I felt down because I lost the swimming competition and I wasn't able to enter the swim team.I'll have to wait for a whole 1 to try out again.
I think Dad knew my feeling.He looked at me,and then he said it was time for me to help him make the bread.Dad went to the kitchen and 2 his large bowl and told me to stir(搅拌) while he was3 the materials(原料) in it.He knows exactly how much of each thing to use without thinking,and the bread always turns out great.4 we mixed everything and made a dough (生面团), we waited for more than an hour for the dough to double in size5 .Next we deflated (放气) the risen dough.We divided it into two and waited for them to6 again.After that,we put the dough into pans and waited for another hour.Dad said the waiting was 7 the hardest part."You can't help putting the dough directly into the oven,but if you do,the bread will be8 .It will taste bad.The most important lesson is learning to be9 ,"Dad explained.
While we waited,we sat and talked.It felt good to open up and share our10 .My father taught me how to make bread,but I think I learned more.I will try my best for the next year's swimming competition.
This is a street crossing.There are red and green lights at each corner.Drivers must watch the lights carefully.
When there is a green light,the cars may go.When there is a red light,the cars must stop.They must wait until the red light changes to green.Then they can go on.Sometimes the cars want to make a right turn or a left turn.They can make a right turn when the light is green or red.But they must wait until the green light is shining if they want to turn left.
Some people are color-blind(色盲).They can not tell the difference between the red and green lights.These people must not drive,or there will be accidents.We must keep our streets safe.
What will you do during a trip?Visit famousplaces,shop and take photos?There is one thing you should never forget—send a postcard.
Postcards have 170years of history in the UK.By the 20th century,trains became a cheap and easy way to travel.More people went on holiday to the seaside.There were no cell phones,so they sent postcards to lets others know they arrived safely.Those postcards were usually seaside pictures,such as beaches and traditional food like fish and chip.
Today,most postcards show local scenic photos or drawing.Others may be funny,with jokes on the front.
People usually writes words to express"They miss someone"on their postcards.It's common to end with"thinking of you".The most famous postcard words are"wish you were here".

One day a man found a cocoon(茧) of a butterfly in the forest.He sat there for several hours and watched the butterfly.Suddenly a small opening appeared,and the butterfly made its great effort to force its body through that little hole.Then it seemed to stop making any progress.It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and it could go no further.
So the man decided to help the butterfly.He cut off the remaining bit of the cocoon so that the butterfly could come out easily.But to his surprise,the butterfly got a heavy body and very small wings when it came out of the cocoon.
The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that the body would grow smaller at any moment and the wings would become larger and be able to fly.But neither happened!In fact,the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling(爬行) around with a heavy body and small wings.It was never able to fly.
The man was in his kindness,but he did not understand the nature rules.Before the butterfly came out of the cocoon,fluid(液体) from its body must be forced into its wings,and then it would be ready for flying.It must have a hard struggle(拼搏) to get through the small opening to get its freedom from the cocoon.
Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life,if God allowed us to go through our life without any difficulties,it would make us fail.We would not be as strong as we could have been;we could never fly.

●●●1903 -The first fight succeeded.
In 1900,Wilbur Wright said flight was possible for man.After much work he and his brother Orville Wright made this dream come true.
On December 17,1903,the brothers made the first successful airplane flight on a windy beach at Kitty Hawk,North Carolina.The brothers' plane flew 120 feet.Although the flight lasted only 12 seconds,it moved the course of history in a new direction.
●●● 1935 -Nylon was invented.
In 1928,a new chemical lab was opened to make a kind of man- made materials.Wallace Carothers took part in the team when he was 32 years old.
In 1934,he made fibers (纤维),but the fibers were quite weak.He didn't give up.After many experiments,he produced the long and strong fibers in 1935.They named the fibers "nylon".Carothers was very satisfied with his work.
Nylon hit the markets in 1939 ,and quickly became a replacement of silk.But it was a pity that he didn't see the wide use of his invention.He died in April,1937.
●●● 1968-The computer mouse was first shown in public.
As a graduate student,Douglas Engelbart began to imagine ways in which all sorts of information could be on screens.
In 1964,Douglas Engelbart made the first computer mouse.The computer mouse had a wooden shell with two metal wheels.
In 1968,the first computer mouse appeared in public.It was named "mouse" because a tail came out at the end.In later years,the computer mouse became more and more important.
Douglas Engelbart changed the way that computers worked.
Now computer mice are becoming increasingly useful.And there are many different shapes of computer mice in the world.
