My tears run down when I talk to my parents on the phone. What are they doing when I 41 them?
Dad works from 7a.m to 9p.m. Mum does all the 42 . She also has to work in the vineyard (葡萄园). But I can’t do 43 for them. Every day she got up earlier than Dad. When I 44 call her at 7:30 in the evening, she is still working and 45 supper. How hard it is for a daughter to stop the 46 in heart! And even harder to keep back the tears. 47 only thing I can do is to promise her that I’ll study hard in the university. I also 48 her to take care of herself and dad. I can not live 49 them.
Mum says the happiest time for dad and 50 is when my sister and I return home. We play 51 in the room, watch TV or do anything we like, with dad 52 mum cooking together in the kitchen. It is 53 the happiest time for me. I’ve never thought my holidays at home could be so 54 . I wanted to do more housework because mum really needs more rest.
Love, sometimes, doesn’t need too many 55 . We may be too shy to say the warm word out. Then give them a call and tell them you miss them.

When you get tired of homework, several minutes’ walk in a nearby green park helps you relax at once. Or you may stand facing the lake or the seas. They will calm (not to be excited or nervous) you just like the green plants.
Wonder why? Color is a key part of the answers. Since it is so, green and blue help make people feel more quiet and safe.

Passage 3
A smile will tell people around you that you are a kind and friendly person. However, many people don’t smile because they think they have ugly teeth. For example, one of my classmates, Mike, doesn’t have very nice teeth, so that is why he seldom opens his mouth. He even says that he has lost confidence because of his teeth. So it is very important for us to look after our teeth. In fact, a lot of people have this problem. Some people inherit teeth problems from their parents, while others’ teeth are damaged because of bad habits, like heavy smoking, eating too much sugar or not brushing teeth often. If your teeth are in bad shape, you should see a dentist and ask for help. They can help improve your teeth and tell you how to take care of them.
Smiling can help you to feel more confidence and make people think of you as a more friendly person. If you want to keep healthy, you should not only smile but also laugh. An Indian doctor called Kataria said that young children should laugh about 30 times a day, while adults should laugh between 7 and 15 times a day. So please take this chance to smile and laugh now.
