One morning，I was waiting at the bus stop，worried about{#blank#}1{#/blank#}  (be) late for school.

    There were many people waiting there， {#blank#}2{#/blank#}   some of them looked very anxious and{#blank#}3{#/blank#} (disappoint)．When the bus finally came，we all hurried on board.I got a place next{#blank#}4{#/blank#} the window，so I had a good view of the sidewalk.A boy on a bike{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (catch) my attention.He was riding beside the bus and waving his arms.I heard a passenger behind me shouting to the driver，but he refused{#blank#}6{#/blank#}  (stop) until we reached the next stop.Still，the boy kept{#blank#}7{#/blank#}  (ride)．He was carrying something over his shoulder and shouting.Finally，when we came to the next stop，the boy ran up to the door of the bus.I heard an exciting conversation.Then the driver stood up and asked，“{#blank#}8{#/blank#}  anyone lose a suitcase at the last stop？”A woman on the bus shouted，“Oh，dear！It's {#blank#}9{#/blank#} ．”She pushed her ways to the driver and took the suitcase thankfully.Everyone on the bus began talking about what the boy had done，and the crowd of strangers{#blank#}10{#/blank#} (sudden) became friendly to one another.

    We may be very {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (please ) with the rapid progress we have made in every field of study , but we have almost done nothing {#blank#}2{#/blank#} ( improve ) our present examination systems which focus  {#blank#}3{#/blank#} testing the students' memory instead of their ability . As soon as a child begins school , he enters a world of examination  {#blank#}4{#/blank#} will decide his future of job . In fact , a good examination system should encourage students to think for {#blank#}5{#/blank#} ( they ) . But the examination system now forces the students to remember {#blank#}6{#/blank#} is taught to get high marks . Thus the students who come out first in the examination are often the {#blank#}7{#/blank#} ( good ) in memorizing . What's worse , such an examination system often  {#blank#}8{#/blank#} ( drive ) teachers to cram all the time and forces them to train students what to do with the ( {#blank#}9{#/blank#} ( come ) examination .

    There must be {#blank#}10{#/blank#} better way to test a student's true ability as well as their knowledge .

    “Can I have a glass of hot water?” This is a very common question for Chinese customers in a restaurant. But {#blank#}1{#/blank#} you go abroad, you may find that meals in the West tend to come with tall glasses of ice water.

    For most Chinese people,{#blank#}2{#/blank#} (drink) hot water is part of everyday life. It is believed that water of a warm temperature (25-30 C) is good for people's health,{#blank#}3{#/blank#} (especial) for the stomach.

    But for many Western people, they drink cold water even in winter. One possible reason is {#blank#}4{#/blank#} in Western countries people can drink water directly from the tap, rather than having to boil {#blank#}5{#/blank#}. And it's also normal to jump into a cold shower after exercise,{#blank#}6{#/blank#} (bring) the heart rate down.

    However, there is one common thing {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(encourage) in both the East and the West: One {#blank#}8{#/blank#} cool down by drinking a hot drink in summer. Because sweating is a good way to cool off in summer, hot drinks make you hotter and you begin to sweat.

    Of course, it doesn't matter if you drink hot {#blank#}9{#/blank#} cold water. The more comfortable your body feels, the {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(good) it is.

    Although I {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (grow) up not in the South, but in northern Wisconsin, there are memories that are{#blank#}2{#/blank#} same. We can all think about the past if those memories give {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (we) the strength to live today. Though today is a present and a gift, the {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (memory) of our families give us the strength to appreciate this "present". Those memories of my childhood home, across the street from Grandpa and Grandma's home, bring memories of{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (eat) ice cream cones and swinging on the front porch swing and singing country songs  {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (happy). There are memories of my dad reading the newspaper and mom, wearing her apron and making doughnuts in the kitchen. Pictures of the family all around are just like I have today in my home. My dad was a quiet man,{#blank#}7{#/blank#} never bought or borrowed anything unless he could afford it. My aunt lived in the bedroom upstairs and sang Polish and country songs with me. My brother is remembered {#blank#}8{#/blank#} my childhood friend when we played in the backyard. These memories are{#blank#}9{#/blank#} (root) in my heart and run deep. These memories give me {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (strong) to carry on the family values. These memories give me a "common" and "solid" ground in my life.

Dear Li Kang,

    I'm exciting to tell you about the American school system. Secondary school in the US usually covered seven years, grades six to twelve. At the end of twelfth grade, American student receive the high school diploma. Students need a high school diploma if they want to go to the college.

    The school year is dividing into two semesters, the first of that is September through December, and the second January through May. We have a long summer vacation! We start school in 7: 50 am and we finish at 3 pm.

    I take part in many amazed after­school activities—I play football, basketball, volleyball, table tennis and I went to theater club.

    Will you tell me something about your summer vacation and the Chinese school system in your next letter?

    Looking forward hearing from you soon.

    Rob Marshall
