I am Frank. In our western countries, there are four seasons or 365 days in a year. Usually, we sleep 8 hours every day. So we have 122 days for sleeping. Then our study or work time is only 243 days left. But there are 52 weekends in a year. Each weekend is two days. We lose another 104 days a year for work. It takes up about one hour to have breakfast and supper. This comes to 15 days over a year. Four free hours each evening takes up 61 days. But we can't work all the time, so we need holidays. We have to remember that we get 2 days' holiday at Easter, 3 at Christmas and 1at the New Year. There are also 4 Bank holidays. Take those 10 days away and we have 32 days for work. But then we have one and a half hours' lunch every day, and half an hour's coffee break. That comes to 30 days a year. This means that we have only a few days left for study or work every year. What about you in China?

Bagheera was not happy about this. He said {#blank#}5{#/blank#} Baloo, "Remember how small he is.{#blank#}6{#/blank#} can his little brain remember all your long words? "

"These words will keep him safe from the Snake-People and all the other {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(animal), "said Baloo." It is {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(true) that he is small.

 Our parents love us in their own ways. My father was fifty years old when I was five years old. I didn't know why he was home to 1 me. Dad did so many things for me 2 my school years. He would always make lunch for me to take it to the 3 . There would be a card with"I love you" on it. He always had some things to make me4 and let me know that he loved me. My friends all hoped that they could get that kind of 5 . I was so proud to have him as my6 . 

 When I left home to study to another city, I thought the7 would stop. 8 , my friends and I were excited that his cards continued (继续). I called him a lot. After I said9 , he always said, "Angie?" "Yes, Dad?" "I love you. " "I love you, too, Dad. "

 My friends called him" the 10 Dad in the world". And when they knew that my father was ill, they sent him their best 11 . He taught all of us about a father' s love. I wouldn't be 12 if my friends started sending messages to their children. 

 As he got 13 , I decided to come home. Those were the hardest days to go through. I was with him in a hospital for a few days14 he died. We sat together and watched TV. As I was preparing to 15 , he said, "Angie?" "Yes, Dad?" "I love you. " "I love you, too, Dad. "
