My grandfather often said "I won't" to show his dislike of dishonesty（不诚实）. When he was young, he worked 1 a furniture（家具）maker. One day, a neighbor invited him to make some furniture. When arriving, he noticed the wood provided was a little 2 , so he said, "I won't start right away." He chose to let the wood dry for a month. He knew working with wet wood could cause 3 later on.

Around the same time, another furniture maker was also asked for a 4  job by a different family. Unlike my grandfather, he 5  working right away. As a result, the neighbor started doubting my grandfather, thinking he was trying to make more money by 6  the work. However, my grandfather waited 7 . He wanted the best quality for the furniture he was making.

A month later, the other furniture maker received his 8  and went back home. My grandfather began to 9  strong and beautiful furniture when the wood was completely dry. A few months passed and the furniture made by that maker began to break. The neighbor then regretted 10  my grandfather and said sorry to him. People came to understand his 11  and skill, spreading his fame far and wide.

Influenced by my grandfather, my father also follows the 12 of "I won't". He always provides the freshest food, which makes his restaurant very 13 in town. Once a trader wanted to sell some cheap but smelly seafood to my father, he said "No!" and stopped the 14 .

Now, my brother and I keep in mind 15 our grandfather and father taught us. Through ups and downs in life, we've come to deeply understand our family value behind this saying—to be truthful and honest.

It was the last day of the school year. The classroom was filled with excitement. When our teacher, Mr. Johnson, walked in, holding a CD player, everyone's face lit up with a smile. We knew that this wasn't going to be another normal day, but a special one.

"Please calm down and sit," said Mr. Johnson, "I'm glad everyone's here for the final reading test of the year." When everyone cried, Mr. Johnson laughed, saying it was just a joke. Then he reminded us that we still had a job to do. "You need to clean out your desks and put all your things into your backpacks." he added gently.

As we began our task, Mr. Johnson turned on the CD player. The lively music made the room feel like a party. Some of us started singing along with the music, others were dancing around their desks while they were cleaning them out. Even Mr. Johnson showed us a few dance steps, making everyone laugh heartily. After we finished cleaning, someone asked, "When is break time?" Mr. Johnson took out some balls and started playing with them. Suddenly, he let the balls drop and said, "Break time starts ... now!"

Just as we were about to rush out, our headmaster, Mrs. Miller, appeared at the door. "Mr. Johnson!" she cried out. A moment of silence fell over the room as we thought, "Mr. Johnson might be in trouble." However, to our surprise, Mrs. Miller couldn't help but laugh at the sight and left us to enjoy our break.

During break time Mr. Johnson surprised us with another treat. He went to the cafe and came back with ice creams for everyone. We all cheered for him!

As we walked back to the classroom, we passed Mrs. Miller's office. Someone joked, "Don't play with the ice creams, Mr. Johnson!" We all laughed together...

①Have you ever thought about what's more important, looking fashionable or feeling comfortable? You might have noticed many people choosing style over comfort and some even go to extremes（极端）to follow fashion. But we should remember: being fashionable isn't everything. It's more important to be healthy.

②Some people believe that they need to be a certain size to look good. So, they start extreme diets（日常饮食）that are not good for their health. They might not eat meals or eat too little, which can make them feel sick. Is it a healthy way to live?

③Also, many girls wear shoes with very high heels. They might think high heels make them look taller. But these shoes can actually hurt their feet and make it hard to walk comfortably, and it can increase risks of falls. Some even wear tight（紧的）clothes that influence blood circulation（循环）making it hard to breathe. Should we put fashion over comfort and physical health?

④Besides, some boys and girls spend a lot of time and money changing their hair color. The material they use is usually harmful to their health. To make their hair straight or curly, they also use tools that are hot enough to burn their hair. But using these tools too often or at very high temperatures can make the hair dry or even burnt. Is it really worth it to risk our health, spending so much time and money?

⑤So, let's rethink what's really important. Is it fashion or is it our well-being? Clothes or hairstyles don't tell us anything about a person's character. Instead of spending a lot of time choosing clothes, we could use that time to do fun things with friends. And instead of following extreme diets, let's eat properly and exercise regularly. Remember, your worth is not decided by your appearance, but by who you are as a person.

Plants are more than just pretty to look at. They give us fruits, vegetables and food we eat. Some plants even provide materials for medicine or building things. But do you know that plants can do something even more amazing? They can make our homes, schools and workplaces much healthier.

We spend a large part of our day indoors. Unluckily, the air inside buildings can often be full of chemicals（化学物质）from many things around us. This poor air quality（质量）can make us feel sick, causing sore eyes and throats, and even making it hard for us to breathe. When the air inside buildings gets really bad, people even call them "sick buildings".

The good news is that plants are like nature's little superheroes. They have a magic power fighting against bad air. Plants breathe in carbon dioxide (CO₂) and breathe out oxygen (O₂) which we humans need to live. They can also add moisture to the air if it's too dry, making it more comfortable for us to breathe.

____ Scientists have discovered that plants have the ability to take in harmful chemicals, making the air around us safer to breathe. They set up a completely closed building called "bio-home" for experiments. Before they added plants, the air inside was full of chemicals and people found it hard to breathe. But after they added plants, the air got much cleaner and it became easier to breathe. To make the air inside even better, the scientists used different kinds of plants. After a while, the building wasn't a "sick building" any more. People could go inside without feeling unwell.

So you see, plants are fantastic! They are not only beautiful to look at, but they also provide us with food, help create materials and play an important role in our health. They make our indoor environments cleaner and healthier, making us feel better. Next time you see a plant, remember all the amazing things it can do for us!

Last year, my friends and I went on a trip. We started early in the morning and traveled for several  on a bus. When we arrived, everyone was tired.

While we were getting off the bus, I noticed a young man, probably in his early twenties, standing very close to one of my friends. Suddenly, I realized that he was trying to my friend's wallet from her bag! I really nervous, but I knew I had to take action to stop him. Luckily, I saw two police officers standing and got an idea. So I fell over and cried out painfully. The police officers heard that and came over to help. When they were by my side, I told them what was . They caught the thief right away.

After that, we thanked the police officers and went on with our trip happily.

One day at school, something strange caught Ann's attention. Lily (quick) put a bag in her own desk, making Ann feel unusual. Later, she saw Lily secretly give something Cindy under the desk. It seemed that they decided (do) something without her. Ann thought, "How can my best friend plan something without inviting me?" Even though they were still (friend) to her, she was a little upset.

On the bus ride home, Ann avoided  (sit) next to Lily on purpose. She noticed Lily giving an envelope to someone else, which made her even more upset.

Later that evening, there was knock on Ann's door. There stood Cindy from next door, inviting her to Lily's party. first, Ann didn't want to go and said no to her, explaining that they were no (long) friends. But Cindy kept asking Ann to come along.

When they arrived at Lily's house, everyone shouted, "Surprise!" Ann hardly (believe) that. Lily smiled and said, "Tomorrow is your birthday!" Ann was moved that tears filled her eyes. She said thanks and hugged Lily.
