About a week ago, when I was playing basketball at our city park, I noticed a small group of boys picking on作弄a smaller boy. They were calling his names and even pushed him to the ground and kicked something in his face. When I saw that, I walked over to the group.
I stepped     them and the smaller boy, and asked them politely what this boy had done. One of the boys replied, “He’s weird.” Then I asked one of the boys if he thought his friend was weird, and the     was “No.” So, I asked another boy what the word “weird”      , and he said, “Different.” That was my cue暗示. I told them that everyone was     , and that they all looked just as different to the other boy as he did to them. They all stood     for a moment, and then the most amazing thing happened. One of the boys helped the small boy off the ground and then said sorry to him. He even     him to play with them.
I thanked the boy for being so brave. As I looked around, I realized that there were many other people at the park     no one else had stopped to help this boy. I felt happy that the boy was     to stand up against his friends to help someone in need, but I felt sad that    else had even taken a second look.
I hope that I’ve helped them realize that they could make a     with a little effort and maybe next time they will be the ones who choose to help.

Once, there was a big apple tree. A little boy loved to climb to the tree top, ate the apples and played around it. With time on, the little boy grew up. He no longer played around it every day. One day, the boy came back, sad. “Come and play with me,” the tree said. “I am no longer a kid.” The boy replied, “I need money to buy toys.” “I don’t have money...,but you can pick all my apples and sell them.” The boy was so excited. He picked all apples and left happily. The boy never came back after that.
One day, the boy returned. “Come and play with me,” the tree said happily. “I have no time to play. We need a house for my family.” “You can cut off my branches.” So the boy cut all the branches off the tree and left happily. But he never came back since then.
Again, the boy returned and said. “I want to make a navigation across the sea. Can you give me a boat?” “Use my trunk(主干) to build your boat.” So the boy cut the trunk to make a boat. He went sailing and never showed up for a long time. Finally, the boy returned after he left for so many years. “Sorry, my boy. But I don’t have anything for you anymore. The only thing left is my dying roots.” the tree said with tears.
“I don’t need much now, just a place to rest. I am tired after all these years.” The boy replied.
“Good! Old tree roots is the best place to rest. Come and rest with me.” The boy sat down and the tree was glad and smiled with tears.
You may think that the boy is cold to the tree but that’s how we are treating our parents. The tree is our parent. When we were young, we loved to play with them. When we grow up, we leave them, and only come to them when we need something or when we are in trouble. Whatever we ask for, parents will give everything they have and always be there waiting for us home.
The apple tree in the passage is just like__________ in the life.

It's Saturday morning and Tony's sitting at the kitchen table, staring（凝视）into space and playing with a piece of bread. He's not even hungry. Is he ill? No, but he does have a problem. He has nothing to do and there's just one reason: the Internet is down and Tony has nothing to do.
When he woke up this morning, Tony was feeling great. He jumped out of bed full of plans for the weekend ahead. It would be a weekend like any other—a great weekend. But that was before he turned on his computer and wasn’t able to go online. No Internet changed everything.
Just as Tony is wondering how he can possibly have a normal weekend without the Internet, his mum walks into the kitchen. “Is everything OK?” she asks. “No, mum, everything is not OK,” her sad son replies. “I can't go online and I have homework to finish.” His mum laughs, “The word program is still working, so what's the problem?”
What's the problem? Tony can't believe his own mother isn’t able to see how serious the problem really is. To start with, he still needs to do research for his homework. He knows his mum will tell him to go to the library but he hates the library. It's so dark and uncomfortable. And forget homework—what about the rest of his weekend! Every weekend, he goes online to email friends. Then he reads the news to catch up on what's happening in the world. He plays a few online games and finishes the weekend off with an online chess game with his cousin Helen. The wonderful weekend-online! Now it's Saturday morning and he's not going to have access to（进入）the Internet for two whole days.

A TV series(电视剧) in England，Away from it all，has surprised everyone by becoming a success with young people across the country. Its success is surprising because the series is about the relaxing lifestyles of people who live in the country. There is none of the action that we usually see on TV today. There are also no stressful moments, busy offices or crowded cities. Away from it all is set in the peaceful English countryside and tells simple stories about people’s kindness.
The director(导演) of the TV series says that its success is a sign of teenagers suffering from(遭受) stress. They say that watching Away from it all helps teenagers forget about the pressures of exams and homework, and the troubles that fill the world today. They also say that it’s a good sign of today’s young people turning to happier TV series as it shows they want a happier and healthier world.
Although the series’ success might have a good side, many teachers and parents are worried, however. They say that some of their students and children spend more time before TV and are using Away from it all as an excuse for not finishing homework. Some children have even refused to learn for exams because they say that they can only get personal happiness by avoiding stressful situations.
And what do the experts say? Paula Ray, a doctor of education, says that TV can influence children’s lifestyles. But she says that if a child reacts(反应) strongly, it’s likely that there are other reasons for his change in behaviour(行为). She says that there is nothing wrong with watching Away from it all but suggests that parents should let their children know TV is not the same as real life.
The success of the new TV series is surprising because__________.

The director of Away from it all believes that the series helps young people deal with__________.

I'm here today to share a good lesson with you. It is a true story about astudent who studiedin Germany.
After years of hard work, this student graduated with amazing achievements. Everyone was sure thathe was going to get a good job easily and have a bright future. But to his surprise, he was not even given the chance for an interview! The third time he was refused, he couldn't help telephoning the company to ask whythey didn't want him. The answer was simple. “We don't offer jobs to dishonestpeople in Germany.”
What was wrong, you might wonder? The truth is, shortly after he arrived in Germany, this clever student found that it was easyto skip(逃票)buying subway ticketsin this country. So in order tosave money, he often went in the subway without a ticket. As a result, he had been caughtwithouta ticketmany times.
From this story, we learn that we may get short-term benefits in dishonest ways, but the truth will come outsooner or later and the cost is high. So remember: honesty is the bestrule.
Did the student often buy a ticket when he took the subway?

In class I _____________ lots of _____________.

A: Li Mei, as a ninth-grade student, you must be very tired, right?
B: Yes. We’re going to take the most important examination and we must review every subject.
A: _________
B: No. I have to get up at a quarter past six every morning and go to bed very late.
A: Why do you get up so early?
B: ___________
A: Does your mother also get up so early?
B: Yes. She cooks breakfast for me. __________
A: Your mother is so kind. Well, how do you memorize English words?
B: _________
A: Sounds great. _________ I want to learn from you.
B: OK, if you think it will help.

The teacher stood before his class and was going to hand out the final exam papers. “I know you have all worked hard to get    for this test.” He said. “And because I know you can do it well, I would like to offer a B to anyone who will choose not to take the test.” Many students jumped    to thank the teacher and left the classroom. The teacher looked at the students left in the classroom and said, “Does anyone else want to get a B? This is your last    .”Two more students decided to go out.
Only seven students stayed behind in the classroom. The teacher then    out the papers. There were three sentences on the paper: Congratulations! You have just got an A in this class. Keep  in yourself.
I never had a teacher    that, but I think it is a test that any teacher can and should give. Students who don’t believe in what they have learned are B students at most.
The same is true in our real life. The A students are those who believe in what they are doing because they have learned from both success and failure. They have learned life’s lesson, not only from school education   also from things happening in their lives. So they have become better people.
Scientists say that by the age of eight, 80% of what we believe about ourselves has already been formed. You are a big kid now, and you realize that you have some limits(局限). However, there is     you can’t do if you believe in yourself and keep going. Sir Edmund Hillary, the first person to the summit of Mount Everest(珠峰) said, “It’s not the summit of Mount Everest we got over but ourselves.”
