1 . A graduation speech given by Chief Justice John Roberts became a talking point after The Washington Post published it.

Roberts     1    (address)his son’s ninth grade graduating class. He advised the young graduates     2    (take)life’s setbacks in their stride(从容地). But he did not wish     3    (they)good luck.

“Now, the speakers will typically also wish you good luck and extend good     4    (wish) to you. I will not do that, and I will tell you why,” Roberts said.

“From time to time, in the years to come, I hope you will be treated     5    (unfair), so that you will come to know the value of justice. Sorry to say, but I hope you will be lonely from time to time, so that you don’t take friends     6    granted. I wish you bad luck again, from time to time, so that you will be conscious of the role of chance in life and understand your success is not completely deserved and     7    the failure of others is not completely deserved either.”

He continued, “I hope you     8    (ignore), so you know the importance of listening to others,     9    I hope you will have just enough pain to learn compassion.”

In the end, each graduate received a pocket-size copy of the Constitution     10    (sign) by Roberts.

When I was a kid, Mom used to cook food for us. One night after     1     (spend) a long hard day at work, Mom placed a plate of bread jam and     2     (extreme) burnt toast（烤面包） in front of my dad, I was waiting     3     (see) if he noticed it. However, while eating his toast. Dad just asked me     4     my day was at school. I don’t remember what I told him that night,    5     I do remember I heard Mom apologizing to Dad for burning the toast. I’ll never forget what Dad said, “Honey, I love burnt toast.”

Later that night, I     6     (go) to kiss Daddy good night and asked him if he really liked his toast burned. He gave me     7     big hug and said, “Your mamma put in a long hard day at work today, really     8     (tire). Besides, a burnt toast never hurts but cold words do!”

What I’ve learned over the years     9     (be) that learning to accept each other’s faults is one of the most important     10     (key) to creating a healthy, growing and lasting relationship.

3 . The Language of Love

Music is a universal language, which has the most powerful magic in the world. Music is a sweet language to show love to those who love us and those who     1    (love) by us. Music is also a friendly language for unfamiliar people to show kindness. It is living everywhere and all the time in our daily life.

I learned this while    2     (take) care of a seagull unfortunate enough to swallow a hook. After calling the wildlife rescue center and learning that all its    3    (vehicle) were out on other business, I carefully    4     (wrap) (裹住) the wild bird in a towel and carried him to my friend’s car. The only way     5    (keep) him calm was by singing. For 30 minutes, I sang    6    (soft) to the small creature until finally delivering (递送) him    7    those who could help. I’m not certain     8    happened afterwards, but for that brief period, we two vastly different species connected, bridging     9     gap between us through songs.

    10    doesn’t matter whether there will be difficulties in communication，for love is always the theme of each piece of music.
