In the （1） （south） part of China，eating qingtuan at the beginning of spring is a kind of tradition.Chinese people （2） （start） to eat it more than 2，000 years ago.It is made of sticky rice（糯米）and red bean paste（红豆沙），and is famous for its softness，freshness and sweetness.

A man had a garden． He planted a rose and watered it c（1） ． Before the rose blossomed （盛开），he noticed many thorns （刺） around the bud （花蕾） and he thought，"H（2） can any beautiful flower come from a plant with so many sharp thorns？" Because of this i（3） ， he lost interest in this kind of plant， then he gave up watering the rose． And just b（4） it was ready to blossom， it died．
Good qualities are just like roses． There is a rose in e（5） spirit． The good qualities planted in us at birth， grow among the thorns﹣our weaknesses．Many of us look at o（6） and we only see our weaknesses．We lose heart，thinking that n（7） good can possibly come from us．We give up watering the roses in us， and slowly they die． We never realize the g（8） of being able to find out our good qualities．
Someone may not see the rose in himself，so we need to help him d（9） the rose．With love， we can accept a person into our life，even though we know his true weaknesses．At the same time，we should e（10） him to face his weaknesses bravely and correct them． Then he will blossom many times．

A Spring Morning
This spring morning in bed I'm lying，
Not to awake till the birds are crying．
After one night of wind and showers，
How many are the fallen flowers!
