• 1．Dear Mummy，
     This last trip to India with you has brought home to me a few hard facts-facts that I wanted to avoid seeing for some time.As you well know，you and I have had a few arguments and several days of tension during the trip.I must admit sometimes I really do not know how to communicate to you what I really feel.Words seem to fail on both sides.That's why I am writing this letter.Perhaps it will be a bit easier. ①____
     As I approach my seventeenth year，I suddenly ask myself where I belong.I know this is the usual teenage identity crisis.You came to this country when you were slightly older than I am and married my father.You admired the American lifestyle and tried to be an American as much as you could.I am the daughter of you，a mother who is Indian，and a father who is American.Of course，I am American.Except for a few trips to India I have little to do with India outwardly.But I feel how much you would like me to become Indian sometimes.I cannot explain it with examples.But I feel it in my bones.The India that you never quite shake off comes back to you now and you want to see your daughter live it，at least partly. ②____ Yes，Mummy，I know I am wrapped up in many superficial things，things my friends indulge in and I can understand your need to protect me.But I am part of them and in order for me to be accepted by my friends，sometimes I need to do things which do not always please me either.I need their approval and I want to be like them sometimes.But your good intentions to teach me those good Indian things then come into disagreement.Although I dislike the superficiality of my friends，I cannot move back to your culture just because it is better for you or more ancient or deep. ③____
     My dearest mother，I cannot be protected by you.Forgive me if I remind you of something you related to me many times.You could not be protected by my grandparents （your parents） when you decided to embrace this culture along with my father. ④____ Nor can you protect me despite the fact that we are not separated by physical distance.Perhaps we are separated by something else and I suspect that is India.
     I have never written a letter like this before in my short life.I feel good about writing this and would like to hear what you have to say.Ma，perhaps you and I can still be friends in a way that you and your mother could not be.Let's try.I love you.
  Yous，
  Rita

• 2．April Fools' Day is supposed to be a day to play jokes on others in hopes of getting a good laugh and making one feel like a fool.However，the April Fool's Day of 2019 was quite different for my mom and me.
     That day my friend Jimmy and I were playing a game.I had dropped down from a bar （橫木） many times in the past without ever having a problem，but that day the simple act of dropping to the ground became a nightmare （噩夢）.I broke my arm.
     Jimmy's dad heard my crying and rushed out to see what was going on.When he saw the problem，he quickly put me into his truck and went inside to telephone my mom and let her know he would take me to the hospital.As that day was April Fools' Day，Mom was not buying it and really thought all this was a big joke.Mom was finally convinced by Jimmy's mom.When she saw me，she broke down in tears because she felt so bad-she simply believed that was just a big trick.
     I guess one could compare this to the story The Boy Who Cried Wolf.Since I had played bad tricks before，it was no wonder that my mom didn't believe it.I as well as my mom was made to look like a fool that day.We both learned a valuable lesson.

     Li has about 20 million followers on Sina Weibo，China's equivalent to Twitter，plus 7 million followers on overseas social media networks.Many foreigners say they have got to know traditional Chinese food culture via her channel.

   65-year-old Richard Oslen was interested in adventure and hunting.This time he hunted on a land near Watford City，N.D．.In the cold winter，he set out to try a new place.He didn't take his cell phone，thinking that it was not a must.He walked more than half a mile with two dogs to a wheat field.

   Realizing that he was in trouble and was going to hurt himself，Richard decided to come to land quickly.However，his left leg was hurt，so he had to reach for his shotgun，unload it and use it as a crutch（拐杖）.When he was partly up，he lost his balance and fell into the river again.This time one of his feet got stuck between two rocks.Richard told himself that if he didn't get himself out of that river，he wasn't going to have a very good night.
   Richard managed to make his foot free and climbed more slowly and carefully.Richard suddenly realized the difficulty of the task before him.The accident happened at about 2 p.m.，and it was almost 5 p.m.with the road far away as the sun was setting.
   Although Richard met with many difficulties，he didn't give up.He was stubborn and sure that he must be persistent.With his gun's support，he tried jumping with his right leg.Once，twice， …h(huán)e failed again and again，feeling extremely tired.After a longer break，he made a desperate attempt.Luckily，he managed to climb out of the river and lay on the land，gasping.Temperatures dropped，and his hands and feet soon were completely numb with cold.
  Paragraph 1：
   Richard's dogs had been playing in the field and finally came up to him.________.
  Paragraph 2：
   Luckily，not all hope was lost ---- there came the seventh car.________.
