I thanked him his kindness (善良) when he arrived. I was happy for my friend. She came to this city only two weeks ago. So the phone was very to her.
I wrote an email to tell her I got her phone. She said she felt warm to be in such a city. I felt warm on such a cold, rainy day, too.
Lisa has always been fat. She wanted to lose weight, not only because she wanted to look smarter and healthier, but also because it would make life (easy).
For example, it was difficult Lisa to find ready-made clothes. She had to ask a tailor(裁缝) (make) clothes that were large enough. In the school, she needed a special chair that was bigger and stronger than other (chair). If she went for a walk, she got tired very (quick).
She was also unhappy about the way people treated her sometimes. She couldn't enjoy having dinner with her friends she was afraid to get fatter.
But now things are quite different. Last month, her classmates were preparing for the School Art Week. They (invite) Lisa to play the lead role of the Proud Queen who was tall and fat. Lisa agreed and practiced a lot.
Soon after the play, Lisa became a star! She did so well everybody remembered the Proud Queen. She even won the School Best Actress Award for (she) wonderful performance.
Now Lisa doesn't worry being fat any more. She believes in the English saying "Every dog has its day".

You may have heard of Niagara Falls（尼亚加拉大瀑布), but do you know about the Niagara Escarpment(断崖)?It's a long steep slope(陡坡)runs through the US and Canada. Earlier this month, our school went on a hiking trip to this beautiful place.
The weather was cold, cloudy and windy, so we wore more(stay)warm. We(divide)into two groups and went on different routes(路线). The whole escarpment is 725km long. But we only covered 8km for about four(hour).
My favorite part of the trail(dx道)was the cave(山洞). The cave was formed from many different shaped rocks. Some were huge while thewere small. We climbed down into the rocksthe help of our teachers. The rocks were steep and slippery(滑的)because they were wet. It was exciting experience for all of us.
After(walk)5 km without any rest, we were hungry and tired. our teacher finally said we could stop to have lunch, we were very excited. After all, this trail was a little different from the ones I'm used to. It was(natural)than before.
We always remind ourselves that life will be better after we graduate. Then, we are (worry) that we may not get a good job. After getting a job, we are wondering we can finish all the work well or not. We think we will certainly be happy when all the problems are dealt with.
We always imagine living a perfect life after we get a nice car and are able to go on a vacation after we retire. But the (true) is that there is no better time than right now. Our life will always be (fill) with challenges. New problems will appear again after we solve the old . Never doubt (oneself) when problems come up and it's certain that you can finally manage to get over all the difficulties. It's necessary to realize this and try to be happy every day.
One of my favorite quotes(引述) from Alfred Souza is that "For a long time it seemed to me that a new and happy life was about to begin. But there were always some difficulties and challenges along the way, something to be dealt with first, some unfinished work, a bill to be paid. Then life would begin. At last I came to understand that these difficulties are just my life."
This view makes a great difference me. It gives me courage to face all the difficulties in an active way instead of (run) away from them. It also helps me know that there is no way to happiness. So value every moment that you have now.
And always remember time waits for no one. You can never afford to waste your time waiting for a better life to come the present time is the best. So stop waiting you graduate, you get married, you have kids and you get a new car. Enjoy your life now!
Danny lived with his mother in a small town. They were poor and got by only with what his mother earned a washerwoman. Although they were poor, they were always (help) to those in need.
One day, Danny was walking in town when he (see) an old man carrying a huge bag. The man looked tired and hungry. He was walking around asking people to help him carry the bag. Nobody agreed to help him. Danny offered to give him a hand. The old man told Danny that he had no money to pay him.
With laugh, Danny said that he was just trying to help. He took the bag and put it onto his shoulder. It was heavy! Danny asked the old man where he wanted (go). He told Danny to follow him. As they walked, Danny (realise) that they were heading towards his house.
The old man stopped right in front of it. "This is my house!" cried Danny. The old man did not say a word. He just (turn) around and told Danny, "This bag is for you. Use it well." Then he went off.
Danny opened the bag and he was (surprise) to find a lot of money inside. A note inside it said "Help comes to those who help." From then on, Danny and his mother lived happily. They (continue) to help those in need.
