One day, Jack’s parents told him that his grandpa would retire（退休） the next week after working for forty years and that they were going to have a party for him. Jack loved his Grandpa and wanted to do something special for him. He remembered the business card his grandpa had given him two years before. He     1     (know) that his grandpa would no longer have the position on that card, so he decided     2     (build) a new one for his grandpa. When     3     big day came, Jack was ready.     4     he didn’t want to put his gift together with others’. When all the other people left, he took his grandpa’s hand and gave him the gift. His grandpa smiled, “Well, it must be a beautiful gift. May I open it now? ” “Sure!” Jack said     5     (happy). As Grandpa opened the gift,     6     (tear) came into his eyes. Jack gave him the     7     (great) gift he had ever got! It was a business card,     8     read “FULL-TIME GRANDPA! ”“Well, how much do I get paid? ” his grandpa asked,     9     (smile). “As many hugs（拥抱）as you want! ”     10     these words, Jack gave Grandpa a hug. “Well, I guess that means I’m the richest man in the world! ” said Grandpa.

My mother entered a nursing home (疗养院) as her Alzheimer’s disease got worse. I    1    (smile) as I tried to explain to a Chinese friend that many Americans really care about their aging parents.But parents often enjoy    2    (live) by themselves and may refuse help.Of course this is different from most Chinese parents who want to    3    (stay) with their adult children in the future.

After living    4    China for over 30 years, I came to appreciate (欣赏) the Chinese people’s care for their aging    5    (parent). Every morning when the sun would warm up the little park near my home, I saw a man-maybe the son-walk with his    6     (mother) who obviously had suffered a stroke (中风). He supported her weak body and walked    7    (slow) with her as she dragged one foot behind her. I couldn’t    8    (tell) if they were talking as I watched them through my window, but it was a picture of love between mother and son.

I don’t know what care is better for aging parents, but in    9    (me) opinion, I have lacked (缺乏) enough respect for the elderly. I have learned more from the Chinese about what    10    (true) love is.

Many students may feel stressed because of their parents. Most parents have good intentions,     1     some of them are not very helpful with the problems their sons and daughters have in     2     (adjust) to college, and a few of them seem to go out of their way to add to their children’s     3     (difficulty)．

For one thing, parents are often not aware of (意识到) the kinds of problems their     4     (child) face. They don’t realize that the     5     (compete) is stronger, that the required standards of work are     6     (high), and that their children may not be prepared for     7     change. They may be upset by their children’s poor grades. At their kindest, they may     8     (gentle) ask why John or Mary isn’t doing better, whether he or she is trying as hard as he or she should, and so on. At their worst, they may threaten     9     (take) children out of college or cut off living expenses.

Sometimes parents think it right and natural that they determine     10     their children do with their lives. They forget that everyone is different and that each person must develop in his or her own way.

A young man in Wuhan, Hubei Province has become the latest Internet sensation after a video showing his heart-warming act on a subway train went viral on social media     1    (recent).

In the video, the man can be seen    2    (hold) his mobile phone in his hand after falling asleep on a Metro, with a message in large font on the screen which reads, “Please wake me if you need my seat.”

The video     3    (capture) by a fellow passenger who posted it on Weibo. The video,     4    was just 7 seconds long, has been viewed more than 19 million times in just two days. Chinese netizens（网民）were greatly touched by the young man’s act and applauded him for his     5    (kind). A web user even commented, “I only needed 7 seconds to fall     6    love with this young man.”

The humble man     7    (refuse) an interview invitation after becoming an Internet star and said that he just did what he felt he should. In a Weibo post, he thanked netizens for     8    (they) love and praise. He said he would always fall asleep when he had nothing to do on the train but worried others may need the seat, so he got     9    idea of making a message on his phone screen.

He added that he hopes the positive energy can spread     10    (far).

On our way to the house, it was raining    1    hard that we couldn’t help wondering how long it would take    2    (get) there. It was in the middle of Pearl City.

We were first greeted with the barking by a group    3    dogs, seven to be exact. They were well trained by their masters    4    had great experience with caring for these animals. Our hosts shared many of their experiences and    5    (suggest) wonderful places to eat, shop, and visit. For breakfast, we were able to eat papaya (木瓜) and other fruits from their trees in the backyard.

When they were free from work, they invited us to local    6    (event) and let us know of an interesting competition to watch, together with the story behind it. They also shared with us many    7    (tradition) stories about Hawaii that were    8    (huge) popular with tourists. On the last day of our week-long stay, we    9    (invite) to attend a private concert on a beautiful farm on the North Shore under the stars,    10     (listen) to musicians and meeting interesting locals.

I have a warm story to share with you. A school in San Francisco not only accepted a deaf student, but also     1     (teach) the entire class sign language to allow them to better communicate with him.

The     2     (move) story began in September last year when a woman asked the primary school in her neighborhood     3    (accept) her six-year-old son, James,     4     has a hearing disability. The teacher, Lily, agreed almost immediately, but     5     the first day of school, she noticed James     6     (sit) all by himself, unable to communicate with any of his classmates.

Determined to find a way out, Lily tried developing a few signs of     7     own. But a parent of another child came up with an even     8     (good) idea—getting the whole class to learn sign language along with James. So they got a sign language teacher. And three months later, James was able to communicate    9     (happy) with all his classmates about regular(常规) things like homework and    10    (game).
