African country.
The villagers lived in small houses, which were built with wood and leaves. There was no school or
hospital. The villagers didn't know how to grow crops. They only went to kill some wild animals and pick some
fruits in the mountains as their food. The volunteers (志愿者) came here to help the village kids. They brought
with them many textbooks and some medicine. They taught the kids how to play volleyball and also tried to learn
their language so that they could talk with the kids better.
Because of their hard work, the International Voluntary Organization gave the villagers the money to carry
electricity to the village. When the lights in every house were shining, the villagers were very excited. They called
them "the little suns". Then, they held a party to choose some lucky men who would invite the volunteers to go
to their homes to see the beautiful night together with their families.

“ Cool ” is a word with many meanings. Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little bit cold. As the world has changed, the word has had many different meanings.
“ Cool ” can be used to express feelings of interest in almost anything.
When you see a famous car in the street, maybe you will say, “It’s cool . ” You may think, “He’s so cool,”when you see your favourite footballer.
We all maximize(扩大)the meaning of “cool”. You can use it instead of many words such as “ new ”or “ surprising ”. Here’s an interesting story we can use to show the way the word is used.

We spent a few days in Paris last week. We visit the famous city quite regularly. After all, it only takes three hours from London to Pairs. It’s always a pleasure visiting places we really like, exploring areas we’ve never been.
The only unlucky thing this time was the weather. As soon as we got there the temperature reached almost 35 degrees C (which lasted until we left). It was so hot that Matthew just couldn’t stand it — for him, it wasn’t the most enjoyable trip. I felt sorry for him because every time we go there he has to put up with (忍受) my endless shopping spree (狂欢) …
Because of the heat, we ended up just having lots of ice-cream and drinks most of the time, although we managed to pay a few visits to the new Herme shop on rue de Vaugirard at least. It’s not as busy as the shop on rue Bonaparte so you can choose whatever you like without worrying about a queue behind you! I really enjoyed his bread this time as well as the cakes. And I must say that his Croissant aux Amandes and Bostock were simply the best I’ve ever had.

A.It was the first time for the writer to go to Paris. |

A.has no bread that the writer likes |
