假设你叫李明，下面是你的一位外国笔友Kristie给你写的电子邮件，询问有关小悦悦事件的情况。
Dear Li Ming,
I learned from a news flash that a two-year-old baby girl was ignored by more than a dozen passers-by after being run over twice in a south China town．I'm very shocked．I used to think the Chinese were hardworking and kindhearted, and they really were when I was on a visit in China two years ago．So I doubt whether it was true news．Can you tell me what you learned about this incident?
Sincerely yours,
Kristie
请你给她回一封邮件，要点如下：
1．社会陷入自责和反思；
2．某些路人的冷漠或另有原因，可最终还是有一名拾荒婆婆挺身而出；
3．单个事件不能代表中国，助人为乐一直是中国传统美德。
注意：
1．不能照抄原信件语句；
2．可自由发挥添加细节；
3．词数120左右；
4．回信的开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。
参考词汇：伦理道德- ethical and moral （adj．）; 美德- virtue （n．）
Dear Kristie,
I was in very low spirits

When I first entered university, my aunt, who is an English professor, gave me a new English dictionary. I was    36    to see that it was an English-English dictionary, also known as a monolingual dictionary.    37    it was a dictionary intended for non-native learners, none of my classmates had one.    38    , to be honest, I found it extremely    39    to use at first. I would look up words in the dictionary and    40    

not fully understand the meanings. I was used to the    41   bilingual dictionaries, in which the words are    42    both in English and Chinese. I really wondered why my aunt    43    to make things so difficult for me. Now, after studying English at university for three years, I    44    that monolingual dictionaries are    45    in learning a foreign language.

As I found out, there is,    46   , often no perfect equivalence(对应)between two    47   in two languages. My aunt even goes so far as to    48   that a Chinese “equivalent” can never give you the    49    meaning of a word in English!    50  , she insisted that I read the definition(定义)of a word in a monolingual dictionary    51    I wanted to get a better understanding of its meaning.    52   , I have come to see what she meant.

Using a monolingual dictionary for learners has helped me in another important way. This dictionary uses only a(n)   53    number of words, around 2,000, in its definitions. When I read these definitions, I am    54    exposed to(接触)the basic words and learn how they are used to explain objects and ideas.    55    this, I can express myself more easily in English.

A great many people are disappointed because of unrealistic expectations.
Walking up to a department store’s cloth counter, a(n)  1   young woman said, “I want to buy this material for a new dress. How much does it cost?”
“Only one   2   per yard,” replied the smirking (自鸣得意的) male clerk.
Not to be taken back by the funny words, the woman said,” That’s fine! I’ll take ten yards.”
With   3  written all over his face, the clerk   4   measured out and wrapped the cloth, then held it out teasingly,  5  forward to receive his “  6  ”.
The woman got the package quickly from the clerk and pointed to a little old man standing beside her. “Grandpa will pay the bill instead of me,” she   7  .
He was no doubt disappointed. But in the course of living, many people are  8         when others do not   9  their expectations. In order to be happy, some expectations must be dropped. These three particular   10   and unhealthy expectations are some of the main causes:
1. Expect too much  11  .When others say, “Thank you,” or in any way to show their gratitude, be happy. It is a gift!
2. Expect others to make you happy. They simply cannot do that. Make yourself happy and       12  your joy with others.
3. Expect not to be  13   . At times, people will simply not come through for you in the way you need.  14   them and move on.
Get rid of these three unrealistic expectations and you can begin to expect more   15        right away!

I devote myself to music because of my grandmother. My mom and I lived with grandparents from the time I was two until I was eight. And even then, I was at their house before and after school every day while my mother was at work.
Grandma loved music. It was her that first _31 me to Elvis Presley as a very young child, and once I heard his music, I was truly in 32 with it. Most five-year-olds ask for 33  for birthdays, but I wanted Elvis’albums. I would play them non-stop and 34 to the music in my grandma’s family room though my movements didn’t look good.
Grandma played the piano and 35  me to sing “America the Beautiful” and “Somewhere over the Rainbow”. I 36 started playing music on the piano, and soon Grandma was paying for me to take piano lessons from a lady living in the 37 . I would come home from __38 and walk three houses down for my lesson. I _39 took about nine months of lessons, but it was enough to give me a(n) 40 and allow me to continue  to teach myself.
Last month when I came home to visit Grandma in the hospital, I brought along my guitar with me. She was in a lot of pain, but the music seemed to _41 her soul. She had me sing some songs and when I started to sing “Somewhere over the Rainbow”, her weakened voice 42 in with mine for a few lines. That experience was one of the most 43 of my lifetime and one I will certainly cherish forever. I told her of my music career and she was very _44 and said, “That’s wonderful!” I _45 to play for her throughout the week I was home.
My grandma passed away two days ago. In my opinion, part of her will live on through every song I write or sing in my life.
