I was fifteen months old and a happy kid until the day I fell. It was a terrible fall and my eyes were____41____(严重地) hurt. Trying to____42____(挽救) my eyes, mum found a good doctor . He said that my sight was lost but he would try to____43____(把……留下) my eyeballs with me. So when I walked with my face looking at the floor, people would not see my blind eyes. However, when the kids played games, I was always____44____(单独的). Sometimes I ____45____(隐藏) myself in my room. At that time mum encouraged me, "If you hold your head up high, it will be okay."

     In high school I was ____46____(成功的) and I was even elected____47____(班长) of our class. But Sometimes I still felt lonely. When things got really terrible, I would____48____(哭) to mum and she would look at me lovingly and said, "Hold your head up high and____49____(面对) the world. Let them see the beauty that is inside."

     Now in my home we often say "Hold your head up high". The____50____.(礼物) from my mum has passed down to my children. I think we will live with it forever.

Friends are very important in people’s lives. No one can live alone in the world without friends. I think it’s easy to make friends with other people and build a friendship b  (1)   each other. H___  (2)  ____it is not easy to get true friendship, I think.

So what is true friendship? In my opinion, true friendship includes:

First of all, true friendship must t   (3)   their friends loyally(忠诚地) and help each other. In other words, you must not take advantage of(利用) your friends, and you mustn’t cheat them. For example, some unfriendly people make friends in order to cheat m  (4)   and feelings, or get a c  (5)     secret and so on. I don’t think these are true friendship.

Second, true friends must try their best to help each other. For example, i  (6)   a friend is indeed in need of money to escape from some t  (7)   , true friends might lend it and help him or her.

Third, friends must share their happiness and s  (8)   . One of the greatest men o     (9)  said,“If you tell your happiness to your friend, you will get double happiness. If you tell your sadness to your friend, you will get h  (10)   .”

He comes from a small village far from any big town. He is the son of a farmer. He is Wu Yulu, a common     61     (invent) from a village.

    Even when he was a child, he took a great interest     62     robots. He made his first mini-electrical machine at the age of 8. He worked on robots all day. Local villagers thought Wu Yulu was crazy.       63      , he never gave up his dream. He  spent most of his time on robots with different     64      (skill) and didn't care about farming.

So far, he      65     (create) more than thirty robots. Some clean, some wash the dishes, and      66     pour water, light cigarettes or serve food.

      “I will never stop     67     (make) robots and I'm glad that I have kept on.”said Wu Yulu. “In 2009, I    68     (invite) to an exhibition(展览) in Shijiazhuang with my robots. I am     69     (pride) that my robots were on show along with Shenzhou VII. ”

Influenced by Wu Yulu, his son Wu Wangyang loves robots, too. He is so crazy about robots    70    he always loses himself in his inventions. In the future, he and his father Wu Yulu will surely invent more useful robots.

You can see kangaroos everywhere in Australia．They appear on TV, in books and, in the shops．The government even plans to put them on passports．[103]Although it's the best loved animal in Australia, millions of kangaroos are killed every year．Why, people ask, do the Australians kill them? Quite simple, there are too many of them．

The number of kangaroos in Australia is believed to be 20—25 million．It is larger than the number of people living in the country．

There are several reasons for the growth in the number of kangaroos．There is plenty of water in the places where kangaroos live and many of the dingoes (澳洲野狗) that like to kill and eat kangaroos are not there anymore．

Kangaroos also produce (产生) the young all the year round．When a female (雌的) kangaroo gives birth , she then gets pregnant (怀孕) again immediately．The large number of kangaroos means some kangaroos don't get food to eat．They are so hungry that they break into farms and fight against other animals for food．

[104]To solve the problem, the Australian government allows a certain number of kangaroos to be killed each year．

Many people don't think that it's right to kill kangaroos but the government thinks that it is only to help the farmers．Australia sells 5 million kilos of kangaroo meat every year—it is used to make hamburgers for dogs．

One day a girl found two starving(快要饿死的)songbirds while she was walking in the woods. She took them home and put them in a small cage.(A)She cared them with love and the birds grew stronger. Every morning they greeted her with a wonderful song. The girl felt great love for the birds. One morning the girl left the door to the cage open. The larger of the two birds flew from the age. The girl was so frightened that he would flyaway. As the flew close, she caught him tightly in her hands. Her heart felt glad at her success in catching him. When she(B)________her hands she stared at the dead bird. Her deep love had killed(C)him.

    She could feel the bird's great need for freedom. He needed to fly in the clear, blue________(D).she let the other bird fly out of the cage. He circled once, twice. three times.

    Her heart was no longer concerned with her loss. She wanted the bird to be happy. Suddenly the bird flew closer and landed softly on her shoulder. It(E)唱动听的歌that she had never heard.

The fast way to lose love is to hold it tightly. the best way to keep love is to give it wings.
