A man and his friend were walking through the desert. During the trip they had a quarrel and the man hit his friend in {#blank#}1{#/blank#} face. His friend was hurt, but {#blank#}2{#/blank#} saying anything, he wrote in the sand, “Today my best friend hit me in the face.”

They kept on {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(walk) until they found a lake, where they decided {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (take) a bath. The man's friend fell into the lake and was in a {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(danger) situation, but the man saved him{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(immediate). After he came back to life, he wrote on a{#blank#}7{#/blank#}:“Today my best friend saved my life."

    The man {#blank#}8{#/blank#}had hit and saved his best friend asked, “When I hurt you, you wrote in the sand and now, you wrote on a stone. Why?” His friend {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (reply), “ When someone hurts us, we should write it down in sand where wind can blow it away. However, when someone does something good for {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(we), we must write it down in stone where it can last for ever.”

It combines {#blank#}1{#/blank#} best bits of skiing and mountaineering and provides the perfect way {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (explore) the mountain in winter. The {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (advantage) of ski touring are that you can really escape the crowds, enjoy the peace of the mountains and {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (reward) with breathtaking views and exciting descents.

    Ski touring involves both going up and down the mountain; both of {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (they) present challenges and new skills are to be acquired. There is much to learn about getting up the mountain that improves efficiency and saves energy. {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (similar) ，you want to be prepared to enjoy going down, which means learning to deal with the variety of snow conditions you will face. Because all ski touring is very demanding, you must be {#blank#}7{#/blank#} good physical condition. The fitter you are, the {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (much) fun you will have.

    After World War I ended, {#blank#}3{#/blank#} peace conference was held by the United States, United Kingdom, Italy, France and Japan in Paris.

    Paul was a basketball player on the team, The lines. He loved basketball so much. Paul was shorter{#blank#}1{#/blank#} most basketball players; In fact, he was only 1.6 meters. One of his NBA favorite players was Tyrone Bogues who was also the{#blank#}2{#/blank#}height.

    Paul had to practice much harder than{#blank#}3{#/blank#}. Because of his height, he was always very determined and focused. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}, unfortunately, the coach never picked him for the team. Recently, Paul finally got{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(he) chance during a game{#blank#}6{#/blank#}The Lines' biggest competitor, The bears, a player on the team {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(injure) and Paul pleaded with the coach for a chance. The coach was unsure{#blank#}8{#/blank#}allowed him to play. Paul proved that he was skilled and talented {#blank#}9{#/blank#}scoring shot after shot. When the game ended, the coach told Paul that he{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(earn) his place on the team.

    Smell the flowers before you go to sleep and you may just end up with rosy dreams. Have a whiff of rotten(腐烂的)eggs during the night and your dreams may be {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(pleasant). So says researcher Dr. Boris Stuck, {#blank#}2{#/blank#}invited sleeping volunteers to a rose vs. rotten egg test in the University Hospital Mannheim in Germany. The subjects didn't dream about roses {#blank#}3{#/blank#}eggs, but rather he found that what they smelt affected the emotions of {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(they) dreams.

    And if you think {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(smell) have a say in dreams, wait for what TV tells us. A UK study reveals that people exposed {#blank#}6{#/blank#}black-and-white film and TV in their youth are to have monochromic(单色的)dreams throughout their life more {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(probable). Eva Murzyn from the University of Dundee tested two age groups— one half {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(age) over 55 and {#blank#}9{#/blank#}other half under 25.

    The result? Under 5% of the dreams of the under-25s were in black and white. {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(watch)color TV in childhood seems to be the reason why.
