A cancer-stricken British teenage girl said Thursday she had been moved by messages of support from around the world after writing an online "Bucket List" of things she wanted to do before dying.
Alice Pyne, l5, created an Internet blog in which she described her fight against a cancer of the white blood cells. “I’ve been fighting cancer for almost four years and now l know that the cancer is gaining on me and it doesn't look like I'm going to win this one," she wrote.
For her list, the teenager took inspiration from the 2007 film “The Bucket List”, in which two terminally ill(患绝症的) men, played by Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson, draw up a list of things they wish to do before they die.
On her list, at the site www.alicepyne.blogspot.com, she has included making everyone sign up to be a bone marrow donor(骨髓捐赠者), swimming with sharks, meeting boy band Take That and getting a purple iPad computer.
Messages of support and offers of help quickly flooded her webpage and it became one of the most talked about subjects on Twitter.
"Oh dear and I thought that I was just doing a little blog for a few friends!" she wrote after her site attracted huge attention. "Thank you so much for all your lovely messages to me."
Pyne, who lives with her family in the northwest English town of Ulverston, revealed (透露) the management of Take That had arranged for her to see the band after reading her blog. A group of local lawmakers have also joined forces with the Anthony Nolan blood cancer charity to encourage people to join its stem cell register.

Dear Cary,
I’m writing because I’ve understood you’ve struggled with alcoholism(酗酒)．I’ve been fighting mine ever since I went through 9-11．After that，I’ve been more or less useless professionally –I’m a lawyer–and have had to resign from my job because I was discovered passed-out drunk in front of my computer. I’ve taken some medicine and it has helped somewhat. I can manage about a month without drinking，but after that I end up having a crazy stage where nothing matters except drinking．After a week or so of heavy drinking，I start having nightmares of people jumping. After that，it’s a week of not being able to get out of bed.
I was supposed to travel to a conference but didn’t make it because I got so drunk at the airport that I fell down on my face and spent the rest of the day in the emergency room. I have been hiding from my family since then．Fortunately they won’t be expecting me to come back for a week or so. Otherwise, they would notice the bump on my forehead and two black eyes．
I don’t really know what I’m asking you．Cary, I need a way out that doesn’t involve causing pain to my family．I’m taking medicine，but I still have these attacks every few months．If there’s alcohol in the house，I can’t stay away from it．It seems that this will never end. I’m afraid of what will happen if something bad happens，like a family member dying, or getting fired again．
Thanks for reading．
Yours T

When Sally Ride was ten years old, she had no idea that she would some day grow up to be one of America’s first woman astronauts. In fact, if you had asked her then what wanted to be, she would have said, “ I want to play shortstop for the Los Angeles Dodgers.” Sally collected baseball cards by the boxful, and she knew the name and batting average (击球率)of every player in the National League.
But major league baseball didn’t seem much of a possibility for a girl, even an athletic one like Sally, so her father and mother talked her into taking tennis lessons when she was twelve. At first she hated to trade in her baseball bat for a tennis racket, but it wasn’t long before she started to win tournaments in her new sport. “ Tennis became much more fun when I started winning,” Sally remembers. Soon a row of trophies （奖牌）replaced her box of baseball cards, and tennis star Billie Jean King replaced Dodger shortstop Maury Wills as her sports idol.
Sally first became interested in the space program in 1962 when astronaut John Glenn orbited the earth in his Mercury space capsule. Sally was ten years old at the time, but she remembers the launch and the splashdown (掉落) as if they happened yesterday. The girl who used to memorize batting averages became a space fan. She quickly learned the name of every NASA astronaut(there were only eight of them in 1962), the date of every launch, and the name and number of every spacecraft from Freedom 7 to Skylab 3. She could tell you the speed of light (186,300 miles per second), the distance to the moon (238,860 miles), and the names of the three nearest stars( the Sun, Alpha Centauri, and Barnard’s Star).
By the time she was sixteen, Sally had decided to become an astrophysicist, a scientist who studies space. She had also become a nationally ranked tennis player. She remembers yawning（打哈欠） through an important tennis match on June 20, 1969, after staying up all night to watch Neil Armstrong’s first steps on the moon. Sally lost the match.
As Sally got older, many of her friends started playing professional tennis. Some of them tried to talk her into quitting school to join them on the professional tennis circuit. But Sally said no. “ Black holes are more interesting to me than backhands,” she told them. Now she knows that she made the right choice, but in 1970 Sally had no way of knowing that NASA would open the space program to women.
小题1:At the age of twelve, Sally Ride ________.

A．was interested in playing tennis

B．was persuaded into taking tennis training

C．began to become interested in space

D．decided to become an astrophysicist

小题2:Sally Ride lost the match on June, 1969 just because________.

A．she was tired

B．she couldn’t decide whether to be an astrophysicist

C．she couldn’t decide whether to take part in a professional tennis circuit

D．she wasn’t interested in tennis

小题3:From the story we know that Sally ________.

A．had been a professional baseball player

B．had never been a professional player

C．had never been a woman astrophysicist

D．wasn’t interested in space program

小题4:A capsule is ________.

A．the name of the neareast star

B．a place where the American astronauts and the crew work

C．a place where astronauts and the crew are trained

D．a container of the crew and astronauts detached(分离) from a rocket

小题5:Which of the following is True according to the passage?

A．According to the story, Sally Ride is a woman astrophysicist.

B．The ambition of becoming a woman astronaut was made in Sally’s childhood.

C．Freedom 7 and Skylab 3 are the names of the nearest stars.

D．Sally didn’t quit her schooling at the time as she knew sooner or later NASA would hire woman astronaut.

I’d been 16 for six days and was already prepared to deal with failure.
I remember that, when my mum          me that morning, her voice wasn’t as screaming as it usually was. She had been          for more than one hour getting everything ready, and I could feel she was         me at the same time.
I stayed in bed for a few minutes. I was          to leave its warmth and          to face the suffering that I’d rather let myself forget for the past months. Finally, I dragged myself         .
The first thing I thought of after getting up was to         . I went to the kitchen and prepared a breakfast that was fairly         , but was still too big for my appetite that day. I kept telling myself that I          eat. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and this wasn’t a(n)          day. Besides maybe it would          me a little. But I doubted it. I left the kitchen because even the          made me feel sick.
I finished getting ready and tried to settle down. It didn’t         , so I decided that my mum and I should go. We had          time, so I thought we could practise parking. I        , with the wheel hitting the pavement. After that, the little bit of confidence I had was         . I tried two more times, but did not improve much. Then we went towards the driving          site.
I waited twenty minutes---just enough time to make myself believe that I was going to fail. Then, finally, it was my         . I wasn’t sure of myself at all. I just wanted to get it over and make sure that I had to come back next Thursday.
The first thing I had to do was parking, which I did quite well. The         that came with it hit me like a wave. The rest of the test went well and I passed it.
The          of my mum made her face softer. I knew her worry was gone and she was happy for me.

He said, “My dad often      me to believe that as long as you have     , you should have faith. Every time you look into the mirror, you’re looking at yourself and see “ Faith”.
The    I learned from this is simple-----faith is a living thing and in the same way we’re all      given 24 hours a day and we’re all given the same measure of faith. Faith keeps us going when things get       ! Why is some people’s faith stronger than that of others? Exercise!
