I was walking down the road one day when my cell phone rang.   36   voice on the other end spoke to me, “Dad, please come back soon. I miss you so much!” I thought that it was a wrong number. A short while later, the call came once again, so I   37   rudely, “You’ve dialed the wrong number!” and then hung up.

During the    38    days, I often got the    39   call. But I didn’t care much about it.

    Then one day she kept calling me,    40    I didn’t answer. Finally I answered the phone and heard a weak voice, “Dad, please come back. I miss you so much! Dad, I’m in so much    41   ! Mom said you were too busy to take care of me. But, dad, please    42    me again, OK?” It was     43    to refuse the innocent(天真的, 無(wú)邪的) ask. I made a    44    kiss on the phone and heard the weak voice say, “Thank you…Dad, I am so…h(huán)appy, so…h(huán)appy…”

    Shortly after this, I became curious(好奇）about    45    had been on the other end of my phone. So I called back, and a woman answered, “Sorry, sir. I am really sorry to have    46    you. My daughter has had bone cancer since she was born. And her father…died in a car    47    two weeks ago. I didn’t want to tell her the news. Poor baby. When she couldn’t    48    the painful chemotherapy(化療), she would cry for her dad because her dad always    49    her. I really don’t know what to do, so I gave her a random(隨意的) phone number…”

    “How is your daughter now?” I couldn’t wait to ask.

“She has died. You   50    have kissed her on the phone, because she died with a smile, tightly holding the cell phone…”   Tears full of my eyes….

Mr. White is a farmer. Last month he 36 his truck to town and on the way his truck knocked down a  37  and hurt him. He sent the boy to a  38 at once. He paid a lot of money for that, but the boy’s  39 wanted to get more money from him. So they said their son could no longer lift his 40 arm above his head.

Mr. White’s lawyer(律師) came and asked the boy a few questions in the court(法庭). “Now, my boy,” he said, “you were hurt 41 , weren’t you?” “Yes, sir,” said the boy. “And you can’t lift your right arm now, can you?” “42 , sir.”

“Could you 43  us how you can lift your right arm?” Slowly the boy lifted his right arm before his nose. “Poor boy,” said the lawyer. “And how 44  could you lift it before the accident?” “Oh, very high,” said the boy proudly (自豪) and the arm went up right over his 45 .

The world is divided into two parts. One half of the world is rich and   26  is poor. In the poor part, a lot of people have  27 got enough to eat. When they are ill, none of the   28 can receive them because they have no money. In the rich   29 , people eat very well,   30 a dog or a cat in North America eats   31 than a child in poorer countries.
The poor countries have some difficult problems. Sometimes the land is too poor to grow  32 on. People there have   33 rich land nor enough water. The land   34 be made better, but a lot of things must be done. The people must be taught and water must   35 .
But rich countries have problems, too. There are not always good places to   36 . Sometimes the air is not clean and the rivers are too   37 to swim in or to drink. The roads and streets are full of people and cars. Cars and buses have to move   38 . Noise is too much. Some people have no houses to live in. Something must be done about these problems. The air and the rivers must be cleaned and be   39 clean. More houses have to be built.   40 these things cannot be done easily.
