Long ago, an old king(国王)wanted to find a new king for his country. He had an idea. He 1 his people a challenge(挑战). The 2 king could do two things: catch one thousand 3 and find the most useful and important treasure(宝藏)in the country.
Many people thought that it was 4 to do the two things. But a young woman named Kate didn't stop. She came to the river. She saw fish5 in the river. Then something caught her eyes. Soon her basket was full of the things. She hurried(匆忙)to the king with the basket.
"6 is in your basket?" the king asked.
"They're eggs," Kate said. "Each egg will become(变成) a fish. So there are thousands of fish in my basket."
The king said yes with a smile. "You are very 7 . Now you need to find the most useful and important treasure in the country."
The next morning, Kate stood at the castle(城堡) door. This time, she 8 many people with her.
"I don't see any treasure," said the king. "That's because the people are the most useful and important treasure in the country. We will have our country if we have 9 ." Kate answered.

Joe Smith is 23 years old. He is a worker in our community service center. He often helps us out when something goes wrong with our computers. Joe also gives a hand to the old people. He drives them to see the doctor in his free time. He goes to their houses and talks to them after work.

Many people like to travel by plane, but I don't like it because an airport(机场)is usually far from the city. You have to get there early and wait(等待)for hours for the plane to take off and it is often late. You can't open the windows. The food isn't delicious. Planes are fast, but they still (仍然)take hours to get out of the airport and into the city.
I like traveling by train.Railway stations are usually in cities. When you are late for a train, you can catch another(另一)one. You can walk around in the train. You can see many beautiful things on your way. I know it takes a little more time.
I also like cars. You can start your trip when you want to, and you don't need to get to a railway station or a bus stop. Also you can carry many things with you in a car. But sometimes there are too many cars on the road.
