There were two lovers. The man was 41  cowardly(胆小的) that he always let the girlfriend try first everything   42  they would do. His girlfriend was not so  43  with that.
Once they went out to sea. After returning , their boat was  44  by the storm. Luckily, the girlfriend held a  45  to save their lives. The girlfriend asked her boyfriend, "Do you  46 ?" The boyfriend  took out a fruit knife and said, "Yes, but if any shark comes I can  47  it with this." His girlfriend only shook her head with a cold smile.
Soon a great number of people on a  48  found them. Suddenly a group of sharks appeared. His girlfriend  49  , “Let's swim hard together and we'll be all right.”
But her boyfriend suddenly pushed the girl into the sea, held the wood and shouted to the ship by himself, "Let me try  50  this time!"
51  ,his girlfriend looked at her boyfriend. The sharks were drawing near, but they were not interested in the girl and swam  52 to the boy. When he was torn and bitten fiercely by the sharks, the boyfriend 53  shouted to his girlfriend, “ I love you!”
The girl was saved. All the people on the deck（甲板） were standing in silence. The captain sat beside the girl and said, "Miss, he is the  54 man I have  55  seen. Let's pray（祈祷） for him."
"No! He is a  56  , "said the girl coldly.
"How could you say like this? I have just been watching you 57  the telescope(望远镜). I saw clearly he  58  his wrist（手腕） with the knife after pushing you away. The sharks are very sensitive to the 59 .  If he hadn't done this to  60  time. I'm afraid you would never appear on this ship…"

We were driving along the village of Simdara. I  36  to my right and saw an old shelter 20 meters from the side of the road that appeared to be filled with  37 .

“Would you mind  38 ?”  I asked the driver Waris. “I think there is a(n)  39 .”

Waris laughed. “No, Greg, that’s actually a public toilet,” explained Waris and he kept  40 .

“But why are there so many kids? What are they doing there? We need to  41 ,” I insisted. The word caught Waris  42  and he stopped the car.

When we reached the shelter, to my surprise, it was  43  a toilet—or at least it had been at one time. The roof was gone now, and the four toilet pits (坑) had been  44  with old boards. There were 25 children between 4 and 5 years old, one  45 , and a wooden board against the wall.

Though having a tough learning environment, the students are quite  46  to chat with us about their class and curriculum (课程). After about ten minutes, the teacher  47  if we might like to see “the rest of the school”. We  48  and followed her up the hill.

Just over the top of the hill, there was an old tent. It was very  49  inside because nearly 100 students were packed like sardines (沙丁鱼). These students were a little  50  , fourth-, and sixth-graders, and all of them were sitting on the ground.  51  the teacher, they were doing extremely well —  52  most of them had no books, paper or even pencils.

We were forced to  53  to catch our plane. We were all  54  and decided to collect money to build a school for these children who had a hunger for  55 .

Dear Dad,

I was very upset when I received your letter. I knew you  36  not like my results, but I didn’t realize you and Mum were so  37  with me. This has made me  38  very carefully about myself, and now I  39  how silly I have been.

My poor  40  have come from my own  41 . Of course, I want to do my best. I want you and Mum to be proud  42  me, but somehow when I get to school I just can’t keep my   43  on the subject and I stop  44  the teacher. So many other things seem so much more  45 , but I know that I must not  46  the chance you and Mum have given me. If I don’t work very hard  47  the next few months, I am going to get  48  results. So I am going to study hard this summer. And I will show Mum anything  49  I can’t understand so that she can give me help.

I  50  you will allow me to play some basketball. I think I need some exercise,   51 _ I will control the time I   52  on it properly.

If you want me to stop meeting Cindy, I will — but there is  53  serious. We are just good friends, and she often helps me  54  my schoolwork.

Dad, I am really sorry I have made you angry. I’m going to try my best to  55  my study. I promise that I will make you proud of me soon.

    Yours,

    Jimmy
