Ever since 1 was little, my favorite season was winter. I loved to play in the snow and enjoyed the hot chocolate. 
  1 , winter never gave me the special gift of snow on my birthday. I would ask my grandmother  2 it didn’t snow on my birthday. She would laugh and tell me I asked too many questions.   3 one day, she promised that she would make it snow on my next birthday.
That year,   4 my birthday, my grandmother died. I was sad but angry because she had promised to make it snow. The day of my sixth birthday, I woke up and ran to the window, hoping to see just one snowflake(雪花). But there was no   5  . I felt mad at my grandmother. She had broken a promise.
By my sixteenth birthday, I   6 all hope of getting my snow, even though I still wished for it.
During my party, I stayed with my friends and family and was truly    7 . I  8 the best time ever! Then I saw the white snow   9 down all around. I was so excited that I ran around screaming and laughing. My friends all laughed   10 me, but I didn’t care.
When I   11 home, my grandpa said he had a gift for me. I was   12 because he had given me a gift. It was a small white box, which looked old. I opened it. There was a crystal snowflake(冰晶雪花)with a card that    13 , “Happy Birthday.”
How could this be? My grandpa said it was my grandmother’s final   14 on my “sweet sixteenth”. I cried.
I was   15 that my smiling grandmother angel was and had been watching over me.

Is there something strange high up in the world’s tallest mountains? If so, is it a big bear? Is it a monkey? Or is it a kind of man?

No one knows this mystery(谜)has puzzled the world for years.

In 1887, a mountain climber found large footprints(脚印)in the snow. They looked like the footprints of a very large man. But men don’t walk without shoes in the snow!

In 1906, another climber saw more than footprints. Far off, he saw a very large animal standing on two legs. When he watched, it ran very quickly.

Fifteen years later, newspaper had new stories about the “something”. A mountain climber said he had seen the “Snowman” walk slowly across the snow, far below him. He said it looked like a very large man.

From then on, more and more people had stories to tell. But not until 1951 did a mountain climber bring back pictures of large footprints.
