1) You may not realize it, but you are doing much more than just studying when you are at school。 School is a 72 the place where you learn to get along well with people. But this is not always easy. What can you do if you just don’t like one of your classmates？
If you d 73 that you have problems getting along with your classmates or friends， the most important thing to learn is tolerance（宽容)。 Tolerance is the ability to realize and respect the differences in others。 We cannot change the w 74 that other people do， so it is important to learn to live h 75 with them。
Tolerance will make everyone get on better with each other. K 76 others constantly(不断地） makes us understand others' differences.
Something different does not exactly mean that it is bad. Tolerance t 77 us to keep an even temper(温和的脾气) and an open mind。
You need to remember an old saying， “Treat others h 78 you want to be treated。” You would like to be treated kindly by your classmates, so it is important to treat them kindly too。 If you tolerate something， it does not mean that you have to like it. No one is asking you to change who you are or what you believe in. Tolerance just means that you s 79 respect the differences in others and not to try to make them change。
It is important to practice tolerance, because it will make e 80 life easier。 Learn to accepx people for t 81 different abilities and interests. The world is very different, and practicing tolerance in your own school and city can help make things better。
2） Betty is not a traditional American beauty。 She is unfashionable, has thick red glasses， untidy hair and large metal braces（牙套） on her teeth。 But this hasn’t stopped her f  72   becoming one of American’s favorite TV characters。 So h  73   did she manage to do it？    The answer is that charm can be m  74   attractive than beauty。 Betty is the main character in a TV show “Ugly Betty”。 The show is about her life as an office worker at a fashion magazine in New York.    The TV show has just started。 Betty has many exciting experiences and romantic stories. Betty is often l   75   down on and laughed at by the people around。 But she manages to do better than others w   76   her hard work, charm and wisdom。 The show tells us about how a girl goes from an ugly young duck into a beautiful swan.    T   77   you may know the ending of the show from the beginning and the story is familiar to many of us， it has still been a big s  78    in the USA. It has attracted large n   79   of viewers and won two Golden Globes awards, one of the highest honors for a television program in the USA. “I think you can see a bit of Betty in all of us， and I mean men as w  80   ， because it’s about the underdog(弱者），” says Ashley Jensen， who plays one of the characters on the show。    The program is so popular because of the performance of the 23—year-old actress America Ferrera who plays the r  81    of Betty. She brings the character alive on the screen。

3) In a school some trouble was caused by the students， who were naughty（调皮的） and didn't follow the school rules. They often fought with each other and they didn't f  72   each other。 One day a new teacher came to this school. When he heard that， he came up w  73   a good idea. He told each of his students to b  74   a clear plastic bag and a bag of potatoes to school. For every person they didn't want to forgive in their lives, they chose a potato， wrote the person’s name on it, and put it in the plastic bag.
Some of their bags were very h   75  。 They were then told to carry this bag with them e  76 
for one week. They would put it beside their bed at night, on the seat when they s   77   in a car or on a bus， and next to their desk at school。 Days of carrying the bags a   78   with them made students get to know what a weight they were carrying in their minds. And they had to pay so much attention to it all the time t    79    they didn’t forget it or leave it in embarrassing places。 As time p   80   by, the potatoes went bad and made people feel sick.
Too often we think of tolerance（容忍） as a gift to other people， and it clearly is for ourselves! If we choose to keep our sadness and hatred（仇恨） in our hearts， we will have to carry them around all our lives. After that, the students got on w   81    with each other and didn't fight any more。 Learn to forgive， and you will be happier at the same time.

4） Steve Jobs， the founder and former CEO of Apple， passed away on October 5th, 2011 at the age of fifty-six a   72    a seven—year—long battle with cancer，when every Apple fan was waiting for the next s   73   。
What is Jobs best remembered for? Many of us would name some great products： the iPod, the iTouch， the iPhone or the iPad。 They have c   74   the way we enjoy music, television， and even books.
But Jobs brought much more to the world than these p  75   products. As a s   76   businessman, Jobs’ passion and energy encouraged the world。 He told us to “do what you love”. He said, “The o  77  
thing that keeps me going is that I love what I do.” He believed “People with passion can change the world f  78   the better.” Jobs made computers interesting and easy to u  79  . His iPhone, iPad and iTouch are popular a  80   the world。 People say Jobs sold dreams， not products。 As the US president Barack Obama said, “Jobs was brave enough to think differently, bold（大胆的） enough to b  81   he could change the world, and talented enough to do it.”

5） Did you know that you can help the environment if you buy recyclable products instead of non-recyclable ones? Look for the recycle (72）s   ▲   – three arrows that make a circle – on the package。 Recyclable products are usually made out of things that already have been (73）u   ▲  . It usually takes less energy to make recycled products than to make new ones. The more energy we save， the (74)b   ▲  。
Imagine that it's a hot summer day. You put an ice cream on the sidewalk, and it melts. （75）W   ▲   does this happen？ Well, you probably know that the sun causes the ice cream to melt。 But you may not know that the sun produces solar energy。 Solar energy is （76)a   ▲   way of saying "energy that comes from the sun." Solar energy can be used to heat homes， buildings， water， (77)a   ▲   to make electricity. Today， more than 200,000 houses in the United States make use of the (78)s   ▲   energy.　　Cars are an important part of life for most people。 But cars also cause pollution and give out a lot of greenhouse gases into the air. (79L   ▲  , there are some cars that are better for the environment. These cars can travel longer on a smaller amount of gasoline。 They don’t (80）p    ▲   as much， either。 Using these kinds of cars can help reduce the amount of greenhouse gases in the air.
Many things, （81）l   ▲   computers， TVs， stereos， and VCRs， have special labels on them。 The label says "Energy” and has a picture of a star。 Products with the ENERGY STAR® label are made to save energy. Buying products with ENERGY STAR® labels will help protect the environment.
6) Driving your own car saves you from the trouble of catching buses and trains. But with the gas prices and parking costs up， are you sure driving your own car to work every day is still a
w  72   choice？
Of all the problems on costs， energy consumpxion (花费) is the b  73   one in having too many cars on the road. You must have noticed already how t  74   the traffic is. That leads to a great part of greenhouse effect。
With all these d  75   of using a private （私人的） car as a way of transportation, you surely can do something smart and come up with your own green vehicle ride。 What can you do to r  76
your costs on gas and at the same time， help form an eco-friendly lifestyle?
The most p  77   way to solve this problem on transportation is the ride share。 This is a smart and fun way to travel to w  78  . You can call your neighbors and friends to just one vehicle。 Here are some of the advantages of s  79   a ride with your friends：

7) Do you want to be the best student in your class? Be the envy of all of your friends in school and be the p  72    of your teachers and parents ！
First, a best student must study hard。 This is the primary task of a student. Remember， if you don’t do anything， you will be nothing。 Ask questions in class if you do not understand something。 In addition, try to enjoy all the s  73    you learn at school and work hard on them. It seems that hard—working students can have success more e   74  。
Second, good study habits are very useful。 For example， when you prepare for a test, make
s   75    that you have all of the proper materials including books， pencils， paper, calculators, etc. Underline the words that you do not understand。 And try marking some of the themes mentioned in the book. Then, come up w   76     study questions and try to answer them. You'd better stop to take a r   77   every hour to refresh your memory。
Don't f   78  to try asking your parents for help. They have personal learning experiences and can help you with your studies in many ways。 Usually, the students who ask their parents for help can do b  79    in class than those don't.
Lastly， remember to never give up。 You are already on your way in becoming the best student！ The truth is that it doesn't m  80    to fail if you pick yourself up and try even harder. A  81     
a lot of the famous people were all once failures， they never lost heart and managed to climb to the top and succeed。

10) My mother used to ask me what the most important part of the body is. Through the years I would guess at what I thought was the correct answer。
    When I was younger, I thought sound was very important to us as humans， so I said， “My ears, Mommy。” She said， “No. Many people are d  72  . But you keep thinking about it and I will ask you again soon。”
    Several years later， Mom asked me again. But this time I told her， “Mommy, sight is very important to e   73  ， so it must be our eyes.” She looked at me and told me, “You are learning fast， but the answer is not correct b  74   there are many people who are blind。"
    O  75   the years, Mother asked me a couple more times and always her answer was, “No, but you are getting s  76   every year， my child.”
    Then last year， my grandpa died。 Everybody was hurt。 Everybody was c  77   . My mom looked at me when it was our turn to say our final good—bye to Grandpa。 She asked me， “Do you know the most important body part yet, my dear？” I was shocked when she asked me this now. I always thought this was a g  78   between her and me。 She saw the confusion （困惑) on my face and told me， “This question is very important。 It shows that you have really lived your life.” I saw her eyes filled with tears。 She said， “My dear， the most important body part is your s  79   .”
I asked, “Is it because it holds up your head？” She r  80   , “No, it is because it can hold the head of a friend or a l  81   person when they cry。 Everybody needs a shoulder to cry on sometimes in life， my dear. I only hope that you have enough love and friends so that you will have a shoulder to cry on when you need it。”
Then and there I knew the most important body part is not a selfish one. It’s sympathetic （同情的） to the pain of others.
