　　Hello, everyone! My name is Betty and I’m fifteen. Now I’m living with my parents and my grandma. Grandma is nearly seventy years old and she is a bit 20.d　　　　, so I have to speak up when talking to her. By talking with Grandma, I learn a lot about her life in the past. Her father was a postman. To make more 21.m　　　　, he often worked twelve hours a day outside in the winter cold or in the summer 22.h　　　　. Their house was tiny and there were no electric lights but 23.c　　　　. Grandma’s mother didn’t have a 24.f　　　　 job because she had to look after her five children. As the family was poor, Grandma didn’t even get a good education.
I feel lucky that I live in modern times. People are wealthier than they were in the past. We know how to deal with the ordinary diseases, so we have less 25.f　　　　 of getting ill. And we have more spare time to enjoy ourselves. The 26.r　　　　 of women has also changed. They can get a good education just like men.
But more wealth sometimes means less health. Because traffic and travel become easier, people 27.s　　　　 walk and they don’t exercise as much as they 28.u　　　　 to. As the number of cars is doubled, the pollution is also doubled, or even worse. 29.L　　　　, more and more people begin to realise it and it is believed that as long as we try our best to change, our world and our life will be better and better.
