1.We have always been warned of the dangers of the forest fires. They cause     1   to a forest. They kill many plants and animals in an eco-system, which is a group of living things and their environment. But have you ever heard of a forest fire that can be     2    for a forest?
2.People start some of the fires with special reasons to actually do well to the eco-system.
3.In fact, fires are a natural part of any eco-system. Without fires, the oldest and largest trees would stop sunlight from reaching the forest floor. Fires can       3      some of these old trees. When the trees die, they provide something good for the earth. New trees can grow strong and healthy in their place.
4.Some trees even need fires to grow. These trees hold their seeds(种子) inside. Heats from a fire allow the coat of the seeds to open up. Then the seeds fall to the ground and have the 4 to grow.
5.Scientists, who know about nature’s needs, start some of these fires, called controlled burns. A fire is started and kept under control. This way, the fire does not spread out of the area or 5   a large space of the forest. Fires can be dangerous for animals. Even when animals continue to live after forest fires, they can go hungry   6    their food has been damaged in the fire. Small, controlled fires mean that animals will not have to move far to find food. After some time, small plants begin to grow. Animals return soon after the plants return. This   7 makes an eco-system.
6.So the next time you hear about a forest fire, think about the good as well as the bad. It may take a new eco-system a while to return, but it will likely come back stronger and healthier than ever.

Have you ever complained (抱怨) why life is so tiring? Does the sky sometimes      dark to you? Are your lessons sometimes not successful? Well, friends, cheer up and       all the time. If you see the world with your warm heart, you will find the whole world smiling to you..

Not long ago, a friend of mine decided to read a lot of books to get      knowledge. So he went to the library and     happily with several books. But after a few days, he felt bored. The idea of finishing all of the books seemed     , because it was     for him to sit quietly to read a whole book. He didn’t know what to do. Then one day, he suddenly thought of “Why not make reading fun?” It gave him      again. Reading is a journey of spirit(心灵之旅). Every time when we     a book, we are actually talking     the writer. Since then, he tried to spend more time reading books, so he could feel all of the writer’s happiness and sadness. And reading is     boring, but kind of interesting.

Attitude can make a great     . Someone once said, “     the situation is bad, people are free to choose their attitude.” So, don’t complain about the situation. It helps     . For example, one day the weather is fine. You and your friends want to go for a picnic. Just before you go, it  suddenly starts to rain. Maybe you would feel very      and start to complain about the weather. But dear friends, why  don’t you sit down and listen to the free concert that the nature brings you? And with the timely rain, crops(庄稼) in the fields will grow better and farmers will have a good harvest (收成).

Attitude decides everything. With an optimistic (乐观的) attitude, life is easy and happy. Let’s smile to     we meet and the whole world will smile to us.
