In a vacation, my brother and I decided to go off for a long walk while we were staying in the countryside. On the top of a mountain, a sudden 1 began to fall and the temperature dropped a lot. It became so dark that we couldn't see the path clearly.
It was difficult for my brother and me to 2 over rocks in the heavy rain. As I paused（停）under a tree, I noticed a cave between two huge rocks. I suggested to make a fire and warm ourselves in the cave. So my brother and I picked up some wood that was still 3 and carried it back to the cave. I lit the fire with matches in my pocket. We sat down and ate our sandwiches around it.
In the cave, the flames 4 light onto its ceiling.“Funny,”said my brother, “You can see shapes on the rock. One of them looks a bit like a deer. There is its head and there are its feet. It almost looks as if someone has 5 it.”I took a burning branch（树枝）and went to examine the rock. Now I could see a shape of a smaller deer. Then we went further into the cave. In front of us was a wall of 6 . There were birds, too, with the eyes carved（雕刻）out of the rock and painted white. We could see a snake, a bear, a wolf, but no people.
At that night, my brother and I were so 7 that we did not get to sleep until very late. We talked and wondered about the people who had lived here before. Neither of us realized that these carvings and paintings 8 back 15,000 years, nor that the title in the newspaper would be“The Find of the Century-Children Aged 13 and 11 Discover Cave Paintings.”

14、People usually think volunteering is just for adults and it seems hard for students like us. But it is totally different in Canada. The government encourages people of any age to volunteer in public and make contributions to the whole society. Therefore, if students want to graduate from high school, 30 hours of volunteering is required. If students want to get into a good university, it helps if they contribute a lot to society.

It includes many different jobs, such as wrapping gifts in a shopping mall, taking care of small kids or cleaning up a church. Students can choose what they want to do and register(注册) on line.

The museum is about the history of the Irving Family, a historically important family in New Westminster. At first, I was nervous to communicate with others. But as time passed I became more open.
