Dear Andrew, I write this letter to tell you something exciting. We had a sports meeting in our school last Friday!

    At about 8: 00 am, all the students arrived at the playground. I took part in the first event-the 100-metre race. Steve got first place. My classmate David took part in the long jump and Lisa took part in the high jump.

    The tug-of-war(拔河) between Class Three and Class One was the most interesting event in the morning. It was at 11: 00 am. And Class Three won it. The events in the afternoon were the 400-metre race, bicycle race, basketball game and tennis game. My classmate Maria took part in the 400-metre race. But she fell down and could not move. Frank is the best basketball player in our school. He helped his team win the basketball game.

    The sports meeting ended at 5: 00 pa/8All of the students were excited. We looked forward to the next sports meeting in our school.

Hello! My name is Van Ness. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}! I am wearing a white and black shirt, and there is a black hat on my head.

I have a cool trailer(旅行拖车). I live(居住) in it so{#blank#}2{#/blank#}. I got it from my father. I like to call it "Harlow". The color of the trailer is white. It's very big, and it is about seven meters(米) long.

{#blank#}3{#/blank#}. The bed is not very big.

Under it are some boxes, and my clothes are all in them. A brown table is also in the trailer{#blank#}4{#/blank#}. A white sofa is next to the table. It's my favorite place in the trailer. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}

I am a painter(画家) .

Jay and Joan like to spend {#blank#}1{#/blank#}the winter holiday with their mum and dad. This morning they were all going sledding (滑雪橇).There was a heavy{#blank#}2{#/blank#} snow last night. The hill at the park was great for sledding. Jay and Joan asked their parents to take them out .Their parents agreed(同意).

They all put on{#blank#}3{#/blank#} warm clothes and boots (靴子).They brought hot drinks{#blank#}4{#/blank#}, put the sleds in the car and drove to{#blank#}5{#/blank#} the park.

Jay and his dad went down the hill on one sled. Joan and her mum went down on the other sled. They went fast{#blank#}6{#/blank#}. The snow flew on their faces{#blank#}7{#/blank#}. They laughed and laughed. Sledding was fun.

After playing for two hours，they took a short break. They wanted to have a hot drink to get out of{#blank#}8{#/blank#} the cold，so they went into a warm house. They talked about{#blank#}9{#/blank#} their fun day there.

Soon it was time to go back{#blank#}10{#/blank#} home. Jay and Joan were very happy today.

You never know where life will lead you. When I was a young boy, I got 1 up my nose one time. After that I 2 wanted to get in the water again. I thought swimming was not for me. One day, I 3 my skateboard and broke my leg so badly, and the doctors said I could never really skateboard again. They said swimming was the only 4 that would be good for me. Well, I gave it a 5 . Every week, I got a little 6 and hated swimming a little less. I worked at it so much that one day my high school swimming coach asked me to 7 the school team. You can imagine how that made me and my family feel 8 I was so afraid of the water before! Much to everyone's surprise, I won third place in the city finals. 9 is a big part of my life now. You never know which road life will take you down. Look at me — a swimmer! For this reason, I say: don't limit(限制) your 10 . And remember, life is a swimming pool. Jump in and start swimming! You might be surprised at where you end up.
