When I came to my new school three years ago, I was surprised at how lonely I felt. Then one of my classmates invited me to her house for a dinner 36 . I was a little anxious, but finally I gladly 37.
Not really knowing how 38 the bus ride should be, I 39 when I saw the landmarks 40 on my friend’s hand-drawn map. But when I got close enough to the 41 , I found none of the streets were shown on the map. I was 42 on a busy road with cars driving past without a person in sight. I had no43 when the next bus would come, 44 when a bus did come by, I 45 got on. I told the bus driver where I wanted to go and he said that I had caught the 46 bus, but he let me stay on. After he had finished his scheduled bus route, he 47 to help me out. I gratefully showed him my little hand-drawn map but 48 did not help much.
He finally 49 me off at a main road to catch a different bus and was 50 that he could not help me more. After a few minutes of walking, I noticed a bus pull up beside me. It was the 51 bus driver. He explained that he didn’t want to leave me there 52 . He sent out a call and someone radioed back, saying that the bus I needed to catch was about ten minutes away. At last I made it to the dinner party 53 I was over an hour late.
I am forever thankful for the 54 that this bus driver had for me. His act of kindness left a 55 on my heart.

[详细]举一反三
Streit was an experienced safecracker who never used force —either against people or safes (保险箱). He was a real artist of his trade and it took him only 19 minutes to open the most difficult safe he had ever encountered. In about 10 years, helped by his brother Stefan and two friends, he took about $330,000 —from the safes of 28 banks in Austria. On his last job, early in 1999, he left the safe door open and $80,000 behind. With the money ws a note, "We don’t need all that much."
A witness (目击者) recognized his car and Streit was caught by the police. Then he was sent to Austria’s Stein Prison to serve a six-year sentence. He boasted (吹嘘) at his trial that he would continue breaking the law, "I am a thief and I shall use every opportunity." Despite the warn-ing, prison officials moved Streit to the prison’s blacksmith (铁匠) shop. One day during the week before Christmas, Streit disappeared. Searchers found all his doors were well locked. Streit had managed to make a set of keys and let himself out.
Not to freedom, though. After crossing into Bavaria, Streit attracted the suspicion (怀疑) of German customs police on purpose and got himself arrested. "I want to be in a German prison,"he explained to the surprised police. "As German courts give much milder (温和的) sentences for crimes like mine and will reduce the time I would otherwise have served in Stein Prison."
In prison, Streit persuaded his keepers to let him make a Christmas Eve telephone call to his former keeper, Karl Schreiner of Stein Prison. "I’m sorry if I caused trouble. I didn’t want to embarrass anybody by escaping. Conditions weren’t that bad. In fact the food was better than it is here."

When I was young, I wanted to be a teacher if I grew up，simply because I wanted to write on the chalkboard！My teachers seemed to be the 36 printers，curving their letters just so，and I wanted to do it 37 ！Now，after "higher education"，and three 38 career paths，I have come back to want to be a 39 ，but my reasons have changed. I was 40 in my years of high school，to have teachers that really 41 me as an individual, and I want to 42 this back.
A teacher"s gentleness needs to be shown when 43 or encouraging the students. It is important to make the corrections in order for the students to learn. 44 ，this needs to be done in a 45 that will help to 46 the student to make the changes necessary,___47___ discouraging them from learning.Being patient is also extremely important，because the class needs to know what to 48 from the teacher.This will also help to build a better agreement with the students，and help both the teacher and students to learn more about each other.
If a teacher exhibits a true love of 49 and helping students learn，many of the qualities ___50___ above will just fall into place. The teacher that had the most 51 on me had the best fame in the school. She was strict，and she did demand a lot, but she was able to show us it was ___52___she cared for us. She knew each of us was worth it，and she knew we each could do it. She __53___ knowledge，gently, firmly, patiently，respectfully, and most effectively. She gently encouraged us to make 54 when we needed to，and 55 us when we did. She was a true teacher, not just someone who taught，and this is the kind of teacher I hope to be.

Are you a top student in your school, or at least a top one in your class? If not, you may learn something from my story.
Growing up in a poor family with uneducated parents, I was not good at my study. But a teacher changed my life. Without her, I couldn’t have 36 so much in my later career. I can still remember the very important day that has 37 my whole life.
I did so 38 in math that you may not imagine that I even couldn’t count from “ONE” to “TEN”, when I was in Grade Three.
Then the 39_ day came. My father was asked to come to school to 40_ with my teacher, Ms King. You can’t imagine how angry and 41_ my father was when he heard about my “excellent achievement”. He 42 at me：“since you can’t even count from ‘ONE ’to ‘TEN’, what are you able to be when you 43_ up? Now, tell me！”I was scared and 44_ and didn’t know what to say and tears came immediately into my eyes.
Then the most unforgettable time in my life came. “Maybe he can be a boxing refereeone day. That 45 only needs him to count from ‘ONE’ to ‘NINE’, which may
46 him well.” Ms King looked into my eyes and firmly said.
Now, I am in my forties, and can you believe it that thanks to Ms King, I am really a well-known boxing 47 of WBO(World Boxing Organization),and that I do need to count only from “ONE” to “NINE”? So are still worried about your poor grades at school? Remember there will always be a place waiting for you!

One day I took a bus with my girlfriend. It was so _6_ that we stood for several stops until a vacant seat was _7_ for her.

But I was at a loss to search in my memory for someone called Nancy among my neighbors. I was worrying how to explain this to my girlfriend _14_ the pretty girl again turned to me，“Will you give me your cellphone number so that we can keep contact(联系) later？” I had to submit to her _15_.
Then the girl got off the bus at the next stop. A minute later I got a short _16_ on my phone from a stranger. My girlfriend _17_ my phone and read the note. It was from the girl，who said，“Just now，two thieves tried to pick your pocket. I had to act as an acquaintance to draw your attention. I should have left at the _18_ stop but gave up as I noticed these two thieves also _19_ to leave at the same stop. Because of the _20_ I delayed my departure. Now you’ll understand all I have done to you. Wish you luck.”
