I thought my luck had run out at the end of the summer holiday. It was not the 31 of the new term that did it, but the 32 military training. My 33 nightmare(噩梦) had finally come true.
The weather was 34 hot when we were training. Sweat dropped from every part of my body. I 35 as if my mouth was going to catch fire. 36 was the only thing I could think about. It was the first time in my life that I have ever really felt 37 .
However, we had to stand completely 38 all day. The drill-master(教官) were very strict with us. They only 39 us to sit directly on the ground for a few minutes. My heels ached and I had a blister(水泡) on my 40 .
Believe me, this was not the most 41 part. What I couldn’t 42 most of all was the smell of the toilets. It left such a deep impression on me that I can almost smell it right now.I guess most of the other students 43 the same experience that I had. I often thought of giving up and going back home. 44 , I didn’t.
One day, our PE teacher came to watch our 45 for a while. Then he 46 to join the national flag squad(队). “You movement is the best of all,” he praised me. It was so 47 ! I almost couldn’t believe my ears. It was a great honor to be chosen for the squad.
From that day on, I worked much harder than before because I knew I was going to 48 the national flag. Every Monday, thousands of eyes would be 49 on me. Now military training has finished and I have become a flag protector in my school. Every time I raise the flag, I know all my hard work has 50 .

Then one morning his father told him to stay at home and he would do the everyday jobs. 45 that this was his chance, he packed a sandwich and 46 the field towards the house with golden windows.
He walked and walked. As the afternoon went on, he began to realize how he misjudged the long 47 and something else was very wrong.

I have two friends who are eager to go hiking. There is a High Peaks region 1 46 mountains in New York. A mountain club gives special recognition（奖赏） to 2 who climbs all the 46 mountains.

My friends had climbed 45 of the mountains, and the 6 one was the most distant and the highest.

However, the 12 lasted only for a short time. When they 13 , they saw another higher mountain. They had climbed the 14 mountain! 15 the time problem, they had to wait for another four months to climb the right mountain.
