Deciding what present you should give someone is never easy. Many things must be considered such as 1 the person is interested in and how old he is. We must also consider the reaction 2 the person receiving the gift. One of the worst gift choices I ever made was for my high school English teacher, Ms Chen. Ms Chen has taught me English since Junior 1, and to show my appreciation I decided to get 3 a present. I asked my classmates about her interests 4 I made my final decision.
Then I went to the department store5 I worked part-time and bought her 6 expensive gift box of Sichuan beef. I was certain she would like it 7 I had been told by my classmates that she loved hot food. I left the box with a card on her desk, and I was sure she would like them.8 was only after I heard she became sick that I learned she couldn't eat MSG !

A friend of mine met with an accident driving in darkness. His legs were so hurt that he couldn’t move. What was 36 was that he found himself unable to ask for help—his mobile phone went out of 37 as a result of exhausted(用盡的)battery. Nothing could be done but 38 in the cold wilderness. It was 8 hours later that day broke and then the 39 of the rescue team.
It is almost 40 that he could stand the horror in the darkness for so long. Even more surprising was his 41: “First of all I checked my 42 conditions and found myself not in danger. As there was no 43 to call for help, I leaned back in my seat trying my best to keep the wound from 44. In this way I dozed(打盹)off.”
His story put an end to my regret for the 45 of an exploration that happened last year. A group of young men 46 to explore a mountain cave and got lost. 47 to find a way out in the dark cave they were frightened and ran anxiously without a sense of 48.
