They usually live far f    84    their parents because they want to find good jobs. They often w   85    to their parents or telephone them. And they often go to visit their parents on h   86    .‎ ‎    Parents usually let their children choose their o   87    jobs. Americans think it important for young people to decide on their lives by themselves.‎ ‎    Children are asked to do some work around their house. And in many families, children are paid (付钱)for d   88    some housework so that they learn how to make money for their own use.‎ Do you often help y   89    parents do housework? Do you want to live with your parents w  90    you grow up ? ‎ ‎（二）Lofton is a little village （村庄）in England. It is not f__81___ from the city of Manchester.

As I got closer I saw that her b  82     had a strange shape. That’s a hump (驼背)! Perhaps that was the r  83  why people just passed by and make no effort to help. I sat down beside her and said, “Hello!” Then she, in a low voice, said, “Hi.” I smiled and she smiled b  84   , shyly. Then we talked there u  85     it got dark. I asked the girl why she was so sad. She looked at me and said with a sad face, “Because of ‎ the hump.”‎ ‎    “But, you make me t  86    of an angel (天使), sweet and friendly,” I said. She looked at me and asked, “Really?” I said, “Yes, I think you are an angel and you come here to watch over all those people walking by.” When she h  87   this, the little girl jumped up. “I am! I’m an angel!” I was happy because she was no sad any m  88  .‎ After that, my life also changed. I learned how to s  89   both happiness and sadness with others. I believe now we give something to others in the s  90   way we get the same.‎ ‎(四)There was a big earthquake under the India Ocean Area o  81    December 26th 2004 and it c 82    a large tsunami. Tsunamis are great sea waves produced especially by an earthquake.‎ ‎    That morning my classmates and I went to the seaside and had breakfast when we h  83     a loud noise like bombs. People in the sea ran w   84   to the bank and s   85    , ‘Water is coming!’ Someone told us to run to a higher place. We ran as q  86     as we could.‎ ‎    Since we did not know what happened, we were very f  87   . We looked back and saw a t  88    picture. The water waves were so strong that cars  were made to fall upside down and the flood w 89    away everything on the seaside .‎ We were safe but the n   90   of victims was over 140,000. People call the day ‘Black Sunday’.‎ ‎（五）Man has a big brain. He can think and s  76    languages. Scientists once thought that man isn’t the same as animals b   77   man can think and learn. They know now that dogs, monkeys and birds can learn, too.‎ ‎    They are beginning to u   78    that men are different from animals because they can speak. Animals can’t speak. They make much n    79   when they are afraid, or unhappy. Apes(猿) can learn some things more quickly than man. One or two of them have learned a few words. But they cannot join words to make s  80  . They cannot think l   81   us because they have no language. Language is a wonderful thing. Man has been a   82   to build a modern world because he has language. Every child can speak his own language very w  83   when he is four or five, b   84    no animals learn to speak.‎ How do children learn it? Scientists don’t really know w   85    happens inside our body when we speak. They only know that man can speak because he has a brain.‎ ‎（六）Reading books is a good hobby for all kinds of reasons.‎ ‎ First, reading books is f  72  . You can always keep yourself interested and help you to have an enjoyable time if you like reading. This is especially u  73   when the weather is bad. It is a relaxing hobby too. You can really become lost in a book.‎ ‎ Next, you can read a book a  74  : in a car, in a waiting-room, on a plane, in bed — even in the bath. All you n  75   is a book! Reading is a convenient hobby as it is easy to stop and then start again.‎ ‎ A  76   good reason for reading books is that it is useful. If you read as a hobby you will get better and better at it. This m  77   that you will read faster and will become better at understanding what you read. As your reading improves, you will probably find your schoolwork becomes much e  78  . Many school subjects depend on（依赖于） good reading and, as you read, you learn more and more.‎ ‎ Some people say that reading is out of date. This is not t  79  . You have to be able to read to use a computer and, the better you read, the better your computer skills will be. Reading is never out of date!‎ ‎ Good readers are most likely to be good w  80  , too. They are usually good at spelling as well, and have more things to write about. Reading books is a wonderful hobby, one of the best. W  81   other hobby could be more useful, or more enjoyable?‎ ‎（七）Michel is a young girl who works for the police as a handwriting expert(专家). She has helped c 72   many criminals by using her special talents.‎ ‎ When she was fourteen, Michel was already quite i 73   in the differences in her friends’ handwriting that she would spend hours on them. After f 74   college she went to France for a special two-year class in handwriting at the School‎ of ‎Police Science.‎ ‎ Michel says that it is i 75   for people to hide their handwriting. She can discover most of w 76   she needs to know just by looking at the writing with her own eyes. She also has machines t 77    help her make out different kinds of paper and ink. This knowledge is o 78    great help to the police.‎ ‎ Michel believes that handwriting is a good sign of what kind of person the w 79   is. “I wouldn’t go out with a fellow i 80 I didn’t like his handwriting.” She ‎ says. And she adds she fell in l 81   with her future husband, a young policeman after she studied his handwriting. It is later proved to be all right, however.‎ ‎（八）Water and its importance to human life were the centre of the world’s attention last week. March 22nd was World Water Day and had the theme “Water for Life”.‎ ‎ There are more than one billion people in the world who live w    67      safe drinking water. The United Nations h    68      to cut this number in half by 2015. Solving s    69      a big problem seems like an unreal challenge（挑战）. But e    70     ，even teenagers, can do something to help. A teenage girl in the U.S.‎ has set an example to others of her age around the world.‎ ‎ Rene Haggerty, 13, was awarded the 2004 Gloria Barron Prize for her work collecting waste batteries which p___71______ water. ‎ ‎ In 2003, Haggerty went on a field trip to the Great Lakes Science Centre in Ohio. There, she saw an exhibition about how chemicals in old batteries h____72       the water of Lake Erie. Haggerty learnt that recycling the batteries was an easy way to solve the problem. “I think everybody can do it, because everyone u    73      batteries, and it can make a big difference.” With these words, she began her action in her area. She talked to the government and school. She got permission to start a recycling programmme in the school as well as the public libraries, hospitals and churches.

Each year, ten w____76_____ will receive U.S. $2000 each, to help with their education costs or their public service work. ‎ ‎（九）.Bedtime stories are one of the delights（喜悦） of early childhood.
