"Where could Michael be？" I wondered aloud.

Michael was my classmate.He liked playing pranks on others.

He once put a sign that said "Sing to Me!" on（1） 　 　back.It was terrible.Everywhere I went，people I didn't even know started singing to me.When I realized what was happening，I got really（2） 　 　.

Another time，he embarrassed Nicole during sharing time.Nicole was shy.She

（3） 　 　shared；she always said， "Pass. " But what did Michael do when it was his turn to share？He asked， "Did everybody（4） 　 　how Nicole's new blue dress matches her eyes？ " Nicole's face turned bright red.Poor Nicole!

It was Valentine's Day that day.I was sure Michael was up to something somewhere，

（5） 　　he always was.No way was I going to let him pull a prank - ruining someone's Valentine's Day.

I（6） 　 　him everywhere.Lunch break was almost over.I must find him and stop him.When I got to the classroom，there was Michael Peterson，at Michael Rogers's desk，digging in his（7） 　 　of valentines !

"Hurry and help me， "said Michael as soon as he（8） 　 　me.

At first I thought he was stealing valentines from Michael Rogers's box.However，the more I watched，the more puzzled I became.He was putting valentines（9） 　 　.

Seeing my expressions，he told me that he found Michael Rogers's box was

10） 　 　when he was passing out his valentines.Michael Rogers was new and Mrs.Karcher must have forgotten to put his name on the list，so（11） 　 　made him a card.

I suddenly realized I had also（12） 　 　to prepare a valentine for Michael Rogers.

"But everyone made one for me，" Michael continued， "So I'm giving him my（13） 　 　.Since we've got the same name - Michael."

I stood there，not quite believing（14） 　 　 I was hearing. "Is Michael Peterson the one who always pulled pranks on us？" I asked myself.Maybe he was kind of（15） 　 　 in a hidden sort of way.

The summer I turned 12，I wished to grow up more quickly.

Summer camp was coming and I was so worried about my（1) 　 　that I'd gotten into a big argument with my mom.

But I'll（2） 　 　it!"I cried.I was certain that everyone would see me as nothing more than "the short girl".

You won't know anything（3） 　 　you get there， "calmed my mom.And I had to（4） 　 　.

On Monday，my teacher Maggie told us about the climbing course，and my heart sank when I saw the wall I was the（5） 　 　one to try to climb that huge wall.It might have been ten floors high，and knew that I had no（6） 　 　to succeed.But I had to，after the other campers finished.

I asked for a "short person's pass， "smiling（7） 　 　and walking around the wall.

"You know.Amy，what the mind can believe，the heart can achieve. "（8）    　Maggie. "I'd really like you to do your best to（9） 　 　the wall. "

I pretended（假装） to hurt my knee（10） 　 　I could avoid it.

"How's the knee？Does it hurt a lot？" Maggie asked.She was so kind,which made me feel（11) 　  　because I didn't like to lie.

Maggie was really patient，showing me（12） 　 　she climbed the wall.And some campers were there cheering for me.

I didn't want to（13） 　 　anymore，and I didn't want to give up again.I could see how much everyone believed in me，and I wanted to show them how much I valued their（14） 　 　,so I kept trying.

And then something（15） 　 　 happened-I made it! "What the mind can believe，the heart can achieve， " Maggie reminded me.And this time I knew it was true.

A 70﹣year old Chinese woman has been called "Super Grannie" after it was reported that she is （1） 　 　about running and has completed over 100 marathons （马拉松）so far.

Most people（2） 　 　to take it easy after they retire （退休），but Wang Guilan，from Liaoning，is（3） 　 　not one of them.She only started running at the age of 50，as a（4） 　 　to keep in shape，but soon realized it was her passion （酷爱）.She ran her first marathon in 2004 and hasn't（5） 　 　since then.From 2005 to 2017，she completed the Beijing Marathon thirteen times，and this year she set a new record，becoming the （6） 　 　person to ever complete the 168﹣kilometer Liaoning marathon.

Wang Guilan（15） 　 　believes that age is just a number，and plans to continue running and enjoying the sunset of her life for as long as her health allows it.
