  Mary and peter were having a 1        with some friend near a river when Mary 2      there was an object overhead. "Look," she shouted to her friends, "That's a spaceship 3        there and it's going to land here."

  4       by the strange silvercovered spaceship,most of the young people got into their cars and 5        away quickly. Peter was fond of Mary and was always staying close to her. They,more 6       than terrified and frightened,watched the spaceship land and saw a door open. When 7       came out,they went to the spaceship and looked carefully insight. In the centre of the floor,there was a pile of food. Peter 8       Mary into the spaceship and did not hear the door 9        behind him. The temperature 10        rapidly and the two young people lost con?sciousness.

  When they 11      ,they were surprised to see that they were back by the 12        again. Their car was nearby.

  "What happened?" asked Mary.

  Peter scratched his head 13        slowly, " Don't ask me. Perhaps we had a 14 . Did you see a spaceship?"

  "Yes," said Mary, "and we both went into it. " Then she looked at her wrist. "That's 15      . My watch has stopped. Oh,well,come on. It's time to go home."

Driving about fifty metres,they found their way 16        by a trick wall made of something like 17       . They got out and tried to find their way round the wall 18        discovered that they were inside a circular wall. It was like a mirror and prevented them from seeing 19        it.

  I need to share a strangely wonderful event in my life that involves cancer and death. I am certain you are 1        with the fact that I am using the words wonderful,cancer and death in the same sentence. I think that after you read this story you will 2        that in this case it is an ap?propriate 3       of words.

  A dear friend of mine was dying of cancer. 4       before she died she shared with me that she was very 5        that she would never get to the 6        again. She grew up near the ocean and it was a(n) 7       place for her. The cancer had made her too 8        to travel 4-5 hours. The next morning I shared this with several of her friends and we 9        we had to do something about it.

  On the afternoon,while her family kept her away from the 10       ,we started to carry out the plan. We dumped (倒) tons of white beach sand in her driveway. After we 11        out the sand in her driveway,we 12       it with two tents,beach balls,shovels (伊子) and beach chairs. 13      ,there was a recorder playing the sound of waves washing the seashore. We even rented an ice cream machine so that we could make her favorite ice cream. When all was in 14       ,her daughter brought her out to her 15        beach where she was 16        by a few dozen friends dressed in flowered shirts. We shed (流) a tear or two that day,17       it was mostly filled with laughs and most of all 18       . The day ended with a fire on her beach.

  She died two weeks later but she managed to 19        her beach four or five more times be?fore she left us. I guess the message of this story is that when someone is in 20       ,we should think of ways to help him/her.
