In the summer between my first year and second year in college，I was invited to be an instructor （辅导员）at a high school camp．On the first day，when we were dancing and playing games，I noticed a boy under the tree who was small and thin．His shyness made him appear weak．I walked towards him，introduced myself and invited him to join in the activities and meet some new people．He quietly replied，"No，I really don't want to do this．"I could understand that he was in a new world but I knew it wouldn't be right to force him，either．Actually，the boy didn't need a close talk but a friend．
At lunch the next day，I was leading camp songs when 1saw the boy under the tree sitting alone．I tried again with the same invitation，but he refused once again．That evening I was told the boy's name was Tommy．Then I asked the campers to pay special attention to the boy and spend time with him when they could．
The days went by and the time came when we had to leave．We held a big，warm party to celebrate the closing of the camp．All the campers shared their wonderful moments．To my surprise.1found the boy from under the tree dancing joyfully with two girls．I couldn't believe it was the same person．
In October of my second year，I received a phone call from Tommy's mother．She told me that Tommy was hit by a car and killed．I offered my deep sadness．The mother said："'Tommy mentioned you so many times．I want you to know that he went back to school and made new friends with confidence．You made a difference for Tommy during his last months．"
At that moment，I realized how easy it was to give a bit of yourself every day．You may never know how much each gesture may mean to someone else．I hope that everyone can pay attention to their own"boy under the tree"．

On February 22， 2018，Wu won the men's 500m short track speed skating with a time of 39.584 seconds and became the first Chinese man to win an Olympic short track gold． "（3） I'm happy to win China's first gold here and I look forward to the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics ，"Wu said． （4）

Claude Monet's paintings were quite different from the art styles that were popular in the 1870s France． Traditional artists always did their artwork in a studio and their paintings were realistic﹣they looked exactly like the real world． Claude Monet was part of a group of painters who were called Impressionists（印象派画家）． Their paintings were light and a bit fuzzy﹣they gave an impression of what the real world looked like． Sometimes Impressionists worked outside， which was a very unusual thought in their time． Impressionism received its name from an early painting by Claude Monet titled impression， Sunrise．
Knowing that trains were interesting subjects and represented modern progress， Claude Monet created a series of Impressionist paintings of trains from January to March of 1877． He worked on his paintings right on the train platform at the Gare Saint﹣Lazare， the train station on Saint Lazare Street． Although there were many train stations in Paris， this was the first train station built in Paris so it had historical significance（意义）．
Monet's friend， Impressionist painter Pierre Auguste Renoir， told the following story to his sons about Claude Monet and painting the trains． Monet needed permission（允许）to spend time on the train platform and paint what he saw in his impressionistic style． One day Monet dressed himself in his very best suit along with a fine top hat， a good linen shirt and a silk tie． He appeared to be a wealthy gentleman while he really was a poor painter．
When he went towards the clerk at the train office， he presented his calling card which introduced him as Claude Monet， Painter． He asked to see the station master． The clerk quickly allowed this fine gentleman to enter the station master's office． The station master was also impressed and gave Monet permission to paint on the train platform． The station master even kept trains from leaving on time so Monet could compete a scene even though passengers complained．
Was it all worthwhile（值得）？ Monet's train scenes turned his career into a success and for the station master， made his train station famous until even now．

My brother Claudio is one of the people I love most． He is wise and always helpful， taking care of me and（1） （we） young sister， Sarah．The day when he left home to go to college，I（2） （teach） the importance of being a man．
It was a（3） （rain） Saturday morning in August． We were woken up by the sound of Sarah playing the piano as usual． In the kitchen， there was（4） surprise for Claudio-his favorite pancakes．Mom gave us a big smile and told us（5） （sit） down for the breakfast． This was an important day for all of us!

So， does Beth enjoy（9） （be） famous now？"I didn't plan to be famous，"she says．All I want is to show others what I love．I don't think I'm someone special．I just want everyone（10） （have） a great time at my concerts．
Mark Quinn is trying to make the world happy ﹣ one person at a time． He hit upon the idea after studying how a person's happiness could be（1） （影响） by social media （媒体）． Instead of just thinking about his own happiness， he wondered if there was a （2） （秘密的） way to make people around the world happy．
Quinn turned to something he（3） （他自己） loves．"All my life I've been taking photos，" he says， "and for the past（4） （七） years，I've spent a lot of time making scrapbooks（剪贴簿） filled with photos， （5） （明信片）， tickets .. It gives me such joy to look back on these． I just thought ﹣ maybe I could create an online scrapbook that everyone could（6） （分享） in． "
From his idea came the book The Happiness Scrapbook． Quinn travelled in America taking pictures and asking people the （7） （相同的） question： what makes you happy？ "I've got． photos and answers from strangers， friends， family， as well as others who （8） （清楚地） have something to say，" he says．

Then one day， while going out， （3） a walk，Mr. Happy met Miss Beautiful．Mr. Happy smiled as usual and Miss Beautiful smiled back．But then she stopped and looked at Mr. Happy（4） （angry）．
"How rude!" she shouted．"Young man， don't you know that you should raise your hat （5） you meet a lady!"
For（6） first time in his life， Mr. Happy lost his smile．"I'm sorry，" Miss Beautiful． replied Mr. Happy，"But without （7） （I）hat on， I'm not very good﹣looking and that makes me sad．"
"Really？" asked Miss Beautiful．"Well， let me see． I promise（8） （keep） the secret．
Mr. Happy（9） （lift） his hat． He had the total of only three hairs on his head!
"Is that all you're worried about？" asked Miss Beautiful．" Why？Your bright sunny smile（10） （love） by everybody， not how many hairs you have!" Miss Beautiful smiled．

Last October， I went to a yard sale that was a little bit different．A lady had many nice things to sell．
（3） Through the communication， I knew she was jobless at the moment and needed money to feed her family． I thought I could do it better and more quickly for her． So I made up my mind to help her out． She looked at me for a while and then said yes．（4） When I gave her the money，she broke down into tears thankfully．

Dear Linda，
（1）
As I told you yesterday， I am in Rome today． Tomorrow we are getting the train down into the south of the country and then a ship across to Greece．
（2）
We started in England and we spent two days in London and another day in Canterbury．We visited a lot of great history and the only bad thing was the weather﹣it rained the whole time we were there． Can you believe it？
（3）
Well， I have to say I prefer the American Disneyland． But we we met some nice people from Canada and spent two great days with them．One of them，Clive，is going to your university next year．How's that for a coincidence（巧合）!
（4）
After that，we went south into Switzerland． It was very expensive and we couldn't stay as long as we wanted to，so that's why we're in Italy now!
（5）
See you soon．
Mike
