Dear Kitty，

I am sorry that I did not write ___1__ you earlier because T have been very busy．I was helping ___2__ a charity show to raise money for Project Green Hope．A lot of work needed to be finished．so I did not have ___3__ free time．

I felt very happy when I ___4__ to be the host．It was ___5__，but I was also very nervous ___6__ the TV cameras．I knew that lots of people would watch the show and that many famous ___7__ would come too．

We started working on the show ___8__ ago，so we could do everything on time．1t was my job to introduce each star．I also had many other duties．It was hard work but I was ___9__ to do it．

We practised a lot ___10__ the show．I had to remember to look at the right camera at the right time．___11__，I thought l would never be able to remember all the words and do everything right at the same time．Slowly，everything became ___12__．

The big day came very quickly，and suddenly it was the night before the charity show．I couldn't ___13__ at all that night because l was so excited．‘Will it be a ___14__?’ I kept ___15__ myself．

Twenty minutes before the big event，the doors opened and many people came into ___16__．‘No time to be nervous any more．This is it，’ I told myself．A lot of people came to watch the show．The fans of the pop stars were making a lot of noise，so I __17__ speak loudly．

Everything seemed to happen so fast，and now it is all over．A lot of money has been donated to Project-Green Hope．Everyone was very ___18__ and we had a lot of support from local businesses．I hope more events like this ___19__ to raise money for charity and I think more people should be invited ___20_ part in them．

　　Every Saturday, Jack went to the market（市場(chǎng)）to buy food and other things. He put them in a big basket, but he was old and not strong, so he always paid another man to carry the basket home for him. One Saturday, while he was walking home in front of' the man with the basket, the man ran away with it.

　　The next Saturday, when Jack went to the market again, a friend of his said, “kook, there he is! The man stole your thing last week!” Jack at once hid behind a shop, and stayed there until he left.

　　His friend was very surprised. “Why did you do that ?” he said. “Well,” said Jack,“that man was canting my basket when he left me a week ago. He'll want me to pay him for seven days' work, and that will cost me more than a basket full of things.”
