But a few weeks later, the head of the computer camp called me, telling that I could go to the camp. I couldn’t believe my 5 . At that camp, I really learnt a lot.
Then, two years later, I received another call from the camp director. “I’ve found 6 I think you’ll want to see,” he said. When we met, he gave me a handwritten letter from my mom.
She wrote that I was the 7 kid she had ever known. She talked a lot about my early love for machines and computers. She ended by saying she didn’t have enough money and hoped in her heart that they would still accept me. I broke down 8 right then and there.
In 2014, I finally got a job where I could use all my skills. Now, I’m 9 to say that I’ve broken my family’s cycle of living poorly. And all I want to do now is to thank my mum for everything she has done for me. Without her, I would 10 have the bright life I have today.

A lively green forest in the middle of a rocky wasteland! This is not fantasy. Abdul Kareem created it 1 his own hands.

He just let his forest grow 9 . He believed in the ability of nature without the interference (干预) of humans. That’s why he does not allow fallen leaves or sticks from the forest to be removed.
“If trees, animals and birds 10 , only then humans have a future,” Kareem said in an interview.

One day, a young man named Gary went to see an old man. He wanted to know why he wasn’t able to 1 all of his goals.
With a smile, the wise man listened to Gary’s story and said, “First, come to help me boil (煮沸) a teapot of water!” Gary saw a big teapot next to a small stove (炉子), but he couldn’t find any wood. So he went out to 2 some.
He came back with dry wood. He 3 the teapot with water and put it on the stove. Then he put some wood in the stove and started a fire. But the teapot was too 4 . When the wood burned out, the water did not boil. So he ran out to get more.
By the time he came back, the water nearly turned 5 . This time, he prepared more wood ahead of time and the water boiled in no time.
The old man then said, “Look at these different 6 of wood. Some burn fast, while others last longer. Which ones do you think are best for boiling water?”
The room was quiet as Gary 7 . But he didn’t know the answer, so he shook his head slowly.
“Well, choosing the right wood is like choosing the right path for your goals,” the old man said. “If you use the wrong kind, you’ll waste time and energy.”

My family was poor for a long time. 1 my mom and dad came from very poor families. When I was five, I showed an interest in machines. Before long, I was trying to take 2 an old computer in my kindergarten classroom. By Grade 3, I was learning to program (编程) using the BASIC language.

But a few weeks later, the head of the computer camp called me, telling that I could go to the camp. I couldn’t believe my 5 . At that camp, I really learnt a lot.
Then, two years later, I received another call from the camp director. “I’ve found 6 I think you’ll want to see,” he said. When we met, he gave me a handwritten letter from my mom.
She wrote that I was the 7 kid she had ever known. She talked a lot about my early love for machines and computers. She ended by saying she didn’t have enough money and hoped in her heart that they would still accept me. I broke down 8 right then and there.
In 2014, I finally got a job where I could use all my skills. Now, I’m 9 to say that I’ve broken my family’s cycle of living poorly. And all I want to do now is to thank my mum for everything she has done for me. Without her, I would 10 have the bright life I have today.
