Last week, our class was     1     duty in cafeteria for self-management. On the first day, I was shocked to see so much leftover food     2     (throw) away. What a waste! Concerned about it, my classmates and I had a     3     (heat) discussion on how to solve the problem. Lots of good ideas came up, such as holding class meetings, putting up wall newspapers and charging a fine for wasting food. Finally we all agreed that wall newspapers would be     4       (good) choice.

The next day, we put our idea into    5     (real). Towards lunch time, we put up     6     wall newspaper outside the school cafeteria,     7       (call) on students not to waste food. Many students gathered around to read and expressed their support. To my great delight, there were changes soon. In the cafeteria, I found the trays returned after lunch all empty     8     any leftover. Food       9    (save) and the dining hall was cleaner. Seeing this, I felt relieved and took pride in     10     we had done.

This is a true story     1     happened in the States. A man came out of his home to admire his new truck. To his puzzlement, his three-year-old son was     2     (happy) hammering dents into the shiny paint of the truck. The man ran to his son, knocked him away, hammered the little boy’s hands into pulp as punishment. When the father calmed down, he rushed his son to the hospital.

    3     the doctor tried desperately to save the crushed bones, he finally had to cut the fingers from both the boy’s hands. When the boy     4     (wake) up from the operation and saw his bandaged stubs, he innocently said, ” Daddy, I’m sorry about your truck.” Then he asked, “     5     when are my fingers going to grow back?” The father went home and committed suicide.

Think about this story     6     next time someone steps on your feet or you wish to take revenge. Think first     7     you lose your patience with someone you love. Trucks can be repaired.     8     (break) bones and hurt feelings often can’t. Too often we fail     9     (realize) the difference between the person and the performance. We forget that forgiveness is greater than revenge.

People make mistakes. We     10     (allow) to make mistakes. But the actions we take while in a rage will impress us forever.

A toy animal might not mean much     1     the average person. But for a child, it could mean the world. When 10-year- old Leon Ashworth’s mom couldn’t afford     2     (buy) him a toy panda he badly wanted, he wrote a pitiful note on the toy’s box begging other     3     (shopper) not to buy it. What happened next     4     (be) so heartwarming that it would melt you.

The boy, Leon Ashworth,     5     lives in Liverpool, England with his mom, first saw his beloved “Pandy” at Asda (a supermarket). Though he was willing to wait with     6     (patient) until his mom     7     (pay) the next week, the supermarket’s staff decided to do something extremely     8     (thought) after they noticed Leon’s note. They decided to buy it for him.

In search of the young author, whom they didn’t know at the time, they posted the note on Facebook and eventually attracted the attention of Debbie Ashworth, who     9     (immediate) recognized her son’s handwriting. The Asda crew invited the mom and her son back to the supermarket, and had a wonderful surprise for them. “This is     10     best day of my life,” Leon said to his mom excitedly.

There are the obvious places one might think of visiting first such as the Forbidden City, Summer Palace and so on. All     1     (undoubted) great choices with much to offer, however, I would like to throw another suggestion into the mix.

Zhihua Temple, meaning “temple of wisdom attained”,     2     (build) in the Ming Dynasty in 1444 and is the only     3     (remain) Buddhist temple with Ming characteristics in Beijing. Constructed     4     (honour) a powerful historical figure, the temple     5     (contain) the usual structures you might find within a temple. However, Zhihua Temple has some subtle differences and unique     6     (feature) that raise it to another level.

Once inside, seeing faded paintwork, you really feel the age of the relics and the weight of the history upon them,     7     allows for a greater appreciation of the skills that went into their creation hundreds of years ago. Within the temple there are museum exhibitions with a series of photos that let you see how the temple was and provide more insight     8     its long history. Finally, perhaps the biggest     9     (attract) for me is being able to explore the complex in relative peace and quiet in one of the busiest cities in the world.

Every historical building in Beijing has something to offer and teach us, but Zhihua Temple provides enough of a different flavor to stand shoulder to shoulder with the better-known locations     10     is surely worth visiting.
