Everyone must have experiences of setting off fireworks and firecrackers（爆竹）during the Spring Festival, but this year, stricter  (1)   on fireworks and firecrackers have been made by many cities and provinces.

Different cities have taken   (3)   measures to prevent that. For example, Beijing has told citizens that if there is someone who   (4)   the rules again, setting off fireworks and firecrackers will be completely banned. Shanghai even asks people to write down their   (5)   names and addresses on their ID cards when they buy fireworks and firecrackers.

The more fireworks and firecrackers, the  (6)   serious the air pollution will be. Although many people are quite sure of it, tradition is still popular in some areas. People believe that fireworks and firecrackers are useful for  (7)  away evil spirits（恶魔）. And people  (8)  live and work in cities follow the tradition when they go back to their rural homes for the Spring Festival. In big cities, however, citizens are ready to give up the pleasure of setting off fireworks and firecrackers to   (9)   some fresh air.

All in all, people should think twice before they  (10)   a choice between practicing customs and enjoying a healthy life.

One early morning, an old gardener found lots of his flowers missing. He was  (1)  angry that he shouted, “Who did this?” In order to protect his flowers, he locked(锁) the garden in the evening.

The next morning, he found some of his flowers missing again. He decided to find out   (2)  happened.  (3)  the night came, he saw a tortoise(乌龟) moving slowly into the garden. The tortoise opened its mouth and ate all the flowers. The old gardener shouted, “I catch you this time!” The tortoise quickly said, “I'm sorry. If you really want to punish（惩罚）me,  please do not throw me into the water. It is   (4)  to die in that way.”

The old gardener said nothing and he quickly threw the tortoise into a lake next to his garden. After a while, The tortoise swam away  (5)  . The old gardener then realized that the tortoise was not afraid of water．

I became lame(瘸的) when I was three years old. I can’t stand without the sticks (拐杖). Only in my wheelchair(轮椅) can I “  (1)  _”.

I still remember the first day at school. When I came to the door, everyone in the classroom watched me in   (2)  . My face turned red. I couldn’t help  (3)  back. Then the kindness and sympathy(同情) in their eyes stopped me doing so. I went shyly to an empty   (4)  

Because I was lame, I didn’t want to walk in front of my classmates. I was afraid that they might   (5)   me. In those days, I was very sad to see others walking   (6)  _.

One day, a few students came to me and pushed me in my wheelchair around our school. I was really  (7)   to see everything with my own eyes. After that we often read, played and talked together. My friends are   (8)   ready to help me. It made me  (9)  I couldn’t walk.

Once they asked me, “What is the most beautiful thing in our school?” Without hesitation(犹豫) I said, “It is the   (10)  ”

Boys and girls,

Attention, please! Do you know  (1)  to keep safe in our daily（日常的）life? Today I’d like   (2)  you some ways to keep safe.

(1)Always play in a  (3)  place. A park is a safe place   (4)   there are no cars or buses in it.

(2)   (5)  the traffic rules, please! Before crossing a road,   (6)  and look both ways ——look left, look right and look left   (7)  .

(3)Never put your head or hands out of a car, a bus   (8)   a train. Many people get hurt or lose their   (9)  by doing so.

What do you think of stress? Is it a good thing or a bad thing? Most of the students think stress can do harm   (1)   them in some ways. There’s a story about a teenager in a middle school. He even   (2)   his study because of the stress from school and family. We also usually   (3)   that someone turns to psychological doctors(心里医生) because of heavy working stress. There is no doubt that some people think stress is a dangerous wolf.

       On the other hand, other people argue that stress is not a bad thing. They  (4)   stress can produce momentum(动力）in the end. For them, right attitude and action can reduce stress and make it   (5)   . When I was a child, my mom always pushed me to study hard. She wished I could go to an ideal   (6)   for further education. I experienced stress for the first time. Born in a poor family, I deeply knew   (7)   was not easy for us, and everything my mom did to me was just to hope I could live a better life in the future.   (8)   the saying goes, “no pains, no gains.” So I did what my mom expected because I didn’t want to let her down. At last, I did measure up (达到标准）to my mom’s expectation and go to college   (9)  . Thanks to my mom’s push! Thanks to the stress! In this way, I don’t think stress is a bad thing.

       Over all, stress is not a bad thing in   (10)  . The key is how we deal with it.

Look at the lost and found case.   (1)   that? It’s   (2)   Id card . I think(想) it’s my friend  (3)   . And I lost a   (4)  of   (5)  . I write a notice. If (如果)   (6)   find the keys, please   (7)  me   (8)  555-6741.   (9)  name is Maggie White.   (10)  you for your help!
