I went to Beijing this National holiday, and it was an interesting experience of my life.

　　My friends told us that taking the “hard　 36　”to Beijing would be really terrible. So we didn’t know what to　 37　. But we were pleasantly surprised when we finally boarded the　 38　 , which was relatively modern and　 39　 . During the 14 - hour ride we ate peanuts and talked. It was not　 40　 at all.

　　It was morning when we arrived. We stepped out of the railway station, having sat in hard seats and not getting much　 41　 . However, We had energy, First we tried to get return tickets to Shanghai, but the tickets seller　 42　 us that tickets would not be on　 43　 for another two days. We were a little worried about getting　 44　 , but we made up our minds to　 45　 for the hotel to put our bags down. After fighting our way　 46　 the“ gypsy” taxi drivers that tried to　 47　 us one hundred yuan for the ride, we found a taxi and it　 48　 cost us thirty yuan to get　 49　 we had planned to go. When we reached the hotel, there was a window for airplane and train tickets.　 50　 the man behind the counter could get tickets that day, which we　 51　 . The most important lesson about China I ever　 52　 , is to get someone to do your work for you, and it seems to work out much　 53　 . We were not able to get tickets, but the　 54　 agents（代理）could.

　　While in Beijing we saw a lot of places of interest, most of which were very　 55　 . It was fun to be with thousands of people in one place, There aren’t any words to describe it.

When we talk about a bad man, we like to call him a “wolf”.But is it really true that the wolf stands for devil and ugliness.?

Have you read the book “The Wolf Totem” by a famous writer Jiang Rong, which tells the story of the relationship between wolves and human beings? Have you ever ?　36　? the wolves' world? If you had, you would ?　37　? the wolves.?

In the book, wolves are heroes on the large grassland. They know more about ?　38　? than humans. They can attack lambs without disturbing their mothers. They also know how to ?　39　? full use of the shape of land to ?　40　? sheep. I believe that if wolves were humans, they would be ?　41　? experts good at fighting.?

The wolf is a kind of special creature that can deeply understand ?　42　?.Each wolf serves its group with its heart and soul. A ?　43　? wolf has little power, but a pack of wolves ?　44　? nothing. All the wolves obey the rules.?　45　? they are defeated, they run away together. It is their teamwork ?　46　? makes wolves powerful.?

The wolves also have great self?respect and won't ?　47　? to anyone. The writer, who wrote the book “The Wolf Totem”,?　48　? stole a one-month-old baby wolf and raised it very carefully. To his ?　49　?,he found the little wolf still wanted to go back with ?　50　? wolves. He bit through the iron chain that limited him. The wolf was ?　51　? and he never gave in, fighting ?　52　? his death. The little wolf died as a glorious fighter.?

I was shocked by this kind of ?　53　?:wolves are one of the most respected creatures on earth. I want everyone to look at wolves in a ?　54　? way. They are our teachers. They show us how to survive and ?　55　? in this not simple and dangerous world. Please honor the wolves, please honor all these heroes of nature!
