Unit 4 Sharing grammar课时作业

第一节 完型填空

　　Have you ever imagined your future? I try to do this all the time. Most of us will follow in our 　1　footsteps, and by this I mean our adult lives will 　2　 resemble the lives we live as children, set by our parents' examples. Have you ever 　3　 and thought about this? What an awful job it must be to 　4　 a child properly! But, what happens to the children that live 　5　 drugs, alcohol and violence in their childhood? Where can they find good examples for themselves?

　　I know of one place that is trying to 　6　 all children. It is the McDowell County D.A.R.E. program in McDowell County North Carolina. Our teachers carry on their shoulders the great 　7　 of teaching kids to just say NO to drugs, alcohol and violence. I am personally acquainted with 　8　 of these things, not because I have ever 　9　 them myself, but because of my dad. He drank, 　10　 drugs and smoked pot (抽大麻). When I was 7 my mom took me and my sister and 　11　. I wonder if my dad ever thought about the 　12　and what this bad decision would lead to when he first started experimenting with drugs and pot at 13. He has been in jail, he can't get a decent job, and he has lost his 　13　. These bad choices also caused him to hurt his children in horrible ways.

I am 　14　 that I have at least one parent to help me make wise decisions, and to teach me right from wrong. I am also 　15　 that the D.A.R.E. program is taught in our school. One of the most 　16　 things I learned from D.A.R.E. is that a person that has a parent with an addiction problem is more than twice as likely to become addicted themselves, as compared to a person that has no family history of drug 　17　. I have learned many things through this 　18　, especially about the consequences of our trying drugs. You could get arrested, hurt yourself or someone else, 　19　 your life by becoming an addict, or even die.All of these things are terrible, but I can't think of anything 　20　 as a parent than hurting our children and the people that love us. DRUGS DESTROY LIVES! I give the D.A.R.E. program two thumbs up, for all the good things being accomplished.
