The story goes back a few weeks. Our city 3 a new recycling program—families were supposed to separate food rubbish from the other kitchen waste. 

My4 loves fruit. My father especially loves watermelons. He5 a lot of them in the summer. The skin (果皮) always ends up in the rubbish. That's almost half the weight of a watermelon!

After a lot of thinking, my mom found a 6 way to use all the melon skins. She brought out the blender (搅拌器) and cut the melon skins into small pieces. 7 she blended them, she got a whole cup of green watermelon juice. Then, she mixed the juice with flour (面粉). From there, she 8 made her delicious GREEN cake.

Mr. Dawson is an old man with a bad temper (脾气). He had several apple trees in his yard, full of apples. However, kids were1to go into the yard. They would rather stay far away from it.

One day, 12-year-old Janet and 2 friend Amy had to walk past Mr. Dawson's yard. As soon as Janet saw him there, she suggested they cross the street and walk on 3side. But Amy said they didn't need to.

When Mr. Dawson saw Amy, he smiled and said, "Hello, Amy! I see you have a new friend 4you today." Amy smiled back. Mr. Dawson was kind and gave them each a fresh 5 from his yard.

Later, Janet asked Amy, "Everyone says Mr. Dawson is the 6 person in town. Why was he so nice to us?" Amy 7 that she was also afraid of him when she first walked past his yard. 8 she told herself the old man was not as cold as he seemed and tried smiling at him. To her9, the man smiled back. From then on, they began to talk more every time they met.

Janet then realized smiles do 10.

When I was young, I was very proud. I liked to show off (炫耀)in front of others to earn their praise. But after one 1 experience, I came to understand that it's important to be modest (谦虚).

One day, my friend and I were riding our bikes in a park. My mother knew I had just learned how to ride for a short time, 2 she asked me to wear some safety equipment (装备). "No, I won't wear3 !" 1 said, pointing at my friend's elbows and knees, "She doesn't wear it 4 !" "It's dangerous," my friend said, "You need more practice." "I might have learned later than you, but I can ride even5 ! "I said loudly. She narrowed her eyes and said, "Let's wait and see!"

    I saw a path leading into some woods. "I'll race you!" I shouted. Then we rode towards the woods. 6 , the path wasn't as smooth as I thought. I kept bumping (颠簸)up and down, and then suddenly. bam! I fell 7 my bike. I8 my elbows and knees bleeding. "Ha﹣ha!" My friend made a face and helped me up. "Be more careful next time," she said. Tears ran down my9. "Sorry," I said.
