Sometime in the future, the familiar early-morning newspaper on the front

and entertainment systems, computer__6__would unite print and
broadcast reporting, offering news and analysis with video images of news
events.
Most of the__7__is available now, but convincing more people that they

1、
I will always remember my mother’s last few days in this world. On
February 14th, 2000, my class went on a field trip to the beach. I had so
much fun. When we returned to school, my teacher told me to go to the
headmaster’s office. When I got into the office, I saw a police officer.
Suddenly I realized something was wrong. The police officer told me what
had happened and we went to pick my sister up. After that, we went to the
hospital and waited. Time went slowly. Finally, we got to see our mother.
It was terrible. On the next day, the headmaster came and told my two
teachers what had happened. I was taking a rest that day. I knew it had
something to do with my mother. I kept thinking that she either died or
had gotten better. How I wished that she had gotten better. When my
teacher took me outside, my sister ran up to me. She started crying,
“She’s gone. Teresa, mommy’s gone. She’s dead.” I couldn’t believe it. We
jumped into the car and drove straight to the hospital. Most of my family
were there. The silence was terrible. I knew I had to say goodbye.
Today when I look back, I still miss my mother very much, but I know that
I will live. My mother was a strong mother, who had the biggest heart. My
mother was an angel walking on the earth. I will always remember her as
living. When someone is asked who their hero (英雄) is, they usually say
someone famous, like Michael Jordan or Britney Spears. When someone asks
me who my hero is, I tell them, my mother. My mother lives every day. That
is what makes her a true hero.

Mr Mike was a young man. He was not very rich. One day he went into
a watch shop to buy a nice-looking watch for his girl friend, Rose. He
fixed his eyes on a nice golden watch, and decided to buy it. The shop
assistant took the watch out, and asked for three hundred pounds for it.
Just then, a boy of about fifteen suddenly rushed over and grasped the
watch from the assistant'''';s hand. The assistant hurried out to catch
the boy. But it was too late, the boy had disappeared among the street
people very quickly.
On the way home, Mike met the boy, who would sell him the gold watch
for only one hundred pounds. "The boy didn'''';t know that I saw him
stealing the watch from the shop. And he asked for much less money than
that in the shop." Mike thought to himself. So he paid the boy and took
the watch home.
