The world was sharply separated into men and women, because that was the way we believed it should be. We hold this firm belief and made efforts to keep this 1. When a baby came to the world, he or she was expected to play different roles—boys were portrayed as noisy and naughty ones who people were more likely to 2 while girls were bound by strict social requirements to be lovely and 3. People became the product of their sex. Their social roles were determined when they were 4. Males were the producers of cool reasoning and were capable of 5. And being emotional was considered as the feature of females and their main activity location was 6.
7, with the development of civilization and women’s self-consciousness, more and more women have realized that such natural and physical differences between man and woman have no 8 with the differences between male and female excellence. Women are now confident to 9 the concepts as “male leadership” and “male power”, which are only terms invented by men and serve in men’s 10.
Such remarkable change in people’s viewpoint may well explain the gradual 11 of single-sex schools. The aim of education is to stimulate imagination, encourage free thinking and keep alive various interests. But the single-sex school follows the same regulations and 12 a set of separate subjects for males or females. In single-sex schools, instead of being offered a rich expansion of experience, students have access to 13 knowledge. Such education harms individual freedom and kills the possibility for a young person to develop into a(n) 14 human. Furthermore, such sexual distinction is also dangerous as it breaks up the sense of community by 15 people into two sex groups, which eventually damages the development of human civilization.

We all know that some things are obviously right. For example, it is right to be1to other people. It is also right to look after the environment. Some things are2wrong, too. For instance, we should not hurt or bully(欺负) others, nor should we litter. Rules often tell us what is right or wrong.
Rules can help the public make the right3,and remain safe. Car drivers have to obey traffic regulations that tell them the right things to do on the road to avoid crashes. Cyclists who give signals before turning or stopping help prevent4.
If people follow rules without taking other matters into consideration, it will be5for them to form what is sometimes called a “black and white” view. For example, they may believe that people should always tell the truth, and that lying is6acceptable. Such people always stick to their views, even if it means that they may get into7.
Sometimes it may not be so easy to know8what is right or wrong. Some people choose not to eat meat because they believe that it is9to eat animals, but others argue that they can eat meat and10be kind to animals; some insist that stealing is always wrong, but others think that one does not need to feel to11when stealing some food to eat, if lives in a really poor area and he is12. Rules help us live together in harmony, because they show us the right way to13other. However, some people argue that rules may be14, having observed that rules change all the time , and that some schools have some regulations and other have different ones ----so who is to15what is right ?

Never before had I imagined I should have the opportunity to live with so many girls.Would they1such a single “Hi” from me? I was about to greet my new roommates，2they did not seem to have the same3attention that I had.They just dealt with their own4， sorting out their clothes，and making arrangements for their university life.Thus tranquility(宁静)
became the5atmosphere in the dormitory.
To my surprise，6such a situation，I did not feel a sense of7.With time going on，we got to know each other deeper.I was8to find that in deep soul we all had great dreams and belonged to the same9.
However，not long before the 10was disturbed by my own upset of mind for study pressure.What I was11about seemed to have 12to do with them and what they were doing and talking about seemed so far away from me.However，one incident changed my13and made me treasure this kind of14better and more confident in our friendship.
One day，when I was leaving the teachers’ office，it was in complete silence and frightening15.At my dormitory gate，I was startled (使惊奇)to find there still 16a little light glimmering in the darkness，so faint but yet so clear.Just under the17of the light，I went to the room without any difficulty.They were in sound sleep，leaving the18ight on in the calm world.Tears rolled down my cheeks.
I know19that we all like tranquility，both in environment and in our mind.It is the care that20all the misunderstandings and unpleasantness.

After the earthquake hit northeast Japan on March 11, many moving stories that I saw with my own eyes happened around me.
I had to walk home since all the 1had stopped after the earthquake. On my way home I 2an old lady at a bakery shop(面包店) who was giving out free bread, which made my heart 3. A man was holding a sign(招牌) that said, “Please use our 4.” He was 5his house for people who were homeless to have a rest .
My friend wanted to 6others. He stood in the cold with a sign “If you’re okay with a motorcycle, I will 7you to your house.” And then I saw him take one gentleman home, all the way to a faraway place!
Then next day I drove to 8my car with gas. There is a lack (缺乏) of9 now after the quake and many gasoline stations are either closed or have very 10lines. I got 11, since I was behind 15 cars. Finally, when it was my 12, the man smiled and said, “13this bad situation after the quake , we are only giving $30 worth gas to each person. Is that all right?” “14. I’m just glad that we are all able to 15with each other .” I said. His smile gave me so much comfort.
I saw a man at the evacuation (疏散) center burst into16when people brought food to him. It was the first time in three days that food was brought to their center. However, after he wiped the tears, his next 17surprised me. “I am very 18that we are provided with food. But people in the city next to us haven’t 19any food at all. Please go to that center as well.” And when hearing that, I realized there is a bright future on the other side of this terrible 20.

When I was a teenager I volunteered to work at the water station at a 10,000m race. My job was to1 water to the runners. I remember being so2 to see all the different kinds of people who passed by and grabbed a cup of water. Some ran past, some walked past and a few wheeled past. I saw so many types of people doing it. I thought maybe I could do it too! So the next year I3 up for the race.
That first 10,000m race was quite an experience. I jogged, I walked, I jogged and I walked4, I didn’t know if I could finish. Then came a defining (决定性)5 .
At one point near the end, a 70-year-old man ran past me, very, very fast, and I felt6 because I was 50 years younger than he but I couldn’t even keep up with him. I felt7 for a second.
But then I realizedsomething. He was running his race and I was running mine. He had8abilities, experience, training and goals for himself. I had mine. Remember my9 was only to finish.
After a minute, it10 me that this was a lesson I could draw from. I learned something about myself in that moment. I turned my embarrassment into11.
I decidedthat I would not give up on running races. In fact, I would run even more races and I would learn how to train and prepare12 and one day I would be one of those 70-year-old persons who were still running. As I crossed the finish line, I was proud of my accomplishment. In life we all have those moments where we13ourselves to others. It’s only natural . Don’t allow those moments to14 you. Turn them into motivation and let them inspire you. With the proper preparation and training, you can improve your result to15anything you want in life.

Are you a man or a mouse? When people ask this question they want to know whether you think you are a 1person or a coward (懦夫). But you will never really know the answer to this question 2you are tested in real life. Some people think they are brave, but when they come face to face with real 3, they act like cowards. Others think of themselves as cowards, but when they meet danger, they act like heroes.
Lenny had always thought of himself as a 4person. He got worried before examinations. He worried about his job and health. All he wanted in life was to be safe and healthy. Then on January 15th, 2002, a plane crashed into the Potomac River in Washington. Lenny happened to see a woman in the ice-cold water. He did not feel afraid. He5very calm and did a very dangerous thing. He jumped into the Potomac, 6to the woman, and kept her head 7the water. Seventy-eight people died that day. Thanks to Lenny, it was not 8.
When you are in a very dangerous situation and feel afraid, the body automatically(自动地) produces a chemical called adrenalin in the blood. With adrenalin in the blood system, you actually feel stronger and stronger and are 9to fight or run away. However, when you are terrified greatly, the body can produce too much adrenalin.10this happens, the muscles become very hard. You are then paralyzed (麻木) with fear. This is why when we are extremely frightened, we sometimes say we are “petrified”. This word 11a Greek word “petros”, which means “stone”. We are 12frightened that we become stonelike.

In 1977, a dead author of detective stories saved the life of a 19-month-old baby in a most unusual way. The author was Agatha Christie, one of the most successful writers of detective stories in the world.
In June 1977, a baby girl became seriously ill in Qatar, near Saudi Arabia. Doctors were unable to1the cause of her illness, so she 2 to London and admitted to Hammersmith Hospital, where specialist help was 3 . She was then only half-conscious(半昏迷) and on the “Dangerously Ill” list. A team of doctors hurried to4the baby only to discover that they,5 , were puzzled by the very unusual symptoms. While they were discussing the baby’s case, a nurse asked to 6to them.

“ 9 makes you think that?” Dr. Brown asked. “Thallium poisoning is extremely10.”
“A few days ago, I was reading a novel called A Pale Horse11 Agatha Christie,” Nurse Maitland explained. “In the book, somebody uses thallium poison, and12 the symptoms are 13. They are exactly the same as the baby’s.”
“You’re very observant and you may be right,” another doctor said. “We’1114some tests and find out15 it’s thallium or not.”
The16 showed that the baby had 17 been poisoned by thallium, a rare metal used in making optical(光学的) glass. 18 they knew the cause of illness, the doctors were able to give the correct treatment. The baby soon 19 and was sent back to Qatar. Inquiries(调查)showed that the poison20 from an insecticide(杀虫剂)used in Qatar.
