on the beach.
We played volleyball for an hour. Suddenly, Kevin hit (打) the ball into the sea. I wanted to show off (炫耀) how well I swam so I decided to get the ball.
I jumped into the sea and started swimming. After swimming for about fifteen minutes, I was tired. But the ball was only a few meters away from me. I tried to get the ball. However, some grass (草) stopped me. I tried but I couldn’t swim. I shouted for help. A young man came to help me quickly. When I woke up, I was in the hospital. I saw my parents sitting on the chair.

C
I’m Emily. Three years ago, I thought I didn’t have enough time to do the hou
sework, so I cancelled the cable (取消有线电视). But I still think it’s fun to watch TV shows when I
get the chance.
My favorite show was The Life Laundry. It was so interesting. It came on Saturday mornings after Norm on This Old House and Rick Steves’ Europe. It was like Clean Sweep. It chose some common people. In the show, people took everything in the house outside so they could see how many things they had. Then they would go through each thing and decide whether (是否) to keep or sell it. When people sold some things they would never use, a team (团队) would make the home more beautiful with a new coat of paint. At the end of the show, everyone was always happy to see their home cleaned up and look spacious.
Antiques Roadshow came after The Life Laundry, which was confusing (令人困惑的) because The Life Laundry made you want to clean out your things, but it made you want to keep everything.

A. four B. three C. two D. one
( )67. When was The Life Laundry?

There were many characters in the play. Of course, the girls wanted to play the Princess (公主). Li Fan played the King. Wang Ping and other six boys in the club
played the seven dwarfs (矮人). I thought I might get the role of the Princess. But He Yan got it. Miss Wang asked me to act the role of the Queen. I wasn’t very happy about this. But Miss Wang said, “The most important thing is the acting.”
From then on, I tried to act the Queen. It was difficult for me to do it because I had no experi
