Last year，during the summer holiday，I found part-time job，worked in a toothbrush factory at night．Not until I experienced it did I realized that it was no easy job.1went to work when my parents were going to bed．On the morning，when my parents were going to work，I came to home to sleep．This backward schedule was very tough for me that I often felt tiring．But I am glad that I had this unforgettable experience．Not only is it fun to"rise and shine"along with the moon or stars，but also I had learned to appreciate the hard work of those which are working while the rest of us are sleeping．

Understand what's wrong．

Start small．
Find ways to make a difference every day．It may feel as though you are just one tiny part of a huge system．At first，you almost certainly will be．Be patient．（38）C．Try to put your activism into practice and make it a reality．
（39）B
Write letters to newspapers； post an article，vieo，or idea on the internet； wear a T-shirt．If you think that it is important and worthy of attention，try to raise awareness（意识） by telling as many people as you can．
Consider a career．
Think about which sort of job might put you in the best position to change the world．（40）EThere are a lot of ways to get paid for adding value to the world．Start researching to find jobs in fields that feel valuable．

5．I had dressed quite nicely for my first day as a student at St．Anne's College of Further Education．In celebration of this new beginning，I had changed my unusual clothes to formal clothing．
Like many young people my age，I was under the impression that the best way to show your personality was by wearing the kind of clothing that my mother considered was not fit to be seen in public．But for my first day as a student I had made an effort to look what my mother called‘respectable'．
There were fifteen of us，sitting in the theatre hall，while the head of the drama department，Mr．Wilson，gave us a warm welcoming speech．To my horror （恐惧），he then invited us to say why we had decided to do a drama course．I had no idea what I would say．The truth was that although I had a taste for unusual clothing，I was painfully shy．
My worry grew as it came closer to my turn．One by one，the new students excitedly explained their reasons．Then it was the turn of a girl who I hadn't really noticed until that moment because I was too busy thinking about what I would say．‘My name's Tracy and I'm from Blackburn'，she said，and then added no further information．
Everyone smiled politely in silence but I was impressed at her bravery in saying almost nothing even under pressure （压力）．I relaxed，knowing that you could get away with saying so little about yourself．It gave me confidence．
After Mr．Wilson at long last let us out of the hall to go to lunch，I managed to find the courage to go up to Tracy．She looked very unfriendly．Taking a deep breath，I introduced myself．To my surprise，she looked up at me and gave me a very bright，sweet smile．That was twenty-seven years ago，and although we never did become famous stars，we're still best friends．

In the past my hometown was the most beautiful place．Thick trees and green grass could be seen anywhere．In order to build more house and grow more crops，people cut down much more trees．As time went on，the whole forest was almost destroyed．Gradually，the green hills turn wasteland．As a result，sandstorms struck us now and then，from what we suffered a lot．But I do wish all the people could realize the terribly disaster caused by man．What's more，they should take good care of our nature and punish those who against the law．

Waiting until Thursday night to study for Friday's test will make a homework night no fun!It also makes it hard to do your best．We're all guilty about putting things off sometimes．One of the best ways to make sure that doesn't happen is to make a schedule f what to do．

2．Buying insurance is a way in which people can protect themselves against large losses．Protection against fire is one kind of insurance．Large numbers of people pay small sums of money to an insurance company．Although thousands of people have paid for fire insurance，only a few will lose their homes by fire．The insurance company will pay for these homes out of the small sums of money it had collected．

Later on another new insurance company was started in America．This company，which offered life insurance，collected small sums of money regularly from many different men．If a man died，his family was given a large sum of money．
Over the years，insurance companies have offered new kinds of insurance protection．The new kinds of insurance cover from such accidents as car and plane crashes．Today，most people have some kind of insurance．
