The city’s landscape is decided by volcanic hills, the twin harbors, bays, beaches and islands. Its nickname “the city of sails” is very suitable. Auckland has more boats for each person than anywhere else in the world.

Auckland has many volcanic hills, many of which currently afford great views of the city. And Auckland’s geography is such that shiny waters seem to attract people from every point. It is a water lovers’ best place, with some of the best beaches, swimming, diving, fishing, sailing, windsurfing and water sports in the country.

Wellington is the capital city of New Zealand. It is also the cultural, administrative and political center of the country. Two aspects of the city that will immediately strike any visitor are the harbor and hilly landscape. Everywhere you go, the sounds and the smell of the ocean hang in the air, and green hills and valleys wrap you in a bear-hug embrace. At night, Wellington offers a spectacular, shimmering(闪闪发光的) cityscape that is unlike almost anywhere else in the world. Even after seeing it for a hundred times, it takes your breath away.

Wellington is a scenic, windy and diverse place. It has some of the best museums, art galleries, restaurants, and coffee houses in the country. It is the storehouse for the nation’s historic, cultural and artistic treasures. Being the first place where European settlers arrived, it also boasts lots of historic streets and buildings.

Wellington is host to an excellent Festival of the Arts every two years.

My experience at the begin of my high school life has taught me a good lesson. During that period, it never occurred to me that I was going to be or what kind of life I’d like to live. I always waste my time chatting online and play computer games. It was my poor grades in the mid-term exams and my head teacher’s inspiration that made me realized the importance of set a goal. From then on, I made my mind to get admitted into a famous university and devote me to some research work. Guided by my dream, I found myself making a great progress.

As a famous man once said, “ Living without an aim is like sailing without compass”. Only if we have certain goals in mind and stick on them can we make a difference and achieve success.

It is known that some students cheat in exams.There are three reason.First of all,there are so many exams.Beside,the exams given are difficulty in some ways.Secondly,some students have to cheat in exams because of they are too lazy.The last reason is to please our parents and teachers.For some students,low marks brought them great pressure and make them depressing.In my opinion,cheating in exams are wrong.We should take active attitude to our studies,and try to get a mark what is true.

A group of frogs were traveling through the woods, and two of them fell into a deep pit(坑). When the other frogs saw 【1】 a deep pit it was, they told the two frogs that they were as good as 【2】 (die) . The two frogs didn't listen to the others and tried to jump out of the pit with all their might. The other frogs kept telling them to stop. Finally, one of the frogs heard what the other frogs 【3】 (say) and gave up, so he died.

The other frog went on jumping as hard as he could 【4】 (get) out. Once again, the other frogs cried at him and told him to stop and just allow 【5】 to die, but he jumped even 【6】 (hard) and finally made himself out. When he was out, the other frogs said, "Didn't you hear us?" The frog explained to them that 【7】 was wrong with his hearing. He thought they were encouraging him 【8】 whole time.

There is power of life and death in the tongue. An encouraging word to someone 【9】 is down can lift him or her up and help them make it 【10】 the day, while bad words can rob another of the spirit to go on in difficult times. Be careful of what you say.

After graduation from college, I started to sell. Soon I discovered that the worried expression I 【1】 (wear)since childhood meant sure failure. I knew it wasn't going to be easy to change that expression on my face left by so many years of 【2】 （hard）.It called for a complete change in my view on life. Here is the method I tried.

Each morning during a fifteenminute bath, I determined to cultivate a big, happy smile. I found out, however, that it couldn't be a 【3】 (force) smile developed just for the purpose of putting dollars in my pocket. It had to be 【4】 honesttogoodness smile from down deep inside， an outward expression of happiness from within!

Let's see 【5】 starting off with a good fifteenminute training of the smile muscles helped me during the day. 【6】 entering an office I would think of many things I had to be thankful for, work up a big smile and then enter. Seldom did it fail 【7】 (get) the same smile 【8】 return from the person I met. I also found that it pleased people when I passed them on the street to give them a cheerful smile.

Give every living soul you meet the best smile you have ever smiled in your life, 【9】 see how much better you feel and look. It's one of the best ways I know to stop worrying, and start living. When I began doing this, I found 【10】 more welcome everywhere.
