Teenager Jake Deham was skiing (滑雪) with his family in the USA when he fell over and lost one of his skis. His family didn't know that he had a problem. They kept on skiing. When they got to the foot of the mountain,there was no sign of Jake.
Jake couldn't find his ski anywhere. In the end,he decided to take off his other ski and walk down the mountain. But he cou dn’t work out the right way to go.
It was now getting dark and he was a long way "from any place of safety. He knew that he might die that night in the cold temperatures. But Jake kept calm (镇定) At home,Jake watched a lot of programmes about living in difficult situations. He remembered the advice from these programmes and knew that he should build a hole in the snow. He made a hole and pointed it up the hill so the wind couldn't blow into it. Outside his hole,the temperature fell to a dangerous - 15°C that night,but inside it Jake was safe from the cold.
But he had to get down the mountain. The TV programmes always said,"If you are lost,you should find some one else's tracks (足迹) through the snow and follow them. ” “I wanted to live my life ,” remembers Jake. “So I got up and I found some ski tracks and I followed those." He walked and walked and finally he saw lights. Nine hours after he lost his ski,he found a team of worker who came to save him. He was safe!
His mum was very happy when she heard the news. Amazingly,Jake didn't even have to go to hospital. He got through the terrible experience without any injuries.
So,the next time someone says that watching TV is a waste of time,think of Jake.
Sometimes TV can save your life!

When we think of Christmas,we probably think of 1 ,Christmas trees and Santa Claus.
But behind all these things lies the true meaning of Christmas:the importance of sharing and giving love and joy to people around us. The story in A Christmas Carol is perhaps the best example of this.
A Christmas Carol is a famous short novel written by British writer Charles Dickens ( 1812— 1870) . It is about an old man 2 Scrooge who never laughs or smiles. He only thinks about himself and is 3 to share things with others. He doesn’t treat others nicely. He just cares about whether he can 4 and he hates Christmas. One Christmas Eve,Scrooge sees the ghost of Jacob Marley,his dead business partner. Marley used to be just like Scrooge,so he was 5 after he died. He warns Scrooge to change his ways if he doesn't want to end up like him. He also tells Scrooge to expect 6 ghosts to visit him.
That 7,the ghosts visit Scrooge. First,the Ghost of Christmas Past takes him back to his childhood and reminds him 8 his happy days as a child. Then the second ghost,the Ghost of Christmas Present,takes him to see 9 others are spending Christmas this year. Everyone is happy,even poor people. The last one,the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come,takes him to the 10 . Scrooge sees that he is dead,but nobody cares. He is so 11 that he wakes up in his bed and finds out it is only the next morning—— Christmas Day!
Scrooge decides to change his life and 12 to be a kind person. He 13 celebrates Christmas with his relatives. He also gives gifts to people in need. He now treats 14 with kindness and warmth,spreading love and joy everywhere he goes. And that is the true 15of Christmas!

I once knew a man who was rich in his love for birds,and in their love for him. He lived in a grove full of all kinds of trees. He had no wife or children in his home. He was an old man with blue and kind eyes,and a voice that the birds loved.
While he was at work in the grove,the birds came close to pick up the worms (螺虫) in the fresh earth he dug up. At first,they kept their distance from him,but they soon found he was a kind man,and would not hurt them,but liked to have them near him.
