The back door of the ambulance(救护车) was suddenly shut and the driver ran to the front, jumped into his seat, and started the engine. Inside were the1parents, Mr and Mrs Green, the mother holding their baby daughter Ally. The little girl had2food stuck in her throat and could hardly breathe.
The driver, Mr white,3his siren (报警器) and flashing light, and started speeding towards the nearest hospital, fighting against4. The cars ahead of him pulled out of the way as he drove through the 5. From the back of the6the parents were shouting at him to7 , since Ally had almost stopped 8. In front of him he saw some traffic lights, with the red “STOP” light shining. Mr White knew that he had no time to9, so he drove straight past the traffic lights, looking 10his left and right as he did so.
Coming towards him from his right was a taxi. The driver had the windows 11, since the car was air-conditioned, and he was playing his radio. He did not 12the ambulance. The lights were green, so he drove straight 13into the path of the ambulance.
Mr White tried to stop his ambulance but it was too late. It hit the taxi. Everybody was shaken but no one was hurt. Mr White looked to see14little Ally was. He was astonished to see relief (宽慰) instead of 15on the faces of the parents.
“Look!” cried Mrs Green. “She is 16again.”
“It must have been the17.” said her husband. “It 18the food out of her throat.” The baby’s color was turning to normal, and she was crying in a loud but healthy 19 .
They were all joyful, and quite forgot about the accident, the taxi, and the lines of20all around them.

With the introduction of family planning policies in the 1970s, most Chinese teenagers have no brothers or sisters.They get to be the beloved(心爱的)1child.But they may not realize that they will have to “2”the love as their3ones grow old.They will have to4lots of old people—their parents, grandparents, their5parents and grandparents.China is being6country.
According to the United Nations, an aging society refers to one710 percent or more of the population is over 60, or 7 percent or more is over 65. According to8from the Ministry of Civil Affairs, by 2008, Chinese over 60 years old made up 12 percent of the nation’s total population. The 9for those aged 65 or older was 8.3 percent.
In China, people have a belief that “parents raise children; then the children care for the parents as they get old”.But this10is under stress as the market ey puts millions of young Chinese on the road11better paying jobs.They are leaving their parents12.Now many families are looking more to the government than to their13for support when they’re old.China has increased its basic social security(基本社会保险)plan which is14protecting those15, including the old, the disabled and others.These programs are now broad,16they are still not highly developed.
As more people grow17, China will have fewer working people,18will slow down economic growth. According to a November 26 report in the Economic Information Daily, an expert said China should19its people to have more than one child in the future20China should keep its labor population and total population size stable(稳定的).

Some of my3work in Australia. Among the natives, there was an elderly man. I am sure that you have4been in a situation as difficult as that5old man’s. He was completely ignored by everyone. His6was disordered and dirty.
I told him, “Please let me7your house, wash your clothes, and make your bed.” He answered, “I’m8with this. Let it be.”
I said again, “It will be still better if you9me to do it.”
He finally10. So I was able to clean his house and wash his clothes. I11a beautiful lamp, which was covered with12. Only God knows how many13had passed since he last lit it.
I said to him, “Don’t you light your lamp? Don’t you ever14it?”
He answered, “No. No one comes to see me. I have no15to light it. Who would I light it for?”
I asked, “Would you light it every16my sisters came?”
He replied, “Of course.”
From that day on, my sisters committed (投入) themselves to17him every evening. We cleaned the lamp and he would18it every evening.
Two years passed. I had completely19that man. He sent this message: “Tell my friends that the light they lit in my life continues to20still.”

A young man was getting ready to graduate from college. He had wanted a beautiful1in a dealer’s showroom, and knowing his father could well2it, he told him that was all he wanted.
As Graduation Day came near, the young man expected 3that his father had bought the gift.4, on the morning of his graduation, his father called him into his own5. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He6his son a beautifully wrapped gift box. Curious, and somewhat7, the young man opened the box and found a lovely leather bound Bible，with the young man’s name written in gold. Angry, he8his voice to his father, and said, “With all your money you give me a Bible?” and 9out of the house.
Many years passed and the young man was very10in business. He had a beautiful home and wonderful family, but11his father was very old, and thought perhaps he should go to see him.12he could make arrangements, he received a telegram 13him his father had passed away and willed all of his14to his son. When he arrived at his father’s, sudden sadness and regret15his heart. He began to 16his father’s important papers and saw the still new gift-wrapped Bible, just as he had 17it years ago. With tears, he opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. His father had carefully 18a verse(诗), Matthew 7-11,“And if you, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall your Heavenly Father which is in Heaven, give to those who ask Him?”
As he read those words, a car key19from the back of the Bible. It had a tag(标签) with the dealer’s name, the same dealer who had the sports car he had desired. On the tag was the20of his graduation, and the words: PAID IN FULL.

As they went along, they saw lying in the path a pair of old shoes, which they supposed to 1 a poor man who was employed in a field close by.
The student turned to the professor, saying, “Let us play the man a 2: we will hide his shoes, and hide3behind those bushes and wait to see his reaction 4 he cannot find them.”
“My young friend,” answered the professor, “we should never 5ourselves at the expense of the poor. But you are 6and may give yourself a much greater pleasure 7 helping the poor man. Put a coin into each shoe, and then watch how the discovery 8him.”
The student did so.
The poor man soon finished his work, and came across the field to the path where he had left his 9. While he slipped his foot into one of his shoes, he felt something10. He bent down only to find the coin.
11 was seen upon his face. He gazed upon the coin, and then 12 him on all sides, but no person was to be seen. He went on to put on the other shoe: but his surprise was 13 on finding the other coin.
14, he fell upon his knees, looked up to heaven and uttered(说) aloud 15 , in which he spoke of his wife, sick and16, and his children without bread. Without the timely help, she would die.
The student stood there deeply17,and his eyes filled with tears. “Now,” said the professor, “are you not much more 18than if you had played your 19trick?”
The youth replied,“You have taught me a 20I will never forget: ‘One is happier to give than to receive.’ ”

One day I went into a shop for a specific sort of metal polish(擦光剂). While I was in the shop, I saw an older woman looking around at things, and thought I would begin a1 to light things up. We2 well and showed some of the beautiful items to each other. She said she was in the shop to purchase a wedding gift for a nephew, whose wedding she wouldn’t be able to attend.
We wandered off3 and met together again at the cash register. I4 on the beautiful bowl she had chosen, and how5 so many of the items were. She asked what I was6 , and I showed her my polish tube. I said I might buy more items when my kids had all7 and gone, but they weren’t in my8 right now. I just like to9 , as I would do in an art museum.
She asked me what some of my10 were, and I said I liked the salt and pepper shakers(搅拌器). She asked me to11 her where the shakers were, so we walked over. She12 my favorites and took them to the clerk.
I thought she was13 with my taste, and was going to add them to her nephew’s14 . No. They were purchased for me. They were worth ninety dollars. I couldn’t15it. She laughed and hugged me, and said her husband would16 know, but she really enjoyed being able to do that17 me. I never saw her again after that day,18 I think of her each time I put those beautiful objects on my table.
Remembering that19 helps me to stay aware and find opportunities to20 to others, though not in quite such a grand way!

One day a mother rat and her babies were out in an open field. They were playing and having a good time when 1 a hungry cat came on the scene! It hid2 a big tree and then 3 forward through tall grass4 it could almost hear them talk. 5 the mother rat and her babies knew6 had happened, the cat 7 from its hiding-place and started to run8 them.
The mother rat and her babies all 9 at once. They hurried towards10 home, which was under a pile of large stones. 11 the baby rats were12 scared that they could not run very 13. Closer and closer the cat came. In no time the cat could catch14. What was to be done?
The mother rat stopped running, 15 round and faced the cat,16, “Wow! Wow! Wow-wow!” just like 17 angry dog. The cat was so surprised and18 that it ran away.
The mother rat turned to her babies, “Now you see 19 important it is to learn20 second language!”

Two runners stand side by side at the starting line of a race. Both look every strong and fast. 1 one runner speeds ahead and wins the race. The other falls behind.
Some sportsmen can reach great goals2 the achievement of an Olympic gold medal while others3live up to their promise. What kind of 4 before a race or other event makes the 5?
Everyone knows that sportsmen work out to strengthen(加强) their 6. But research shows that strengthening the mind may be just as 7. Careful study shows that the best sportsmen win 8 because they think they can win.
Thinking positive(乐观的) thoughts seems to give possibility for 9 in sports. People who say to themselves over and over, “I know I can do this,” often find they have the 10 to win. On the other hand, people who think “I can’t win” often 11.
One procedure(步骤)that helps many sportsmen is creating 12 in the mind. They are told to think of each 13 they must make to win. Some use pictures that are more fanciful. One skater liked to 14 a star bursting inside her, 15 her with energy. Another sportsman who wanted to feel 16 pictured himself as a 17 floating(漂浮) in the air.
Next time you want to do something well, try training your 18 to help you. Perhaps a teacher or other instructor can help you plan your training. If you imagine yourself doing better, you may soon see 19 in what you 20 can do. Positive thinking and picture created in your mind can help you win!

Thanks to a combination of young businessmen, large numbers of university students and revitalization (新生) efforts by the local and national governments, today’s Nanjing has an1of youthful exuberance (繁茂) that would have been 2only a few decades ago.3, the city, a booming city of 6.5 million on the banks of the Yangtze River some 185 miles west of Shanghai, bears4resemblance to the former capital of China that suffered the worst cruelty and violence of World War II.
5Nanjing has shown a remarkable capacity for reinvention during its 2,500-year history. And in recent years, the city has moved6its tragic past to become a vital engine of China’s economic growth, thanks7to its position in the middle of China’s prosperous eastern seaboard. Growth has also8thanks to improved ground transportation: A new bullet train linking Nanjing and Shanghai started service last year,9travel time between the cities from several hours to just 75 minutes, and a Beijing-Shanghai high-speed line is10to open later this year, with a stop in Nanjing. Within the city, two metro lines were built in the last few years; 15 more are planned to begin service by 2030.
Signs of Nanjing’s11wealth and optimism can be seen everywhere. In the heart of the downtown Xinjiekou district, a bronze statue of Sun Yat-sen,12the father of modern China, looks13over a busy14area.
There is perhaps no more15symbol of the city’s transformation than the Zifeng Tower, a 1,480-foot skyscraper that opened its doors last May.16offices, restaurants and an InterContinental hotel, the tower is the second-tallest building in China and billed as the seventh-tallest in the world.
Underlying all this development is a large Chinese and17student population — there are several major universities, plus a branch of Johns Hopkins’s international studies school. In fact, art and music 18in all sorts of places.
On a larger19, local government officials and private investors are pushing the city as a rising center for contemporary art and architecture, hoping to attract20from the neon-bathed streets of its neighbor Shanghai.
