Things of Value
Our area was just a few miles from the largest wildfire in Colorado’s history. We were on “evacuation alert (疏散警报)”. If we got the
36
to evacuate, we would have to leave immediately.
We
37
suitcases with some clothes and set them by the door. We didn’t
38
these things were valuable, but time was. We moved the computers, with which I wrote for newspapers and made a
39
. We took family pictures off the
40
and packed them in boxes. These were truly valuable and could not be replaced.
Then we took a hard look at all that
41
. There was a lamp that belonged to my great grandmother. It was a
42
to my family. And there was the piano my wife
43
to play when she was a little girl. Not of great
44
in itself, but another family connection. It was impractical to move everything from our home and store them for an indefinite (无限的) time. Some important items would have to stay behind.
The thought of
45
something passed down from our families saddened me deeply,
46
I’d never been much attached to things. It’s about what they
47
—family and love. They each had a(n)
48
to tell, and some of them spoke in the
49
of our parents and grandparents.
The fire
50
reached our home. We were lucky. And though I felt grateful that all was
51
, I also realized just how fortunate I had been
52
. I saw just how rich my life had been.
Someone
53
said, “There are people so poor that the only thing they have is money.” And now I
54
I was indeed rich. I was rich in family, rich in memories, rich in everything that really
55
to me. I am wealthier than I ever believed possible.
It took a fire to teach me, I wonder if there is any other kind of wealth worth seeking.

As high school students, what should we do?
We should focus our attention on details around ourselves. We should form the habit of saving water, especially when we brush our teeth and wash hands, and never leave water running unnecessarily. Meanwhile, we ought to save electricity. Whenever we leave classrooms or our homes, make sure that the light and some electrical equipment have been turned off,. Never keep the light on in the daytime if unnecessary. We should also save every piece of paper as well as other materials. What’s more, we should offer to remind our relatives and friends as well as our parents to save energy.
Dear fellow students, let’s spare no effort to take action.

【答案解析】
One possible version
Dear Peter,
I remember you told me you were interested in teaching in China. Our school now is looking for a native-speaker to teach some courses to senior high students. If you come, you can choose three of the following four courses: Speaking, Writing, Britain Today and America Today, and teach 12 hours a week. The students who are going to take these courses have at least three years of English learning experiences. Besides teaching, you will also work as an advisor to our students’ English club or our school’s English newspaper.
Please let me know if you are interested and if you have any other questions. I’d be more than happy to help.
Best,
Li Hua
