Swimming is very popular in summer. People like swimming in summer because water {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (make) people fell cool. If you like swimming and swim {#blank#}2{#/blank#} a wrong place, it may not be safe(安全的).Last summer, more than ten people died while they were {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (enjoy) themselves in the water, and {#blank#}4{#/blank#} of them were students. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}some people are still not careful in swimming. They often think they swim so well that {#blank#}6{#/blank#} can happen to them in water. Summer is coming again. If you go swimming in summer, don't forget that better swimmers have died in water. They {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (die) only because they were not {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (care), not because they could not swim. So don't get into water when you go swimming yourself, go with your teachers or your parents. If there are "No {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (swim)" sign, don't get into water, either. If you remember these, swimming will be {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (safe).

How did artists learn English? Here are two examples.

A famous Chinese actress {#blank#}1{#/blank#} Zhang Ziyi had a small part in the American movie Rush Hour 2with Jackie Chan. The role was difficult for her because she wasn't {#blank#}2{#/blank#} to speak English. Chan had to translate everything from Chinese into English for her.

After Rush Hour 2, Zhang studied English in New York. She not {#blank#}3{#/blank#} watched television but also listened to music in English. She {#blank#}4{#/blank#} attention to practice pronouncing words and tried to get them right. Then she found it easy to speak English well {#blank#}5{#/blank#}doing so. Zhang's biggest challenge came when she played the leading role in the film Memoirs of a Geisha. A friend told Zhang, {#blank#}6{#/blank#} will be difficult to express your feelings in English." But she took the part and studied even {#blank#}7{#/blank#}

Shakira is a Colombian singer and songwriter. Many people wanted to translate her songs from Spanish into English. Shakira agreed, {#blank#}8{#/blank#} she felt nervous about losing control of her music. Then she decided to write her own songs in English. Shakira wanted to know {#blank#}9{#/blank#} to use English to express feelings as well, so she also read newspapers and poetry.

Today, Shakira writes and plays her music {#blank#}10{#/blank#} both Spanish and English for fans around the world.

There was a park near my home. But I didn't go there very often because many people said there was nothing special. One afternoon I went into the park. I walked quickly because there wasn't much to see. I walked for some time and found myself standing in front of two paths（小路）, " ▲ " I asked myself. I looked at one path, and then the other. I found that the two paths were different from each other. 

The left one was wide and clean. There were lots of flowers on both sides of the path. Though the flowers weren't very beautiful, they made me feel good. Then I looked at the right one. The path was different from the left one. It didn't look nice. It looked as if it had not been cleaned for months. For a long time, I couldn't decide which path to go along. 

After a while, a strange feeling made me follow the dirty path. It wasn't nice, but I didn't want to give up. At last, I came to the end of the path. To my surprise, there was a small garden. It was beautiful. I thought it was the nicest part of the park. 

Later, I told the others what I had seen in the park, but they just smiled at me without saying a word. I knew they didn't believe me. They couldn't even remember that path because it was so small. 

My trip to the park that day made me learn something about life. Don't be afraid to choose a different path. You may get a big surprise!
