This summer vacation, I travelled there with my 1 . First, we took a taxi to the Ocean Park. There were some fun areas in it, 2 the “Ocean Wonder”. Here we could see thousands of marine (海洋的) animals. When I saw so many different kinds of fish, I 3 I was in the ocean. We watched some wonderful 4 in it. The shows were quite wonderful. We also noticed a beautiful dolphin. It was having a movement in the water. It seemed that the dolphin tried to catch a 5 fish. It moved fast and suddenly 6 out of the water, going up into the air beautifully. It was really 7 . Then we went to the amusement park. The new rides here looked very scary. At first, I 8 that I couldn’t ride them well. However, my brother told me, “If you’re scared, just 9 loudly. It can help you a lot.” To be honest, after riding, I found that did help and I felt very 10 . I think whatever you do, you will never know what’s going on 11 you try.
Hong Kong is also a good place for shopping. Finally, we 12 to Hong Kong Times Square. It was so clean and 13 that I could see everything clearly. I have never seen such a beautiful place. My brother 14 me a white T-shirt. We also chose gifts for our parents. After a 15 , I felt a little hungry. So we had wonton noodles in a restaurant. They weren’t expensive but delicious.

I sat watching Dad one afternoon while Mom shopped. He was unable to 1 after his stroke (中风). As he sat in his wheelchair with his head hanging down, I wondered what he was 2 about.
Sometimes he’d get so 3 with himself and with me because all he saw were his weak points, but what I saw was different. I tried to remind him of all he had done before and 4 him to do what he could still do. Although he’d get 5 when I pushed him to exercise his legs, it was nothing to me——all I wished was that he could stand up.
So in another 6 I quietly said to him, “Hey, Dad, I remember, ” he said 7 . “You got to the middle of the street and stopped 8 .”He smiled.
Ahh, there’s my dad, I thought. Seeing the look of 9 on his face, I continued. “Remember, I was so 10 that I couldn’t move. You walked with me from one side of the street to the other, 11 your strong arms holding on to me, guiding me. With your warm 12 and smile, you repeated (重复), “It’s okay, I 13 . You opened up my world, Dad, helping me to be all I could be.”
And 14 we talked about what happened that day, he held his head up higher. And soon 15 was ready to exercise. With a warm voice and a smile, I said, “It’s okay, you’re doing fine.”

Yesterday I woke up to the sound of music on my sofa in my room. I couldn’t possibly tell you what song was playing because I was thinking 1 to do that day. I felt as if that day was going to be one of “those 2 days”.
After taking my son to school, I remembered I should meet my 85-year-old friend Harry. I 3 to take him to lunch anywhere he wanted to go. When we parked the car, Harry told me, “I have to go into the donut (甜甜圈) shop 4 going to the restaurant.” Of course I agreed and we 5 . He immediately began having a joke with the 6 of the shop. They chatted 7 when she gave him a box of donuts and we went off. I couldn’t help but ask him, “What are the donuts for ” He quickly replied, “You will 8 see.”
As we opened the door to the restaurant, the line was very 9 . It was lunch time. People were on their phones. Babies were crying and the waiters looked 10 . Harry and I were waiting in line, chatting about nothing 11 we reached the front of the line. As he walked to the counter (柜台), he placed the box of donuts on the counter and said, “These are for you and workers.” At once, all the waiters began 12 , and the mood in the restaurant changed. This single act of 13 was so touching. It made us think when was the last time we did 14 nice for a stranger.

Born in a small village in Northwest China, I knew how busy farmers were in spring. And I also got to know what the season 1 to farmers. Spring is a time when the land wakes up from its long 2 , and the fields (田野) are ready to be filled with crops (农作物). If you are lazy in spring, you will get 3 in autumn. So all the farmers seem to 4 with time to sow seeds (播种).
When I was a little girl, every weekend I was busy planting crops, 5 potatoes, tomatoes and beans. To prepare the potato “seeds”, my family used to 6 the sprouted (发芽的) potatoes by ourselves. Sitting around some sprouted potatoes, we were 7 about how to cut them smartly while chatting. The 8 is to make sure every piece of “seed” has one or two sprouts and is not too small. It’s really like a math game.
Farm work is also teamwork and that’s why every spring field is busy with people of all 9 . While one person uses a tool to make small pits (坑) in the soil, the other needs to put the seeds 10 into each pit. Though it may sound 11 , it’s really hard work. My mother told me that 12 I practiced again and again, I couldn’t do it well. After some practice, I finally could make it, I was so 13 .
Through farming work, I felt the 14 force of life in spring. The seeds were so small at first, but slowly, they 15 healthy plants. Perhaps because of these wonderful memories, I hold such a deep love for spring.

Pandas are like the superstars of the animal world. If a panda is born, 1 a panda gets sick, the whole world will know it.
Why Because they are cute. But the bigger 2 is that there are not many left. In the 1980s, the number 3 to just 1,114.
But here’s some good news. The number of pandas is becoming larger and larger. 4 the IUCN, the latest research shows there are about 1,864 pandas in the wild in China.

Eating well
Pandas sometimes eat small animals and fish, but bamboo 6 99 percent of their diet. And these guys are big eaters! A panda needs 10 to 18 kg of 7 a day.
In 1958, China set up the first panda reserve (保护区). Now there are 67 of them. People have planted lots of bamboo there 8 pandas can have enough fresh food.
Remembering to be gentle (温和的)
Baby pandas are only 15 cm long — that is as long as a pencil! They can’t see 9 when they are born, and only open their 10 six to eight weeks after birth. So researchers need to 11 them well in labs.
When pandas grow big enough, researchers 12 them to the wild. But researchers try not to trouble other pandas’ lives. When they get close to wild pandas, they dress up 13 pandas.
Saying hello to the world
China has also welcomed international organizations (组织) wishing to 14 pandas. The most famous visit was in 1980 by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF).
Its logo is the panda,so it makes the panda 15 worldwide.
