Dear Brad,

    In about 3 months, I will take a very important test. If I  (pass) the test with good grades, I can get to the 10^th grade and choose a good school  (study) in. Now I am trying my best to make my dream  (come) true. At the same time, I'm the monitor in my class, which means I should do lots of things for my class. I am so busy with my school work and duties as a monitor that I don't have enough time  (keep) a balance between them. Gradually I become lazy. The other day, my head teacher  (tell) me that she was disappointed in my poor performance as the class monitor. Her words really discouraged me.

    What should I do now, to give up or not to give up as the class monitor? I must (do) my best in school because how well I do will influence where I go after this school year is over and it can affect the rest of my life.  (be) a class monitor is also a valuable learning experience because my teacher trusts me  (be) a good leader. I don't want  (go) to my parents for suggestions, for they will get worried about me. Can you tell me how  (choose)?

                                                                                                                                                                                  Yours,

                                                                                                                                                                                   Gates

    Years ago, while I lived in England, part of my college task(任务) was to help the children with special needs. I was chosen to 1 in a school with disabled children. The teacher asked me to 2 Nancy, a ten- year-old girl. One of 3 hands could not move.  At her school the teachers would think it was an achievement 4 she was able to put on her own coat. But I saw more in her. She had always wanted to put a string(线) 5 the hole of a key.

    For the 5 years Nancy was in the school, the teachers always 6 to help her, but always ended up doing all the work for her. I knew Nancy could do 7, so I encouraged her to do something herself. At first Nancy often failed and got very 8. Sometimes l wanted to give up too. 9, after a week Nancy was able to do 10 she had wanted to alone for so many years. Her teachers cried 11 when they saw the thing she was able to do with just some encouragement.

    Disabled people should 12 be told they can't do this or that. With just some encouragement they can do it. The look 13 that girl's face when she was able to do it herself meant  14 to me. I hope everyone will encourage people to do all they want by themselves 15 telling them they can't do it.

      The owner of a missing cat is asking for help. “My baby has been missing for over a month now, and I want him back so badly,” said Mrs. Brown, a 56-year-old woman. Mrs. Brown lives by herself in a trailer park near Clovis. She said that Clyde, her 7-year-old cat, didn't come home for dinner more than a month ago. The next morning he didn't appear for breakfast either. After Clyde missed an extra-special lunch, she called the police.
        When the policeman asked her to describe Clyde, she told him that Clyde had beautiful green eyes, had all his teeth but was missing half of his left ear, and was seven years old and completely white. She then told the officer that Clyde was about a foot high.
A bell went off. “Is Clyde your child or your pet?” the officer suspiciously asked. “Well, he's my cat, of course,” Mrs. Brown replied. “Lady, you're supposed to report missing PERSONS, not missing CATS,” said thesppeadeotonedpoliceman. “Well, who can I report this to?” she asked. “You can't. You have to ask around your neighborhood or put up flyers,” replied the officer.
         Mrs. Brown figured that a billboard would work a lot better than an 8”x11” piece of paper on a telephone pole. There was an empty billboard at the end of her street just off the interstate（州际公路） highway. The billboard had a phone number on it. She called that number, and they told her they could blow up a picture of Clyde (from Mrs. Brown's family album) and put it on the billboard for all to see.“But how can people see it when they whiz（快速移动） by on the interstate?” she asked. “Oh, don't worry, ma'am, they only whiz by between 2 a.m. and 5:30 a.m. The rest of the day, the interstate is so full of commuters that no one moves.” They told her it would cost only $3,000 a month. So she took most of the money out of her savings account and rented the billboard for a month.
      The month has passed, but Clyde has not appeared. Because she has almost no money in savings, Mrs. Brown called the local newspaper to see if anyone could help her rent the billboard for just one more month. She is waiting but, so far, no one has stepped forward.
