When I       that she ought to get a life, she replied, "I work five days a       , clean my house on Saturday, go to church on Sunday. I don't need a 1ife. I need help."
When we fell on hard times, she said, "Life is a        . Sometimes you give, other times you take. Either way, it's al1 the same one. But try to remember how hard it is to take, because one day, you will do the giving.'"

Do you want to be successful in everything you do? If so, then        ? Here is an example.
There was a farmer who       corn （玉米） all his life. Each year he took his corn to the market. Then each time his corn was chosen as the       and won the first prize.
One year a newspaper reporter interviewed him and learned something         about how he grew it. The farmer       his seed（做种子的) corn to his neighbors.
"How can you share your best seed corn with your neighbors?" the reporter asked. "You know they are taking part in the       with you each year."
"Why, sir," said the farmer, "didn't you know? The     picks up pollen (花粉) from the corn and moves it quickly from field to field. If my neighbors grow       corn, cross-pollination (异花传粉) will affect the quality of my corn. So if I want to grow good corn, I must       my neighbors to grow good corn. "
The farmer knows much about the connection of life. His corn cannot improve      his neighbor's corn improves.
As a great man says, "We make a living by what we         ； we make a life by what we give." We can't      without food, clothes, and many other things. However, a meaningful life is not decided by how much we can get,       by how much we can give others. Giving, instead of taking, makes us         from other animals.
So those who choose to live well must help others to live well and those who choose to be happy must help others to find       in their life.

On every packet of cigarettes(香烟), people are warned against the       of smoking: “Warning: Cigarette Smoking Is Dangerous to Your Health”.      , millions of them start smoking or go on smoking. Why?
Facts show that families and surroundings(环境) play a very important part in       smokers. All those smokers come from smoking families or have smoking       or relatives. Films and TV plays also play a part. People       their “heroes” on TV drinking alcohol(酒) or smoking cigarettes. “Heroes” seem to fear      , neither killing themselves nor killing others with alcohol and cigarettes.
