Born in the city, we regard the country life as something far away. We are used to e in the city. We are even getting used to the noisesand pollution in the city. It has become a p
of our life. I have never been to the country. Nature is a word strange to us. This summer I had the chance to go with my parents on a v
to countryside.
For the first time in my life I have the experience with the country life. Here I r what a life of nature is. This is a small village far from cities. It is at the foot of a mountain. The life there is s
. It is different from the city life.
There are few cars or other t on the way. The air is fresh. The sky is high. The people are friendly. They are not as busy as t
in the big city. Everywhere you can find people bathing i
the sun. They drink clean water. The water comes from the mountain. They e
the quiet life very much. What's more, there you can hear the sound of nature. You can find the children p
with water in the river and the dogs running after the people. All these make a wonderfulpicture of countryside. How I love the country life!

I recently heard a story about a famous scientist. Because of his great achievements, he was thought to be more creative than the common person. When he _______(ask) why he was able to do this, he gave the answer. It all came from an experience with his mother when he was about three years old. “I
______(try) to get a bottle of milk from the fridge when I lost the bottle and it fell, spilling（溢出）the milk all over the floor—a sea of milk! I was frightened and I didn’t know what to do!” he said.
His mother heard the noise and got into the kitchen. “I___(consider) how to explain all this to you, mom.” he said. Instead of
_____(punish) him, she said, “Robert, what a great mess you have made! I
__ (not see) such a huge sea of milk before! Well, since the milk has already been spilled, would you like
____ (play) in the milk for a while? We
______(clean) it up after that.” Then, he did so. After a few minutes, his mother said, “You know, Robert, whenever you
______(make) a mess like this, finally you have to clean it up.” He used a sponge （海绵）and together they cleaned up the spilled milk.
His mother then said, “You know, we _____(fail) in how to successfully carry a big milk bottle with two tiny hands just now. Let’s go out in the yard and fill the bottle with water to see if you
_______(discover) a way to carry it.” Then the little boy learned that if he grasped(抓紧) the bottle at the top with both hands, he could carry it without dropping it.
What a wonderful lesson!
