     The New Year is coming and as usual there are great hopes, dreams and resolutions to make.
However, I will stop hoping and dreaming this time and make the resolutions only.
     First of all, I'm going to spend less time talking and more time doing. In the past (过去的) year, my
friends and I spent too much time talking nonsense (胡说八道). There is much work to do in the new
year, so I'm going to give the year to it.
     Secondly, I'm going to spend less time in front of the TV and the computer. These are fun things but
they are also very time-wasting (浪费时间的). It's better to spend the time reading books.
     Lastly, I'm going to join in fewer sports activities. It is better to do well in the lessons than on the
playground. The legs will get old and cannot play soccer for very long, but the mind will be much more
durable (持久的).
     I made lots of resolutions but didn't keep them before. I'm not going to do that again in the new year.
I'll try my best to keep my resolutions.

Last year I went to Australia to study and travel. I stayed in Sydney for two months. I visited places of   1   in the morning and took English lessons in the afternoon. A friend and I stayed with a family from Sydney. The homestay(寄宿家庭) parents and brothers were very    2   to us. We talked about a lot of things with each other in English.

My spoken English improved    3    in Australia. I used to speak very little English in China. But in Australia, I had to use it very often. I was soon able to    4    my teachers and homestay family freely.

To me, the best place in Australia is the Sydney Opera House. You can look at it from different sides. I think it is one of the most wonderful buildings in the world. I cannot sing very well,  5    when I was inside, I really wanted to sing.

Time    6    fast when I was in Sydney. Soon came Christmas, then the New Year. I had never spent the New Year    7    my family. But this year, I was so far away from them. I felt      8    sad. I missed them so much, and l knew they missed me so much    9    . In the evening, I phoned my family. When I heard their    10   , I began to cry. My homestay mother held me in her arms and comforted me. What a kind foreign mother I had!
