摘要：(1) If I Were a Boy Again If I were a boy again, I would practice perseverance more ofen,and never give up a thing. If we want light,we must conquer darkness.Perseverance can sometimes­ 21 genius in its results. “There are only two 22 , says a proverb, “Who can surmount the pyramids----the eagle and the snail. If I were a boy again, I would school myself into a habit of 23 ; I would let nothing come between me and the subject in hand. I would remember that a good skater never tries to skate in two 24 at once. The habit of attention becomes part of our life, if we begin early enough. I ofen hear grow-up people say, “I could not pay attention to the book, although I wished to do so . The reason is that the habit was not 25 in youth. If I were to 26 my life again,I would pay more attention to the cultivation of the memory. It takes a little hard work at first to remember things accurately, but memory soon helps 27 , and gives very little trouble. It only needs early 28 to become a power. If I were a boy again, I’d cultivate courage. Nothing is so mild and gentle as courage; nothing is so cruel and pitiless as cowardice. Life is very much like a 29 : if you smile upon it,It smiles back upon you; but if you frown and look doubtful on it, you will get a 30 look in return. Finally, if I were a boy again, I would look on the cheerful side. I’d still try harder to make others happy. 21. A. explore B. equal C. overcome D. bury 22.

Youth, however, comes and goes in a 22 moment. Packaging for the middle-aged is primarily to hide the furrows ploughed by time. If you still 23 life’s exuberance enough to keep self-confidence and pursue pioneering work, you are unique in your natural 24 , and your charm and grace will remain. Elderly people are beautiful if their 25 of life has been, through plains, mountains and jungles, 26 its course as it should. You have really lived your life which now arrives at a satisfactory stage of peacefully indifferent to fame of 27 . There is no need to resort to hair-dyeing; the snow-capped mountain is itself a beautiful scene of fairyland. Let your looks change from young to old 28 the natural ageing process so as to keep in harmony with nature, for harmony itself is beauty, while the other way round will only end in 29 .

I gave up all my other 21 , such as playing computer games, 22 foreign coins and stamps, and spent all my spare time reading poetry and writing it. This habit of writing poetry on every possible 23 soon got me into trouble at school. If a lesson did not interest me, I would take out my note-book and start writing poems in class. Of course ,I did this very 24 , but it was not long before I got 25 . One day while l was busy writing a poem during a geogrophy lesson, I looked up to find the teacher standing over me, staring with anger because I was not 26 attention. He tore the poem up, with a 27 not to waste time in his lesson. All the same I was convinced that I had written a good poem, so that evening I wrote it out again from memory. Not long after, I read about a poetry contest and I decided to send in my poem. Weeks later, long after I had given up hope, I got a letter informing me I had won first 28 .

I had gone 21 several months of traumawith my left eye .Finally the doctors told me I would never see out of it again. This was most the devastating news I have ever 22 . I was in the military at the time, and my family was several thousand of kilometers away. I felt very alone. That night I found myself 23 on a railway station seat, waiting for the next train to come along so I could jump in front of it. Then this elderly 24 appeared and sat on the seat next to me. He turned to me and smiled. He then said, You look like you 25 a friend to chat to. We sat on that station for hours just chatting like old friends. At no stage was it 26 why I was there. But his words were so kind and heartfelt. As our chat 27 to a conclusion, he gave me the most beautiful hug. Then as he walked to get on a train, he said, remember, when you smile, it is because the angels are lifting the corners of your 28 up to heaven. with that, he gave me a wink and disappeared onto a train. I was never to see him again except every day in my 29 . It took this act of kindness from a stranger for me to feel that I am a valuable person. A simple smile can brighten 30 day.

In the last act, a warder would always come on to the stage with a letter, which he would 21 to the prisoner. 22 the noble was expected to read the letter at each 23 , he always insisted that it should be written out in full. One night, the warder decided to 24 the actor to find out if, after so many 25 , he had managed to learn the 26 of the letter by heart. The curtain went up on the final act of the play and revealed the aristocrat sitting alone behind bars in his dark cell. Just then, the warder 27 with the precious letter in his hands. He entered the 28 and presented the letter to the aristocrat. But the 29 he gave him had not been written out in full as usual. It was simply a blank sheet of paper. The warder looked on eagerly, 30 to see if his fellow actor had at last learnt his lines. The noble stared at the blank sheet of paper for a few seconds. Then , squinting his eyes, he said, “the light is dim(暗).Copy the letter to me. He handed the sheet of paper to the warder to see that he could not remember a word of the letter either, the warder replied, “ the light is indeed dim, sir. I must get my glasses. With this, he hurried off the stage.

There are not too many people that will 21 with that statement. Teenagers are faced with serious problems and decisions at an early age. In fact most teenagers’ daily schedulesare as 22 as those of an adult’s. I have been working since I was thirteen, and always in positions in which I was working with adults . I have had to learn to think and 23 like an adult to be taken seriously. So, I count myself as one who has grown up too fast. I just graduated from high school, and have recently spent some time reflectingon the 24 eighteen years-thinking about myself, what I have gained, and what goals I have yet to achieve. We are expected to work hard, get excellent 25 , be in a good relationship, and know what we want to do in life. The list goes on and on. But the message is clear: We live in a society today that is 26 our childhood. We no longer have many years to be careless and fancy-free. We are expected to 27 the strict school rules and to excel in everything we do. I’ve known these things for a long time, and knew that they affected me. But, I never really admitted it until last night, when I learned a valuable lesson, taught to me by my boss where I work. We had finished a job at a remotesite. It was about 11:30 at night, and we had gone back to his house. We were talking about the 28 he had been making to his home. One of the things he said was “I 29 my basketball hoop. Then he threw a basketball to me. I hadn’t held a basketball in five years. We proceeded to shoot hoops for about 5 minutes. Both of us were terribly bad at it, but we spent the whole time 30 like children. Then I realized something: I am still a child. Oh, the law says I’m an adult.

But 11-year-old Amy Jones had the chance to 1 more about her 2 job -- a medical biologist m when she won an essay writing competition for primary students. Amy's 3 for the best essay on "What I want to be when I'm older" was a day at the Oxford Medical Science Institute. Staff organized a special programme for the would-be 4 , introducing her to the projects being worked on by medical biologists at Oxford. The sessions included a look at the 5 of medical biologists in fighting cancer and 6 to become a medical biologist. Amy said she was 7 to become a biologist after watching a television programme. In her essay she wrote: "The medical biologist plays a big part in many discoveries and it would be a challenging, exciting and 8 job." Dr Kathryn Robson, the Institute director said: "It's 9 that we encourage young people to study science and think about scientific research as a job.
