The father told the boy to pull out one nail for each day and he was able to hold his temper. The days passed and the young boy was finally able to tell his father that all the nails were gone.The father took his son by the hand and led him to the fence. He said, "You have done well, my son, but look at the fence. It will never be the same. When you say things in anger, they leave a scar just like this one.

Some NailsBWhenever the sun dropped and the blue sky came up, my father and I used to climb the mountain near my house. Walking together, my father and I used to have a lot of conversations through which I learned lessons from his experiences. He always told me, "You should have goals like climbing the mountain." Without the mountain-climbing that we both enjoyed, we couldn't have enough time to spend together because my father was very busy. I really got a lot from mountain-climbing. It gave me time to talk with my father and to be in deep thought as well as develop my patience(耐力).Once we climbed a very high mountain. It was so challenging for me because I was only ten years old. During the first few hours of climbing, I enjoyed the flowers and trees, and the birds' singing, but as time passed, I got a pain in both of my legs. I wanted to quit climbing. In fact, I hated it at that mountain, but my father said to me, "You can always see a beautiful sky at the top of the mountain, but you can't see it before you reach the top. Only there at the top, can you see all of the nice things, just like in life."At that time, I was too young to understand his words. But later after that, I got new hope and confidence.

Egypt is very dry and hot. Most of it is covered with desert, so most of our people live near the Nile River.Kids go to primary school from ages 6-12. I learn cooking, sewing and embroidery(刺绣). Only half of the kids in primary school go to general school. (I hope to go there.) In the first two years we learn reading, writing and math.

The meanings of low carbon are low energy and no waste. It is such an important project that I can't wait to express my ideas about it more clearly.In the first place, we should have a no-car day every week in our school. Because cars not only cause serious air pollution but also waste energy. On no-car day, neither students nor teachers are allowed to drive to school. Meanwhile, just walk, jump, cycle or run. Use our legs and enjoy the fun.In the second place, we had better not use plastic bags any more. No one can bear the "white pollution". So, it is wise to use bags which can be reused again and again.Finally, one thing that we should keep in mind: every big thing comes from the subtle. Therefore, as students, we ought to turn off the lights the moment we leave, turn off the water tap in time, and reuse our textbooks and so on.In one word, it is necessary for all of us to put the low carbon lifestyle into our daily life. Just remember these: no-car day, no plastic bags, and no waste. Let's do it now.66. What's the meaning of the underlined word "subtle"?A. New things.B. Fashionable things.C. Important things.D. Small things.67. The article is probably written by .A. a reporterB. a citizenC. a studentD. a teacher68. Which of following is not enjoying a low carbon life?A.

But in another way, you find that without getting over those difficulties you would have never realized your ability, strength or will power(意志力).The people you meet and the success you get help to create who you are and who you become. Even the bad experiences can be learned from. In fact, they are sometimes the most important ones.If someone loves you, give love back to them in the way you can, not only because they love you, but because in a way, they are teaching you to love and how to open your heart and eyes to things.If someone hurts you, or breaks your heart, forgive(原谅) them, for they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being careful of people around.Self-confidence is necessary to a person. If you're not confident,it will be hard for others to believe in you.Learn a lesson in life each day you live!74. Who can influence your life in some ways?75. Are unpleasant things good for you?76.
