My family love travelling. Last summer we went on holiday to Ningxia. We had been there {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(两次). It's a wonderful place where there are beautiful {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (建筑物)and interesting people. But this time I had an unpleasant {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (经历)in a restaurant.

    On the second day we {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(计划)to see an old town. The hotel manager said we could get there by bus in two hours. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(然而), the hot bus ride took us over four hours. We were so hungry that we had some noodles in a small restaurant. We were {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(吃惊的)to find them quite nice. Then I saw a man eat some little meatballs. I bought some, too. I ate the first one very quickly. I was just eating the second one when I felt{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(我自己)burning—my mouth was on fire! I coughed badly and there were tears in my eyes. I wasn't even {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(能)to describe how spicy(辣的) it was!

    I drank about ten glasses of water. Everyone else saw me and {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(笑)at me. It was really the{#blank#}10{#/blank#} (最坏的)trip in my life!

    Frank and Paul {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (是) my good friends. They like {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (运动). Frank thinks baseball is {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (有趣的). He likes baseball. Paul {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (喜欢) to play tennis. He {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (认为) tennis is relaxing. They don't play soccer, They think it's {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (困难的). Frank doesn't {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (观看) TV. He thinks it's boring. Paul {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (玩) computer games. He thinks playing computer games is fun. Frank and Paul {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (有) volleyballs. They like to play volleyball at {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (学校).

    A few years ago, I was eating dinner with my children before we went to a museum. We were talking p{#blank#}1{#/blank#} when a man walked up to me and asked if I had a f{#blank#}2{#/blank#} dollars to give him. I replied that I didn't even have one coin with me. Of course, my kids stood up and said, "Yes, you do, mommy." I was a little embarrassed because I felt as if they c{#blank#}3{#/blank#} me not telling the truth. Normally, I don't carry lots of money in my w{#blank#}4{#/blank#} Instead, I pay with my bank card everywhere I go."

    So I told the man I could u{#blank#}5{#/blank#} my bank card to buy him something to eat. His disappointing e{#blank#}6{#/blank#} quickly changed into a smile. Then I went to get him some kinds of food. He thanked me when I h{#blank#}7{#/blank#} him a bag of food. After he left, I had a talk w{#blank#}8{#/blank#} my children, "Usually, I don't always like giving money to everyone who asks for it. H{#blank#}9{#/blank#}, I am not against meeting the needs of others as l{#blank#}10{#/blank#} as I have it." I felt good knowing that the man had a nice meal that evening.
