I still remember the first time I left home for one or two{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(night). I was going to a summer camp for a month. When my parents told me about the camp, I was{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(excite), because there were lots of activities there .

The whole family drove me to the camp. When we arrived, I saw a lot of kids,{#blank#}3{#/blank#} I didn't know anyone. I began to feel nervous. They gave me a little card{#blank#}4{#/blank#}my name on it. Then a girl, who looked{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (old) than me, came up to me and said, “Hi, Margie! I'm Sara. Our cabin is the Pines.”

Finally the time came when my parents said, “Well, Margie, goodbye. Have{#blank#}6{#/blank#} great time. And don't worry; we'll write to {#blank#}7{#/blank#} often. ”

I had an awful feeling. I wanted{#blank#}8{#/blank#} (cry). But just then another girl of my age came up to me and{#blank#}9{#/blank#} (say), “Hi, are you Margie? I'm Tammy. I'm in the Pines, too. Come on. Let's go see the horses.”

So off we went and I had a {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (wonder)month at camp

    Many people think that the dinosaurs(恐龙) were the biggest animals that ever lived. They are wrong. The world's biggest animal is still living, and it lives in the sea. It is called the Blue Whale, Blue Whales can be as long as 30 meters {#blank#}1{#/blank#} weigh as much as 1,000 kilos. The largest dinosaurs {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (weigh) only 500 kilos.

    The whale is not only the world's biggest animal, it is also one of the {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (clever). We know that whales can communicate with one{#blank#}4{#/blank#} (other), although we do not know what they are saying. One day perhaps we will learn to talk to whales, and then they will be able to tell us about {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (they).

    There are lots of stories {#blank#}6{#/blank#} whales, and maybe the most famous one is called Moby Dick, which was {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (write) by the American writer, Herman Melville. In this story, a sailor ——Captain Ahab spends a lot of time trying to find and kill{#blank#}8{#/blank#} very big white whale named Moby Dick. {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (Sad), there are not many kinds of whales left. People have killed them for {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (thousand) of years for food and other things. However, there are now laws(法律) to stop people killing most kinds of whales, so perhaps there will be more of them in the years to come.

Don't run{#blank#}1{#/blank#}It's dangerous．
