Since I was well prepared, I felt that my 4 of winning were strong. 5 , when I gave my speech on Election Day, the response (反应) wasn’t what I had pictured. Few people actually listened.

It was obvious (明显的) who would 7 . For the rest of the day, I felt like it was over. I wanted to just go home and cry, but I made it through. My 8 was right: I didn’t win.

However, this time, halfway through the tunnel, the coach got stuck and couldn’t 305 . At that moment, a man passed by. “Last month, some workers repaired this road, so the road is a little 5 now.” he said. All the students looked at each other in silence, then followed the teacher and got off the coach. At this time, one smart student Tom said, “Why not let some 6 out of the tires (轮胎)? Then the coach will be a bit lower, and it will be able to 7 through the tunnel safely.” Everyone thought Tom’s advice was great and 8 it. The coach finally came out of the tunnel. It is the same in our journey of life. We often get stuck and become 9 because we want too many things.

Each of them has opened up windows for me to understand history and knowledge in different ways. When I was a child, I did not understand the 1 of visiting a museum. In the museum, I only ran from one thing to the next and never asked why it was there. But that changed when I 2 . I started to understand that every pot, cloth or tool has a reason to be there.

I thought the 3 would be boring at first, but in fact the museum was full of surprises. 4 I entered the museum, the bright treasures on show interested me at once. They were very nice to see. I 5 the hall about village life most. A whole old farm village has been rebuilt: clay pots, a wooden well and even a tiny field. It looked very 6 for people like me living in modern cities. All the things in the museum have a history behind them and the 7 stories may or may not be known. So people keep asking questions and talking about them. The journey to the museum was a very great 8 and it actually gave me a whole picture of the history of the city. Every time we go into a museum, we are often told, “Don’t talk loudly!” “Don’t touch this!” “Don’t touch that!” A special museum — the Please Touch Museum is 9 the opposite. Here we are allowed to 10 everything. I visited it first one year ago. I couldn’t 11 to go there when Mum told us its name. She told us that we could climb, jump and touch everything in the museum. This place is more like a playground 12 a quiet museum. It gives kids the chance to learn 13 playing. I loved this place so much 14 Mum had to pull me out by the arm when we were ready to leave. My favourite places in the museum were the large water table and the little supermarket. I had a lot of fun and I did not 15 I was learning, but actually I was.

Her dad, Liu Yong, who loves martial arts, noticed her 7 when she was 6. Even without formal training, she could perform basic movements like splits (劈叉). Liu Shuhan once told her dad, “I want to be a martial artist 8 I grow up.” As time 9 , Liu Shuhan fell in love with martial arts. She is a 10 girl. Every morning, she and her siblings (兄弟姐妹) run 1 kilometer with 1.3-kilogram sandbags on their legs. Liu Yong said, “I hope martial arts can help my 11 grow up strong.
