The only 【小题1】 (survive) of a shipwreck was washed up on a small island where no one lived. He prayed each day for his rescue, and after every prayer he stared at the horizon, 【小题2】(search) for help. But nobody seemed to be coming. Tired , he 【小题3】 (final)decided to build a small wooden hut to protect himself 【小题4】 the weather, and to store his few 【小题5】 ( value) possessions. But then one day, after hunting for food, he arrived home to find his little house on fire, the smoke rolling up to the sky. The worst had happened: everything was lost. He burst into tears and 【小题6】 (think) life had played a joke on him. Early the next day, however, he was awoken by the sound of something that was approaching the island. 【小题7】 ship had come to rescue him! The weary man was curious about how his rescuers had found him. “We saw your smoke signal,” they replied.

【小题8】 things are going bad, people can get discouraged. But we shouldn’t lose heart, because with a little bit of good luck, we can overcome even the worst misfortune the world throws our way. For all the bad things 【小题9】we might experience, life often provides us with optimistic 【小题10】 (solve).

This afternoon a man 【小题1】 (dress) in rags came into the shop. We all stared at him 【小题2】 (doubt) when he said he wanted a new coat. I took him downstairs and showed him a cheap coat 【小题3】 would cost him only 【小题4】 small amount of money. I thought he might be a bit upset about the price, but 【小题5】 the contrary he did not seem to care about it at all. I didn’t mean to be rude but I have no 【小题6】 (patient) with customers who can’t decide. So I persuaded him to buy it. Then the most 【小题7】 (believe) thing happened to me—he handed me a million pound bank note.I didn’t know whether it was genuine or not, so I 【小题8】 (seek) out my boss to ask his advice. He told me that I had indeed made a serious mistake by 【小题9】 (judge) this man by his clothes. My boss looked very angry and told me to find the 【小题10】 (good) coat for the man immediately. I have never seen him so kind to anybody else like that before. As for me, I felt terrible for the rest of the day!

I was walking into one of my favorite lunch spots today【小题1】a homeless man asked me if I would get him a sandwich.

I told him sure and asked what he would like. I went inside and ordered both of our 【小题2】 (lunch). He came in and【小题3】(sit) at a table while we waited. The woman behind the counter looked him funny, perhaps【小题4】(think) he shouldn’t be in there. I walked back over and talked with him so she knew he was【小题5】 paying customer.

He is a Native American from Flagstaff, about two hours away【小题6】 car. We had a nice conversation about some of the challenges he had faced as 【小题7】 as all of the events going on in the world these days.

It was nice【小题8】(see) him smile as he opened his sandwich and soda. He thanked me for my treat 【小题9】 (grateful). I smiled hoping this would make 【小题10】(he) day a little brighter today.
