Five years ago, US art collector and writer Forrest Fenn h{#blank#}2{#/blank#} a treasure box somewhere in New Mexico, the US. The box was f{#blank#}3{#/blank#} of gold coins, diamonds and other treasure. It's worth about ＄1. 8 m{#blank#}4{#/blank#} (12, 400,000 yuan), and it will go to whoever finds the box. The 84-year-old millionaire(百万富翁)7 l{#blank#}5{#/blank#} some clues(线索) in his book The Thrill of the Chase.

    Fenn said the i{#blank#}6{#/blank#} came to him after he got cancer(癌症) in 1988." I wanted the monetary value(金钱的价值) to be a consideration for those who are l{#blank#}7{#/blank#} for it, but mostly my motive(动机)was to get kids off the sofa and a{#blank#}8{#/blank#} from their texting machines and out in the m{#blank#}9{#/blank#} ."he told KOAT News in the US. Fenn said about 30,000 people came to find the box last year. He g{#blank#}10{#/blank#} that this year more than 50,000 people would come.

    There are many beaches in Hong Kong. Some of the beaches are the best in the world. There are some toilets (厕所) , changing rooms (更衣室) and stores to buy food or drinks on most of the beaches. People like going to the beaches and have fun swimming. You can swim there without (没有) danger if you follow these rules：

    ◆Never swim alone (独自).

    ◆Don't stay in the water for a long time.

    ◆Never swim after a meal or when you feel hungry or tired.

Remember：A red flag (旗帜) means it is dangerous for anybody to go into the water. A blue flag means that it is dangerous for children.

    In England, people often talk about the weather because you can experience four seasons in one day. In the morning the weather is warm just like in spring. An hour 1 black clouds come, and then it rains hard. The weather gets 2 cold. In the late afternoon the sky will be clear, the sun will begin to shine and it will be summer at this time of a day.

    In England, you can also have summer in winter, 3 have winter in summer. So in 4 you can swim sometimes, and in summer sometimes you should wear warm clothes.

    When you go to England, you will see some English people take umbrellas or rain-coats with them on the 5 morning, but you shouldn't laugh at them. If you don't take an umbrella or a raincoat, you will regret later in the day.

    We have to be fit, no matter (不管) what age we are. It's very important for kids. That's w{#blank#}1{#/blank#} they have P.E. class.

    In Britain students have two hours of P.E. each week. P.E. includes sit-ups, press-ups (俯卧撑) and skipping rope.

    Students also p{#blank#}2{#/blank#}football, basketball and cross-country running. In summer kids run and do the high and long jumps.

    When I was at school my favourite was trampoline(蹦床). Jumping high into the air always made me excited. But you need to be c{#blank#}3{#/blank#}. Sometimes you don't land where you planned!

    When you get your report card there will be a grade for P.E.. Your parents will see how good you are a{#blank#}4{#/blank#} push-ups, as well as maths. But the grade for P.E. doesn't affect (影响) your chances of g{#blank#}5{#/blank#} into a good school.

Every country has its own way of cooking.

Most people in the United States like fast food, but if you think that {#blank#}1{#/blank#}, you are wrong. It's true that most Americans eat fast food for their breakfast and lunch, but {#blank#}2{#/blank#}. Parents see the importance of teaching their children how to cook, and most Americans say that home-cooked meals are the best.

{#blank#}3{#/blank#}. For example, baking（烘焙) is the most popular way of cooking in America. Most American families have ovens and {#blank#}4{#/blank#}. In planning a big meal, they try to cook meat, a few vegetables, some bread and often some sweet food.

{#blank#}5{#/blank#}. There are many kinds of foods in different colors, so the meal is healthy and looks beautiful, too.

People love walking through a giant puzzle. In a corn maze(玉米迷宫), they can follow miles of paths and run into lots of dead ends before they finally find their way out. The corn maze has been growing for almost 30 years. 

Simple corn mazes began appearing in the 1980s. In 1993, the first big corn maze created for the public to enjoy was made in Annville Pennsylvania, by Don Frantz and Adrian Fischer. Then, in a corntield as big as two and a half football fields, Mr. Frantz created "The Amazing Maize Maze"with the help of his family and friends. When it was done, almost two miles of pathways snaked through the cornfield. Since then, thousands of corn mazes have been created around the world.

For many farmers, a corn maze means a boost(激增) of extra income. During the opening weekend, about 6, 000 visitors came to get lost in Mr. Frantz's maze. Charging only $5 per person, he earned almost $32, 000in two weeks.

Brett Herbst is also a maze designer. In 1999 he set a world record for the world's largest corn maze, an image of the solar system with nine planets in it. He now has a business called The Maize, which has designed more than 4, 000 mazes around the world. "Corn mazes help people connectwith their roots, "he says. "People are so far removed from farm life that they are drawn to something real, something organic. "

Today, a great number of people enjoy seeking fun in a corn maze. Mr. Herbst says, "When we see families on the farm having fun, we know that they are making memories that will last a lifetime. "
