Jimmy is five years 1. He is a lovely boy. He plays 2 other children in a small park each day. The park is near his building.

    His mother buys new clothes for 3. The clothes are expensive and nice. Jimmy is very happy.

    "Mom, can I go out and play with my friends? I want them to 4 my new clothes," asks Jimmy.

    "Yes, please keep your clothes 5," says his mother. "I'm going to do some cooking. We'll 6 supper after your father comes back." 7 six o'clock Jimmy's father comes back from work, Jimmy goes home for supper.

    "Why do you have so much earth(泥土)on your clothes?" 8 his mother.

    "Because I have some falls(跌倒)," answers Jimmy.

    "You shouldn't make the nice 9 dirty," says the mother.

    "I'm sorry, Mom," says Jimmy, "I had 10 time to take off(脱下) my clothes when I fell."

It took five tries and forty years for Xia Boyu, an amazing climber, to get to the top of the world.

On his first Qomolangma try in 1975, Xia got frostbite(冻疮) and had to have his feet—and later legs—amputated (截肢).

Xia went back again in 2014, 2015 and 2016. On that last try a strong snowstorm forced him to turn back less than 100 meters from the top.

"It's been a dream of mine for more than 40 years," Xia said. In 2018 Xia finally realized his dream, making him the first Chinese double amputee to summit(登顶) Qomolangma. "This time after 43 years, Qomolangma accepted me, finally," he said.

"Climbing the highest mountain in the world with prosthetics (假体) adds another level of difficulty, because it is difficult to feel the ground. Whatever you are standing on, what kind of roads you walk on, whether it is good or bad, they do not give you any feelings. You have to learn it day-to-day, to find the feeling," said Xia. He also said he had to use his body to keep balance as prosthetics cannot walk up and down like real legs. "I have to be stronger than others," he added.

"I have learned from my journey to the top that you should move forward bravely no matter what conditions you face. Never give up on your dream," said Xia.

One night, I finished my homework a little earlier than usual. Seeing my parents still being busy with housework, suddenly, one thought came to my mind. I decided to write a note to Mom and Dad. I was a young teenager and it was the first time that I ever wrote something that wasn't school homework. At that moment, I just wanted to let Mom and Dad know I loved them, how much they meant to me, and how grateful I was to them for all that they gave to their daughter. Being too shy to say these things face to face, 1 wrote them down in a note for my parents to find after I went to bed.

Later that night, I heard a gentle knock at my door. Sleepily, I got out of bed and opened the door up. There were Mom and Dad with a look of such love on their faces. Mom and Dad hugged me and thanked me for my note. I even could see tears in Mom's eyes. Seeing the happiness I gave them made my own heart jump for joy. I was amazed that my simple words could touch them so much.

That beautiful memory has stayed alive in my soul(灵魂) ever since. I began to share my stories online with thousands of people all over this world. It reminds me not to be shy about sharing happiness with this world. They can be thanks, hugs and smiles. They can even be a simple note written with love.

All that matters is that you share them in different ways. All that matters is that you use them to make this world more beautiful. 

This is my uncle's farm. It's a big farm.

He has many kinds of animals. Look at the horses. They are white. How many horses can you see? I can see twelve. Does he have cows? Yes, he has. He has ten black and white cows. He has fifteen rabbits, too. They are brown. Look! What are under the big tree? Oh, they are baby chickens. The chickens are yellow. Are those ducks? No, they aren't. They are geese. The geese are white. Do you like sheep? He has eleven white sheep, too. What's that over there ? It's a black dog. I like it.

What else can you see on the farm? I can see apple trees, tomato and potato plants and flowers.

This is a beautiful farm. Do you like it?
