When I was in my first year of college, a friend recommended a book about realizing dreams. Usually, I read 46 except gaming blogs. But I was going through a rough time, and she 47 that if I read one page per day, and spent 5-10 minutes thinking about what that page said, my thoughts would begin to change.
For two years, I woke up every 48 day and read a page out of this book. Then, I either sat in 49 or wrote down what the page made me think of. I started to 50 I was good at coming up with ideas but 51 at seeing them through. I started to understand why I 52 to make friends. I was very afraid to talk to people I’d never 53 or didn’t know very well. Once I became 54 of this, I started 55 myself. I pushed myself to talk to one person in the lift of my apartment a day. Even if I just said “Hey”, that was a big 56 . I failed a lot. I had a lot of 57 conversations where I probably sounded like a fool. But slowly and surely, I was able to 58 a conversation with anyone.
I just keep experimenting with different routines, trying to improve myself. I urge you to 59 the same. There is no quicker way to better yourself. But what does help is 60 . With determination, practice every day, and watch your life change.

But the very thing that made him a failure as a service dog meant he was likely 36 for another dog job. Sheldon was sent to the State Farm Arson Dog Program, where his sensitive(灵敏的) nose soon put him 37 the class for detecting the accelerants(探测肋燃剂) used to light illegal fires.

After three days, no one had been able to figure out how the fire got started — but the cause wasn’t 42 to Sheldon. “I put him to 43 . It took him about 30 seconds to give me an alert(警报),” Tadlock said. Sheldon found the evidence with no 44 .

I love everything about animals. Today, I went out for a simple walk to my library, when I 46 a dog! The dog looked like a German Shepard, and I, being an animal 47 , approached it. I noticed it had a 48 , but no leash. I tried asking multiple people around the dog if it 49 them, but everyone said no. I felt so bad, and didn’t know what to do. She was so friendly and sweet that I felt 50 about just leaving her there.
Then, what do you know She started 51 me! I couldn’t help but smile at that. I was the only one who showed any 52 in her, petting her, talking to her, walking with her. So, together, we walked towards the 53 . I finally got a chance to 54 the number on her collar, but no one picked up! I was so 55 about this animal, and I was determined to not just leave it 56 around. I planned to head to a pet store.
However, before I even got to a store, a car 57 up in front of me with a father and two kids. It turns out that she was their dog, and had gotten 58 when the little boy opening their fence! They were so relieved to find her, and 59 me non-stop. I was relieved too! The dog 60 jumped into the car and I said goodbye to her.

When a new worker at a charity shop found lots of $100 bills inside two old sweaters, she thought that they must be fake(假的).
The shop at Goodwill Industries then realized they were certainly 61 and the cash totaled $42,000.
Andrea Lessing was in the back 62 clothes and looking for rips or stains(裂口或污渍) when she saw the 63 , and the first thing she thought of was her 64 .
“Her birthday is coming up, so I can actually give her an amazing birthday 65 .” she said.
But Lessing said she 66 that what goes around comes around, and couldn’t imagine keeping the money for herself.
She reported the 67 cash, and the shop in Noman. Oklahoma was able to find the 68 , thanks to some identifiable documentation(可辨认的文件) that was put together with the money inside the donation.
The owner, who had 69 about the money when he donated the 70 , gave Lessing $1000, which made her break down and cry.
Reportedly, it’s not just the 71 cash find in Oklahoma Goodwill history, it ranks(属某等级) among the top 72 for Goodwill internationally — and the reward(奖励) will help Lessing give her daughter an “amazing birthday party”.
“I made the right 73 .” Lessing said.

A Pair of Wild Geese
One morning in early fall, I noticed a pair of wild geese on our pond. The beautiful sight caught me by surprise, because we’d never seen geese there before.
I thought they would soon be on their way, so I seized the opportunity to be 91 to these graceful creatures. As the days passed, my curiosity about why they were staying so long at the pond changed to concern. It wouldn’t be long before the cold Michigan winter came and the pond 92 over.
One day as they were 93 in the grass near the driveway, I discovered the reason for their 94 — the male had a broken left wing. He was unable to 95 , and his lifelong mate would not leave him behind. I was amazed at the 96 between them. I asked a wildlife biologist friend what I should do. He explained that sometimes a broken wing would 97 by itself and suggested letting them alone.
On the first day of November, I was working near the geese with my tractor. 98 I bent to fasten a chain, I noticed both geese running toward the pond, wings beating 99 . They looked like a couple of planes moving for take off. 100 , both were in the air and flew over the pond freely. The geese then circled back toward me, flying about 50 feet over my 101 as if to say goodbye. Then they were out of 102 .
The season’s first snowflakes fell the very next day. The birds must have 103 that winter was coming, and it was time to go.

Yesterday I went to my bank to just sign one document. An employee Mrs. U is like my younger sister and we are 106 .

(2023浙江省杭州高一上期末)Temperatures in the Norwegian capital regularly drop to -10℃ during winter. 121 in the cold winter without wearing a coat, a boy wrapped his arms around himself on a bus stop bench.
It’s 122 scene, but the actions of the ordinary people who witnessed the dilemma of 11-year-old Johanne was both joyous and 123 .
A young woman sitting next to the boy noticed him rubbing his arms. She immediately asked him, “Don’t you have a 124 ” “No. Someone stole it,” he replied. She 125 and learned he was on a school trip and was told to meet his teacher at the bus stop. She asked him the name of his school and where he was from as she 126 draped(披上) her own coat around his shoulders.
Later, another woman gave him her scarf and then 127 him in her large overcoat. Throughout the day, more and more people 128 to give him gloves and even the coats off their backs as they waited for their bus.
129 , Johanne’s experience was an experiment by Norwegian charity SOS Children’s Villages.

Many of the refugees(难民) have left their homes 132 winter clothing.

(2023陕西省西安高一上期末)Yesterday was Mother’s Day. Unfortunately, my mother was not among the many happy mothers, as I couldn’t visit her this year. I made a 136 on the phone that I would go to see her as soon as possible.
My mother always says that kids don’t need to 137 a national day to say they love their mums. However, I remember one year I 138 calling her on that very day, and the next morning she rang up to complain about it.
If you 139 Thailand, you could hear the sentimental(伤感的) songs about mothers’ greatest love playing in public places a week before the holiday. Schools, especially, take this day very 140 . Back in my teenage years, I 141 there was once a Mother’s Day singing competition and my friend represented the school. She was so emotional while singing the famous song on Mother’s Day 142 “Kah Nam Nom” that she almost didn’t finish the song.
However, her deep connection to the song helped her to 143 third prize. After the contest, I asked her why she was so emotional 144 the song. She told me that while she was singing, suddenly she had the 145 that one day her mother would no longer be with her and every word in the song became heartbreaking. Every time I hear this song, it’s not my mother who 146 to my mind but a picture of my friend crying with a microphone in her hand. The image 147 vivid today.
Last week, a colleague 148 an experience with me—every year on Mother’s Day, she has to attend a 149 ceremony at her daughter’s school. Every year the teachers invite mothers to the school for a big gathering in which students pay 150 with flower garlands (花环).
