Last January I was given a chance to work in another country. At first, I lived a 1 life, but soon I
met a group of new friends and they were really nice.
Then something 2 happened. One of our friends suffered from kidney stones (肾结石), which had
to be 3 surgically as soon as possible. But it was not as 4 as that! Our friend could not 5 the
operation, which put him into deep 6 . I didn"t know how to help him because I didn"t have any money
either. 7 , I never lost hope. Instead I tried to think of other 8 and told him not to worry because
everything would be all right.
Before I left the hospital, I talked to the surgeon and asked him to do the surgery, saying I would pay
the expenses the next day 9 I had that kind of money. Well, I must have been 10 because the
surgeon agreed to do it! But how was I going to get that much money?
All I knew was that I needed to help my friend! Although it could be 11 to deal with this kind of
situation, I decided to make some efforts. I tried to borrow money but failed. I tried 12 my things but
no one wanted them. Then I had the idea of talking to my 13 . I asked him if I could have my next two
months" salary in advance-without even thinking on how I would 14 for two months with no money.
He was surprised and asked me the reason. I told him that I had a friend who was really in need. 15
I convinced him too and then he gave my two months" salary without any 16 !
Upon getting the money, I ran to the hospital and paid all the bills. My friend didn"t know how to
thank me. I just said, "Come on! Give me a 17 !"
Friendship may not only be found at the happy moment but sometimes you can find it on the 18
time in your life! I"ve done a good thing by being a (an) 19 friend and I think it is well worth the 20 . |

The story happened in Japan _1 a house was redecorated and the wall inside a room was removed.
The inside of the wall was hollow. When the owner of the house removed the wall, he saw a gecko (壁
虎) inside the wall. Its tail was pinned by a nail _2 (come) through the wall from outside.
The owner was very curious why the gecko was still alive. Then the nail caught his eye. Goodness! It
is the nail that was driven here ten years ago when the house was built! How amazing it is _3 the gecko
to have lived in the wall in complete_4 (dark) for ten years!
But on second thought, the curious house owner wondered how this gecko could live through 10
years with its tail _5 (nail) down and being unable to go anywhere? So he tried to find out how this small
creature could be fed. After a little while, there appeared another gecko with food in _6 mouth! What a
shocking scene! For ten years, this little gecko had never failed to feed the trapped one.
The story touched me so 7 (deep) that it is useless to find out _8 relationships they had between them. Parent _9 child ? Friends? Lovers? Brothers or sisters? 10 last thing we should do is to abandon your
beloved in hardship. |

When I was six years old, my mom told me that I could find anyone"s number in the phone book. I
used to look through the phone book for hours trying to find Michael Jordan"s phone number. When I
couldn"t find it, I just dialed seven numbers. When someone answered, I"d ask, "Is that Michael Jordan?" Obviously, I always had the wrong number.
A year later I started playing basketball at my local recreation center. It was very big. I never thought
in my wildest dreams that a basketball court could be inside a building. The recreation center had a
special smell in it, sort of like hot rubber. I guessed it was from the shoes hitting the floor so fast and hard. The atmosphere on the court was carefree. Our biggest excitement of the day was when we actually
made a shot. We celebrated wins over ice cream at a fast food restaurant.
I got good at it, and my confidence grew. I played it all the time until the sixth grade. As soon as
junior high school came, I stopped playing basketball and focused on school. When senior high school
started, I tried out for the school team and made it. We worked hard. Every week we did 300 push-ups
and 300 sit-ups on our own. Our coach encouraged the sit-ups to keep stomach power, because it gave
us so much control when we were playing basketball. If we didn"t want to do the sit-ups and push-ups,
we could practice dribbling (运球) and shooting more. It"s just us, the ball, the court and the net. But
don"t take my word for it. See for yourself. After all, I"m just one kid playing the game. |

A. the author"s mother gave him some wrong phone numbers

A. it is the basic preparation to play basketball

One night, as Diaz stepped off the train and onto a nearly empty platform, a teenage boy approached
and pulled out a knife.
"He wanted my money, so I just gave him my wallet and told him, "Here you go "" Diaz says.
As the teen began to walk away, Diaz told him, "Hey, wait a minute. You forgot something. If you"re
going to be robbing people for the rest of the night, you might as well take my coat to keep you warm."
The robber looked at him puzzled, saying, "Why are you doing this?"
Diaz replied, "If you"re willing to risk your freedom for a few dollars, then you must really need the
money. I mean, all I wanted to do was get dinner and if you really want to join me….."
Diaz says he and the teen went into a diner and sat in a booth.
"The manager comes by, the dishwashers come by, the waiters come by to say hi," Diaz says.
The kid said, "You know everybody here. Do you own this place?"
"No, I just eat here a lot," Dias said. "But you"re even nice to the dishwasher," he said.
Diaz replied, "Well, haven"t you been taught you should be nice to everybody?"
"Yea, but I didn"t think people actually behaved that way," the teen said.
When the bill arrived, Diaz said, "You"re going to have to pay for this bill because you have my
money and I can"t pay for this. So if you give me my wallet back, I"ll gladly treat you."
The teen returned it immediately. "I gave him $20…I figure maybe it"ll help him." Diaz says he asked
for something in return- the teen"s knife-"and he gave it to me."
Afterwards, when Diaz told his mother what happened, she said, "You"re the type of kid that if
someone asked you for the time, you gave them your watch."
"I figure, you know, if you treat people right, you can only hope that they treat you right. It"s as simple
as it gets in this complicated world." |
