Dear Jenny,
How’s it going? Are you busy with your study these days?
I’ve been back at school 41 nearly four weeks. I’m very glad to tell you that great 42 have taken place in our school this term. First of all, we’re asked to “clear our plates” when having our meals and say 43 to wasting. Some of us used to order more than what we could eat. That was a big waste of food. Now we need to 44 the food we order. We should also stop wasting in some other ways. For example, we should turn off the lights when we 45 the classroom. And our school has opened up some fields for us to learn how to grow vegetables. Each class is given a small garden and our class has decided to grow some tomatoes and beans( 豆类) in our 46 time. I think that’ll be very interesting. Maybe I’ll be able to 47 you some beans we’ve grown by ourselves next time! What’s more, we have only two classes in the afternoon 48 we have more time for after-school activities. I’m one of the traffic safety volunteers in our school. After school, we take turns to go to the streets near our school and ask people to 49 the traffic rules.
I think we are having a different school life now!
Please write back soon and tell 50 more about your school.
Yours,
Wang Wei

Arnold Pointer, a professional fisherman from the south of Australia, set free (释放) a big female white shark that was 1 in his large fishing nets. He thought she would have more and more babies. But now the fisherman is facing a(n) 2 problem. The white shark is so 3 to him that for nearly 2 years she hasn’t left him 4 . She even follows him everywhere. 5 this, Arnold Pointer can’t do fishing — all the fishes are scared at her, and he doesn’t know 6 to do anymore.
It is hard to drive away such an almost 17-feet-long shark for Arnold Pointer. We all know the white sharks are protected 7 the wildlife conservation. At the same time, some special feeling has been 8 between Arnold and “Cindy”, the name the fisherman has given the white shark.

“Never give up!” It is my law(法则) of my life. It has brought me 16 . I learned the law from my father’s 17 story.

I worked from 10a.m to 11p.m. I wanted to go to school to learn English, but it was impossible. I couldn’t 28 the schooling(学费).
My father 29 working hard, and reached his goal.
“Alan,” he often says to me, “If you want something, you have to work for it and never give up. Things do not come 30in life.” That is what I learned from my father.

My parents have always loved everything about India, so a year ago we went on holiday there. It’s a wonderful 15 with beautiful scenes and interesting people . However, I didn’t enjoy Indian 16 very much.
On the second day we planned to see an old palace. At the 17 they said. “If you go by train, it’ll take you only two hours to get there.” However, the hot 18 took over four hours. I was very 19 when we got there , so we had some rice and vegetables with bread in a small restaurant. We were 20 to find it was quite nice. I wasn’t full up though and I saw a man nearby eating some little meatballs.
I said to my dad, “I’ve been eating rice all week. Can I have some meatballs please?”
Well, they looked delicious so I ate the first one very 21 . I was just putting the second one in my mouth when I felt myself 22 —my mouth was on fire! I started to cough（咳嗽）and there were tears (泪水)in my eyes. I couldn’t 23 how spicy (辛辣的) it was!
I drank about ten glasses of water but the worst thing was everyone was laughing at me. You couldn’t make me eat another Indian meatball for all the 24in the world!
