A man named Smith was sitting on his roof during a flood, and the water was up to his feet. Before long a fellow in a canoe passed and shouted, "Can I give you a lift to higher ground?"

  "No, thanks," said Smith. "I have faith in God and he will save me."

  Soon the water rose to Smith's waist. At this point a motor boat pulled up and someone called out, "Can I give you a lift to higher ground?"

  "No, thanks, I have faith in God and he will save me."

  Later a helicopter flew by, and Smith was now standing on the roof with water up to his neck. "Grab the rope, "shouted the pilot. "I'll pull you up."

  "No, thanks," said Smith. "I have faith in God and he will save me. "But after hours of struggling with water, poor exhausted Smith drowned and went to his reward. As he arrived at the Pearly Gates, Smith met God and complained about this. "Tell me, God, "he said, "I had such faith in you to save me and you let me drown. What happened?"

When my turn came, I  41 to stand up in front of all those students and  42 to their tricks. Mr. Hadley came over to me and again  43 me to read my report. I gave it back to him. He walked to the front of the  44 and said, "Yvonne has a very good report here and I think everyone  45 to hear her read it. If I hear anyone making  46 noises or making fun of her in any way, I will let you fail right here and now. Understood?"
Mr. Hadley walked back to me and  47 me the paper, asking me to go to the front of the class. I walked to the front of the class on legs  48 were shaking and I felt a(n)  49 in my chest. Everyone were all quiet, including those boys. I stood there trying to gain  50 .

It was the golden season. I could see the yellow leaves falling with the cool wind. For others, it is a/an       season, while for me, it is an annoying season. Tired from preparing for Postgraduate Entrance Examination, I decided to have a       along the Yanjiang Road in my university.

  “Autumn is a lonely season and life is       . The days in this season always get me down ”, I was in deep thought when the sound of a guitar       into my ears, like a stream flowing from the mountains. I was so surprised that I ran to see what it was. A young girl, sitting on the lawn, was       in playing her guitar. The music was so attractive that I listened quietly.

   Lost in the music, I did not realize that I had been standing for so long. But my _  __ did not seem to disturb her. Leaves were still falling. Every day when I passed by the lawn, I would see her playing her guitar. During the rest of the days in the season, life became interesting and I could  _ _  the courses carefully. Though we did not know each other, I thought we were always good friends.

   Autumn was nearly over. One day, when I was listening  _ _ , the sound suddenly stopped. To my astonishment, the girl came       to me.

  “You must like the music,” she said.

  “Yes, you play very well. Why did you stop?” I asked.

   Suddenly, a __ _ expression appeared on her face and I could feel something unusual.

    “I came here just to have a rest because I failed in the college entrance examination. I felt very disappointed. And it was your listening every day _ _ encouraged me,” she said, “and I have to go tomorrow.”

  “__ __, it was your playing that gave me a meaningful autumn and helped me believe that I have the ability to pass the Postgraduate Entrance Examination.” I answered, “I think it was God who gave us the chance to know each other and we should be good friends

   She smiled and I smiled.

   Since then, I have never seen her again. I no longer passed by that __ _. Only thick leaves were _     behind. But I will always remember the __ _ of the girl. It was her appearance that helped me passed the Postgraduate Entrance Examination.

   We may encounter many people in our lives. Some are like a shooting star, but      so much light that they guide you in the correct _   ; some are like _  in you, they are always with you, but do not understand you. Just as a famous saying, many people     in your life, but only true friends leave footprints.

   I shall always __ __ the autumn, the girl and the sound of her guitar. I know she will always be my best friend.
