    A few weeks ago, I visited Sydney, a perfect place to surf. I knew I couldn't leave it without going surfing {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (I). I booked a group surf lesson when I was in Byron Bay. Byron Bay is {#blank#}2{#/blank#} really popular place for professional surfers to go!

    We first were asked to learn how to read the sea conditions and {#blank#}3{#/blank#} to expect in the water. Then we did a warm-up by {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (run) along the beach. Next, it {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (be) time to learn how to stand on the surfboard. We did it on the sand. After a lot of practice, we were ready to go out into the sea {#blank#}6{#/blank#} try it out on the water. I have to say, surfing is much {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (hard) than it looks. When you watch people from the beach, they make it look so easy! I failed many {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (time) to stand up. Then one of the coaches came to help me and held my board steady (平稳的).

    Finally I learnt how to do that and by the end of the lesson I had managed to "walk on water". It was an {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (amaze) feeling and I felt so proud {#blank#}10{#/blank#} myself!

    Adam was an English senior high student living in Liverpool. He thought he was {#blank#}1{#/blank#}cleverest student in his class.

    One day, Adam wanted to see his uncle in London, so he bought a train {#blank#}2{#/blank#}from Liverpool to London. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}he reached the railway station, there were so many people. There were no seats in the carriage（车厢）. Then Adam saw a man selling toys. He suddenly had a good {#blank#}4{#/blank#}.

    Adam bought a rubber（橡胶做的）snake and {#blank#}5{#/blank#}it into the carriage. All the passengers were very afraid when they saw the "snake". They all shouted {#blank#}6{#/blank#}help. People ran out of the carriage as {#blank#}7{#/blank#}as possible. Adam saw several {#blank#}8{#/blank#} seats and lay down on one of them. He quickly fell {#blank#}9{#/blank#}.

    After an hour, Adam woke up. He found the train was not moving and thought it had stopped at a station. He asked a railway man, "Which station is it?"

    The railway man {#blank#}10{#/blank#},"It is Liverpool. In fact, there was a snake in this carriage. So it was separated（隔离）and left behind here, the other carriages have left for London."

    Hello, everyone. My name is Jenny. Today we played football together after school. It was a fair competition. We {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(lose). The score was three to four.

    In the English class this morning, I had the p{#blank#}2{#/blank#} of talking to Mary. She is from Hong Kong. She invited me {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(go) to the movies with her next Sunday.

    Last Saturday, my mother bought a p{#blank#}4{#/blank#} of jeans for me. She also bought me a purple blouse. Everyone liked them. On Wednesday, Brian is arriving from the U.K. He {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(stay) with my family for the next two years. I am very happy.
