    Most people like holidays(假日). During(在……期间)the holidays，they go to many different {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (place)to see interesting things and meet many different people. They can learn a lot {#blank#}2{#/blank#} that.

    Frank is a student and {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (come ) from New York，America. During the last winter holiday，he went to Beijing for his holiday. First，he went to his penfriend Wang Heng's home and {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (live)in his home. The next morning，they went to the Great Wall {#blank#}5{#/blank#}bus. It was great. They took many {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (photo) on the Great Wall. In the afternoon，they went to Tian'anmen Square. In the evening，they went to a restaurant to eat the Peking Duck. The next day, Frank {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(visit)Wang Heng's school. All the students in the school were friendly {#blank#}8{#/blank#}him. Frank made some new {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (friend) there. He wanted {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (go) to Beijing again.

    I was 18 years old when I lost my father in a car accident in July, 2000.At the end of that summer, I had planned to take an {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(importance)exam to the engineering school. I wanted {#blank#}2{#/blank#} study engineering so much and I was very good {#blank#}3{#/blank#}Maths. My best friend Rob was also going to take the same exam in September. We'd like to imagine that {#blank#}4{#/blank#} we both became engineers, and that we could do many projects together. We knew that the whole world was {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(wait) for us. But that was before my father died. Rob called me from time to time to encourage me to study. I had always said "yes", but deep down in my heart. I knew I stopped {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(believe)in myself. On the day of the exam, I didn't attend the exam.

    But later, I regretted(后悔).I thought no one would care about me after my father died. But at least there was still one person：{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(I).I shouldn't have let the chance pass by. I should have tried. I could not change my father's {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(die), but I could change my attitude. Losing a chance without trying is {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(bad)than losing a loved one.

    Since then, I've grasped each chance to everything that I have, and I {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(get)my master degree in engineering in 2008.

Sports in secondary schools

    All pupils in the UK have. PE at school until they are 16. At school, football is {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(popular) than any other sport, played by girls and boys. Here is {#blank#}2{#/blank#}pupils think about sports.

    My favourite {#blank#}3{#/blank#}at school is PE. I like team sports, {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(especial) basketball. I pay {#blank#}5{#/blank#}the school team on Saturdays. (Blake, 15)

    I like dancing in the gym, {#blank#}6{#/blank#}I hate doing sports outside in winter when the weather is cold and wet. (Megan, 14)

    I think PE is{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(bore) and I'm not good at any sport. I like playing computer games {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(well). (Jared, 17)

    I play football for our school team and I love it. We train after school and play {#blank#}9{#/blank#}teams from other schools every week. (Drew, 16)

    We all disliked our school PE kit. The T-shirt and shorts were so old-fashioned! So our school had a competition to design a new PE kit and my design {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(win) first prize! (Ella, 15)
