Do you enjoy climbing mountains? I'd like to tell you a true story about John and Peter. They were {#blank#}1{#/blank#} mountaineers. As John was experienced, he was always asking Peter to copy his example. “Would you like to stand on the {#blank#}2{#/blank#} of the world, Peter?” “Of course . It has already {#blank#}3{#/blank#} my dream,”Peter answered.
On a sunny morning, the two men started for the top of Mount Qomolangma. After they climbed over one of the most {#blank#}4{#/blank#} slopes, they found a man lying in the snow. “He's going to {#blank#}5{#/blank#} ,”Peter looked at John and said, as if he would help the man. “Leave him by himself and just follow me !If you bring the burden with you , I'm {#blank#}6{#/blank#} you'll lose your life.”John warned Peter . Then he turned around and walked forward {#blank#}7{#/blank#} . It was too cold. After thinking for a {#blank#}8{#/blank#} , Peter made up his mind to help the dying man. He carried the man on his back and made his way forward . Little by little , Peter's temperature made the man {#blank#}9{#/blank#} . The man came to himself! And soon he could move all by himself. Together they moved side by side.
About two hours later, they kept up with John.To his surprise , they found that John was almost dead in he snow. He had been {#blank#}10{#/blank#} to death.

    Reading newspapers has become an important part of everyday life. Some {#blank#}1{#/blank#} read newspapers as the first thing to do in the morning, others read newspapers as soon as they have free time during the day so that they can learn what is {#blank#}2{#/blank#} in the world.

    Sometimes, we do not have enough time to read all the news {#blank#}3{#/blank#}, so we just take a quick look at the front page. At other times, we may be so busy {#blank#}4{#/blank#} we only have a few minutes to look at the names of the passages.

    Newspapers can be {#blank#}5{#/blank#} everywhere in the world. We can get many different kinds of newspapers in big cities, but in some mountain villages we can see {#blank#}6{#/blank#} newspapers.

    Some newspapers are published once a week, {#blank#}7{#/blank#} most of the papers are published once a day with many pages, some even published twice a day!

"I never {#blank#}6{#/blank#} to dig them One day on my way home from work, I was {#blank#}7{#/blank#}to see the highway workers had cut off the pretty blue flowers. I thought to myself, "You waited too {#blank#}8{#/blank#}You should have done it when you first saw them blooming this spring.

    A week ago we were sad to learn that my oldest sister {#blank#}9{#/blank#}a cancer, She is 20 years older than me, and because of being far away, we {#blank#}10{#/blank#}ever visited her, I thought about the pretty blue flowers and then about my sister, I won't miss the time I can spend staying with her.
