I hope it fits you well.” He put the note in a pocket of the coat, and covered the old man with the coat. Then he went to work. When he came back three hours later, both the man and the coat were gone. Sam thought that it was the best thing he could have done with his fathers coat.That afternoon, Sam hurried home after school because Julie was at home alone. However, Julie and the old man were standing in front of the house, and Julie shouted to Sam, “Brother!

The invention of paper meant that more people could be educated because more books could be printed. Paper provided an important way to communicate with knowledge.Paper was first made in China about 2,000 years ago. In Egypt and the West, paper was not very commonly used before the year 1400. Paper was not made in southern Europe until about the year 1100. After that, the forest countries of Canada, Sweden, Norway, Finland, and the United States became the most important in paper-making. Today Finland makes the best paper in the world.When we think of paper, we think of newspapers, books, letters, envelopes, and writing paper. So paper plays an important role in our lives.Paper is very good for keeping you warm. Houses are often insulated with paper. You have perhaps seen homeless men sleep on a large number of newspapers. They are insulating themselves from the cold. In Finland, in winter it is sometimes 40 degrees below zero. The farmers wear paper boots in the snow. Nothing could be warmer.41 .

The man and his son were busy with their work; and after saying, Good day, we began to talk together.Before I had been with them long, the old man sent his son out to get something that he needed for his repair. His son was only one kilometre away, but it was too long for the h51 . shoe-maker to be free. He at last took up a piece of leather and began to work on it, saying, You know, sir, it will never do to waste time.As soon as the rain was over, I went on my way home, thinking over what I had heard, It will never do to waste time. Some people are always lazy, others are lazy only now and then. I was one of the second ones. I couldnt f 52 . my attention all the time. So the old mans words came home with me and I began to feel how w53 . it was to waste so much of my life in laziness.I had often heard and read that laziness was great h 54 . ; but now I begin to see that it causes far more disadvantages than people are aware of. They dont know the wasted time never goes back.When a man is busy, he is said to be occupied. What does that mean? It means that a man at work is like a house with people living in it. When our minds are full of our work, there is no s55 . for anything else. Laziness, on the other hand, is emptiness; and when the mind is empty, then the doors are thrown open, and bad thoughts come in to influence your pure heart. When it once gets hold of a man, the habit of laziness isnt e56 . got rid of.I have made up my mind to follow the shoe-makers rule for the rest of my life. Although it was very hard at first, I stick to it because I learn to r57 . myself not to waste time. Above all, I decide that my mind should never be empty.六、填空As young students, you have many dreams. These dreams can be very big, such as winning the Nobel Prize; they can also be small, such as becoming one of the best students in your class.Once you find a dream, what do you do with it? Do you ever try to realize(实现) your dream?Andrew Matthews, an Australian writer, tells us that making your dreams come true is lifes biggest challenge(挑战). You may think youre not very good at some school subjects, or that its impossible for you to become a writer. Those kinds of ideas stop you from realizing your dream.In fact, everyone can realize his dream. The first thing you must do is to remember what your dream is. Dont let it leave your heart. You need to keep telling yourself what you want every day and then your dream will come true faster. You must also never give up your dream. There will be difficulties on the road to your dreams. But the biggest difficulty comes from yourself. You need to decide what is the most important. Studying instead of watching TV will help you to get better exam results, while saving five yuan instead of buying an ice cream means you can buy a new book.As you get closer to your dream, it may change a little. This is good as you have the chance to learn something more useful and find new hobbies.Many students have different dreams. They can be very big or 58 . .What do you do with your dream?Sometimes you may think its difficult for you to make your dream come true. These ideas can 59 . you from realizing your dream.How to realize your dream?The first thing is that you should not 60 . what your dream is. And 61 . telling yourself every day helps make your dream come true faster.Never give up your dream.
