When the typhoon  arrived, the villagers were busy constructing  some houses. Some of them earned their living  by means of this work. Some rocks rolled  from the mountain. Many of them suffered the separation   from their family, for some of them were killed in the typhoon and others had to flee  .

    Lots of people stress out about talking in front of the class or getting laughed at if they make a mistake in front of an audience. The “stress hormones" that your body produces at times like these can actually help you focus.

    But when worry and stress about performing get to be too much, these hormones give people that “red alert(紧急状态)” feeling—the one that causes you to feel cold or sweaty, or get butterflies in your stomach.

    Be prepared. Rehearse(排练) as much as you can and practice in front of others at every opportunity. Most of all, think positively. Tell yourself “I'll be OK" or “I can do this" even if you are not 100% sure of it

    Look after yourself. Before big performances it's easy to let taking care of yourself slip as you spend too much time on rehearsals and practice. Exercise can also help you feel good, and along with sleep and nutrition, is an excellent way of keeping those stress hormones from getting out of control.

    Find out what the experts do. You can find books, DVDs, and online information about how to give your best when you perform, depending on what type of performance you're preparing for. Or ask the cast of your school play or your drama or music teacher how they beat stage fright. And if your parents or grandparents ever performed, they may have their own secrets to share.

Writing A Letter To Your Future Self

    Just imagine writing a letter to your future self 5 years from now, then opening it at that exact moment to see how much of it has come true.

    As you read the letter in the future, you can assess how many things agree with your expectations in the past. Often times, the goals we set and our goal achievement process are affected by a lot of changes along the way. The letter lets you recognize how your current idea differs from the past.

    In addition to that, at the very moment you are writing the letter, your thoughts are stored right there in those words. When you open the letter in the future, you as your future self gets to compare how you used to be in the past with how you are now.  . It's very interesting to do so.

    Take out a pen and paper right now and start writing your letter to your future self. Set a time period to write to. Then start writing. Think about the type of person you will be, your place in life, what you will have realized then, and so on.

    Put it in a safe space where no one can find it. When you open this sometime in the near future, you might gain additional insights(了解) about yourself and your journey in the past few years.

    Now whenever I get close to (lose) my patience, I'll think of a report that I watched on TV years ago. It (report) that nearly 100, 000 people died from traffic accidents that year, causing a lot of damage and pain for individuals and society. Road safety has aroused (wide) attention of the public than ever before. In recent years, many rules (make) to reduce the traffic crashes, especially for the ones (involve) in the pedestrians. As far as I'm concerned, we should take road safety (serious) in our daily life. While using the road, we must walk on the pavement, take notice of the traffic lights and learn to protect (we). Besides, car drivers should obey the traffic rules, which is both good for themselves and others. Above all, we should teach our children to treasure life and get to know and obey the traffic rules.  

    All  all, life is so precious that we can't afford to lose it. Obeying the traffic rules is  all of us should pay attention to particularly. Only by attaching great importance to traffic safety can we all live    better life.

Fortunately, the bus never stopped. The man kept follow the bus until he arrived home. The man was very glad that he could save a bit money. He happily told his wife, “Honey, today I ran after the buses until getting home. I didn't have to pay the fee.” Surprisingly, the wife blamed her, “You fool! Do you know how many you could save if you ran after a taxi?”

But a disease forced her to experience an emergency operation to deliver their new daughter. At 12 inches long and 1only one pound and nine ounces, she was a premature baby. But the doctor's soft words dropped like 2. "I don't think she's going to make it," he said.

    In today's busy and competitive world, we all lead incredibly stressful lives. When stress becomes overwhelming, it can affect our mood and productivity. The good news is that it is manageable and can be reduced, or even relieved completely.

    Enter the world of books. Feeling stressed out? Pick up your favorite book and leave the reality and worries behind. It is the most effective way to relax and overcome stress. Getting lost in a book before bedtime can calm your mind and prepare your body for a good night's sleep.

    Connect with people. Another way to successfully beat stress is meeting with friends. Friends and loved ones are important to any healthy lifestyle. If you're feeling a little overwhelmed and just can't seem to shake it off, call your best friend or a member of your family and talk to them.

    Walk it off. You can also effectively relieve yourself of stress by simply taking a walk around your neighborhood. There's a whole new world up there that you never seem to notice while rushing to work or talking to someone. Take a moment to admire a new building or a balcony somewhere high up that reminds you of a castle from your favorite movie. Enjoy your time alone and seize every moment of it.

    Nothing brings you back on track like a good laughter. It is the most powerful antidote(良方) to stress and it brings joy into your life. Laughing brings people together and drives away all stress-related problems as if they never existed. It is absolutely the best medicine there is, and it will keep you both physically and emotionally healthy.

—I'd like to，but I ________Shanghai when you return.

    At thirteen, I was diagnosed(诊断) with a kind of attention disorder. It made school difficult for me. When everyone else in the class was focusing on tasks, I could not.

    In my first literature class, Mrs. Smith asked us to read a story and then write on it, all within 45 minutes. I raised my hand right away and said, “Mrs. Smith, you see, the doctor said I have attention problems. I might not be able to do it.” She glanced down at me through her glasses, “You are no different from your classmates, young man.”

    I tried, but I didn't finish the reading when the bell rang. I had to take it home.

    In the quietness of my bedroom, the story suddenly all became clear to me. It was about a blind person, Louis Braille. He lived in a time when the blind couldn't get much education. But Louis didn't give up. Instead, he invented a reading system of raised dots(点), which opened up a whole new world of knowledge to the blind.

    Wasn't I the “blind” in my class, being made to learn like the “sighted” students? My thoughts spilled out and my pen started to dance. I completed the task within 40 minutes. Indeed, I was no different from others; I just needed a quieter place. If Louis could find his way out of his problems, why should I ever give up?

    I didn't expect anything when I handed in my paper to Mrs. Smith, so it was quite a surprise when it came back to me the next day—with an “A” on it. At the bottom of the paper were these words: “See what you can do when you keep trying?”

    My dream school starts at 8:30 a.m. and ends at 3:30 p.m. They are three lessons in the morning and two in the afternoon. We didn't need to do so much homework. Therefore, we have more time with after-school activities. For example, we can do reading for one and a half hour and play sports for one hour every day.

    My dream school look like a big garden. There are all kinds of the flowers and trees around the classroom buildings. We can lie on the grass for a rest, or sat by the lake listening music. The teachers here are kind and helpfully. They are not only our teachers but also our friends.

    Many years ago, when I worked as a volunteer at Stanford Hospital, I got to know a little girl Liz who was suffering from a rare and serious disease. Her only chance of recovery appeared to be a blood transfusion（输血） her 5-year-old brother, had miraculously survived the same disease and had developed the antibodies needed to fight the (ill).

    The doctor explained the situation to her little brother, and asked the boy if he would be willing to give his blood to his sister. I saw him hesitate for a moment before (take) a deep breath and saying, “Yes, I'll do it it can save Liz.”

    the transfusion progressed, he lay in bed next to his sister. (see) the color returning to her cheeks, he smiled. Then face grew pale and his smile disappeared. He looked up at the doctor and asked with a trembling voice, “Will I start to die right now?”

    Being young, the boy had  (understand) the doctor; he thought he was going to have to give his sister all of his blood.
