?Long time ago, if a child had some problems in his life, he might go home and write in his   21 . Now, a child with the same problems might go onto the Internet and write about them in a blog（博客. In many ways, a diary and a blog are very   22 .So, what makes blogging different from writing in a   23 diary?
The biggest difference is that blogging is much more   24 than a diary. Usually, a teenager treats her diary like a book full of   25   that she does not want to   26 .
It’s interesting that someone who writes in a blog  27 a diary will probably write nearly the same information.
I have a little sister, and sometimes I go online to read her blog. She   28 about things like waking up early for swimming practice and not studying enough for her chemistry test.  29 I was her age, I wrote about the same things, but   30 in my diary. Then, after I had finished writing, I would hide my diary in a secret place because I was   31 that my sister might read it!
The biggest  32 with blogging is that anyone can read what you write. If I were angry with a friend during high school and wrote something   33 about her in my diary, she would never know.  34 , if my sister ever wrote something bad about a friend, that friend   35 read her blog and get angry.
There are also   36 to blogging, of course. If I were feeling sad one day and wrote in my diary, “Nobody cares about me,”  37 would know about it. However if my sister wrote the same sentence in her blog, her best friends would   38 respond（回应）and tell her how much they like her. Blogs help people   39 in contact with their friends and to hear what the people   40 them are doing.

She was so angry that she rushed out into the rain ______ I could stop her.

A boy was walking home from school when he saw a large, tempting （诱人的）apple on one of the branches of an apple tree hanging out over a tall fence. The boy wasn’t much of a fruit-eater,  1 a bar of chocolate if given the choice, but, as they say, the forbidden fruit can be tempting. Seeing the apple, the boy wanted it. The more he looked at it, the     2   he felt and the more he wanted that apple.
3    as high as he could, but even at his tallest  4  , he was unable to touch it. He began to  5 up and down , as high as he could, at the  6  of each jump stretching his arms to get the apple . Still it remained out of 7 .   Not giving up , he thought , if only he had something to  8 on . His school bag wouldn’t give enough height and he didn’t want to  9  the things inside , like his lunch box , pencil case , and Game boy. Looking around, he hoped he might find an old box , a rock , or , with luck , even a ladder , but it was a tidy neighborhood and there was nothing he could use. He had tried everything he could think to do. Without seeing any other choices , he gave up and started to walk   10  . At first he felt angry and disappointed thinking about how hungry he had become from his  11  , and how he really wanted that apple .The more he  12 like this , the more unhappy he became.
However ,the boy of our story was a pretty smart guy, even if he couldn’t always get what he wanted .He started to say to himself . This isn’t    13 ,I don’t have the apple and I’m feeling miserable as well. There’s 14   more I can do to get the apple-that is unchangeable-but we are supposed to be able to  15  our feelings. If that’s the case, what can I do to feel better?
