What was supposed to be {#blank#}1{#/blank#} fun climb became a test of friendship for two young people from Canada last Saturday. Jeremy Savage and Ian Marshall, both aged 17, went {#blank#}2{#/blank#} {#blank#}3{#/blank#}no problems.

    However, trouble began when they started the climb down the mountain. On one very {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (danger) part of the path, Ian fell three meters off the side of the path. Jeremy was able to climb down to where Ian was. Ian was {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (bad) injured and could not move. They had to wait and {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (hope) that someone would come and help them. As the evening grew {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (dark), Ian told Jeremy to leave him and go back to their parents, but he still did not leave. Jeremy thought {#blank#}8{#/blank#} was not safe for Ian to be alone. The night was cold and windy, and Jeremy used his jacket and extra shirt to keep Ian warm.

    At sunrise, Jeremy decided that the only way {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (help) his friend was to carry him. So they started the long climb back to their parents. Finally, after four hours, they arrived at the campsite {#blank#}10{#/blank#} their parents were waiting, “I'll always remember what Jeremy did for me.” said Ian. “He saved my life.”

    A reporter from Jiangsu Province went to Australia and some other countries with his father for a 3-month trip. His father spent most of his life {#blank#}1{#/blank#}（work）in the field. The son started the {#blank#}2{#/blank#}（amaze）trips with his father around the world  because the farmer father {#blank#}3{#/blank#}（get）cancer—a serious illness.

    The reporter wanted to  take his father to travel，{#blank#}4{#/blank#}（hope）that his father can  find his younger self in his last days. They travelled more than 13,000 kilometers and took over 110, 000 {#blank#}5{#/blank#}（picture）on their trips to {#blank#}6{#/blank#}（difference）countries. Well，a miracle(奇迹) happened  during the “rebirth” trips. To their surprise，{#blank#}7{#/blank#}（he）father got better from illness and became more openhearted.

    He even taught himself to play {#blank#}8{#/blank#} violin，and then {#blank#}9{#/blank#}（gradual） he played it very  well，{#blank#}10{#/blank#}encouraged him a lot. Now he is expecting another trip to Africa. He is the most stylish dad ever.

    Time carves(雕刻) his face but youth flows in his blood. This is the real style.

    The Isle of Man lies in the Irish Sea, between the north of England {#blank#}1{#/blank#} Ireland. It {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (become) separated from Britain and Ireland by 6500 BC. It is a{#blank#}3{#/blank#} (self-govern) dependency （属地） of Britain, and its parliament {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (date) back to Viking times over a thousand years village{#blank#}5{#/blank#}There are 22 local authorities on the Isle of Man, consisting {#blank#}6{#/blank#} 4 town, 2 district, 2 village and 14 parish authorities. However, the British government has final authority and the Queen is Head of State. The Isle of Man has{#blank#}7{#/blank#} own currency and a very low rate of tax, so it is popular with rich people and banks and financial businesses. Road-racing is very popular and attracts{#blank#}8{#/blank#} (thousand) of visitors, especially to the motorcycle races in May and June. A type of cat{#blank#}9{#/blank#} (find) on the island, called “Manx” cat, is famous for having no tail. The {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (office) symbol of the Isle of Man, used on the flag, is a circle with three legs attached.

    Currently， both women and men {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(surround) by magazines and websites full of tips about dieting， exercise and fashion. Gone are the days {#blank#}2{#/blank#} all men had to think about wearing a nice suit to be smart and handsome. Things have changed.

    Now， a survey has suggested that 80% of men admit {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (be) unhappy about their body. The biggest body issues for {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (they) were beer bellies and lack of muscles. Some think it is because {#blank#}5{#/blank#} the pressure of influence of role models we see on TV and in magazines. People end up with a perception of {#blank#}6{#/blank#} the perfect body should look like. But not everybody wants to put in the effort to have perfect muscles like Arnold Schwarzenegger. An opportunistic designer has even invented a muscle­enhancing shirt {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(make) the buyer look more of a strong man．

    But Joe Warner，the former editor of Men's Fitness magazine， thinks the muscle­enhancing shirt is just {#blank#}8{#/blank#} trick. He thinks many people in the country are overweight and should accept they need to do more exercise {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(regular)．Exercise is always good. But we mustn't forget beauty is only skin deep. Character is {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (important) than appearance.

    On May 9, James Givens was sitting in the car when he{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(hear) what sounded like a knock. He turned around only{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(find) a goose pecking (啄) at the car door. This was highly unusual given that the birds normally preferred to observe humans from a{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(distant).

But on this day, the goose appeared to be determined to get his attention and didn't stop pecking{#blank#}4{#/blank#}Givens opened the car door and stepped out .Though the bird then began to walk away,{#blank#}5{#/blank#}kept turning around to make sure he was following. When they finally stopped, Givens realized{#blank#}6{#/blank#}the mother goose did so— she needed help to free her baby goose that had got{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(trap) in some balloon string.

    Worried that the mother goose would attack him if he got close{#blank#}8{#/blank#}the baby, Givens called the local SPCA chapter. Unfortunately, they were{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(able) to help right away. Concerned that the baby goose would not survive the delay, Givens decided to take on the task himself.

    The mother goose watched{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(patient) as Givens saved the little bird. As soon as the little goose was free, it ran to its mom. Givens said this was the most unforgettable incident in his life!
