I will never forget the two impressive things that happened last winter. One of my classmates and I were 36 our project work late at night on my university's campus far from home. Since there was 37 in the forecast, I had worn a winter 38 to school that day with a raincoat in my bag.
Throughout our work on the project, I could 39 that my friend was tired from a very long day working. As we stepped outside to begin the 40 walk home, I 41 she was shivering(颤抖). The temperature had dropped to the low thirties (Fahrenheit) and she 42 had a swea
ter on. I 43 offered her my warm jacket. She accepted it and asked me what I 44 wear then. I told her I had another one and pretended that my 45 was a jacket. She said later that she 46 the next morning and the first thing on her mind was feeling moved about my 47 of the jacket.
Coincidentally(碰巧), the next day I went to an open-air play and I was freezing 48 I didn’t expect it to be so 49 . A person who I hardly 50 insisted that I wear his jacket. I was 51 touched by this warm gesture. He was so matter-of-fact(讲究实际的) about me 52 his coat, too: he simply took it off and handed it to me telling me that I should 53 it. I used to think that this vast universe was a cold 54 . It turns out that even when the temperature drops low, the people never 55 to warm each other's hearts.

Time is the easiest thing in the world to waste—the most difficult to control. When
you look ahead, it may appear you have 36 you need. Yet it has a way of slipping 37 your fingers like quicksand. You may suddenly find that there is no way to stretch the little time you have 38 to cover all your obligations. For example,

You have plenty of time for classes, study, work, and play if you use your time 45 . It is not how much time you 46 for study that counts but how much you learn when you do study.
Too much wasted time is 47 medicine. The more time you waste, the easier it is to continue wasting time. Soon, doing nothing becomes a habit you can't 48 . You will be 49 to wasting time.

25 the subject of your dream usually comes from something that has an effect on you 26 you are sleeping (feeling of cold, a noise, a discomfort, etc.) and it may also use your past experiences and the wishes and interests you have now. This is why very young 27 are likely to dream of fairies, older children of school examinations, 28 people of food, homesick soldiers of their families and prisoners of freedom.
To show you how that is 29 while you are asleep and how your wishes or needs can all be joined together in a dream, 30 is the story of an experiment.

“Well,” I agreed, “we should all keep in touch with old friends more than we do. But things 40 and we just don't seem to find the time.”
