When I moved into an empty dormitory for the first time two years ago, I was certain of a few things. Firstly, I realized that I didn’t1anybody at the school. Secondly, I knew that I wanted to work hard at my lessons and learn something useful. And thirdly, I wanted to have a good time with new classmates, without my parents around.
The first2frightened me in the beginning. But that3quickly disappeared. It was the other two goals4ended up being my difficulties. I knew that it was hard to devote enough time to class and to social efforts. But I wanted to5in both. I knew this would be a6, but I didn’t realize how much until classes began.
I got on well with the other girls who lived in my dorm.7, instead of finishing my homework8it was due, I went upstairs and had ice cream with my neighbor. I always finished it the next day between classes. I knew it wasn’t very good and the grade I9showed my lack of effort.
I was10that I needed to find some sort of balance. So I created a schedule that would11my time up between going to class, doing homework, and relaxing. It seemed like a good idea, but I was only able to12it for a few days. A schedule like that was too much pressure.
So I tried another13. Each week I made a list of everything I had to get done during that week. Then, under the list of things I had to get done, I made a list of things I could do if I had time.
This is the method I have used since then. I’m glad that I’ve learned to14things and it has15prepare me for what is to come after graduation.

I ran into a stranger as he passed by, and I at once apologized to him. We were both very1, he stranger and I. Then we went 2 our way after saying good-bye.
But at home a 3 story is told. Later that day, when I 4 supper in the kitchen, my daughter suddenly stood behind me very 5. When I turned back, I 6 knocked her down. “Don’t be in my7!” I shouted angrily. She walked away with her little heart 8.On the kitchen floor later, I found some flowers by the door.
That night, while I lay 9 in bed, a voice in my deep heart said, “While 10 with a stranger, you are so polite, but with the children you love, you are so easily11.Why are there some flowers by the door? Those are the flowers she brought for you. She 12 them herself, pink, yellow and your favorite blue. She stood quietly in order to give you a 13, and you never saw the 14 in her eyes.”
By this time, I felt very 15 and now my tears began to fall. I quietly went and knelt (跪下) by her16, “Wake up, little girl, wake up,” I said, “Are these the flowers you picked for me?” She smiled, “Yes, because I knew you’d like them, especially the17.” I said, “Daughter, I’m sorry for the way I acted today; I 18 have shouted at you that way.”
She said, “Oh, Mom, that’s okay. I love you 19.” I hugged her and said, “Daughter, I love you too, and I do like the flowers.”

When I was growing up, my father always stopped what he was doing and listened while I'd breathlessly fill him in on my day.1 the time I graduated from college, I got a job teaching special education at a school about 170 miles from home. “2,” Dad warned me during my visit home. He was3 about my living alone.
One evening, I stayed after4 to rearrange my classroom. Finished, I realized the gate was5! Everyone else had gone home. After checking all the6, I found just enough room to squeeze (挤) under the gate. I lay on my back and7 edged through. Suddenly, I saw about several boys following me. Quickening my8, I reached into my shoulder bag to get my key ring. But the key ring wasn't there! “Hey! Let's9 the lady!” one boy shouted.
Suddenly, my fingers wrapped around a10 key in my purse. I did not even11 if it was for my car. I reached my car and the key12! I opened the door, slid in and locked it -- just as the teenagers surrounded the car.13, I started the engine and drove away. Some teachers went back to the school with me14. With flashlights, we found the key ring on the ground by the gate,15 it had fallen as I slid through.
When I returned to my apartment, the phone was ringing. It was16. “Oh, I forgot to tell you. I put a (an)17 car key into your purse” he said. “in18 you ever need it.” Today, I keep that key in my drawer and19 it. Whenever I hold it in my hand, I am20 of all the wonderful things Dad has done for me over the years.

There was a man who had a little boy that he loved very much.Every day after work the man would come home and1with the little boy.He would always2all of his extra time with the little boy.
One night, while the man was at work, he3that he had extra work to do for the evening, and that he wouldn't be able to play with his little boy.4 he wanted to be able to give the boy something to keep him5.So, looking around his office, he saw a magazine with a large6of the world on the cover.He got a(n)7.He removed the map, and then patiently tore it up into small pieces.Then he put all the8in his coat pocket.
When he got home, the little boy came9to him and was ready to play. The man10that he had extra work to do and couldn't play just now.He11the little boy into the dining room, and12all the pieces of the map.He spread them on the table.He explained that it was a map of the world, and that by the time he could13together, his extra work would be14, and they could both play.Surely this would keep the child busy for hours, he thought.
About half an hour later the boy came to the man and said, "Okay, it's finished. Can we play now?" The man was15, saying, "That's impossible.Let's have a look" And16 enough, there was the picture of the world, all put together every piece in its 17.The man said, “That’s amazing! How did you do that?” The boy said, “It's18.On the19 of the page is a(n)20of a man.When I put the man together the whole world fell into place.”

The amount of usable water has always been of great interest in the world. 1 springs and streams sometimes means control, particularly in the 2 areas like the desert. The control is possible even without possession of large areas of 3 land. In the early days of the American West, gun fights were not 4 for the water resources (资源). And laws had to be 5 to protect the water rights of the 6 and the use of the water resources accordingly.
7 is known to us all, there is not 8 water in all places for everyone to use as much as he likes. Deciding on the 9 of water that will be used in any particular period
10 careful planning, so that people can manage and use water more 11. Farmers have to change their use of or demand for water 12 the water supply forecast (预报).
The 13 water supply forecast is based more on the water from the 14 than from the below. Interest is 15 in the ways to increase rainfall by man-made methods, and to get water from the winter snow on mountain 16. With special equipment, some scientists are studying the ways in which the mountain snow can be 17, and with the help of a repeater station, they send the 18 data (数据) to the base station. The operator at the base station can get the data at any time by 19 a button. In the near future, the forecast and use of water 20 probably depend on the advance knowledge of snow on mountains, not of water underground.

I have spent years of my life traveling all over the world. When I arrive in a new country or city, usually I am very1and go to bed early. For this2my first day or night in any new place is always quiet and very 3happens.4my first night in Algeciras was very different. This night was very5and unusual.
At that time6in Southern Spain was a dirty and7looked-after city. I arrived late in the evening by8. As soon as I got off the boat, I went to look for a 9 . I found a small hotel not far from the boat.
This hotel looked 10and untidy from the outside. But I was very tired and did not know my11around the city of Algeciras. And so I decided to stay in this12 hotel on the quay(码头). I also decided to stay in this hotel for another13. The moon was full and it was a clear,14night. From the hotel I could15the sea. I could see the huge rock of Gibraltar in the bright moonlight.
The hotel had a narrow16and no name. When I went through this doorway, I had to climb up narrow and dark stairs to the first floor. I17a small cupboard with a desk in front of it. This was the hotel office.
An untidy and tired woman was sitting beside the18. When I said I wanted a room for the night, she took me 19some more stairs to a room on the second floor. Inside this room the landlord was sitting playing cards with some friends. He was20 his game of cards and I was simply a nuisance(讨厌的人). He looked at me when the woman told him that I wanted a room. Then he said, Room Five, and turned back to his game of cards.

When their son, Alex,1three in 2005, they invited 20 friends to a nearby park. Not long after that the2were brainstorming ways to teach Alex about giving to3. “We wanted to do something that would have a(an)4on our community, and that our young child could5in. We started wondering what 6fortunate kids do on their birthdays. The next day, we called a local shelter, and learnt that7children typically didn’t do8to celebrate at all. No cake. No gifts. No party.” The couple said.
Several weeks later,9held a party at the10for the children who had birthdays that month. They decorated, served cake, and danced with 50 kids. Alex helped to11presents.
12that first party, the couple have turned their simple idea 13Birthday Blessings, a nonprofit that hosts monthly parties at 10 shelters.
To date, Birthday Blessings (birthdayblessings.org.) has thrown more than 50014at different shelters and handed out 22, 000 party15to nearly 4000 homeless children in and around their community.
Birthday Blessings is16entirely by volunteers. The charity(慈善)will take almost anything—toys, clothing, candy, baby items—17it’s not used. “These kids never get anything new.” John said, “It makes a big18to them psychologically.”
Being “part of this labor love” is19making an impression on their son Alex. On his seventh birthday, his grandparents sent a check.20it, the first thing he said was that he wanted to give half to the birthday kids.

Not too long ago, a story that happened at Walt Disney touched me greatly. A guest1out of our Polynesian Village resort(度假胜地) at Walt Disney was asked how she2her visit. She told the front-desk clerk she had had a(n)3vacation, but was heartbroken about4several rolls of Kodak color film(胶卷) she had not yet5. At that moment she was particularly6over the loss of the pictures she had shot at our Polynesian Luau,7this was a memory she especially treasured.
Now, please understand that we have no written service rules8lost photos in the park.9, the clerk at the front desk10Disney’s idea of caring for our11. She asked the woman to leave her a couple rolls of12film, promising she would take care of the rest of our show at Polynesian Luau.
Two weeks later the guest received a13at her home. In it were photos of all the actors of our show,14signed by each performer. There were also15of the public procession(游行队伍) and fireworks in the park, taken by the front-desk clerk in her own

We may look at the world around us, but somehow we manage not to see it until whatever we’ve become used to suddenly disappears. 1, for example, the neatly-dressed woman I 2 to see--or look at--on my way to work each morning.
For three years, no matter 3 the weather was like, she was always waiting at the bus stop around 8:00 am. On 4days, she wore heavy clothes and a pair of woolen gloves. Sometimes 5out neat, belted cotton dresses and a hat pulled low over her sunglasses. 6, she was an ordinary working woman. Of course, I 7 all this only after she was seen no more. It was then that I realized how 8 I expected to see her each morning. You might say I 9 her.
“Did she have an accident? Something 10?” I thought to myself about her 11. Now that she was gone, I felt I had 12 her. I began to realize that part of our 13 life probably includes such chance meetings with familiar 14: the milkman you see at dawn, the woman who 15walks her dog along the street every morning, the twin brothers you see at the library. Such people are 16markers in our lives. They add weight to our 17 of place and belonging.
Think about it. 18, while walking to work, we mark where we are by 19 a certain building, why should we not mark where we are when we pass a familiar, though 20 person?
