It is really sad news for Guinness World Records. Tiffany Two, the holder of the  {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(old) cat record, has passed away in hersleep at{#blank#}2{#/blank#} age of 27 years, 2months and 20 days.

        Born on March 13, 1988 in San Diego, California,Tiffany Two {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(buy) by herowner, Sharon Voorhees, from a local pet shop. At that time, the cat was onlysix  {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(week) old. Sharon named her TiffanyTwo in memory of the cat she once{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(own) In the 1970s.

        In fact,{#blank#}6{#/blank#} Tiffany Two celebrated her 27^thbirthday back in March, she had lived the equivalent (等量) of 125 human years.

        Despite {#blank#}7{#/blank#} unbelievable age, Tiffany Two was reported tohave good sight and hearing {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (recent). Tiffany Two only had minor{#blank#}9{#/blank#} (ill) such as high blood pressure, and Sharondescribed her as “strong and still able to go up and down stairs”.

        “She's not afraid  {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (play) with anyone or any animal.She walks right past the dogs. She's very active!” Sharon explained.

    Once a group of 50 people was attending a seminar. Halfway{#blank#}1{#/blank#} his talk, the speaker stopped and decided{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(create) a group activity. He went around the hall and gave each person a balloon. Each one was asked to write his or her name on the balloon{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(use) a marker pen. Then all the balloons{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(collect) and put in another room.

    The speaker then led the group to the room full of balloons and asked them to find the balloon that had their name{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(write) on within five minutes.  Everyone was{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(hurry) searching for their name, bumping into each other, pushing each other around. It was chaos. At the end of the five minutes no one could find their own balloon.

    Now each person was asked to randomly collect{#blank#}7{#/blank#}balloon and give it to the person whose name was on it. Within two minutes everyone had their own balloon. When everyone quieted down, the speaker began to talk, saying that this is exactly{#blank#}8{#/blank#}was happening in our lives.

    We may like to think of{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(us) more important than others, but our happiness sometimes lies in the happiness of other people. Give them their happiness {#blank#}10{#/blank#}you will get your own happiness.

    The Olympic Games are the {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(big) sports meeting in the world. There are two kinds of Olympic Games. One is the Summer Olympic Games, and the other is the Winter Olympic Games. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}of them are held every four years on a regular {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(base). All countries can take part if their athletes have reached the {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(agree) standard to the games. In the past women were not allowed to take part in the Olympic Games. Nowadays, women have a chance {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(play) an important role in the great games. Because of so many athletes, a special village is needed to build for {#blank#}6{#/blank#} to live in, {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(include) a main reception building, several stadiums for competitions, a large swimming pool, and seats for audience {#blank#}8{#/blank#}watch the games. It is a great honor to host the Olympic Games. In addition, for many countries it's just as much competition to host the Olympic Games {#blank#}9{#/blank#} to win Olympic medals. Nowadays, the olive wreath has been replaced by medals. But it's still about being able to run {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(fast), jump higher and throw farther.

    I can still remember the day we brought her home from the animal shelter (收容所). Lexie moved in my arms when I held her, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} the second I handed this lovely dog to my daughter, she settled down. My daughter cried tears of joy while {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(hold) her on the way home and Lexie happily licked (舔) them away.

    Since then, they {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(be) good friends. They lie under blankets on the sofa and watch TV together. When my daughter climbs into bed, Lexie will carry her toys on top of the covers {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (join) her. Lexie's favorite spot is right in my daughter's arms. If she could spend every second of the day there, she {#blank#}5{#/blank#}.

    The other day I {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(watch) Lexie while my daughter, who lives right up the road from me, did some housework. When it was time {#blank#}7{#/blank#} Lexie to go home, I could see Lexie's {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(excite) as I leashed (用皮带牵) her up. I opened the back door and let her out. She was running as fast as she could. I called her name, but {#blank#}9{#/blank#} was no use. She had found my daughter on the road. My daughter bent down to pick her up. Lexie jumped into her arms and happily licked her face.

    I smiled, seeing she was back {#blank#}10{#/blank#} she belonged.
