Helen’s diary entry		Jim’s diary entry
June 15th Today I went on a school trip. We visited the science museum and it was really interesting. We got there so fast by train. We saw some farms and villages along the way. At the museum, I learned a lot about robots. I didn’t know they could play chess with us. It was so cool! Then the guide taught us how to make a model robot. I took a lot of photos, too. After that, I went to the gift shop and bought some lovely gifts for my parents. They weren’t expensive. All in all, it was an exciting day.		June 15th I think today’s school trip was terrible. We took the train to the science museum. It was so hot on the slow train. The museum was big and boring. Everything was about robots and I’m not interested in that. The rooms were really dark and it was difficult to take photos, so I didn’t take any. There were also too many people and I couldn’t really see or hear the guide. The things in the gift shop were so expensive. I didn’t like the trip at all.

How do you get to school? Do you walk or ride a bike? Do you go by bus or by car? For many students, it is easy to get to school. But for the students in one small village in China, it is difficult. There is a very big river between their school and the village. There is no bridge and the river runs too quickly for boats. So these students go on a ropeway to cross the river to school.

One 11-year-old boy, Liangliang, crosses the river every school day. But he is not afraid because he loves school. “I love to play with my classmates. And I love my teacher. He’s like a father to me.”

Many of the students never leave the village. It is their dream to have a bridge. Can their dream come true?

If an old man suddenly falls down in front of you, will you help him? Most of us would choose to help him     1     we know it’s the right thing to do. But others might refuse     2     (do) so. In my opinion, we should not only think about     3     (we) but others as well.

I’ve had an experience like this before. I saw a woman walking with a baby in her arms while it     4     (rain) heavily. They were both wet because they don’t have     5     umbrella. I held out my umbrella for them     6     (quick) and I walked several miles with them till they got home. The woman thanked me a lot for     7     I did for her. Offering help to people     8     trouble can make them feel really warm. And perhaps one day we’ll become the ones who need help. So why don’t we just reach out a helpful hand whenever we can? The more we trust and help each other, the     9     (good) our world will be.

It’s time for us to show our     10     (kind) to others.
