I live in a big city．It’s noisy and dirty and I always feel very 36 ．At the weekends I like to leave the city and get some 37 air and have a good rest．A few weeks ago I decided to go to see my 38 . I was really looking forward to them．

　 My parents live a long way away．I went to see them with James，a friend of 39 ．And we drove there on Friday night．In the middle of the road it began to rain．The roads became very wet and it was difficult to 40 ．We 41 home just after midnight，feeling very tired．The next morning it was still raining．James took his car to a garage(汽车修理站)which was very good．

In the afternoon the 42 got better．We wanted to go for a drive．My parents 43　 us their car．But their car wasn’t very good．It didn’t 　44 on the way. How 45 we were! We had to ring up the garage． “Oh”，they said，“your car won’t 　46 until tomorrow．”So it wasn’t 47 for us to go for a drive．We had to stay at my parents’ home all day．On Sunday my mother 48 a heavy box on her foot and we had to hire(雇佣)a taxi 49 her to hospital．When James and I drove back home on Sunday afternoon，we got stuck(堵车)in a car accident．Oh，my God! Next time if 1 want a rest，I’11 stay in the 50 .

We moved to a new area when our son was in Grade Five. Before we moved, we took him to spend half a day at his new school. There he saw his new classmates and teachers. He enjoyed the visit. During the almost 150-kilometre drive home, he told us that he had told some of the students the dace when we would move there. And he had also invited them to visit us.
The moving day, a Saturday, was a busy day. We arrived at our new house at noon. About an hour later, kids began to come and soon one of them invited our son to his house to play for the afternoon.
By the time he returned, he knew where most of the kids lived and the histories of their families.
On Monday morning, the doorbell rang just before the time he would leave for school. Then it rang again and again.
By the time he was ready, we had eight young boys waiting to walk to school with him on his first day. They all live near us.
I asked them if their parents had sent them. The answers surprised and pleased me, "No, we just came so that he would have someone to walk with." and "It is the right thing to do."
The friendships were formed(形成) from that day. We have lived here for nearly six years and the same group of kids still play together, go to parties on weekends together, and surfing the Internet together.
I am still thinking how welcoming and kind those kids are. And how lucky my son is to have them as friends.
