Being blind,deaf,unable to walk or use your hands easily is something most people can’t imagine. But there are many people who face these chanenges, and I am one of them. Because I can’t use my arms or legs ,normal things like answering the phone，opening and shutting doors or carrying things have always been difficult for me. Then one day last year, a friend of said that she would like to help me out. She said she would talk to “Animal Helpers” to see if it would be possible for me a specially trained dog. She also thought a dog might I told her that I love animals and that I’d love to have a dog.
After six months of training with a dog at “Animal Helpers”, I was able to him home. My dog’s name is “Lucky”-a good name for him because I feel very lucky to have him. You see, I’m only able to have a “dog-helper” your kind donation!
does Lucky help me, you might ask? Well, he to understand different instructions. For example, I say,”Lucky! Fetch my book,”and he does it at once. He is very clever and understands many English words, some difficult ones like “downstairs”.
Lucky is an amazing dog. I’ll send you a photo of if you like, and I could show you how he helps me too one day. And so I thank you again for “Animal Helpers”.

Last Sunday the elephant keeper at London Zoo, Jim Robson, (kill) by one of the elephants he loved. This was terrible, and it could be a big problem for the future of London Zoo—and maybe for all of Britain’s city zoos.
London Zoo said that it (move) its three elephants to a wild animal park outside London. Its director-general（总经理）, Michael Dixon, said, “We are sorry that the elephants
(leave); there
(be) elephants at London Zoo since 1831.”
One British newspaper said that though many small animals were very interesting, most people wanted to see big animals—and most of all elephants.
London Zoo is not only losing its elephants. The tigers will also leave soon and most of the bears have already gone. Outside the elephant house at London Zoo, a woman (call) Mary said she wished the zoo
(keep) big animals. “This is the only way the young people can see animals without
(travel) to other countries,” she said.
Zoos are not very good places for animals, but they can help to well keep them. Children can also learn a lot about the animals when they visit zoos.
Another visitor, a man called Alan, was very angry. “If the elephants (send) back to the wild, they will die. If you take away big animals, people will stop
(visit) London Zoo. It can survive （继续生存）at the moment, but it
(not survive) in the future. "
However, Mary Rosevear, director of the Federation of Zoos, believes that city zoos can survive without keeping large animals.
A long time ago, there was a big apple tree. A little boy loved to come and play with it every day. But time went by, the little boy had 32 and he no longer played around the tree.
One day, the boy came back to the tree. “Come and play with me,” the tree asked the boy. “I am no longer a 33 I can’t play with you now.” The boy replied, “I need 34 .” “Sorry, I don’t have any. But you can pick all my apples and 35 them.” The boy picked all the apples on the tree and left happily. He didn’t come back. The tree was sad.
The other day, the boy returned and the tree was so 36 . “Come and play with me.” The tree said. “I need a house for my family. Can you help me?” “You can cut off my branches（枝干）to build your house.” 37 the boy cut all the branches of the tree and left happily.
The tree was glad to see him happy, but the boy didn’t come since then. The tree was lonely again. One hot summer day, the boy came back again after he left for so many years. “Sorry, my boy. But I don’t have 38 for you anymore.
“I don’t need much now, just a place to rest. I am 39 after all these years.” The boy replied. “Good! Please sit down with me and have a rest.” The boy sat down and the tree was glad and smiled with tears…
This is a story of everyone. The tree is like our parents. When we were young, we loved to play with them. But when we grow up, we 40 them, and only come to them when we are41 trouble. You may think that the boy is cruel（残忍）to the tree, but that’s how many of us are treating to our parents. A. grown up B. dressed up C. got up

I showed him newspaper articles of my accident. “There is a whole life waiting for us out there! But I am not going to you. You are going to walk yourself.”
I limped a few steps toward him and showed him what I'd taken out of my pocket. “Now show me you are a man.” I said．He bent to take his stick from the ground and struggled(挣扎) out of that wheelchair．He managed it on his own and walked to me and never sat in a wheelchair in his life.”
