That cold January night, I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco. There I was walking home at I am in the morning after a tiring practice at the theatre. With opening night only a week away,I was still learning my lines(台词). I was having trouble dealing with my part- time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco. City life had become too much for me.
As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away any possible robbers(强盗). Very few people were still out except a few sad- looking homeless people under blankets(毯子).
About a block from my apartment, I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the sidewalk.
Suddenly I wasn't cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back to where I'd heard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.
Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck pull up to the sidewalk next to me. When a voice called from the inside," Alisa Camacho?"I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened, and out jumped a small red- haired man with a cheerful look in his eyes." Is this what you' re looking for?" he asked, holding up a small square shape.
It was nearly 3 am by the time I got into bed. I wouldn't get much sleep that night, but I had got my wallet back. I also had got back some enjoyment of city life.
There was a terrible rainstorm last night. Now the Hills are talking about what they were doing at the time of the rainstorm.
Eric | I was watching my favorite cartoon on TV. Suddenly, the lights went out and it began to rain heavily. I was so scared that I ran to get into my bed. Then I heard my mom shouting, "Don't be afraid, my son. I'm coming soon. " |
Mrs. Hill | I was doing the dishes. I quickly stopped and ran to close all the windows. I was looking around when I heard my son crying. So I ran to help him. |
Rosa | I was washing my hair while the rain was beating against the windows. Suddenly, it got dark. I was afraid and didn't know what to do. Luckily, my dad came and asked me to get back to my bedroom. Then he went out of the house to see what was happening. |
Mr. Hill | I was writing a report on the computer. Two days ago, I listened to the Weather Report. But I didn't think it would come so suddenly. I quickly stood up and walked around to see if everything was OK. My family might be in trouble. So I went to help them. |

Simple tips on ROAD TRIP PREPARATION Preparing a road trip can be tiring. There are a few things you can do to make it a success. | |
①SERVICE YOUR CAR Keep your car running well by getting an oil change before you head out on the road. Check the tires (轮胎) too! You'll save yourself a headache later on. | ③TAKE THINGS TO DO While road trips are definitely (确定地) about the destination (目的地), make sure you pack things for your kids to do to kill the time. At least for an hour or two. It will stop them from complaining all the time. |
②DON'T FORGET THE SNACKS The only thing worse than "Are we there yet?" is "I'm hungry!" every 2 minutes. So pack snacks. Lots of snacks. | ④STOP FREQUENTLY Half of the road trip is getting there. There is nothing fun about getting to your destination completely exhausted (筋疲力尽的). Stop at cool places, get some fresh air and take a look around. |
