It’s important for everyone to have a good neighbour. In China, there is a saying that a distant relative is not as good as a near neighbor(远亲不如近邻). I agree with it   1   from my experience (经历), I think it’s  2  for each one to have a good neighbor.
First, a good neighbour is a good friend. One winter day when our family moved to a new house, our neighborhood helped us to   3  some furniture(家具) and told us something   4  this neighbourhood. They invited all members of  5  family to their home and have a hot drink. They made us   6  comfortable here.
Next, a good neighbor is a good relative(亲戚).When we travel, our neighbors    7  take care of our house and keep the letters for us. When they    8 , we also help them as they do. In the new neighborhood, we always    9  each other. We are just like good relatives.
Finally, I get a very important   10  from our neighbours that having a good neighbour is being a good neighbor yourself.

The females stay together for fifty, sixty or a hundred years.The older animals   10 the young ones. The mothers teach their daughters and set a good example.And   11  happens to male elephant? Well, the young males stay with their mothers for a time. Then they must   12 the family. The females just send them away.

People of Burlington are being disturbed by the sound of bells. Four students from Burlington College of Higher Education are in the bell tower of the church and have made up their minds to    15   the bells nonstop for two weeks as a protest（抗议） against heavy trucks which run    16   through the narrow High Street.“They not only make it    17   to sleep at night, but they are doing damage（损害） to our houses and shops of historical   18  ,”

said John Norris, one of the protesters.

“ 19  we must have these noisy trucks on the roads,” said Jean Lacey, a biology student, “why don’t they build a new road that goes round the town? Burlington isn’t much more than a  20    village. Its streets were never meant for heavy traffic”.

　　Harry Fields also studying    21    said they wanted to make as much noise as possible to force the government officials to realize what everybody was having to stand. “Most of them don’t live here anyway,” he said, “they come in for meetings and the Town Hall is soundproof（隔音的）, so they probably don’t    22   . It’s high time they realized the problem.” The fourth student, Liza Vernum, said she thought the public were mostly on their side, and even if they weren’t they soon would be.

　　I asked if they were    23    that the police might come to stop them.

　　“Not really,” she said, “actually we are suitable bellringers. I mean we are assistant bellringers for the church. There is no    24    against practising.”

I left the church with the sound of the bells ringing in my ears.
