teachers and parents need more powerful support in their protection of the young generation. At the same time the young 54 need more interesting books to help them 55 those ugly papers.

Odland remembers like it was yesterday working in an expensive French restaurant in Denver. The ice cream he was serving fell onto the white dress of a rich and important woman.
Thirty years have passed, but Odland can not get the memory out of his mind, nor the woman’s kind reaction(反应). She was shocked, regained calmness and, in a kind voice, told the young Odland. “It is OK. It wasn’t your fault.” When she left the restaurant, she also left the future Fortune 500 CEO(总裁) with a life lesson: You can tell a lot about a person by the way he or she treats the waiter.
Odland isn’t the only CEO to have made this discovery. Instead, it seems to be one of those few laws of the land that every CEO learns on the way up. It’s hard to get a dozen CEO’s to agree about anything, but most agree with the Waiter Rule. They say how others treat the CEO says nothing. But how others treat the waiter is like a window into the soul.
Watch out for anyone who pulls out the power card to say something like, “I could buy this place and fire you,” or “I know the owner and I could have you fired.” Those who say such things have shown more about their character(人品) than about their wealth and power.
The CEO who came up with it, or at least first wrote it down, is Raytheon CEO Bill Swanson. He wrote a best-selling book called Swanson’s Unwritten Rules of Management. “A person who is nice to you but rude to the waiter, or to others, is not a nice person,” Swanson says. “I will never offer a job to the person who is sweet to the boss but turns rude to someone cleaning the tables.”

After The Super Girl was shown on TV, it was loved by millions of people, especially the young people. It becomes a hot topic among people. Here are some of their opinions
China is a developing country and women now show their abilities as freely as men do. The modern world is a stage for them to show who they are and what they want.

One of the girls looks like Jolin Tsai (蔡依林) . In Singapore, a show of this kind is called Superstar. I think the competition like this is a good chance for the young girls with the dreams of stage. As for The Super Girl, I hope I can see one international super star coming out from this year's competition .
