I live near a forest in Ohio, America. I can walk there 47 three minutes. I used to love going there to play with my dog. But one day there was 48 much litter there that I became very unhappy. I decided to clean up the forest, and I wanted to 49 happy when I went again. I made my first trip to clean the forest that afternoon. I took a big black rubbish bag with me. Ten minutes 50 I started to pick up litter, my bag was full! There were cans, bottles, broken glass and newspapers in it.
From then on, I 51 to the forest four times a year to pick up litter. I often stay there for three hours. It makes me feel 52 to do something for the environment. After each trip, I look through all the litter that I’ve collected. If 53 of it is recyclable（可回收利用的）, I’ll keep it. I can’t understand why people drop litter.

My best friend and I were in the shop that she owns. It was the middle of the afternoon. We were both very happy and making plans for the weekend. Suddenly a man entered the shop. We knew that he didn’t look like one of our usual customers, but we welcomed him _ __ anyway. Without any hesitation he pulled something out of his coat. We didn’t notice that it was a __ __ until he ordered us to go into the back with him.
After he warned us that he could fire at any time, he looked for the money everywhere, in the bank, from our wallets, and then he asked for our jewellery (珠宝) and we gave him all he wanted. Finally, he finished his “job” and left.
When I was a child, I felt safe with my parents in my home or wherever I was not alone. Then I began to understand the news and I learnt that __ __ things were happening “out there”, but I still kept thinking that those events were just other people’s __ __, not mine. From the moment the man walked out of the shop, I completely ___ ___. I always look around to see which kinds of people are possibly following me. Now I usually double-check everything: if I’ve locked myself in the car or in the house. I am always careful not to wear any jewellery. Whenever a stranger is getting too close or is trying to get information from me, I feel nervous. I know that it is wrong, and that not everyone is going to _ __ me again.
After all, I consider myself lucky, since nothing really bad happened to me or my friend, but since that day I haven’t felt safe any more. I hate that man not for having taken my jewellery and money, but for having deprived（剥夺）of my innocence.

Last Sunday the elephant keeper at London Zoo, Jim Robson, (kill) by one of the elephants he loved. This was terrible, and it could be a big problem for the future of London Zoo—and maybe for all of Britain’s city zoos.
London Zoo said that it (move) its three elephants to a wild animal park outside London. Its director-general（总经理）, Michael Dixon, said, “We are sorry that the elephants
(leave); there
(be) elephants at London Zoo since 1831.”
One British newspaper said that though many small animals were very interesting, most people wanted to see big animals—and most of all elephants.
London Zoo is not only losing its elephants. The tigers will also leave soon and most of the bears have already gone. Outside the elephant house at London Zoo, a woman (call) Mary said she wished the zoo
(keep) big animals. “This is the only way the young people can see animals without
(travel) to other countries,” she said.
Zoos are not very good places for animals, but they can help to well keep them. Children can also learn a lot about the animals when they visit zoos.
Another visitor, a man called Alan, was very angry. “If the elephants (send) back to the wild, they will die. If you take away big animals, people will stop
(visit) London Zoo. It can survive （继续生存）at the moment, but it
(not survive) in the future. "
However, Mary Rosevear, director of the Federation of Zoos, believes that city zoos can survive without keeping large animals.
Happiness is for everyone, and you don’t need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with and swimming pools or those who have nice cars a lot of money and so on. Why? Because those who have big houses may often lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads in their free time.
In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in at school, your friends will help you; when you study at your lessons, your parents are always good care of your life and your health; when you get , your friends will say congratulations to you; when you do something wrong, people around you will help you to it. And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are your happiness. If you notice those things, you can see that happiness is always you.
Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor you can also say you are very happy because you have something else that can’t be bought with money. When you meet difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy because you have more chances to yourself. So you cannot always say you are poor or you have bad luck. As the saying goes: Life is like a revolving(转动的)door. When it , it also opens. If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person.

The greatest feeling in the world comes not from receiving presents, or even getting an A on the math test you studied so hard for. Rather, it when you hand a cup of hot coffee to that older man sitting on the side of the street asking for money. You feel it when you drive an hour and a half to a to meet children with cancer. And you feel it when you sit down with your friend to comfort her her mother died. Helping others can be the greatest feeling in the world, and I this just one year ago.
My friend asked me to attend a Youth Group meeting at his church. After an hour of listening to them their opinions, I was invited to go with them to help the homeless.
Early that Saturday morning, a team of 15 teenagers began making sandwiches and counting bags of candy. For the first time in my life I realized that we, the teens of America, can make a . Since it was my first time, and I wasn’t part of the group, I felt a little out of place. But watching the others the food drove my nervousness away.
Before long, all 150 bagged lunches were gone and the group was its way home. I realized that not only is my friend an amazing person, but that all of those people are amazing. That’s what made me join the Youth Group.
I work at a coffee shop but don’t make much. It’s not the best job, but there are times when it’s worth it. For example, a few weeks ago, when the store was and I was bored, looking out of the window, I noticed an old man sitting outside. He had been there before. As a matter of fact, he came in to buy anything because he didn’t have any money. I took up a cup of coffee, walked outside, and handed it to him. The smile on his face made my day, and as I walked back into the store, I put my own money into the drawer. Then I knew how the members of the Youth Group feel every time they help someone. Knowing that you can help
is – the greatest feeling in the world.

Sudha Chandran, a well-known dancer from India, had to have her right leg cut after a car accident. She was also on her career path.
Though the accident brought her bright career to a , she didn’t give up. In the months that followed, Sudha met a doctor who developed a man-made rubber filled with sponge (海绵). So she wanted to go back to dance after she had been fitted with her new leg. Sudha knew that she believed in herself and could realize her dream, so she began her courageous journey back to the world of dancing --- to walk, turn, jump, balance, bend, stretch, twist, twirl... 
After every recital (music, dance given by one person) she would ask her dad about her performance. “You have a long way to go” was the answer she used to get in return. In January 1984, Sudha made a historic by giving a public recital in Bombay. She performed in such a great success that it moved everyone to tears and this pushed her to the highest position again. That evening when she asked her dad the question, he didn’t say anything. He just touched her feet as praise.
Sudha’s comeback was so moving that a film producer to make the story into a hit film.
When someone asked Sudha how she had managed to dance again, she said quite simply, “You don’t need feet to dance. is impossible in this world. If you have the will to win, you can achieve anything.” (266)
