It was raining heavily and the temperature was very high. After class, I took two 1to go to the water room to collect some hot water . Oh! There were so many people! I had to wait in the rain. My2 didn't get wet because I wore a hat, but my clothes3.
When at last it was my 4 I filled the bottles as quickly as possible. I began making my 5 back when I saw a boy coming towards me. He was6 two umbrellas in his hand. He shouted hello and as he came 7 I recognized (认出) that it was Tom.
He had been my classmate for 8three years, but we never shared more than ten sentences. He was silent, but I liked talking. We were quite9 people and had nothing in common. I didn't like him and even didn't want to see him.
“Hey! What's wrong?” His words brought me 10my thought. “I saw you standing in the rain, so I brought you this umbrella. But it seems a little 11 your clothes are already wet.”
On hearing this, I was so 12 that I couldn't say a single word.
“Don't just stand there. Let's go!” He said and held the umbrella for me. We walked towards the dormitory (宿舍) and this time we13 a lot.
“I know you don't like me, but I want to 14 with you.” he said, “You may think I am a boy with few15 but it is because I can't find the right words to say.”
The rain finally stopped and we saw a rainbow in the blue sky. I said to myself, “it is wrong to judge someone only by his appearance.”

Many people thought that U.S. President Calvin Coolidge always lived in the White House. However, he sometimes lived in the nearby Willard Hotel.
Once, in the middle of a night, the President woke up to see a thief searching his clothes. Coolidge calmly spoke up from the darkness, “I wish you wouldn't take that watch.”
“Why?” asked the shocked man.
Coolidged answered, “Take it near the window and read what is engraved(雕刻) on the back of it.”
The man read, “Presented to Calvin Coolidged, Speaker of the House, by the Massachusetts General Court.” He was very surprised!
“Are you President Coolidge?” he asked. He had never thought he would find the president sleeping in a hotel!
“Yes, I am.” Coolidge said. Then he asked, “Why are you doing this, Son?”
The young man explained that he and two friends traveled to Washington during their college vacation. They spent all of their money and had no money to pay the hotel bill and the train tickets back to school.
Coolidge added up the cost. It came to $32. That may not sound like much now, but it was a big number then. “I'll give you the $32 as a loan(借款),” the President said, “And I expect you to pay me back.”
The young man thanked him. Coolidge left him with this warning: “Son, you are a nice boy, you are better than you are acting. You are starting down the wrong road. Just remember who you are.”
It wasn't until after the death of Mr. Coolidge that this story was allowed to come out. It was first published in the newspaper Los Angeles Times. And the most interesting of all is that the President's notes show that the young man was indeed better than he was acting. He repaid the $32 loan in full.
Have you ever run into a careless mobile phone user on the street? Perhaps they were busy talking, texting or checking updates on WeChat without looking at what was going on around them. As the number of this new “species(物种)” of human has kept rising, they have been given a new name˗˗˗˗phubbers.
Recently, a cartoon created by students from China Central Academy of Fine Arts put this group of people under the spotlight(聚光灯). In the short film, phubbers with different social identities always put themselves in their phones. A doctor plays with his mobile phone while letting his patient die, a pretty woman takes selfie(自拍照) in front of a car accident site(场地), and a father loses his child without knowing about it while using his mobile phone. A chain of similar events finally leads to the destruction(毁灭) of the world.
Although the ending sounds overstated(夸张), the damage(损害)that phubbing can bring is real.
Your health is the first to bear(承受) the effect and result of it. “Constantly(不断地) bending(使弯曲) your head to check your telephone could damage your neck,” Guangming Daily quoted(引述) doctors as saying, “the neck is like a rope that breaks after long-term stretching(伸展).” Also, staring(盯着) at telephones for long periods of time will damage your eyesight gradually, according to the report.
But that's not all. Being a phubber could also damage your social skills and drive you away from your friends and family. At reunions(团聚)with family or friends, many people tend to stare at their telephones while others are chatting happily with each other and this creates a strange atmosphere, Qilu Evening News reported.
It can also cost you your life. There have been lots of reports on phubbers who fell to their death, suffered accidents, and were robbed of their telephones in broad daylight.
Because I a new job in another city.(offer)
Miracles(奇迹)will happen if you don't give up trying. Even if you have ffor one hundred times, you may succeed when you try for the 10lst time.
When I was born, my doctor told my mother that there was something wrong with my l. They were too soft to be able to walk. Athe news was bad, my mother didn't become frustrated(沮丧的). She didn't believe what the doctor said and started to look for other ways.
My mother klooking for other doctors for me, and finally she succeeded. The doctor and his team in the hospital did everything tcould to help me. They also asked my parents to teach me to do some eto help me walk. One day when my mother came to pick me up. I crawled(爬) towards her. She was so surprised and happy that she couldn't believe her eyes. Crawling was not walking, but it was a good s Day by day, I could walk by myself.
When I grew up, my mother atold me these stories. She said that if I thought of what she said whenever I met difficulties, I could do a successfully. I have been working hard and I have turned out to be a very eperson. I get best grades in school and I am a good dancer and swimmer. What the story tells us, as my mother always says, is: Never give up.

Everyone strongly wants to be a success. What is important for success? Most people think that confidence, hard work and enemies are main factors(因素) leading to success. Ronaldo said he believed he was a better player than Messi in an interview published in Spanish sports paper on Sunday.
Talking about his achievements of his career, Ronaldo showed pride. Ronaldo was also asked about Messi, who was seen as his biggest enemy to be considered the best player in the world. “Whether you are No. 1 or not is not so important. Although some people may think Messi to be the best,I think that I am.” Ronaldo said that boos(喝倒彩的嘘声) didn't make him sad, but encouraged him to practice harder.
Ronaldo insisted that hard work was important to be a top player, though at times he felt a great pain for his training, saying a body “was not used” to training hard and playing twice a week. But no pain, no gain. He said he had changed his life to make sure he was in top condition, saying that when in the past he usually went out to relax, but now he “goes home to rest for tomorrow.”
“Football is my life. It's what I love most.” he explained.
