—___________ I can put it right.

Our science teacher asked us we ever been in a maglev train.

    Two men walked through the countryside toward another village. As they come to the edge of a river, they saw an old woman sitting there upset because the bridge was by the storm, and she was too weak to walk across the stream. The first man said , "We are tall enough, we can carry you across." The second man thought it troublesome, but he agreed reluctantly(不情愿地) . So the two menhands, lifted her between them and carried her across the river. When they got to the other side, they sat her down and she went on her way gratefully. After they had walked another mile or so, the second man began to complain. "My back began to hurt for lifting her." The first mansmiled and nodded without a word

About seven items of information can at a time by short-term memory.

    My favourite area in Britain is a county called Northumberland in the north-east of the country. I like it because it has mountains, the sea and history. The mountains are not very high. In China you would probably call them hills rather than mountains as they are less than 1. 000 metres high, but there is something wild about these mountains you get a feeling of space and freedom You can walk for miles without meeting another person.

    Northumberland is full of history. There are seven castles, some of them were ruined and the others still there as they were centuries ago. You can find graves going back to prehistoric(史前的) times and strange carvings on rocks which nobody understands. The coast line is dramatic too, with beautiful sandy beaches. These beaches are rarely crowded because the weather is unpredictable and the North Sea is very cold！People don't go for seaside holidays to Northumberland because of the cold sea and weather, so even in high season there aren't many tourists.

    There is an island called Holy Island off the coast of Northumberland, you can get to the island by car or on foot when the tide is out. There is also one castle I particularly like. It is a 14th century castle which stands on a cliff right by the sea. The castle is almost completely ruined, but it looks dramatic and romantic because you can still see the gate and two of its towers. On a summer's day you can lie on the beach nearby and let your mind wander as you look at this dream-like castle. On a winter's day you can walk to the castle and watch the wave's crash into the cliff, wondering how this castle has stood so long against the forces of nature

    I once said to a friend of mine that I thought this castle by the sea was the most beautiful place in the world. She laughed and said there must be many more dramatic places in the world. In one way. I'm sure she's right, but for me, it's not just about what a place looks like, it's about what it says to you.

    The first day of university our professor introduced himself and challenged us to get to know someone we didn't know. I stood up to look around when a1hand touched my shoulder. I turned around to find a wrinkled(有皱纹的) , little old lady with a smile. She2a minute and said. "Hi, handsome. My name is Rose. I'm eighty-seven years old. Can I give you a hug?" I laughed and responded "Of course you may!" and then she gave me a big one.

    We became immediate friends. Every day for the next three months, we would leave class together and talk nonstop. I always loved listening to this "time machine"  3she shared her wisdom and experience with me. Over the course of the year, Rose became a campus role model and she4made friends wherever she went. She loved to dress up and she loved the attention from the other students.

    At the end of the term we invited Rose to speak at our football club. I'll never forget what she taught us. She was introduced and stepped up to the platform. As she began to deliver her prepared speech, she dropped her cards on the floor. A little upset she simply said. "I'm sorry I'm so nervous. I5beer for Lent(大斋节) and this wine is killing me！I'll never get my speech back in order" As we laughed, she cleared her throat and began, "We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing. There is a huge6between growing older and growing up. Anybody can grow older, but it does take talents and abilities to grow up. .

    One week after graduation Rose died peacefully in her sleep. However, these words have been passed along in loving memory of ROSE.
