When I was a girl growing up，I cannot once ever remember either my mum or my grandma wasting food.
Anything we didn't eat at one meal was leftovers（剩菜）.I can remember my grandma making a huge pot of potatoes.We would all eat until we were full enough，but there were always about half of the potatoes leftover.A few days later，Grandma would take those potatoes out of the fridge，boil some noodles，add some vegetables and mix them all together.And I also remember when I watched my mum fry bacon （煎培根）for us in the mornings，she would always take the oil carefully and pour it into a bottle.Then she would use it later to add flavor to so many other dishes.I was an adult before I realized that potatoes didn't actually taste like bacon!
I learned their lessons well，and after I grew up，I tried to never waste food myself.I always planned the week's meals ahead of time and only bought what was on my shopping list so that nothing went to waste.Every meal went into our stomachs and any leftovers were later eaten by either myself my boys，my husband or my dogs.To me，throwing food into the bin was just wrong.
However，when it comes to living，there are no leftovers.Life is just like a feast.Each moment that you don't live is lost forever.Life cannot be saved or stored.Each day is a fresh beginning.Live each moment of your life to the fullest，then.

Mr. Happy always woke up with a sunny smile． He was one of the most cheerful （1） （man） in the world． His smile was even（2） （bright） than the sun． However， He had one secret that made him sad， but nobody knew about it．
Then one day， while going out， （3） a walk，Mr. Happy met Miss Beautiful．Mr. Happy smiled as usual and Miss Beautiful smiled back．But then she stopped and looked at Mr. Happy（4） （angry）．
"How rude!" she shouted．"Young man， don't you know that you should raise your hat （5） you meet a lady!"
For（6） first time in his life， Mr. Happy lost his smile．"I'm sorry，" Miss Beautiful． replied Mr. Happy，"But without （7） （I）hat on， I'm not very good﹣looking and that makes me sad．"
"Really？" asked Miss Beautiful．"Well， let me see． I promise（8） （keep） the secret．
Mr. Happy（9） （lift） his hat． He had the total of only three hairs on his head!
"Is that all you're worried about？" asked Miss Beautiful．" Why？Your bright sunny smile（10） （love） by everybody， not how many hairs you have!" Miss Beautiful smiled．
Ever since that day， Mr. Happy hasn't stopped smiling． He is always quick to raise his hat to everyone he meets．
In a few hours Sam would be flying to Germany． We looked at each other but no sound broke the silence of my beach﹣side house．
Such a moment was not the first time for me．On Sam's first day of kindergarten （幼儿园），I felt his stress when holding his hand．He looked at me﹣as he did now． But I said nothing till the school bus came．About ten years later，I drove him to the college． He was sick but I didn't know then． I thought he was just too tired． I tried to think of something to say as he would start a new period of life． Again，___________．
Now， as I stood before him， I thought of those opportunities we parents all let pass． A boy graduates from school，a daughter gets married．We seldom find a quiet moment to tell them what they have meant to us． Or what they might face in the future．
Sam was weak when he was born but grew into a strong boy．Then he became the best baseball player in high school． His finest moment came when he got the first prize at a science fair．I was sorry he gave up his athletic talent，but proud that later he chose English literature．One day，I told Sam I regretted never traveling abroad to know better about the world before working．Sam decided to learn German in Berlin，even though his friends thought it meaningless．
The night before he was to leave， I failed to say any words again． Maybe， I thought， it wasn't necessary to say anything．
What does it matter if a father never tells a son what he really thinks of him？ But as I stood before Sam，I knew it does matter． My father and I loved each other． However，I always regretted never hearing him put his feelings into words．
"Sam，"I said，"if I could have picked，I would have picked you．"I wasn't sure he understood what I meant． Sam came towards me and threw his arms around me，saying"thank you"．My eyes misted over （模糊）． Then， the moment ended， and Sam left home．
That was seven weeks ago， and now I think about him when I walk along the beach near my home on weekends． Thousands of miles away， Sam might be busy walking in the street of Berlin．
What I had said to Sam was not new． It was nothing．But，it was everything．

Last summer I got the chance to spend a month helping out in a hospital in Africa． I had one year left at school， and I was（1） （interest） in studying medicine at university．
It was a month that changed my life．I（2） （introduce） to a world that is very different to mine in so many ways．I was shocked at how poor so many（3） （family） over there are and how difficult their lives can be．But I was also surprised at how positively people spend（4） （they） daily lives．The way they come together and help each other is a real inspiration，and something I think a lot of us here in the UK have forgotten．I think many of us don't realize（5） lucky we are．My work in the hospital was hard． Not only did I spend a lot of time cleaning floors，but（6） I got to spend some time looking after the patients．And I got the chance（7） （talk） to some doctors and ask them about the job．I saw some truly awful things in the hospital，（8） none of them changed my mind about being a doctor．（9） fact， they only made me more determined to do medicine!

It was last January， when I'd just finished a charity （慈善） and was on the train back home， that I put down my phone and started writing thank﹣you notes to people who had helped，
When I got off the train， I felt amazingly good． The next day，I wrote more thank﹣yous and the same feeling of happiness hit me again． I suddenly had the idea： Why not keep on doing this for every day of the year？

It's late evening in the middle of the winter． The snow is deep， but off I go into the wild．Suddenly， I hear it： the howl （嚎叫） of wolves． Excitedly， I walk faster in the direction of the howling．
I've been working as a volunteer wolf tracker in Yellowstone National Park for over a year． It's my job to follow wolves to record information about them． Like wolves， however， I don't work alone． I'm one of a team of people who have been in a project to help reintroduce wolves to the park．
Humans have always feared wolves． From fairy tales to movies， the wolf is always the bad guy a danger to humans and other animals． In the 1920s， the organizers of the park shared this view about wolves and made the decision to drive them away from the park．As a result，the number of elk（麋鹿）in the park increased． The elk started looking for food near river banks since they didn't have to worry about wolves．This， in turn， stopped trees from growing along the rivers， doing great harm to the environment there．
The return of wolves has already made a big difference． To begin with， the elk soon learned to stay away from the rivers， so new trees have been able to grow there． The trees become home to new wildlife， such as birds， and provide food for more animals．
The park is now becoming more and more popular with those who want to see wolves in their natural environment． It has also helped the local people make more money， Tourists visit the area，stay in the local hotels， and eat in the local restaurants．
Looking at the wild animals and the beautiful sceneries around me， I am amazed at the changes the wolf has made to Yellowstone．And happily，it is playing a good guy in this story．

The teacher asked carefully，"How did you get the scar on your face？"
The mother answered，"When my son was a baby，he was in a room，and the room caught fire．Everyone was too afraid to come in，so I went in．When I was running to his bed，I saw a piece of wood coming down and I placed myself over him trying to protect him．I was senseless：but luckily，the fireman came in and saved both of us．"She touched the scar of her face．"This scar will be lasting，but to this day，I have never regretted what I did．"

It was a cold，rainy day.My mother and I drove to the mountains.It was dangerous to make the two﹣hour journey along the highway in such weather.I didn't want to take the risk.But my mother advised that we go to see something at the top of the mountain.
After ten minutes' driving，we stopped the car and got out.Walking along a path，we turned at a comer.Gradually，the peace and silence of the place began to fill my mind.From the top of the mountain，I saw several fields full of flowers，shining like a carpet （地毯）before us.It looked as if the sun spilled （播洒）gold down the mountain.

Mr． and Mrs． March lived together with their four daughters． Amy was very shy． Beth loved being at home． Meg looked very pretty． Jo was tall and thin and she was a tomboy.. Their home was always busy and full of noise and people． Next to them lived old Mr． Laurence and his grandson， Laurie． They lived in a very large and comfortable house． But it was a house without life．
One day， Joe saw Laurie standing at an upstairs window in his house and looking down at their garden． Jo's sisters were playing in the snow there． They were throwing snowballs and having a lot of fun． But Laurie's face was very sad．
"Poor boy!" Jo thought． "He's all alone． He needs some friends．" She couldn't stop thinking about him． She wanted to go and see him， but how could she go to the house without an invitation？
Then one snowy afternoon， she saw Laurie's grandpa go out． This gave her an idea． She took a broom from the kitchen．
"What are you going to do， Jo？" asked her sister Meg．
"To clear the garden path．" Answered Jo．
When Laurie saw Jo from the window， a big smile changed his pale， sad face．
Jo laughed and shouted， "How are you？ Are you ill？"
Laurie opened the window and said，" I'm better now， thank you． I had a bad cold and had to stay inside for a week"．
"I'm sorry，" said Jo． "Are you bored？"
"Yes， very．" he replied．
"Don't your friends come to visit you？"
"No． But I don't want to see anybody． Boys are noisy and they give me a headache．"
"Girls are quiet．"
"I don't know any girls．"
"You know us．"
"That's true! Can you come and visit me？" cried Laurie．
" I'm not quiet， but I'd like to come，" replied Jo． "I must ask Mother first．" She ran back into her house．
A few minutes later， she returned and rang the bell on the door of laurie's house． A servane took her upstairs．
"Here I am!" she said brightly． "Mother sends her love and my sisters gave me this blancmange （牛奶冻） for you．"
"That looks delicious，" Laurie said． He was very happy to see Jo．
Jo looked around． There were lots of books on the shelves．
"A nice room!" she said． "I can read to you if you like．"
"No， let's talk，" replied Laurie．
"All right，" said Jo， "I can talk for hours． My sisters say I never know when to stop．"
"You have three sisters﹣Amy， Beth and Meg．" Laurie continued．
"How do you know this？" Jo was surprised．
"You call each other's names when you are in the garden． Sometimes I can see you all around the table with your mother． She has a very kind face． I like looking at her． I haven't got a mother．"
Jo felt sad when she heard this．
"Why don't you come and visit us？" she said， "It isn't good for you to stay in this house all the time．"
"Thank you． I'd like to come very much．" Said Laurie．
"We know all our neighbours except you．" Jo said， " I'm glad we're friends now．"
She told him about all the interesting things in her life． She said，" Besides（除了……之外） plays， I also love books．" Laurie loved books too， and offered to show her the library in the house． The library was a wonderful room． Jo loved it．
"Wow!" she said， "All those books!"
Laurie said， "A person needs more than books．"
