Many years ago, a 1. my friend David worked day and night, he was still not rich. One day, when he arrived h 2. after work, he found his 3-year-old daughter was decorating a box with some expensive wrapping paper. He thought she was w 3. money and became angry with her. He even p 4. his daughter by beating her. However, the little girl brought the box to her father the next morning and said, “This is for you, Daddy. Merry Christmas!” He was embarrassed (尴尬) by his overreaction (过激反应), but he became angry a 5. when he found the box was empty.
He shouted at her, “Don’t you know that when you give someone a present, there should be s 6. inside it?”
The little girl looked up at him with t 7. in her eyes and said, “Oh, Daddy. I blew kisses in the box. I filled it with my l 8. . All for you, Daddy.”
The father was very surprised. He put his arms around his little girl, and said s 9.to her. Later, David told me that he kept that box by his bed for years. When he was discouraged(情绪低落), he would take out an imaginary (想像的) kiss from the box and r 10. the love of the child.
Hi Brad, It’s good to hear from you again. I find that I’m not good at writing compositions. It’s hard for me to prepare the form of a composition and organize sentences. ①Could you tell me how to deal with this problem? I would really appreciate if you offer me some good methods. Best wishes, Cindy |
Hi Cindy, A composition is really a story and any story is told to an audience. There is a form for this and it is in three parts. First, tell them(the audience) what you are going to tell them. Then tell them, and finally tell them what you told them. Parts one and three are short and most of the information is in part two. It works like this. Let’s say you are asked to write a 200-word composition about your visit to the Great Wall. You would begin with an opening sentence or two saying something like “The Great Wall of China is a national ②landmark that is famous around the world. I visited it last summer and I want to tell you about it.” That uses about 25 words to tell them what you are going to tell them. The second part would be about 150 words and would contain information about the Great Wall such as how long it is, when it was built, who built it and why, the fact that it is one of the seven wonders of the world and you would talk about how you felt and what you thought when you visited this national treasure. This is telling them. Finally, you would use about another 25 words to say something like “That was my first visit to the Great Wall and it was a very emotional experience to actually touch something so old and famous. ③每个中国人至少参观长城一次.I plan to go back whenever I can.” Here, you are telling them what you told them in the story and wrapping it all up into a neat package. This formula(惯例)works for both compositions and speeches and I think you will find it helps to organize your thoughts. I hope it’s helpful. Best wishes, Brad Franklin |

Almost every Chinese person can recite the two lines of the famous poem, “Every grain on the plate comes from hard work(谁知盘中餐，粒粒皆辛苦).” But sadly, many of us don’t actually get the real meaning of these lines: Don’t waste food.
A CCTV program, News One Plus One, reported that the food Chinese people throw away every year is enough to feed 200million people for a year.
Do we have too much food? Of course not. According to the UN World Food Program, there were 925 million hungry people around the world in 2010, especially in developing countries. Six million children die of hunger every year.
Chinese people are well known for being hospitable(好客的) and generous. Many even feel that they lose face if their guests have eaten all the food on the table.
Luckily, a number of people have realized the importance of saving food. Last November, Li Hong, a waitress in a restaurant in Nanjing, got fired because she took some leftover food home for her son. Many people stood by her side and criticized(批评) the waste of food.
What should we do in our daily lives to waste less food? Here are some tips:
1. Do not order too much in a restaurant. Only order as much as you want to eat. If you cannot eat all the food you ordered, take the rest of it home.
2. Don’t be too picky(挑剔的) about food. Some food may not taste great, but your body needs it.
3. Keep an eye on what food you have at home. Don’t buy too much, especially for vegetables and fruit.
1.How many people were hungry in the world in 2010 according to the UN World Food Program?
A. 200 million. B. Six million.
C. 925 million. D. 625 million.
2. What does the writer want to show us through Li Hong’s story?
A. Many Chinese restaurants waste a large amount of food.
B. Many Chinese people are kind-hearted and ready to help the weak.
C. Chinese people feel that they lose face if their guests eat all the food.
D. Many Chinese people don’t agree with the behavior of wasting food.

One afternoon, many years ago, I went to pick up my mother from work. I got there a little early so I the car by the roadside and waited for her.
As I looked the car window, there was a small park where I saw a little boy, around two years old, freely on the grass as his mother watched from a short .

The boy would then fall to the grass, , and without hesitation or without looking back at his mother, run as fast as he could again, still with a on his face.
Kids, when they fall down, don't view their falling down as failure, but , they treat it as a learning experience. They try and try again until they . While I was touched by the boy's persistence, I was touched by the manner in which he ran. With each attempt, he looked so and so natural — no signs of fear, nervousness, or of being discouraged. His only was to run freely and to do it as effectively as he could. He was just being a — just being himself—being completely in the moment. He was not looking for or was not worrying about whether was watching. He didn't seem to be bothered by the fact that maybe someone would see him and that it would be if he did fall. No, all that to him was to accomplish the task, to feel the experience of running fully and freely. I learned a lot from that and experience, and have successfully brought that lesson with me in my many pursuits（追求) in life.
