The “Top 10 Singers” Competition

Days before the “Top 10 Singers” competition, I was making predictions about who might w    1     (获胜，赢). Everyone was preparing for it. The competitors from my class g    2     (抓住) every chance to practise, and some even composed their own m    3     (音乐，乐曲)!

The great day c    4     (到了). The singers from each class p    5     (表演，演唱) their songs. Some of them were accompanied by a friend on the p    6     (钢琴) or guitar. Most of the songs were in the pop s    7     (风格). Some were adaptations of t    8     (传统的) songs. Some were simple songs w    9     (而) some were rather complicated. The singing was beautiful and two h    10     (小时) was gone before we realized it. Ten students were s    11     (选为) as the top singers of our school, but I think every one of us deserved a p    12     (奖励，奖品) for our efforts.

The competition was extraordinarily s    13     (成功的). It was great fun and we all e    14     (喜欢) it. More importantly, such activities reflected our dreams and our passion and transformed our u    15     (理解) of life.

Holidays with friends can be great fun and a good way of getting to know each other better.    1    一个好的旅行计划将会帮助你玩得很愉快. Also it will help you to save money if you start planning earlier.

Choose a place to visit. Going abroad will cost more but be a more exciting experience. Don’t go abroad if this is the first time you organize(组织)the holidays.    2     Going to a different place in your own country can also be fun and will be cheaper.

Collect your friends. Work out how many people you will be able to plan the trip for.    3    邀请能和你友好相处的人。

Meet up. Everyone will have their own idea of what the trip to be like, you should have a meeting.     4    你最好准备一个笔记本写下一些重要的事情。

Book transport(交通). When you decide on your hotel, you will know the dates of your stay and will be able to book transport, such as trains, buses and airplanes. Booking transport earlier can help you save some money.

    5     All in all, no matter where you go, just start planning as early as possible.
