On Joe's 5 evening at home,I bathed little Joey,got him into his sleeper and was heading to the bedroom when Joe gently touched 6 on the shoulder. Lifting the baby from my arms,he said he wanted to put Joey to bed tonight.
They headed down the hall,and I busied myself with meaningless tasks,7 Joe toturn up from the bedroom within a few minutes. A half hour went by,and 8 he had not come back. Thinking he was having 9 getting our son to fall asleep,I walked quietly to the baby's room and 10 into the dimlylit (灯光暗淡的) room.
Sitting in the rocking chair,moving slowly back and forth,was my husband with 11 in his eyes. He was holding our baby in his arms 12 he had fallen asleep long before. When his pained eyes met mine,he said, "I just can't put him down."
That night we stood over Joey's bed,holding each other and saying over and over that we would make it through this leaving and be 13 again soon.
Joey is six now,and he has a four-year-old brother named Jack. There have been many goodbyes 14 that night,yet my soldier still fights back tears when it's time to 15 once again in service to his country and give his boys that last,long hug goodbye.

Waste can be seen everywhere in the school. Some students ask for more food than they can eat,and others often forget to turn off the lights when they leave the classroom. They say they can afford these things. But I don't agree with them.
Waste can bring a lot of problems. Although China is rich in some resources (资源) ,we are short of others,for example,fresh water. It is reported that we will have no coal or oil to use in 100 years. So if we go on wasting our resources,what can we use in the future and where can we move? Think about it. (1) I think we should say "no”to the students who waste things every day. Everybody should stop wasting as soon as possible.
In our everyday life,we can do many things to prevent waste from happening. For example,turn off the water taps when we finish washing,turn off the lights when we leave the classroom,try not to order more food than we need and so on. Little by little,everything will be changed. (2) Waste can be stopped one day,if we do our best.
1. 根据要求答题。(请注意问题后的词数要求)
1) List the wastes mentioned in the first passage. (within 15 words)
2) What problems can waste bring? (within 20 words)
