In Africa, when the antelope（羚羊）wakes up every morning, the first thing {#blank#}1{#/blank#} comes into his mind is, “I must be able to run {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (fast) than the fastest lion,{#blank#}3{#/blank#} I will be killed by a lion.” And at just the same time, the lion{#blank#}4{#/blank#} (wake) out of his dream, and the first thingflashing into his mind is: “I must be able to catch up {#blank#}5{#/blank#} the slowest a ntelope, otherwise I will starve to{#blank#}6{#/blank#} (dead).” So almost at the same moment{#blank#}7{#/blank#} the antelope and the lion jump to their feet, and start{#blank#}8{#/blank#} (run) toward the rising sun.

    Such is life whether you are an antelope {#blank#}9{#/blank#} a lion, you ought to dash forward without hesitation when the sun {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (rise).

    It is the Thanksgiving Day . I have the strong desire to write about something to express my thanks to the people around me.

    I {#blank#}1{#/blank#} ( bring up ) by my grandparents {#blank#}2{#/blank#} are as kind and hardworking as thousands of Chinese peasants in a distant village. They worked in the field all day long and took good care of me as well .

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#} ( Honest) speaking, my parents are ordinary people. But I must say that they are great educators, {#blank#}4{#/blank#} they educated me to be an {#blank#}5{#/blank#} ( dependent ) and useful man to society.

    My teachers, selfless，generous, devote themselves to {#blank#}6{#/blank#} ( help)  each individual student achieve his/her ambition.

    Meanwhile , I can share my happiness and {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (sad) with my peer students .I am happy to be with them because we have much  {#blank#}8{#/blank#} common.

    I am {#blank#}9{#/blank#} luckiest and happiest person with all these loved {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (one) around.

    This weekend I was delighted to show my parents around Seville, as they {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(come) for a short but sweet visit. Although the weather wasn't the best, we still made {#blank#}2{#/blank#} best of our time together.

    Being reunited with the people you love in a new place {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(bring) excitement. Showing them around the new city makes you{#blank#}4{#/blank#} (extraordinary) happy. For example, as Seville is known for flamenco (弗拉门科舞), I took them to see a famous {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(perform) my friends recommended to me, which gave us such a wonderful visual feast. Furthermore, getting to show your visitors the places {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (appeal) to you is a pleasant feeling, because you are eager to let them know where you love to spend your time. You are letting them get involved{#blank#}7{#/blank#} your new life. Also you have the opportunity{#blank#}8{#/blank#} (show) your beloved ones the new places that they may fall in love with.

    So, after a two-day trip, I feel pleased to have had the time to explore those {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(attraction) with my parents. I am already looking forward to their next visit {#blank#}10{#/blank#}I can show them more of what Seville offers and what I am still yet to discover.

Then we began to help with the cooking. About an hour later, the food was ready, and we sat at the table enjoying the delicious food including fish and {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (vegetable). Finally we went to Ann's room where we watched our favourite TV programme together. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (decorate) with flowers and balloons, the room was warm and comfortable.
