strengthen our marriage,” she offered. “each of us will write a list of the things that we find a bit annoying with the other person. then, we can talk about how we can fix them together and make our

bear people to look at me and think i was not like them. i must have been a terrible danger on the roads. coming across me wandering through the traffic, motorists probably would have to step rapidly on their brakes. apart from that, there were all sorts of disasters that use d to occur on the way to and from work.one evening, i got off the bus about halfway home where i had to change buses, and as usual i ran into something. “im awfully sorry，” i said and stepped forward only to run into it again. when it happened a third time, i realized i had been apologizing to a lamppost. this was just one of the stupid things that constantly happened to me. so i carried on and found the bus stop, which was a request stop, where the bus wouldnt stop unless passengers wanted to get on or off. no one else was there and i had to try to guess if the bus had arrived.generally in this situation, because i hated showing i was blind by asking for help, i tried to guess at the sound. sometimes i would stop a big lorry and stand there feeling stupid as it drew away. in the end, i usually managed to swallow my pride and ask someone at the stop for help. but on this particular evening no one joined me at the stop; it seemed that everyone had suddenly decided not to travel by bus. of course i heard plenty of buses pass, or i thought i did. but because i had given up stopping them for fear of making a fool of myself, i let them all go by. i stood there alone for half an hour without stopping one. then i gave up. i decided to walk on to the next stop.【小题1】 the girl refused to ask for help because

should eat every day. they are: (1) green and yellow vegetables of all kinds. (2) citrus(柑桔) fruits and tomatoes; (3) potatoes and other fruits and vegetables; (4) meat of all kinds, fish and eggs; (5) milk and foods made from milk; (6) bread or cereal(谷类), rice is also in this kind of food; (7) butter, or something like butter.paragraph 2people in different countries and different places of the world eat different kinds of things. foods are cooked and eaten in many different kinds of ways. people in different countries eat at different times of the day. in some places people eat once or twice a day; in other countries people eat three or four times a day. scientists say that none of the differences is really important. it doesnt matter whether foods are eaten raw(生的) or cooked, canned or frozen. it doesnt matter if a person eats dinner at 4 oclock in the afternoon or at eleven oclock at night. the important thing is what you eat every day.paragraph 3there are two problems, then, in feeding the large number of people on earth. the first is to find some ways t
