I don't like waiting in line when a shop assistant has a long telephone conversation.When that happens,I usually say,"Would you mind (66)helpingme?"And I don't like it when shop assistants follow me (67)around.Then I say,"Could you please (68)not follow me around?I'll ask you if I(69)need your help.Usually the shop assistants say they are (70)sorry,but sometimes they get mad.If that happens,I won't go (71)back to that store again.
I get annoyed(烦恼) when someone talks to me while I'm reading.This (72)happensto me all the time in the school library.When it happens,I (73)usually talk to the person because I want to be polite.But (74)becauseI'm polite,people don't know I'm annoyed.So they do the same thing again.Perhaps in the (75)future I should try not to be so polite.

When I think of growing up,I think of summertime and those long days when good weather and free time allowed the world to open up in front of me.Every day was a new opportunity for experience and adventure.
The first summer I can really (75)B,I was six years old and spending time in the countryside.There were fields of corn separated by windbreaks(防风林) of tall trees and a railway line cut through the middle of the landscape with its shiny steel tracks.My brother and I walked along the tracks throwing stones at the grass and flowers that grew along each side.We were warriors,adventurers.I don't know why,but I suddenly stopped throwing stones and just started (76)Aand listening.The corn leaves,the trees,the train tracks,every cloud in the sky,every stone on the ground,every sight,every sound; it was…beautiful!I had
(77)C thought of beauty before.I was too young to be aware of the concept(概念).But there it was all around me and I was part of it.
Today's city children have (78)D chance of experiencing that moment.They are the"touchscreen generation"who spend up to seven hours a day on their mobile phones or surfing the Internet or watching TV.Even when they have a chance of spending some time with (79)D,they are more likely to ignore(忽视) it.They prefer to stay focused on their mobile devices.
Summer is the (80)A season:for plants and for young people.This summer,try to put aside your"touchscreen"and let the true beauty of the season open up for you.

15.My stutter (口吃) had always been much of a problem.I'd had so many specialists for my speech over the years.As I walked down the hallway to meet a new one,memories popped in my head of how painful being a kid who stutters had been.It (75)C hurt.
"Hello!I'm Mrs.Claussen.I hear you're from Texas!"
"Ye-Ye-Ye-Yes m-m-m-m-m-m-m-aam I am…"My heart felt like it was pounding through my chest and my hands were dripping wet.I really blew that introduction.
"Well,"she said with a kind smile."I've always liked Texas."
She turned out to be the best speech specialist I've ever had,not like those who told me to clap my hands while speaking.She was completely (76)B.She spent the first several weeks just talking to me-asking me all kinds of questions about myself,especially my feelings.And she listened.She then began to teach me about the speech.Not just about my speech,but about everybody's.
I sang in my old school and was a pretty good tenor (男高音),but I learned that the new school's singing group was all filled up.It was such bad news,for I thought that was the one thing I could really do well-and I could do it (77)D stuttering.Somehow Mrs.Claussen finally got me in the group.I felt like she really cared about me as a person,not just a speech student.
During the next two years,my speech didn't get much better-except with her.When I was in college,things got worse.I once even wondered if I would ever be able to (78)B!It was a very depressing time,and I often felt lonely.When I was feeling really sorry for myself,I remembered Mrs.Claussen had told me whether I could (79)A my speech was all up to me.She had told me not to fight for perfect speech,just better speech.She was right about that.I finally improved my speech greatly.
Many years have passed,but I think of her (80)A,wondering if she had as much influence on her other students as she had on me.I like to think that she did.Her name was Mrs.Claussen…and she cared.I'II never forget her.
