"Remember, your father is only one year older than you." That was Mom's usual excuse when Dad said the1 things or did something foolish.
Dad2 drinking exactly one year before I was born.He3  a group of other people who had also stopped drinking.I loved my dad but I4 the way his weekly meetings took him away from me.It seemed they were more 5  to him than I was.But with my6  coming up I thought Dad would make an exception."Can" t you7  it just this time? Saturday is my birthday! " I begged him.He8 , "I'm chairing the meeting this Saturday.We will have your party on Sunday."
Saturday evening I sat on my bed, feeling 9  for myself.Dad started to leave, then10  and said, "Why not come with me tonight? It' s an open meeting.All are 11 ." What would I do at a meeting? But maybe I needed to see why something Dad did every week   12 so much。
After we arrived, Dad announced the13 of the meeting was going to be gratitude."Today I'm 14  seventeen years of stopping drinking, " he continued."One year after quitting drinking I received the most 15  gift of my life, my daughter.I'm so grateful that she has  16  seen me drunk." Shame washed over me.
Later, a man called Dave also told his17.Only then did I know it was Dad that saved his life from drinking.Dad was the18he was at the meeting that day.Showing up week after week and  19 with people, Dad was changing lives.I was so20  of him.

A camp built by students and volunteers spreads over Southern Methodist University(SMU). The affordable1 are designed to be used by the poor as well as survivors of war and natural disasters.
“By the time 2020, there’s going to be about 1.7 billion people living in slums(贫民窟) so we would like to2 change,” says Stephanie Hunt, co-founder of the Hunt Institute for Engineering and Humanities at SMU. The institute, which3 build the village on SMU’s campus, was established to solve problem of the poor in the United States and around the world through engineering, and the free4.
The goal is not just to5 lives, but to change the victims’ lives. The Institute hopes some entrepreneurs(企业家) might program and6 some money with these ideas. One of the structures in the SMU village was built with bricks made7 from recycled plastic bags.
They’re8 together with heavy wires. Harvey Lacey, father of two college-aged sons, including one here at SUM, heard about this project and9 his invention. It’s a heavy-duty, hand-crank compactor(手动压缩机)that anybody can use to form the big bricks he calls Ubuntu Blox.
“The advantages are that these10 weigh less than two pounds. They’re very, very11 These things can go for many generations of housing, ”says Lacey, who is 12 the design. Anybody can follow his online plans to13 the compactor that turns plastic bags into bricks.
On this warm day, it’s14 inside the Ubuntu Blox hut, thanks15 to the thick plastic insulation(绝缘). Kenyan16 Ronald Omyonga, visiting the global village before returning to his native Africa, says his country is full of these recyclable bags. With Lacey’s design, he says that litter could be transformed into17 housing. He dreams of other18 too.
“Look at the Harvey Lacey hut, as a means of creating19 ,”says Omyonga.“Leaning the environment, and turning20 into something that can form houses, not just for the poor.”

An amazing teacher
Years ago a John Hopkins professor gave a group of graduate students this task: Go to the slums(贫民窟). Took 200 boys, between the ages of 12 and 16, and 1 their background and environment, then 2 their chances for the future.
The students, after consulting social statistics, talking to the boys, and collecting much data, concluded that 90 percent of the boys would 3some time in prison.
Twenty-five years later 4 group of graduate students was given the job of 5 the prediction. They went back to the same area. Some of the boys---by then 6---were still there, a few had died, some had moved away, but they got in touch with 180 of the 7200.They found that only four of the group had ever been sent to 8.
Why was it that these men, who had lived in a breeding place of crime, had such a surprisingly good record? The researchers were 9 told,“Well, there was a teacher…”
They pressed(追问)further, and found that in 75 percent of the cases it was the same woman. The researchers went to this teacher, now living in a home for retired teachers. How had she had this brilliant 10 on that group of children? Could she give them any reason why these boys should have remembered her?
“No,” she said,“No,I really couldn’t.”And then, thinking back 11 the years, she said musingly(沉思地),12 to herself than to her questioners,“Iloved those boys…”

Why is work good for health? It is because work _4people busy,  5 loneliness and  solitude . Researches show that people feel unhappy,6nd lonely when they have nothing to do.Instead,the happiest are those who are  7.Many high achievers who love their careers feel that they are happiest when they are working hard . Work serves as 8  between man and reality.By work,people9  each other.By collective activity,they find friendship and warmth.This is helpful to health.The loss of work 10 the loss of everything.It affects man spiritually and _11  him liable to disease.

Six years after high school graduation, Marc called and asked if he could move 9 for a couple of months.

Monty Roberts owns a horse ranch(牧马场) in San Ysidro. He told us his story. As a senior, he was asked to write a 1about what he wanted to be and do when he grew up.

That night he wrote a seven-page paper2his goal of someday owning a horse ranch. He wrote about his dream in great3and he even drew a diagram of a 200-acre ranch, showing the4 of all the buildings.
He put his heart into the5and the next day he handed it in to his teacher. Two days later he received his paper back. On the front page was a large red F with a note that 6, ‘See me after class.’
The boy with the dream went to see the teacher after class and asked, ‘Why did I7 an F?’
The teacher said, ‘This is an 8dream for a young boy like you. Owning a horse ranch requires a lot of money. There’s no 9you could ever do it.’ Then the teacher added, ‘If you will 10this paper with a more realistic goal, I will reconsider your grade.’”
The boy went home and11it. He asked his father what he should do. His father said, ‘Look, son, you have to 12your own mind on this. However, I think it is a very13decision for you.’
Finally, after sitting with it for a week, the boy turned in the14paper, making no changes at all. He stated, ‘You can keep the F and I’ll keep my15.’
Monty now owned a 200-acre ranch. He had 16his plan for a 4,000-square-foot house.
Two summers ago that same school teacher brought 30 kids to camp out on his ranch for a week. When leaving, he said17 , ‘Look, Monty. When I was your teacher, I was something of a dream18. During those years I stole a lot of kids’ dreams. 19, you had enough perseverance not to give up on yours.’”
Don’t let anyone steal your dreams. 20your heart, no matter what.

For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A,B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.
When I was a college student, I did a lot of travelling abroad. That was because a professor1me to do so. She said,“Now is the time for you to travel around the world, 2 your knowledge through actual experiences and have fun!” I agreed with her.
Since I started to work for a3company, however, I have done most of my travellling through the Internet. By using the Internet, I have seen the sights of many cities on my computer screen. And I have really made business4, too. With the help of the Internet, I have also got 5about food in different countries.
Therefore, I was beginning to feel that actual trips were6necessary when I happened to read a famous chef’s comment on the Internet. He said,“It is very difficult to have real Italian food in a foreign country, because we enjoy food and the atmosphere around us at the same time. So why don’t you fly over to Italy and enjoy real Italian7?” Those words reminded me of my8advice. As information technology9,you might be able to do without making some real trips. But this also means that you will miss the various10you can get from travelling.
Today there are people who11direct communication with others and spend much of their time on the Internet. It is not surprising to see a group of people12not with each other but into their micro phones. It seems as if such people are13by an invisible wall. They seem to be losing out on a good chance to14and talk with other people. I do not think that they are taking good advantage of information technology. We should use information technology as a tool to make our daily communication more fruitful. However, we should never let it15our time for face-to-face communication. Let’s make use of information technology more  wisely, and have great fun in experiencing the actual world.

After the quake hit northeast Japan on March 11, many moving stories that I saw with my own eyes happened around me.
I had to walk home since all the 1 had stopped after the earthquake. On my way home I 2 an old lady at a bakery shop who was giving out free bread, which made my heart 3. A man was holding a sign that said, “Please use our 4.” He was 5 his house for people to go to the restroom.
My friend wanted to 6 others. He stood in the cold with a sign “If you’re okay with a motorcycle, I will 7 you to your house.” And then I saw him take one gentleman home, all the way to a faraway place! 
Then next day I drove to 8 my car with gas. There is a lack (缺乏) of 9  now and many gas stations are either closed or have very 10 lines. I got 11, since I was behind 15 cars. Finally, when it was my 12, the man smiled and said, “13 this situation, we are only giving $30 worth gas per person. Is that alright?” “14. I’m just glad that we are all able to 15,” I said. His smile gave me so much comfort.
I saw a man at the evacuation (疏散) center 16when people brought food to him. It was the first time in three days that food was brought to their center. However, after he wiped the tears, his next 17 surprised me. “I am very 18 that we are provided with food. But people in the city next to us haven’t 19 any food at all. Please go to that center as well.” And when hearing that, I realized there is a bright future on the other side of this 20.

Not long after that, another car passed by quickly, 6 the dead bird’s body to whirl(旋转) with the wind. The male bird 7 the movement. As if she was still alive, he 8 flew beside her again. He stared at her as if he was asking, “9 are you not getting up?”
10, she was no longer able to hear him. At the same time, he was trying to lift her up. He, 11, was unable to bear the burden. Another car soon passed by. He quickly 12. Once the car had gone, he came down again.
Although other birds told him that it was 13, he never gave up. He was trying his best to lift her up to 14 her flying again. Another car passed by, and her dead body whirled again as if she was still 15 and trying to fly. He had used all of his 16, but he was too weak.

So he picked up he dead bird and left it at the 19. The living one still stayed at a nearby tree as if he was crying with his singing and 20 to leave.
