One day an old woman was traveling alone in the mountains. Suddenly she saw something shining in the stream. When she came close, she found it was a precious stone. She put the stone into her bag and went on with her trip.

The next day the old woman met a young man, who was also a traveler in the mountains. The young man looked very hungry, so the old woman opened her bag to share her food. The hungry traveler saw the precious stone and asked carefully, “The stone is beautiful. Would you like to give it to me?”

“Sure. Why not?” the woman said, and handed the stone to him.

The young man left happily with the stone. He knew it was worth enough to give him security for a lifetime. But a few days later he came back to return the stone to the woman.

“I’ve been thinking,” he said. “I know how valuable the stone is, but I give it back and hope that you can give me something even more precious. Give me what you have within your bag.”

The woman opened her bag. It was almost empty. She looked at the young man and smiled, “I have nothing special in my bag, but I do have something precious — the joy of giving!”

Last summer, after finishing my work in China, 1 took the trip of a lifetime on the Trans-Siberian Railway (西伯利亚路). Leaving Beijing early on a Wednesday morning in July, my wife and I travelled through some awesome (令人惊叹) countryside before we arrived in Moscow the following Monday.          

The first part of the journey took us past the Great Wall and through the grasslands of Inner Mongolia. At the Mongolian Republic border, we had a delay(耽搁)while the wheels were changed because the railway is different. 

On our way to the capital, Ulan Bator, we saw herdsmen (牧人) on horseback looking after their cattle. There was a great thunderstorm as we crossed a vast open plain. Later we had a quick tour of Ulan Bator. 

Next, the train took us into Siberia. After a stop at Irkutsk, a popular holiday resort(度假胜地), where a tour group left the train, we passed the great Lake Baikal. Later, we saw some lovely wooden houses in pretty, sunny countryside. This surprised us, as we had imagined Siberia as being covered with thick snow. 

Over the next few days, we passed through Novosibirsk, Omsk and other cities in the heartlands of the Russian Federation. By now, our body clocks were losing their sense of time.  We wanted to sleep and eat at the wrong time! 

At last we reached Moscow. We were so tired that we slept for 16 hours that night. The next day we went sightseeing. We saw the Dremlin and some other magnificent (宏伟的) buildings in the Russian capital. Then, all too soon, it was time for us to return to our home in London.

A. Three.                           B. Four.                  C. Seven.          D. Six.

There are similarities and differences between high school life and college life.

For one thing, there are several similarities between high school life and college life. First, the most important task in high school and college is both studying. Studying is the most important as a student. Second, we need a goal to fight for in both high school life and college life. To lead a meaningful life, we have to set up a goal to achieve.

For another, there are also some differences between high school life and college life. First, our studying is also the biggest difference. In high school, we are required to follow our teachers' steps and finish their homework every day. While in college, there are no teachers  giving  such  detailed requirements to us and we can choose study or not according to our own willing. What and how to study totally depends on us. Therefore, the ability of self-control is very important in college life. Second, the flexibility (灵活性) of time is another difference. In high school, we have no much leisure (空闲) except for our time of study. However, in college, we have much leisure controlled by ourselves except the time of classes, and we have more time to do what we like. Finally, college life is much more various and rich. Besides study, we can attend many other activities, which make our college life more wonderful.

    In short, there are both similarities and differences between high school life and college life. However, no matter which period we are in, we need to make full use of every day so that we will never feel regretful.

Last summer my family and I was on holiday in Morocco in the Sahara Desert. We had the good time there. By the time we just arrived, I see the strangest sight I had ever seen. When we got to there, it was already dark. We had a delicious meal while watch some traditionally oroccan dancing before we went to bed. The next morning I work up early and went a walk. I walked for a few minute and then I saw a big swimming pool right in the middle of the desert! I couldn’t believe mine eyes. It was really amazed to me!
