Tomorrow will be another day
On my way home from work every evening,
there would be a homeless middle-aged man standing
by the walkway. He was always
26
smiling, and sometimes almost dancing.
Every day after work I would remember
to gather any spare
27
,and put it aside. If l saw
him I'd
give him the coins. A feeling
of
28
would come over me every time I saw him
as he looked to
feel joyful. Sometimes
we would ask each other about our day. His
29
would be the same,
fine.
Have a bright day.
I knew what his reply
was going to be every time,
30
I would still ask. It
31
me of how
lucky me that even in his situation of
being homeless, he was so cheerful. He
32
me how lucky
I
was, a single mother of four kids,
with a good job to provide for them.
Then
one
day
I
was
called
into
my
boss's
office
and
was
told
that
I
was
due
to
the
33
weak
economy
(
经济
). A feeling of worry
filled my mind immediately, and for the rest of
that day all I
could think about was
34
my family, and how am I going to pay
rent?”
That day I was very
sad and upset on my way home. I
35
forgot to
prepare some coins for the
homeless man
as usual. As I waited for the red light to turn,
he walked over with a big smile and
asked,
everything
going?
I told him
I
lost my job
and
felt really bad.
“OK,
I will
36
you a dollar today. Tomorrow will be
another day,
I was deeply 37
and burst into tears. I wanted to hug
him! That day what the man handed me was
more than a dollar bill. He taught me a
38 lesson. Whatever material things are taken from
you, no
one can take away your
38
to be joyful. Tomorrow will be a bright
39 day and full of 40.

How to survive in the jungle
When you're in the jungle
(
丛林
),you need to leave all
your mobile phone, your favorite coffee
and your chocolate bars at home. When
you're in the jungle, you need only four things-
water, food,
shelter, and fire. You can
find all of these easily, but you must know what
to look for.
Let's start with water.
Even though there's a lot of water in the jungle,
you may not find it Insects
can also be
a good sign, because they usually build their
nests near water. However, don't only look
for rivers. You can also find water in
some plants such as roots and palm trees.
You can usually find a lot of food in
the jungle, but you must be happy to eat things
you wouldn't
normally want to, for
example, insects. However, you need to know the
difference between those
you can eat
and those that are poisonous, so start reading
about them now!
For
cooking
and
for
warmth,
collect
dry
firewood,
leaves,
and
grass.
Then
make
fire
using
dry
sticks-take a box of
matches or a lighter with you!
The type
of shelter you need depends on the weather and the
kind of animals in the jungle.
Some
insects can be very dangerous, so protect yourself
against bites .If you don't have any insect
repellent(
驱虫剂
)
，
try putting mud on your skin.
Of course, if you're lost in the jungle
and want to get home again, the sun and stars can
help you
find your way.
