The next day, we put our idea into reality. Towards lunch time, we put up a wall newspaper outside the school cafeteria, (call) on students not to waste food.

Freeflyers: Modem Skydivers
Have you experienced the thrilling sport—freeflying? Imagine falling towards the planet Earth at awesome speed of 300 kilometers per hour. You start your fall from over four kilometers above the Earth. And you have less than one minute before you pull your parachute (降落伞）cord. You are falling
fast that just turning your head can send you off
a different direction. This is the wild side of a sport that has not found its limit—freeflying.
Freeflying (base) on the more traditional skydiving,
of which are eye-catching. However, it is more terrifying to watch freeflyers create formations and movements. Freeflyers,
the name suggests, enjoy the more spontaneous(即兴的）thrill of doing their own things.
The wildest trip for a freeflyers is falling ‘head down’. Falling ‘head first’ requires a great deal of control, which means(travel) not only fast but also steadily. Even the
(slight) movement has a great effect on your direction.
They wear the amusing jumpsuits, strange helmets and smaller parachutes. (actual), their parachutes are about one quarter the size of the traditional skydiver’s parachutes. It is only in the last few years
freeflying has gained any real public acceptance.

B: Sure, go ahead. What is ____?
A: I ___ (real) want to change my neighbor.
B: Oh, but why? __ you had a quarrel?

B: Well, as I know, since you became neighbors, you ___ (be) friendly to each other.
A: Yes. But … but you don’t know that he’s a chatter-box. He talks in and out of class all the time, ___

B: I’m sorry I ___ (know) that. I think I should have a word __

The air we breathe is freely available, withoutwe could not survive more than a few minutes. For the most part, air is available to everyone, and everyone needs it. Some people use the air to sustain them while
(sit) around and feel sorry for themselves.
breathe in the air and use the energy it provides to make
magnificent life.
Opportunity is in the same way; it is everywhere. It is so freely available that we take it granted. Yet opportunity alone is not enough to create success; it must
(seize) and acted upon in order to have value. So many people are so
(anxiety) to “get in” on a “ground floor opportunity”, as if the opportunity will do all the work. That’s
(possible).
Just as you need air to breathe, you need opportunity to succeed., it takes more than just breathing in the fresh air of opportunity. You must make use of it. That’s not up to the opportunity; that’s up to you. It doesn’t matter what “floor” the opportunity is on, but
matters is what you do with it.
Not all ads play tricks us, though. PSAs use some of
same methods as commercial ads, like attractive pictures and clever language. They aim to teach us and help us
better lives. Our government has been using PSAs to educate people
many years. One of these is, “
you smoke cigarettes, you are slowing killing
. All of these ads
meant to benefit the public, and you can often learn a lot by following the advice they give. Finally, when
comes to advertisements, we must be intelligent and not be a slave to them.
