Named  21  the letter D, the new trains run at speeds of 200 to 250 kilometers one hour. This is much 22  than Z-type and T-type trains. For example, it  23  take people 12 hours to travel from Shanghai to Beijing. But now it only  24  10. The most interesting part of the bullet trains is the revolving (旋转的) seats. People can adjust (调整) their seats as they like, so that  it  is   25  for you to talk with others around you face to face. The new trains run   26  big cities. They   27 the long trips much faster and more comfortable.
However, many passengers still won’t choose the bullet trains   28  some reasons. The ticket
 29  of the bullet trains are much higher. For example, a hard seat ticket from Beijing to Jinan is only 90 yuan for T-type trains. But on the bullet trains all the seats are   30 . And they cost 153 to 184 yuan. On the other hand, the bullet trains don’t stop at small stations.

My father woke up early one summer morning when I was fourteen and announced, “Get up, you’re going with me to cut the grass in the garden.”
The idea that my father thought I was old enough to help him in his business made me feel proud and excited. From sunup to sundown, my father, my younger brother and I worked in the large garden. By the end of the day I was too tired to say a word but I felt happy. This was my first time to help my father in his business. I got $6 for my work that day.
One day my father found some leaves I had missed and pulled me aside. “Take away these leaves!” he said. “And don’t make me have to tell you to do it again.” The message was clear. Today I value the importance of doing job well the first time. I will never fail to impress (留下印象) the person I’m working for.
After two years, my father told me and my brother that he felt we were old enough to cut the grass by ourselves. Every Saturday during my last two years of high school, we set off early in the morning with the same wish we had gained while working under our father.
Looking after the garden was neither exciting nor high paying, but that didn’t matter. It taught me that any job was a good job and whatever I was paid was more than I had before.
A newspaper reporter once asked me how someone could possibly live with hard work and low pay. “If you’re only thinking about hard work and money, you probably don’t want to do better than you are doing,” I answered. In every job, from cutting the grass to washing dishes, I’ve learned much. I’ve learned something that helps me in my next job.
If you work hard enough, you can learn from any job you do.

In the world today, all of the people need recreation(消遣). We can not work all the time if we are going to keep healthy and enjoy life.
Everyone has his own way of relaxing. Perhaps the most popular form is to take part in sports. There are team sports, such as basketball and football. There are also individual(个人的) sports, such as swimming and running. Skating and mountain climbing are the most popular recreation for people who like to be outdoor(室外的).
