He spent a bad day in bed thinking that he missed a lot of fun on such a happy day.The next day the doctor told him that he might be well enough to leave hospital in time for the New Year.

American teenagers have far too much time to waste(浪费). Because they have short school days and their parents are busy at work day and night, US teenagers find happiness in doing nothing. “What do you do all day in that park?” A mother will ask her son or daughter, with some reason. “I dont know, just hang out,” her child might answer.Of course, some kids keep busy with after-school sports, test-prep (测验准备) classes and clubs. I did some of these activities, too, but still found time to hang out in the park. For hours, my friends and I would sit on the stairs talking, playing games, or just watching the cars drive by doing nothing. Was it all a waste of time? Were we up to “no-good”? Maybe. When I think about it now, I cant believe I had so much free time as a teenager! Now, I should spend any free moment at the gym(健身房), writing a story or learning a new language.

I stayed silent, but Vanilla didnt go away. She kept asking me questions: “Is it because of the exam? Do you want me to show you the right answers?” I looked away from her. When I looked up again, Vanilla had gone. And so had my exam paper! I didnt know what to do. I looked everywhere for me paper, but couldnt find it. In the afternoon, Vanilla came up to my desk and gave me my exam paper back. I looked at it and got a big surprise. Vanilla had written the right answer next to every one of my mistakes. My face went red. Vanilla had been trying to help me all along. How mean I had been to her when she was being so nice.

(D)In Britain, people often invite friends for a meal, a party or just coffee. People who know each other very wellclose friends, family or neighboursvisit each others house without an invitation in need. When people invite someone to their homes, they often say, “Would you like to come for dinner on Saturday?” Answers are: “Thanks. Wed love to. What time?” or “Im sorry. Wed love to, but we have tickets for the concert.” However, it is not polite to say, “No, we wouldnt!” Sometimes, the British use expressions that sound like invitations. For example, “You must come over for a drink sometime.” or “Lets go out for a meal one of these days.” These are usually just polite ways of ending a talk. They are not real invitations because they dont mention an exact time or day. They just show that the person is trying to be friendly and the answers are: “Yes, that would be nice.” or “OK, yes, thanks.” So next time you hear what sounds like an invitation, listen carefully. Is it a real invitation or is the person just being friendly?( ) 36.Its always necessary for _ to visit each others house with an invitation.

Leave the flowers, birds and eggs where you find them. You can even grow a tree or build a birdhouse in your garden.We should also protect the environment(环境). Youd better take a bus, ride bicycles or walk but not drive cars. Turn off lights, radios and televisions when you are not using them. Take your own bag to the supermarket when you go shopping. Another important thing to protect animals is to think about what you use and eat. Dont buy things which are made of animal fur or ivory(动物的长牙). Eat more vegetables and fruit but less meat. There are many groups working on saving animals. Join one of them and start helping today!
