Going to Mount Huangshan reminds me of the popular Beatles' song"The Long and Winding Road". ____56____is so breathtaking about the experience is the out-of-this-world scenes. The rolling sea of clouds you see once you are at the top will remind you how tiny we ____57____(human) are.

The hot spring at the foot of the mountain is something you must try after the climb. It will ____58____(undoubted) help you get refreshed! The amazing thing about the spring is that the colder the temperature gets, the ____59____(hot) the spring! Strange, isn't it? But that's how nature is - always leaving us ____60____(astonish).

What comes next is the endless series of steps. You can't help wondering how hard it ____61____(be) for the people then to put all those rocks into place. Though it is the only unnatural thing on your way up the mountain, still it highlights the whole adventure ____62____offers a place where you can sit down to rest your ____63____(ache) legs.

As the song goes, this long and winding road "will never disappear", and it will always stick in the visitor's memory. It sure does in ____64____(I).While you're in China, Mount Huangshan is ____65____must to visit!

My husband and I just spent a week in Paris. ____36____So the first thing we did was rent a fantastically expensive sixth-floor apartment the size of a cupboard. It was so tiny that we had to leave our suitcases in the hallway.

The place wasn't entirely authentic，though. Unlike a normal Parisian apartment, the plumbing (水管) worked. ____37____Our building even had a tiny lift with a female voice that said, "Ouverture des portes," in perfect French. That is the only French phrase I mastered, and it's a shame I don't have much use for it.

Parisians are different from you and me. They never look lazy or untidy. As someone noted in this paper a couple of weeks ago, they eat great food and never gain weight. ____38____French strawberries do not taste like cardboard. Instead, they explode in your mouth like little flavor bombs.

____39____On our first morning in Paris, I went around the corner to the food market to pick up some groceries. I bought a handful of perfectly ripe small strawberries and a little sweet melon. My husband and I agreed they were the best fruit we had ever eaten. But they cost ＄18!

In France, quality of life is much more important than efficiency.

You can tell this by cafés life. French cafés are always crowded. ____40____When do these people work? The French take their 35-hour workweek seriously - so seriously that some labor unions recently struck a deal with a group of companies limiting the number of hours that independent contractors can be on call.

A．	Not all the customers are tourists.
B．	The quality of life in France is equally excellent.
C．	There was a nice kitchen and a comfortable bed.
D．	The amazing food is mainly consumed by local farmers.
E．	That's not the only reason the French eat less than we do.
F．	Our aim was to see if we could live, in some way, like real Parisians.
G．	The food is so delicious that you don't need much of it to make you happy.

Regardless of the weather or the distance, Paul Wilson will make sure low-income students in his neighbourhood arrive at their college classes on time.

A retired engineer, 76-year-old Wilson has been         1       free rides to college students for the past eight years. Since he first started         2       his car to the young people. Wilson has         3       am astonishing 64, 000 miles, and has had countless pleasant and often humorous         4       with the students he transports to and from school. The students who he's         5       have gone on to become physicians, teachers and engineers, but what they've also got out of their time in school is finding a role model and a friend in Wilson. Some students         6       call him "Grandpa".

Tina Stern         7       rides from Wilson for all her four years in college, and the trips meant much more to her than just free         8       . "It's not just a ride；you're not just sitting there in         9       silence or with your headphones on." Stern said. "He asks you questions and actually         10       the answers, so the next time you ride with him, he'll         11       those things."

Wilson first worked as a driver through a student-support programme of the non-profit organisation. On Point for College. Although the         12       asks the members only to drive students to and from their classes, Wilson often goes         13       to ensure the welfare and safety of the students. If they have problems with registration.

Wilson is there to         14       them. If they run out of certain daily necessities. Wilson will drive to the nearest store and purchase what's needed. If a student gets hungry on the long drives to and from school, Wilson never         15       to buy them a meal.

For many students, Wilson's help is not only appreciated, it's also entirely         16       for them to be able to complete their college education. Some students don't have a reliable car, while others have to         17       vehicles with parents who work six days a week. For them, riding with Wilson has         18       them to complete their education-but according to Wilson, he benefits just as much from the         19       . "I just love driving and I love these kids, "Wilson said. "It's such a(n)         20       to be a part of these kids' lives, even just for a few hours, getting to know them and hearing their stories."

My mother is 92.Unless I have to be out of town,each week I take my mother to do her 16 and visit the doctor,providing 17  and transportation.During the week,however,she likes

to go to a nearby store to 18  some small things she needs.

Last week she walked up to the store,but when she went to pay for her groceries,she was 19    about  three dollars.The only 20  to pay for the groceries was to take off the 21  she  could do without:a bottle of rubbing alcohol（医用酒精）and a bar of soup.By taking of these,she was able to 22   the new total to the amount of cash she had with her.

At this store,people 23   and then go off to the side to 24  their own groceries. My mother was putting her groceries into shopping bags when a 25   came up to her and said,"Here are the things that you 26  ." handingher the rubbing alcohol and the 27   .My mother,who is never speechless,was speechless.She 28   for the woman's name and address so that she could 29    her.The woman told her it was her 30 .

My mother was so 31   byher gesture that she decided to go back to the store and give the cashier（收银员）a five-dollar bill to keep on hand 32 the same happened to someone else if they didn't have enough 33  for all of their groceries.

So,whoever you are,thank you for the random act of 34 that not only helped my mother out,but   35   too.

Ecotourism is commonly regarded as low impact ( 影响)travel to undisturbed places .It is different from traditional tourism because it allows the traveler to become 4 1       (educate )about the areas -both in terms of geographical conditions and cultural characteristics, and often provides money for conservation and benefits the  4 2      (develop)of the local areas.

Ecotourism has 4 3       (it) origin with the environmental movement of the 1970s. It was not widely accepted as a travel concept 4 4        the late 1980s. During that time,increasing environmental awareness made it desirable.

Due to 4 5      growing popularity of environmentally-related and adventure travel,various types 4 6         trips are now being classified as ecotourism. Actually, a true eco-friendlytrip must meet thefollowing principles:

  Minimize the impact of 4 7        (visit) the place.

        Build respect for and awareness of the environment and cultural practices.

        Provide 4 8         (finance)aid and other benefits for local peoples.

        Make sure that the tourism provides positive experiences for both the visitors and the hosts.

Komodo National Park,officially recognized in 1980,is popular for ecotourism because of its unique biodiversity. 4 9          (activity)there range from whale watching to

hiking ( 远足 )and accommodations aim 5 0        (have )a low impact on the natural environment.

I was ready to pay for my bananas at the grocery one night, when fear seized me. My wallet was gone. I could only have left it on the G9 bus, which was now speeding in the dark to some         1      station.

The         2      moment was quickly followed by mental math. How much time and money would it cost to replace the         3      of that little wallet？The credit cards, the driver's license, the cash, all lost to the bus.

Two hours later, back at my house, I heard a knock on the door. My husband         4      it while I was on the phone in the dining room. "Does Jennifer live here?" I heard a lady say. In my husband's hand was my wallet, with not a penny         5      . She left before I could         6      make it to the door to offer my thanks.

After sharing the story online, I heard from someone, who         7      the lady as Erin Smith. Without         8     , I called to thank her. She said she         9      my wallet on a bus seat. She         10      that going to a stranger's house was a         11      move, but she decided to take the chance. "If I were in that         12      . I would want someone to try to find me," she said.

This one stranger responded beautifully to my small         13     , but she actually wasn't the only one. Right after Erin         14      my wallet on the bus, she posted a picture of my driver's license to an online forum（论坛）, trying to see         15      anyone knew me. No sooner did she leave my doorstep than I had emails from two women whose kids go to my son's nursery and who recognized my face. I've never         16      words with those moms beyond small talk, but they wanted to help. I read that people are more divided than ever, but that's not how the people I         17      tend to act.

        18      , I feel blessed someone had wanted to help a stranger. Erin had gone         19      what almost anyone would have done, finding my house on a bitterly cold night, and for that I was extremely         20     .

Recently，I took a trip home by train．I got a seat opposite a middle-aged man with sharp eyes，who kept 1 a young woman in a window seat with a little boy on her lap．The woman's eye fell on the man's face，and she immediately looked down and 2 her scarf．

As the night wore on，people began to close their eyes，but the seats were so uncomfortable that only a very heavy sleeper could manage to get any 3 ．The woman looked over at the man．He was still staring at her．She looked back at him with fire in her eyes．I was beginning to get 4 ，too．

The train moved on．The little boy was 5 awake on his mother's lap，but the woman dropped off to sleep．A moment later，he began to 6 the half-open window-one leg went over it．The man jumped up and 7 the child just before he fell out．

The 8 woke up the woman．She seemed to be in 9，and then reality dawned （显现）．"Your child has been looking for an opportunity to climb out of the window，"the man said as he gave the child back to her. ．"So I have been watching the whole time．"The woman was 10 ，and so was I．

It's about 250 miles from the hills of west-central Iowa to Ehlers' home in Minnesota. During the long trip home, following a weekend of hunting, Ehlers         1       about the small dog he had seen         2       alongside the road. He had         3       to coax（哄）the dog to him but, frightened, it had         4       .

Back home, Ehlers was troubled by that         5       dog. So, four days later, he called his friend Greg, and the two drove         6       . After a long and careful         7       . Greg saw, across a field, the dog moving         8       away. Ehlers eventually succeeded in coaxing the animal to him. Nervousness and fear were replaced with         9       . It just started licking（舔）Ehlers' face.

A local farmer told them the dog sounded like one         10       as lost in the local paper. The ad had a         11       number for a town in southern Michigan. Ehlers         12       the number of Jeff and Lisa to tell them he had         13       their dog.

Jeff had         14       in Iowa before Thanksgiving with his dog, Rosie, but the gun shots had scared the dog off. Jeff searched         15       for Rosie in the next four days.

Ehlers returned to Minnesotan, and then drove 100 miles to Minneapolis to put Rosie on a flight to Michigan. "It's good to know there's still someone out there who         16       enough to go to that kind of         17       ," says Lisa of Ehlers' rescue         18       .

I figured whoever lost the dog was probably just as         19       to it as I am to my dogs," says Ehlers. "If it had been my dog, I'd hope that somebody would be         20       to go that extra mile."

The journey my daughter Cathy has had with her swimming is as long as it is beautiful.

Cathy suffered some terrible 16 in her early childhood. After years of regular treatment, she 17 became healthy.

Two years ago, while Cathy was watching the Olympics, a dream came into her sweet little head-to be a swimmer. Last summer, she wanted to 18 out local swim team. She practiced hard and finally 19it. The team practice, 20was a rough start. She coughed and choked and could hardly 21her first few weeks. Hearing her coughing bitterly one night, I decided to 22 her from it all. But Cathy woke me up early next morning, wearing her swimsuit 23to go! I told her she shouldn't swim after a whole night's coughing, but she refused to 24 and insisted she go .

From that day on, Cathy kept swimming and didn't 25 a single practice. She had a 26intention within herself to be the best she could be. My ten-year-old was growing and changing right before my eyes, into this 27 human being with a passion and a mission. There were moments of 28 of course: often she would be the last swimmer in the race. It was difficult for Cathy to accept that she wasn't a 29 ---ever. But that didn't stop her from trying.

Then came the final awards ceremony at the end of the year. Cathy didn't expect any award but was still there to 30 her friends and praise their accomplishments. As the ceremony was nearing the end, I suddenly heard the head coach 31 , "The highest honor goes to Cathy!" Looking around, he continued, "Cathy has inspired us with her 32 and enthusiasm. 33skills and talents bring great success, the most valuable asset(财富)one can hold is the heart."

It was the greatest 34 of my daughter's life. With all she had been 35 in her ten years, this was the hour of true triumph(成功).
