    Dean felt his arms and legs were burning. With each breath, Dean wondered if he should be done, but as he touched the wall at the end of the pool he turned for another lap (圈). "I can do one more. This is for Kevin," Dean told himself. He was starting his seventh lap.

    Dean and the other members of his swim team were swimming to raise money for Dean's best friend, Kevin Hawking. Earlier in the year, Kevin fell ill. He needed expensive medical care that his family couldn't afford. After Kevin's friends learned what was happening, they started brainstorming ways to help. Several of Kevin's friends were on the swim team, which led to the idea of swimming.

    For a month, Dean and the other swim team members had asked for pledges (承诺) from anyone who would help: family members, friends, and neighbours. Most people pledged a dollar or two each lap. Dean's grandmother said she would offer $ 10 for each lap Dean swam!

    Finally, as Dean completed his tenth lap, he knew he was too tired to keep going. If I try another lap. I'll end up lying in the middle of the pool, waiting for someone to come and get me, he thought. Dean pulled himself up onto the edge of the pool and sat breathing quickly for a couple of minutes, quietly resting before he tried to stand.

    Dean's father came over and said, "Wow, Dean," shaking his head in amazement, "I am so proud of you. That's farther than anyone else has swum today, and I know it's farther than you've ever swum before."

    Dean stood up and slowly walked with his father back to the seats where the other swimmers sat next to Kevin. "Thank you," Kevin said.

    "It's no big deal. I know you'd do the same for me," Dean said.

It was a lovely spring afternoon. My classmates and I were playing happily on the playground when I let out a cry, "Ow! Ow! Something in my shoe is biting me."

Everyone was shocked by the cry. They took me into a classroom and were about to take off my1 . "Which foot is it?" One asked "let us have a look."

Suddenly, I remembered the holes in 2 socks. My family was very poor during those years. I wore welfare socks, which cost only a little, but those 3 welfare socks didn't last long. They soon had 4 at the bottom.

I refused to take off my shoe. I 5 stand others seeing the holes in my sock. I tried to hold back my tears. Yet, each time the thing 6 my shoe bit me, tears raced down my face.

My teacher, Miss Diane, hurried into the 7 , "What's wrong? " She asked.

"Something is biting her right foot, 8 she doesn't let us take off her shoe," One of my classmates answered.

Miss Diane lived next door to me. She 9 everything about my family. She put both hands on my shaking shoulders and 10 into my painful and hopeless eyes.

"Oh, yes, it must be a sock-eating ant," She said, as if she had 11 seen the thing inside the shoe. "I had a bite from one of those ants. By the time I got my shoe off, it had 12 almost the whole bottom off my sock." My classmates nodded while they were listening to the teacher 13 , although they all looked a little puzzled.

Miss Diane took off my right shoe and sock and shook them over the dustbin. Two red ants 14 it.

"Just what I thought. The ants have eaten part of her sock." When she stroked an alcohol cotton ball on the bites, she added, "You are such a 15 girl to take so many bites."

The alcohol felt cool on the bites and a little girl's pride was saved by the "sock-eating ant " story.

When you are tired of buildings, you can visit one of London's beautiful parks. 

Hyde Park first opened to the people of London in the seventeenth century. It is not far from the shops of busy Oxford Street, but it is nice and quiet. In the center is the lake called the Serpentine, and you can take a boat out on the water. 

There are usually a lot of people at Speakers' Corner. Some people come here because they want to tell the world important or interesting things—about the government, science, or "the end of the world". They stand at the Corner, and call out to all the people around them. Other people stand and listen, and sometimes laugh too. 

Kensington Gardens is next to Hyde Park. Here you can see a statue(雕像)of Peter Pan, the famous boy in the book Peter Pan written by J. M. Barrie. There is also a playground here, called the Diana, Princess of Wales Memorial Playground. And the playground has lots of exciting things for children. 

Regent's Park is the home of London Zoo. The zoo opened in 1828, and it has animals from all over the world. There is also a theatre in the park. On a summer's evening, you can sit out and watch a play created by Shakespeare. Or you can see the park from the water—take a boat along the canal(运河)from Camden Lock to Little Venice. In the summer, you can listen to music in the park. 

St James's Park is next to the Mall. It is a small park, but very beautiful, and it is the oldest of the royal(皇家)parks. Lots of birds live on and around the lake in the centre of the park.

A daughter graduated from college. Her father planned to teach her a 1 . He said to her," My darling, you have grown up. Now I'm considering 2 my car, and can you help me get a good price for it?" The daughter agreed. Then the father asked her to take the car to 3 places and then choose the best 4 .

The daughter knew that her father's car was a good one. She was 5 that the car was worth a good price although it looked pretty old. She went to the first place—a used car market, and they offered her $1,000. Then in a pawn(典当) shop, she was told the car was worth just $200, which really 6 the daughter. Finally, she went to a car club. The workers there told the daughter 7 that the car was very hard to 8 in the market because it had been no longer in production and that they wanted to buy the car any time at $50,000 and even more.

The daughter told these 9 to her father. The father said," Don't be surprised. The value of the car is different in different places. Only the right place can give you the right value. Therefore, if you are not appreciated(赏识) by someone, do not be angry. It just means you are in the 10 place. You should move on and go to a better place where you can certainly go far."
