A reporter from Jiangsu Province went to Australia and some other countries with his father for a 3-month trip,     1     turned out to be a miracle (奇迹).

The reporter’s father spent most of his life    2     (work) on the farm. The son started these    3     (amaze) trips with his father because the father got cancer-----a serious    4     (ill). The reporter wanted    5     (take) his father to travel in the hope that his father can find his younger self in his last days. They    6     (travel) more than 13,000 kilometers and took over 110,000    7     (picture) on their trips to different countries. Well, a miracle happened during the “rebirth” trips.     8     their surprise, his father got    9     (good) and became more open-hearted.

He even taught himself to play    10     violin, and then he played it very well after practice. After that miracle trip, now he is expecting another trip to Africa. He is the most stylish dad ever. Time carves (雕刻) the old father’s face but youth flows in his blood. This is the real style.

For some US college students, a break from school is a time to volunteer to help communities in need. They take school sponsored (赞助)trips to do voluntary work.

This spring break, I had the opportunity to go on one of these     1    (trip), and it was the best week of my entire life. I went with 12 other students and two adults down to Rocky Mount, North Carolina in the US. We worked on three houses，     2    (build)roofs, painting, and landscaping.

    3    was very rewarding to see how much we were     4    (true)appreciated by the people living in that town. Every time we went out somewhere     5    dinner, we had   people come up to us to express their     6    (appreciate). This made us feel really good and     7     (motivate)us to get more done each day.

The trip wasn't all about work, however; we had an     8    (amaze)group of people who enjoyed one another’s company. We created our own fun,     9    helped us get to know   each other well. At the end of the trip, I came home with not only     10    great sense of fulfillment but also 14 really good new friends.
