Anthony is 80 years old. He lives by himself in his own home. He spends most of his time in front of the TV      his favorite programs like, football, baseball, and car racing. I’ve        him for about six years and his     breaks my heart. Anthony reminds me of my own grandfather.
Anthonhy is from the isalnd of Malta, a small island in the Mediterranean Sea. He came to the United States, like       of us, to look for a better future for his family. He       eight kids and they live in the United states but     of them live near him in Florida and nor do they visit him. I     him once a day to check on him and spend some     time with him.
I even watch TV with him that I don’t even      , but the       is that he feels someone is there       him company. When he gets sick, or does not feel     enough to cook, I will cross my fence and start      for him.         I will run some errands (跑腿) for him. When he has an appointment with his     _   , I will drive him too. I’ll fix his remote control when it is not       , etc…If something breaks or stops working, he calls me because he knows he can       me anytime.
It is important to care about someone,       it isn’t your own family. You would be      of yourself when you do help someone. I am pretty sure there are many Anthonys out there facing the same loneliness. Please       a difference in someone’s life.

Some years ago when I was in my first year in college, I heard Salome Bey sing for the first time. The moment was exciting. Salome’s       filled the room and brought the theater to life. I was so       that I decided to write an article about her.
I       Salome Bey, telling her I was from Essence magazine, and that I wanted to meet her to talk about her career .She       and told me to come to her Studio next Tuesday. When I hung up, I was scared out of mind. I       I was lying. I was not a writer at all and hadn’t even written a grocery list.
I interviewed Salome Bey the next Tuesday. I sat there      , taking notes and asking questions that all began with, “Can you tell me…?” I soon realized that       Salome Bey was one thing, but writing a story for a national magazine was just impossible. The       was almost unbearable. I struggled for days       draft(草稿)after draft. Finally I put my manuscript(手稿)into a large envelope and dropped it into a mailbox.
It didn’t take long. My manuscript      . How stupid of me! I thought. How could I      
in a world of professional writers? Knowing I couldn’t       the rejection letter, I threw the unopened envelope into a drawer.
Five years later, I was moving to California. While       my apartment, I came across the unopened envelope. This time I opened it and read the editor’s letter in      :
Ms Profit,
Your story on Salome Bey is fantastic. Yet we need some       materials. Please add those and return the article immediately. We would like to       your story soon.
Shocked, it took me a long time to      . Fear of rejection cost me greatly. I lost at least five hundred dollars and the chance of having my article appear in a major magazine. More importantly, I lost years of       writing. Today, I have become a full-time writer. Looking back on this      , I learned a very important lesson: You can’t       to doubt yourself.

But when it came to     of their problems, things got a little strange. They all claimed to have headaches, but the headaches weren’t       by the normal body language of holding the head or trying to keep it still.
Something was wrong. Our hospital policy,       , was not to turn away any patient. I explained it might be a little while       a doctor saw her. She responded immediately, even a bit       “Take your time,” and then added, “It’s warm in here.”
Then, I checked their registration form out of curiosity. No address—they were      .The waiting room was warm. I went back to the nurses’ station and mentioned we had a homeless      in the waiting room. The nurses, complaining of       on Christmas, turned to sympathy for a family just trying to get       on Christmas. The team went into action, much as we do when there’s a       emergency.

I was fat kid who grew into an overweight adult. I was      laughed at for being heavier than the other kids,      me feeling shy. I tried several diets, but      worked, and I     gaining weight. Another factor        my weight gain was my love for cooking, especially rich, high-fat desserts, which I enjoyed preparing and, of course, eating.   
 When I finished high school at the age of 18, I weighed 215 pounds.       the self-confidence to go to a new, faraway school, I decided to stay close to home      going away to college. I continued with my unhealthful eating habits and felt more miserable as the weight came on, but I did nothing about it except buy larger plus-size clothes.   
My turning point came 10 years later at a friend's New Year's Eve party when I was at my all-time highest weight of 330 pounds. I caught my       in a mirror and the truth      me: I was overweight and unhealthy, and unless I did something about it now, I would only get bigger and       .   
After leaving the party, I thought about my past weight-loss     and realized they didn't work because they required me to abandon foods I loved. Then I would constantly think about food and binge,       the diet      my hunger and not feel deprived.   
 My biggest       was finding a way to fit my passion for cooking into my healthier lifestyle. At first, I tried to stay away from the kitchen to         myself thinking about food. The result: Food was all I thought about.       had to be some way to combine cooking with healthful eating. I found the     after reading several low-fat cookbooks. With some trial and error, I could modify my favorite foods and make them low in fat, yet delicious.  
 The pounds started coming off, and when I started exercising (usually cardio and weight training five times a week), they seemed to melt away. I didn't feel deprived, and I felt free to give my body the care and attention it     .  
I lost 165 pounds over the next two years. I had many ups and downs. I was determined to go on. Another challenge to me was not to beat myself up if I ate something that was unhealthy and to take it as a sign to abandon my healthful habits.      I vowed to start again and always keep my goal in mind.  Thanks to losing weight and becoming fit I am         my body and myself. I have finally found myself.

Although the Garden God had made him the most beautiful place that there could ever be, Adam was lonely.
Adam needed some   . So God reached into the ground again and took some more stuff from the earth. This time he made every kind of animal and every kind of bird. He brought them all to Adam to see   he would call them. It must have   a long, long time to think up all those   ! Luckily, he didn't call them things like 'Foo Foo' or “Snuggems”or 'Pooky' or anything like that.     , he called them 'gerbils' and 'rabbits' and 'rhinoceroses'. And he   the birds 'eagles' and 'egrets' and 'ruby throated warblers'.
Well,     , we don't know what Adam named them,     he didn't speak English. But he named each kind, and that's important because people are the only ones that name things. Your   knows what a squirrel is, but he doesn't call   a squirrel. He just barks   it! But naming things is one of the things that shows we are   from all the other creatures that God made.    
    even with all the animals around to keep him company, God saw that Adam was    sad. Monkeys are fun to play with, but they don't have very much to say and they have   table manners. So God made Adam fall   , and while Adam was sleeping, God took one of his ribs(肋骨).God took Adam's   and he made a woman from it. When Adam woke up, God   Eve to him , and Adam said, “At last! Here is   like me! Her bones were made from my bones, and her body was made from my body. I will call her 'woman' because that means she was taken out of man.”
At last Adam was   . And so Adam and Eve lived together in God's garden.
