It was a {#blank#}1{#/blank#}  day during the summer holiday. My mother and I got on the bus to my grandma's village. It was {#blank#}2{#/blank#}  dry that I was really thirsty. I began to think of the sweet watermelons and other {#blank#}3{#/blank#}  in Grandma's house. I could hardly wait to arrive there.
{#blank#}4{#/blank#}  took us two hours to get there . Grandma brought out a big watermelon and cut it. It was nice to eat the watermelon {#blank#}5{#/blank#}  such a hot day.

    Look!This is our school．There are{#blank#}1{#/blank#} buildings here．There is a library,an office building，a classroom building，a dining hall，a sports hall and a science building．This is our playground．{#blank#}2{#/blank#} is in the middle of the school．And this is our library．{#blank#}3{#/blank#}it is the office building．The classroom building is{#blank#}4{#/blank#}．The dining hall is on the{#blank#}5{#/blank#}of it．In front of the dining hall is the sports hall and the science building．

    John Allen, an American scientist once said, "The{#blank#}1{#/blank#}is the world's largest library, but all the {#blank#}2{#/blank#}in it are on the floor!" What he meant is that the Internet is full of information. But it can be difficult to find what you really need. The Internet has another disadvantage. That is--anyone can{#blank#}3{#/blank#}a website, so you can find websites about whatever you can imagine. Unfortunately, a lot of what is written on them is not always{#blank#}4{#/blank#}.

    At the same time, the Internet {#blank#}5{#/blank#}many other things for people.

    On some websites, you can download music and films. They are usually{#blank#}6{#/blank#}and some are even free. On some other websites, you can connect with{#blank#}7{#/blank#}from all over the world. It's true that the Internet has changed the way we work and communicate. But we should not{#blank#}8{#/blank#}it too much. Some people are also afraid that{#blank#}9{#/blank#}the Internet has taken the place of other healthier activities, especially for young people.

    Whether you love it or{#blank#}10{#/blank#}it, though, you'd better get used to it but not avoid getting in touch with it.
