    In this year's college entrance examination, the3adult from a low-income family scored 669 points and applied as a4in the School of Journalism and Communication.

    Cui's home is in a small village. He is the eldest son, with a younger brother in high school5a sister in the fourth grade. To help his family earn more money, he spent his vacations with his brother. And he6at 3 o'clock in the morning to work in the greenhouses.

    7a Sunday, Cui's family was doing building work at the site of a new home when they were told to take the letter from a university. Cui and his family were excited as they8received the long-expected acceptance letter. When his mother9the acceptance letter to his father, who cannot read, a big smile appeared on his father's face.

    In an interview, Cui Qingtao said he worked about 11 to 12 hours a day at the building site in order to help his parents. When asked about his plan for the future, he said, "Now I'm going to leave my home village for college, but I'll 10 and someday change the poor conditions of the village." His words got many praises on the Internet.

    My grandfather Jack is 96 years old, and he has had an interesting life. He has traveled a lot in his life in the Far East He visited the Taj Mahal in India and the Pyramids in Egypt. He hunted (狩猎）lions in Africa, and rode a camel in the Sahara Desert. He says the most beautiful place he has travelled to is Kathmandu in Nepal.

    Jack has married twice. His first wife died when she was 32. He met his second wife Maria while he was cycling round France. They have been married for 50 years, and they have lived happily in a small village since they got married.

    Jack says that he has never been ill in his life. The secret of good health, according to my grandfather, is exercise. He goes swimming every morning. He has done this since he was a boy. He also has a glass of wine every night Perhaps that is his secret!

    Working as a vet(兽医), I met a family who taught me an unforgettable lesson. They came to my clinic with their dying dog, Coco. I examined Coco and found he was old and had a serious illness. I told the family we couldn't do anything for Coco, and euthanasia(安乐死)would be best for the dog.

    On that day, their little boy Eric seemed so calm, petting the old dog for the last time, that I wondered if Eric understood what was going on.

The little boy seemed to accept Coco's death without any difficulty. We sat together for a while after Coco's death, explaining that animal lives are shorter than human lives.

    Eric, who had been listening quietly, piped up:\"I know why. \"

    He said, "People need a lifetime to learn how to live a good life-like loving everybody and being nice, right? The six-year-old boy continued, "Well, animals already know how to do that, so they don't have to stay as long."

    I'd never heard a more soft-hearted explanation as to why animal lives are so short. It has changed the way I live. I see every day as the day that my life could be easily taken away, so I try to live my life to the fullest.

    Jackie is writing a summary(总结）and feedback（反馈）about School Day to his teacher.

    Summary:

    School Day was held successfully on May 6th.Twenty-four student helpers from Grade 8 were divided into four groups of six.Each group had a task to raise money for the disabled.

    All of groups performed well on School Day and received praise from the visitors. In short, our School Day went well and we got no poor opinions from the visitors.

    Feedback:

    Opinions from 100 students have been collected. Most students thought the activities were good. However, some students thought the prices of the school postcards were a little too high.

Satisfaction Feedback

    Follow-up:

    Have a meeting with the headmaster about prizes for excellent student helpers.

    What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange, or red? If you do, you must be an active person who enjoys life. Do you like blue? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and would rather follow than lead. 

    Colors do influence our moods(情绪). A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one, and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing(令人压抑的). There was a black bridge over the Thames River, near London. The number of people who killed themselves on that bridge used to be larger than on any other bridge in the area-until it was repainted green.

    Light and bright colors make people not only happier but also more active. In the factory, the workers will work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black.

    Australia is the greatest island in the world.  Australia is a little smaller than China.

    Australia is big, but there are fewer people there. The population of Australia is smaller than that of Shanghai, a city of China.

    Australia is in the south of the earth. So when it is hot summer in our country, Australia will be cold winter. The seasons in Australia and in China are just opposite. Summer in Australia is from December to February, and winter is from July to August. When it's spring in China, it will be autumn in Australia.

    Australia is famous for sheep and kangaroos(袋鼠）. They are both popular in Australia. 

    You can see kangaroos not only in zoos but also outside the cities and towns. There are ten sheep for everyone in the country. So people call Australia "The country on the backs of sheep ". After a short drive from any town, you will find yourself in the middle of white sheep. Sheep, sheep, sheep, sheep are everywhere.

    Have you seen a kangaroo? It has a "bag" on its body. The mother kangaroo keeps its baby kangaroos in the "bag". It's very strange, isn't it?

    Anna was a 9-year-old girl from a small village. It was the (one)day of her school in town. W seeing her simple clothing and knowing her identity(身份), other students laughed at Ann. Then the teacher told everyone to write d the 8 wonders of the world.  Everyone except Anna handed in (they) answer papers. The teacher came to her, "Don't worry. Just write. you have known. "Anna replied "There are so many (thing) Which 8 wonders can I pick to write?"

    Most students answered (correct)-the Great Green Wall of China, the Great Pyramid of Giza, the Leaning Tower of Paris… Finally the teacher (start) reading Anna's answer, "The 8 wonders: To be able to see. To be able to Hear, To Feel, Laugh, Think, Be Kind, Love and Learn! "The whole class kept (silence).

    The girl from a small village reminded them the precious(宝贵)gift in their life, which were true wonders.
