After the children returned to the classroom，the teacher opened their eggs one by one，（26）encouraging（encourage） each child to explain the meaning of"new life"in his or her egg．The first opened egg contained a flower．Everyone cheered．In another was a butterfly．（27）Whenthe teacher opened the last egg，it was empty．"That's stupid．Whose is it？"said someone．The teacher felt a pull at his shirt．It was Philip．Looking up，Philip said，"It's （28）mine．I did it．It's empty．I have new life，because the tomb is empty．"At that time，not a sound （29）was heard（hear） in class at all．From that day on，Philip became a real part of the group．They forgot his disease and welcomed him，and （30）whatmade him"different"was never mentioned again．

12．Keeping a diary in English is one of the effective ways to improve our English writing ability．
Compared with other forms of writing，it is shorter and takes（61）less（little） time．It can help us to develop the habit of thinking in English．If we persist in this practice，gradually we'll learn how（62）to express（express）ourselves in English．In keeping a diary in English，we certainly run up against many（63）difficulties（difficult）．In the first place，it often happens that we have trouble in（64）finding（find） appropriate words and phrases to give expression to our mind．Secondly，there（65）are（be） many idiomatic ways of saying things in Chinese．And it is extremely hard for us to put them into English （66）properly （proper）．
As far as I am（67）concerned（concern），my suggestion is（68）thatwe should always have a notebook and a Chinese-English dictionary within easy reach．Whenever something beats us，we can first put it down in our notebook and then consult our dictionary．We can also ask our English teacher（69）forhelp，if necessary．In short，I believe that it is of great use to keep a diary in English for（70）the development of our writing skills．

The sky used to be very close to the ground．In fact，it wasn't any （51）higher （high） than a man's arm when he raised it above his head．Whenever anybody got （52）hungry （hunger），all he had to do was to reach up and break off a piece of the sky and eat it．That way，no one ever had to work．
Well，it was a fine （53）arrangement （arrange）for a while，but sometimes people would break off more than they could eat，and they just threw （54）what they couldn't eat on the ground．After all，the sky was so big that there would always be enough for everybody to eat．What did it matter if they broke off more than they （55）actually （actual） wanted？
Maybe it didn't matter to them，（56）but it mattered to the sky．In fact，it made the sky angry to see itself lying on the ground，half-eaten，like rubbish．The sky didn't say a word，but with great anger，it lifted itself （57）up as high as it could and that was pretty high．
When the people realized what was happening，they began crying and （58）begging （beg） the sky to come back．But they sky （59）acted （act） like it didn't hear a word．
The next day，the people didn't have a thing （60）to eat （eat），and they had to go to work to feed themselves，and that's why man is working to this very day．
