Ever year, schools in Australia have a “Big Day.” Students put their old things on sale for charity. The money will be used to help     1    . But at my school, the topic of Big Day is only about eating!

After lunchtime, different grades got a     2    . All the students took turns running their     3     place. Each one only had 10 minutes so that everyone could have     4    . Every place had their main products.

For example, as 10th graders, we     5    different drinks. The most popular one was an Oreo milk shake     6    ice cream. For grade eleven’s place, the focus was the cheap lollipops（棒棒糖）,which only     7    $ 1 per packet.

I could only work from 1:50 pm to 2 o’ clock. But it was the    8     10 minutes of the activity. I arrived at our place three minutes     9    .

My partners waved at me and said, “Come here! We need some help!" I was pulled to a table with a lot of paper cups. I was asked to shake each cup for 30 seconds to make it taste better.

However, when I     10     the first cup for nearly 20 seconds, the salesman shouted," Hey! Hurry up! People are waiting!" So I speeded up and finally gave it to the customer. Gradually I wore out and I couldn’t even feel my own wrist（手腕）. Finally, I finished my work and bought a milk shake. It tasted a little bit bitter.

Rick doesn’t have fun at school. Because there are too many     1     at his school. Every morning he must get to school before seven o’clock. They mustn’t arrive late     2     school. At seven o’clock they have to read English. At seven thirty they have to exercise. And when they exercise, they have to wear their sports shoes and school     3    . After that, they start to have their lessons. At four o’clock in the afternoon, they finish their lessons. Then they have to go to the club to learn some things. Rick doesn’t like English,     4     he joins the English club for his English tests. Every day, Rick gets home very     5    . He has no time to do what he likes.
