The Olympic Games are the {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(big) sports meeting in the world. There are two kinds of Olympic Games. One is the Summer Olympic Games, and the other is the Winter Olympic Games. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}of them are held every four years on a regular {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(base). All countries can take part if their athletes have reached the {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(agree) standard to the games. In the past women were not allowed to take part in the Olympic Games. Nowadays, women have a chance {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(play) an important role in the great games. Because of so many athletes, a special village is needed to build for {#blank#}6{#/blank#} to live in, {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(include) a main reception building, several stadiums for competitions, a large swimming pool, and seats for audience {#blank#}8{#/blank#}watch the games. It is a great honor to host the Olympic Games. In addition, for many countries it's just as much competition to host the Olympic Games {#blank#}9{#/blank#} to win Olympic medals. Nowadays, the olive wreath has been replaced by medals. But it's still about being able to run {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(fast), jump higher and throw farther.

    When I was a little girl, every time my dad was repairing something, he {#blank#}1{#/blank#}ask me to hold the hammer, and meanwhile, have a conversation with me. I never saw my dad drinking or taking a night out. All he did after work was taking care of his family.

    I grew up and left home for college and since then, my dad had been calling me every Sunday morning, no matter what. Several years later I bought a house, {#blank#}2{#/blank#} my dad painted by himself for three days in the 80-degree summer heat. All he asked was for me to talk to him. But I was always busy, {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(able) to find any time for conversation with him.

    One Sunday morning we had a telephone talk as usual. I noticed that my dad had {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(forget) some things we discussed {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(late). I was in a hurry, so our conversation was short. Later that day came a call {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (say) my father was in hospital. Immediately I bought a ticket for a flight and on my way I was thinking about all the {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (miss) occasions to have{#blank#}8{#/blank#}talk with my dad.

    {#blank#}9{#/blank#}the time I got to hospital, my father had passed away. Now it was {#blank#}10{#/blank#}who did not have time for a conversation with me. I realized how little I know about my dad, his deepest thoughts and dreams. After his death I learned more about him, and even more about myself.

    Last weekend our school held a sports meeting. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (realize) it was our last high school sports meeting, we decided to make {#blank#}2{#/blank#} an unforgettable experience for all of us.

    We first attended the opening parade, for {#blank#}3{#/blank#} our class had made a lot of {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (prepare). To our excitement, our parade performance was a great success. After the parade, the games started. My classmates attended {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (vary) events such as running, high jump and long jump. Due to the hard training they {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (do) before, their performances were very {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (impress). On the stand, my classmates applauded and cheered for the athletes, some raising their cameras to capture the exciting moments. Finally, the result{#blank#}8{#/blank#} (announce). It was{#blank#}9{#/blank#} (amaze) that our class won the second place. Our efforts paid off! Cup in hand, we took a picture together.

    I believe this sports meeting will remain a precious memory for all of us {#blank#}10{#/blank#} time goes by.

    There are various reasons {#blank#}1{#/blank#} people write poems. Some poems tell a story or describe something in a way that will give the reader a strong {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (impress). Others attempt {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (convey) certain emotions. Poets use different forms of poetry to express {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (they). For example, the language of nursery rhymes is concrete but {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (imagine). And list poems have repeated phrases which give both a pattern {#blank#}6{#/blank#} a rhythm to the poem. Another simple form of poem is the cinquain, which {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (make) up of five lines and can express strong feelings in just a few words. And of course there are Tang poems from China which you may enjoy {#blank#}8{#/blank#} particular. With so many different {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (form) of poetry to choose from, students may {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (eventual) want to write poems of their own.
