I went fishing with my best friend Li Hua last Sunday — an experience I’ll remember it forever. Last Sunday, Li Hua bought a set of fishing equipments so he suggested that we went fishing by a local river. It was the nice day and the fresh air there lifted our mood. We start fishing by the riverside. We didn’t get any fish in the first half an hour; therefore, we didn’t give up easily. Another 30 minutes passed, and I gradually ran out patience and began complaining about bad luck. Li Hua shared his successfully fishing experiences with me, encourage me to be patient. Finally, I caught five fish. You can’t imagine what excited I was at that time.

9 . Make the right choices

What is life’s greatest gift?     1     Choice is the ability to select one course of action from a set of alternatives to achieve a goal. What is so great about choice? It transforms us from animals into artists. Each of us becomes another Michelangelo. Choice becomes nothing other than the tool we use to sculpt (雕刻) our life. The tool doesn’t come free, however, for the price of choice is responsibility.     2     The reward is happiness.

Life is not still. It is a flow.    3     We constantly need to monitor where we are on our journey. We need to ask questions: Am I moving closer to my goals? If not, what corrective measures can I take? What action will I take now to re-adjust myself to my goals?   

    4     And your life becomes more convenient or comfortable because of them. For example, you decide which stores to shop at and which gas station to go to. But the decisions that we make to sculpt our life are far more important than deciding where to shop.

All chess lovers realize that it isn’t necessary to win to enjoy the game. The pleasure is in the playing. Life is like a chess game.    5    

A．It is free will or choice.

B．You have to make choices every day.

C．Make the best moves you can under the circumstances.

D．But when we accept and carry it out, we get a great return.

E．Every choice we make leads us closer to or farther from our goals.

F．Life is full of hard choices, and the bigger they are, the harder they get.

G．Choose to carry out responsibilities not because you have to, but because you want to.

Nowadays, more and more people have chances to travel, study, work or even live abroad. It is necessary for you to keep in mind these general    1    （rule） for polite behaviour.

If you    2    （invite）to an American friend’s home for dinner, first of all, arrive on time（but not early）. When you’re invited to someone’s home for a meal,    3    is polite to bring a small gift. Flowers or candies are always appropriate. If you have an attractive item    4    （make）in your native country, your host or hostess would certainly enjoy receiving that as a gift.

    5    （wear） proper clothes and a beautiful smile is simply not enough. Table manners are also of great    6    （important）. Do not open your mouth to talk, unless you have swallowed your food. Also chew food with your mouth    7    （close）. When you want to get the food that is at a distance, do not stretch your hands to reach    8    it. Instead, ask for the food to be passed to you.
