    The price of hotels in Britain is going up 1 at any time since the war. There are a number of reasons for this but the 2 all is the Government’s economic policy. Managers in factories are not satisfied with 3 so they are attracted to the idea of owning 4 business. 5 Britain’s weather is often disappointing, the tourist industry is growing. Many people 6 like to combine a 7 holiday with the opportunity of improving their English. It is therefore not surprising that businessmen are buying hotels.

　　“You can always see a beautiful sky at the top of the mountain, but you can't see it before you reach the top.”

　　Whenever the sun 1 and the blue sky came up, my father and I used to climb the mountain near my house. 2 together, my father and I used to have a lot of conversations through which I learned 3 from his experiences.

　　This has largely influenced my life. 4 the mountain-climbing that we both enjoyed, we couldn't have had enough time to 5 together because my father was very busy. I believe mountaineering is really 6 . It gave me time to talk with my father and to be in deep thinking as well as 7 my patience. I love climbing mountains, to get away from the noise and pollution of the 8 , and breathe the fresh air.

　　One time we climbed a very high mountain. It was so 9 for me because I was only ten years old.

You can always enjoy the 14 of many waterfalls and countless peaks and valleys at the top of the mountain, 15 you can't when you are halfway up. Only there at the top, can you have all of those things, just like in 16 .”

　　At that time, I was too young to 17 his thoughts, but after that, I got new 18 and confidence. Finally, I found myself 19 at the top of the mountain. And there, I could see the whole of the sky, which was as 20 as crystal(水晶).

If the game 10 continue, people who bought tickets are given “rain checks”. These are 11 tickets that will let them see a 12 game for free.

“Rain Check” now means a second 13 at something. Often ,a rain check has nothing to 14 with rain.

Stores may offer “rain checks “ 15 they sell out all of a product a television set , for example 16 a special low price. After all the TV sets are 17 , the store gives rain checks to 18 who wanted to buy one. The rain check allows a person to buy the TV set later, at the 19 low price, after the store receives some 20 from the factory.

“Rain Check”also is used in social 21 .It’s a way of 22 aninvitation, but for a later time.

You may ask for a “Rain Check” if you are 23 to a friend’s house for dinner, but can’t be there. You say ,“I would love to 24 you for dinner, but I’m busy. Could I have a rain check?”You are asking , in other 25 ,if you could join your friend for dinner at another time.
