    Many years ago I studied in a university in the biggest city in our country. It's beautiful but it's hot in summer. So I usually went back to my 1 when my summer holiday began. It is a small village but it's cool and quiet. I could study in the daytime and have a good sleep at night.

    One day I had some problems to solve. But I didn't take the 2 home. My father told me Charlie, one of my classmates, had a library. I went to his house at once. We didn't see each other after I 3 middle school. At first he didn't recognize(认出) me. He 4 me up and down. And then he called out, "oh, dear! It's you, Fred!"

    Of course we were 5 to meet each other again and talked a lot about our classmates and teachers. Later on he showed me around his library. It wasn't big but there were a lot of nice books in it. And the dictionaries I 6 were in them. At last I said, "7 you lend some dictionaries to me, please?"

    "I'm sorry I don't lend anything in my library to 8," said the young man.

    " Are you afraid I'll lose them?"

    " No, I'm not. I'm afraid you won't 9 them to me. Look! All the books here are not 10, but borrowed!"

—I am quite upset.

—Cheer up! The more you smile, the       you will be.

What I like most about my best friend

Lily Chen, Canada

    Kay is the most confident girl that I have ever met. She is really kind. It may surprise some people to find out Kay and I are best friends, because we are quite different. I'm not confident and I am very shy, but I think this is why we are such good friends.

Alan Cordoba, Mexico

She is also very intelligent and interesting. Sometimes she gets angry easily. She shouts at me for always being late.

Isabel Famosa, Cuba

    My best friend is Anna Hernandez. She is honest, kind and sensitive. We were born in the same city in Cuba. We spent a lot of time together until we were 12. Then, I moved to America with my family and thought that I would never see Anna again. When I went to college in New York, Anna had a room in the same building. She now lives near me in New Jersey and we see each other all the time.
