    My bobby is singing English songs. When I was a child. I liked to sing very much. I remembered my mother {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(teach) me a nursery rhyme(儿歌) one day, “Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder what you are…”. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} I didn't quite understand the meaning, I remembered the words quickly because {#blank#}5{#/blank#}its end rhyme. Since then, I {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(fall) in love with English songs. I spend a lot of my pocket money {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(hunt) for English tapes.

    Whenever I am free, I will turn to my recorder and listen to my favorite songs. I even sing out with the recorder, {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (make) me forget my troubles for a while. At the same time I remembered a lot of classical songs, {#blank#}9{#/blank#} helps me to improve my English studies.

    It was a short flight from Shanghai to Xi' an. Xi' an is one of the four great ancient capitals of China{#blank#}1{#/blank#}over 3,100 years of history. Its ancient walls date from the Ming Dynasty and are the best {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (preserve) in the world. There are bicycles for people to hire. It is {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(amaze) to ride along the walls to survey this fascinating city.

    The Tang Dynasty Music and Dance show is not to be missed, but my favorite is an art gallery, {#blank#}4{#/blank#}we can enjoy some beautiful artwork and learn how to write Chinese characters.

    Most tourists make{#blank#}5{#/blank#}way to Xi' an to see the life-size terracotta warriors (兵马俑) and we were no  {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(difference). The collection, which shows the armies of the first Emperor of China, {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(remain) hidden until 1974 when they were discovered by a farmer sinking a well. Walking among the statues is forbidden unless you are a VIP — but there are plenty of souvenir{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(shop) in which tourists can buy the replicas(复制品)of them.

    All too soon it was time{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(leave). I really enjoyed my stay in Xi' an. It is indeed a place of interest worth{#blank#}10{#/blank#}second visit.

    One night, Mrs Riley,{#blank#}1{#/blank#} elderly woman was walking along a dark, London street. She was carrying her handbag in one hand and a plastic carrier bag in the other. There was nobody else in the street{#blank#}2{#/blank#}two youths. They were standing in a dark shop doorway. One of {#blank#}3{#/blank#}was very tall with fair hair while the other was short and fat with a beard.

    The youths waited for a few moments, and then ran quickly and {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (quiet) towards Mrs Riley. The tall youth held her from behind while the other youth tried {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(seize) her handbag.

    Suddenly, Mrs. Riley {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(throw) the tall youth over her shoulder. She crashed into the other youth and they both landed on the ground. Without {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(speak), Mrs. Riley struck both of them on the head with her handbag, and walked calmly away.

    The two{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(surprise) youths were still sitting on the ground when Mrs. Riley crossed the street towards a door, above {#blank#}9{#/blank#}there was a lighted sign. Mrs. Riley paused, turned round, smiled at the youths and walked {#blank#}10{#/blank#}the South West London Judo(柔道) Club.
