When the train arrived at the station, they took a taxi to Lake Louise,     1     the blue water literally took their breath away with its exceptional beauty. They spent the night and then took a coach     2     north through the Canadian Rockies to Jasper. Looking at the beautiful scenery, they both agreed that it was the most     3     journey they had ever taken.

A NIGHT IN THE MOUNTAIN

    1     it was autumn, the snow was already beginning to fall in Tibet. Our legs were so heavy and cold that they felt like blocks of ice. Have you ever seen snowmen ride bicycles? That’s     2     we looked like? Along the way children dressed in long wool coats stopped to look at us. In the late afternoon we found it was so cold that water bottles     3    . However, the lakes shone like glass in the setting sun and looked wonderful. Wang Wei rode in front of me as usual. She is very     4     and I knew I didn’t need to encourage her. To climb the mountains was hard work but as we looked around us, we were surprised by the view. We seemed to be able to see for miles. At one point we were so high that we found ourselves cycling through clouds. Then we began going down the hills. It was great fun     5       as it gradually became much warmer. In the valleys colourful butterflies flew around us and we saw many yaks and sheep eating green grass. At this point we had to change our caps, coats, gloves and trousers for T-shirts and shorts.
