I want to tell you about a very exciting holiday I had. Last December I went to the Ice Hotel with my father. It was in a village of Sweden. 

It was a special hotel made of ice and snow. I read an interesting report about this hotel in a travel magazine and I showed it to my father. He was so excited that we decided to go. 

It was like a dream. We were so surprised. Everything was made of ice. A woman at the door gave us special coats and gloves. We could use them to protect ourselves in the very cold place. There was a garden at the hotel. There we saw a lot of nice sculptures (雕塑). Some artists came to the Ice Hotel and they made them with ice. In the evening we ate at the hotel restaurant. They put the food on ice plates. We had some fantastic fish and a delicious dessert. Of course, it was ice cream!

There was a nice shop there too. I bought a sweater and a cap, but I didn't buy many things because they were very expensive. In the shop, I met a girl named Catherine. She is from France. She wanted to buy a sweater, but she didn't speak English, so I helped her. We became friends. Yesterday I got an email from her with several photos she took at the hotel. It was really a fantastic holiday.

Lightning(闪电) flashed through the darkness over Sibson's bedroom window. Sibson was woken up 1 he knew what was happening. The storm had moved directly over his two-floor wooden house. Then he heard the smoke alarm 2 .

Sibson rushed down the stairs to check : he opened the door to the basement(地下室), and it was on fire. Sibson went back upstairs 3 to call 911 from his bedroom.

"The room had a separate outdoor stairway(楼梯), so I felt 4 at first ," he explains. But the phone didn't work, and when he tried to go down the outdoor stairway, he was 5 by the big fire. Now Sibson realized he was in danger.

Sibson's house was three kilometers off the main road and was so well hidden by trees that he knew shouting for help would be 6 .

Up a hill nearby lived Sibson's neighbor, Huggons. He was lying in bed when something like a smoke alarm came into his 7 . He jumped out of bed, took his flashlight and phone, and headed down toward the 8 . Then he saw the rolling heavy smoke.

Huggons called 911, and the operator warned him not to 9 the house. But Huggons said, "There is no way I am going to listen to Sibson 10 in that fire."

"Anyone there?" Huggons called out. Then he heard"Help! I'm 11 the house!" coming from the second floor balcony(阳台). He tried to get into the house many times, but soon had to run back to catch his breath 12 the thick smoke.

Several minutes later, the wind blew away the smoke so that it was just enough for him to see Sibson. He noticed a 13 with the help of the flashlight. He took it over to the balcony and 14 Sibson before the house fell off.

Sibson is still 15 when he tells the story. "I almost lost my life that night," he says, "Then I heard the most beautiful sound in my life. It was Huggons."
