I am Jerry. When I was a child. My father bought a farm. This place was my {#blank#}1{#/blank#}. Every summer holiday my friends and I {#blank#}2{#/blank#}  to the farm. We enjoyed our time {#blank#}3{#/blank#} any homework.

    When I went to the farm for the {#blank#}4{#/blank#}time, I was only four years old. I could see lots of flowers. The farm had a big house. It had six rooms and a big kitchen. In the {#blank#}5{#/blank#}  room there was a beautiful fireplace, which gave us warmness in winter.

    Around the house there were trees. They were big and very old. They {#blank#}6{#/blank#} very green in the summertime. They gave beautiful shade. It was {#blank#}7{#/blank#}  when I walked under the trees. Many birds' songs made me feel {#blank#}8{#/blank#}.

    My favorite time on the farm was the quiet night. When there was the moon, I enjoyed looking at the stars {#blank#}9{#/blank#} . I spent a lot of time after dinner talking with {#blank#}10{#/blank#} parents. We would sit outside of the house under the beautiful sky and tell old stories.

    Most students in our school love sports. Every morning after we get to school, we {#blank#}1{#/blank#} for about ten minutes. After the second class, we do morning exercises. We only have a {#blank#}2{#/blank#}lesson twice a week. Basketball is very {#blank#}3{#/blank#}. Most boys and girls like it. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}popular sport is football. Some boys often {#blank#}5{#/blank#} soccer on the playground. Some other students like to play tennis on sunny days. We have school basketball, football and tennis {#blank#}6{#/blank#}. They often play {#blank#}7{#/blank#} teams from other schools. When there's a game, many of us go to watch it and {#blank#}8{#/blank#} on our team players.

    Some of us like track-and-field(田径) events. And we often {#blank#}9{#/blank#}running and jumping. Sports help us keep {#blank#}10{#/blank#} and make us happy. There's going to be a sports meet next month in our school. We can't wait for it.

    Dominic is my neighbour. He lives in the flat {#blank#}1{#/blank#}. He moved in about two months ago. I've never seen him or spoken to him and I didn't know his name until last week. I'm a typical British neighbour-I don't need to  {#blank#}2{#/blank#}my neighbours.

    Dominic plays the guitar. Well, actually he's learning to play the guitar. Every evening he comes home and plays the guitar. For an hour. Or maybe two. Sometimes it continues through the night. And sometimes he sings  {#blank#}3{#/blank#}. I can hear his voice clearly. In fact he's got quite a good voice. But he isn't a good guitarist.

    Now, I'm a  {#blank#}4{#/blank#}person. I enjoy music. And Dominic is learning to play the guitar. I really can't ask him to quit playing his favourite instrument, So I tolerate(容忍)his music, his guitar and his singing.
