A proverb says, "Time is money". But in my opinion, time is even 1. precious than money. Why？ 2. when money is spent, we can earn it back. However, when time is 3.（go） , it will never return. 4. is known to all that the time we can use is limited. Therefore we should make 5.use of our time to study hard so as to serve our country in 6. future. But it is a pity that there are a lot of people 7. do not realize the value of time. They waste their precious time smoking, drinking and playing. In 8.word, we should form the good habit of 9. (save) time. Do not put off what can be done today 10. tomorrow.

Jack Evans quarreled with his neighbour，Ellen Brown. Mrs. Brown had a dog. Jack did not like dogs. He wanted Mrs. Brown to give away or sell her dog，but she refused.
“I'll take you to court if you don't，” he said.
Mrs. Brown laughed at him. She was not worried.
Jack thought，“I must talk to a lawyer, but lawyers are expensive. I don't want to waste my money. I will waste it if I don't win my case against Mrs. Brown and her dog.”
Then Jack had an idea. There was a young lawyer in the town. He did not have much work. Not many people knew about him. “I'll visit him，” Jack thought. “He needs work.” He visited the young lawyer in his office. “I need some advice，” he said.
“Certainly，” the young lawyer said. “What is your problem? I am here to help you.”
“Good. I want to take my neighbour to court. However, I will pay for your advice only if you think I will win the case in court.”
The lawyer was not pleased by this suggestion. However, he had very little work. Here was a chance to get some.
“All right，” he said. “I agree. I will listen to your problem. I will give you honest advice. You will pay me only if I think you can win in court.”
Jack told him about the problem. The lawyer listened carefully. Sometimes he made notes. When Jack finished, the lawyer sat back in his chair and said, “You will win your case. I have no doubt about it. May I take your case to court?”
Jack stood up and walked towards the door. “No, thank you,” he said. “I will not take it to court.”
“What about my fee?” the lawyer asked. “You have to keep your promise.”
“I am keeping my promise,” Jack said. “I will not win in court. You see, I did not tell you my case. I told you Mrs. Brown's.”

In the sea there are many islands. In its warm waters there are some little ones. We call them “Coral Islands”.
A coral island is very nice to look at. It looks like a ring of land with tress, grass, and flowers on it. One part of the ring is open to the water. There is a little round lake inside the island.
If you look into this lake, you will see beautiful coral. You may think they are flowers.
If you look at a piece of coral, you will see many little holes in it. In each of these holes a very small sea animal has lived . These sea animals make the coral.
They began to build under the water. Year after year, the coral grew higher and higher.
At last it grew out of the water.
Then the sea brought to it small trees and something else. After some years, these things changed into earth. Sometimes the wind brought seeds to this earth. Sometimes birds flew over it and brought seeds to the island.
The little seeds grew. In a few years there were plants all over the island. In a few more years there were trees growing there.
So you see, these islands were built little by little. The workers were very small. Do they not teach us a lesson? Can you think what the lesson is?
