My name is Randall Davis. Years ago, I wanted     1    (make) something of myself working as an editor. However, I realized later that the most important things in life lived within the walls of my own home. So today my     2    (great) interest is my family.

I enjoy     3    (spend) time with my family. I have four children, and we go hiking and camping together. On our hikes, we often talk about life or tell     4    (story). We always have fun taking pictures. I can also focus     5    my kids without the distractions (分心) of video games or the Internet. Telling stories sounds easy,     6    when you have to think of a new story on a hot, 12-kilometre hike through the desert, you have come up with ideas off the top of your head.

Now, this doesn’t mean we don’t have problems; all families face challenges in     7    (they) lives, and our family     8    (be) no exception. However, we try to talk     9    (open)about our problems, and we try to solve our problems together. Building     10    strong family takes time, but it is worth the effort.
