A Cross-Country Running Race
To enrich students'extra-curricular activities,our school hosted a 5-kilometer cross-country
running race.Students from Grade 11 and 12 all took an active part in it.
The participants,selected from various classes and grades,gathered at the school grounds at
2:00 p.m.and started running at the sound of the whistle.The competition was extremely fierce
as every runner spared no effort to run fast.Along the route,volunteers applauded and cheered
loudly for the runners,some raising their cameras to capture the exciting moment.Finally,a
student from Class 17 crossed the finish line first,claiming the victory.
This activity benefited us a lot.Not only did it provide a chance for us to exercise,but it also
enabled us to get close to nature.

Kiana asked Cierrah to take off one of her cowboy boots and use it to bail water out.Hard
as she tried,that little effort would not help stop the boat from sinking.Moments later,the
unthinkable happened.The boat was completely filled with water and then flipped over.Kiana
and her sister were dumped in the water.Their father,who had undergone a surgery six months

the sudden change.
Kiana quickly put on her life jacket and noticed that Cierrah's and her father's life jackets
