I really only meant it as a joke. I wasn't trying to steal anything honestly.
My friend Matthew started bringing his new cell phone to class last week. He was walking around bragging (吹嘘) about it to everyone. He was saying, "My cell phone can download the newest  36 off the Internet."Then he 37 everyone by downloading a game and starting to play it. The pictures and sound were really 38  .
39  class, he would use his cell phone to watch TV. The rest of us didn't have a phone like 40  , so we had to crowd(拥挤) around him. I was just trying to see the screen,  41there were so many other kids that I could not see it clearly. I was getting really jealous.
But then yesterday, he forgot his cell phone at the end of class. He left it right on his desk. 42  noticed it was there except me. I decided to teach him a lesson. I took his phone quietly off the desk, and put it in my own bag. My  43  was to give it back to him the next day. I44  wanted to see his reaction (反应). Maybe he would stop being such a show-off.
But this morning he rushed into class, screaming and yelling (吼叫). He was very 45 and almost mad. He started accusing (指责) different people of 46  his phone, but I had it in my  47  the whole time. He even started fighting with another classmate  48   Matthew was sure that person had taken it. The teacher sent them to the headmaster's office. They 49  got in a lot of trouble. Now I don't know what to 50  ! If I tell him that I took the cell phone, he'll think I stole it. If I don't tell him, then I really did steal it. How did I get into such a trouble?

In a nice house there lived an old man. Behind the house there was a big garden. He planted many plants there. He took care of his   41  all the time, watering and fertilizing (施肥) them.
One day a young man went by the   42 . He looked at the beautiful flowers, imagining how happy he could be   43  he lived in such a beautiful place. Then, suddenly he found the old gardener was   44 . He was very surprised about this and asked, “You can’t see these flowers.   45  are you busy taking care of them every day?”
The old man smiled and said, “I can tell you four   46 . First, I was a gardener when I was young, and I really like this job. Second,   47  I can’t see these flowers, I can touch them.   48 , I can smell the sweetness of them. As to the last one, that’s   49 .”
“Me? But you don’t know me,” said the young man.
“Yeah, it’s   50  that I don’t know you. But I know that flowers are angels that everybody   51 . We enjoy the happiness these flowers have brought us.”
The blind man’s work opened our eyes and   52  our heart, which also made his life   53 . It was just like Beethoven, who became deaf in his later life and wrote many great musical words. Beethoven himself couldn’t   54  his wonderful music, but his music has   55  millions of people to face their difficulties bravely. Isn’t it one kind of happiness?

My young daughter and I were flying to Miami for holiday. The plane was totally    36   . We couldn’t get seats together and were separated by the aisle. I asked two men if they would like to change 37   with us, so that we could be together. They 38    .

At the same time, a mother 39     three children also had the same problem as us. The mother 40     her baby, but her young son and his older brother were separated from her. She was very concerned about the boys sitting with 41  . She was very worried, but 42    helped her. Suddenly a man said, “I think we can help you.” Then he and his group managed to make enough space for the 43     .

My young daughter, however, was afraid of not being next to a window or her mom. I told her I couldn’t do anything; we had to sit 44    we were. Amazingly, the man sitting next to me turned to me and said he really liked the seat near the aisle, so we changed seats and continued our trip 45    .

Would that man give us his seat if the others hadn’t done so for the mom and her children? I don’t know. Perhaps kindness is contagious.
