My Experience on Le Tour de France The sporting event I went to was Le Tour de France - except it wasn't! For one year only the (1)... stages took place near to where I live in South Yorkshire, but more of that later. The event is a world-famous cycling race. It (2)... place every year, in a series of stages which are mainly in France, but it does occasionally pass through other countries. I think it (3) ... around 1903 and has taken place each year since then apart from during the two world wars when obviously it was suspended. The cyclists (4)... professional riders, and the tour is grueling. The route changes each year, but always includes both hilly and mountain stages, fast flat sections and covers a huge distance of some three and a half thousand kilometers over about 23 days. I am told there are about 20 teams or so each year, each with nine riders. To be honest, 1 (5)... very confused about how it is all timed and organized, but I do know that for each stage, the rider who has completed it in the fastest time gets to wear a yellow jersey for the next stage of the tour. The race has fallen foul of cheating over the years; famously Lance Armstrong who (6)... it some seven times I think was later banned for drug-taking. However, more recently cycling has cleaned up its act and gained in popularity. In 2014, a decision (7)... made to have the Grand Depart-the start of the Tour de France in South Yorkshire. This part of England where I live has fantastic scenery and very, very steep hills that were deemed suitably challenging of the super- fit and (8)... cyclists. Although I've never previously been (9)... in cycling, some of my friends are, and with such a world-famous event happening on my doorstep I wouldn't have wanted to (10) ... out. On the day of the race itself, lots of roads were closed. I (11)... up with some friends and we caught a tram as far out of the city as we could, and then walked the final stages to a good viewing point along the route. I (12)... no idea what to expect but it was amazing! The weather was (13)..., and Yorkshire and Sheffield folk had turned out in droves. I think about 2.5 million of us lined the route over the weekend it was passing through. I climbed up a bank and hung onto a tree to get a good vantage point as the cyclists raced through in the peloton (a new word for me that I learned whilst spectating). To be completely honest, the actual cyclists (14)... by in an instant, what made the event fun to watch was the build-up and the atmosphere. The race was led by a convoy of floats and support vehicles. There was lots of good-natured banter and sharing of food and snacks as the crowds waited for the bikes to (15)..., and plenty of people in hilarious fancy dresses on French or cycling themes. Bunting was hanging everywhere, and brightly painted yellow bikes were scattered along the route. The weather showed off our Yorkshire hills and scenery at its very best, it was awesome! I was really proud to be one of the (16)... on what was a once in a lifetime opportunity to (17) .... The Tour de France passing through practically on my doorstep (I live in Sheffield). The race director for the event later (18)... Yorkshire's Grand Depart as the "grandest" in the 111-year history of the race, it was wonderful to be part of that... it hasn't made me want to take up cycling, though those hills are ferocious! pilihan opening suporters see met had describe takes started won miss competitive get gorgeous passed interested come was are

The Donkey of GuizhouOnce upon a time, there was a donkey in Guizhou. Someone officious shipped one there, but finding no use for it, he set it loose at the foot of the mountain. A tiger ran out from the mountains. When he saw this big tall thing, he thought it must be divine. He quickly hid himself in the forest and surveyed it from under cover, sometimes the tiger ventured a little nearer but still kept a respectful distance.One day the tiger came out again. Just then the donkey gave a loud bray, I thinking the donkey was going to eat him, the tiger hurriedly ran away. After a while, he sneaked back and watched the donkey carefully. He found that though it had a huge body it seemed to have no special ability. After a few days, the tiger gradually became accustomed to its braying and was no longer so afraid. Sometimes, he even came near and circled around the donkey.Later the tiger became bolder. Once, he walked in front of the donkey and purposely bumped it. This made the donkey so angry that it struck out his hind legs and kicked wildly. Seeing this the tiger was very gleeful, Such a big thing as you can do so little!’ With a roar, he pounced on the donkey and ate it up. Was there a donkey in Guizhou? When did the tiger hide himself in the forest and survey it from under cover? Why did the tiger hurry run away? Why did the donkey feel angry to the tiger? What did the donkey do then? tolong bantu kerjakan🥹🥹🥹

In marine habitats, a number of small creatures are involved in a "cleaning symbiosis." At least six species of small shrimp, frequently brightly colored, crawl over fish, picking off parasites and cleaning injured areas. This is not an accidental occurrence, because fish are observed to congregate around these shrimp and stay motionless while being inspected. Several species of small fish (wrasses) are also cleaners, nearly all of them having appropriate adaptations such as long snouts, tweezers-like teeth, and bright coloration. Conspicuous coloration probably communicates that these animals are not prey. several species of fish are unlikely to be eaten by big fish because ________ a. they clean the parasites found in marine habitats b. they stay motionless while being inspected c. they are very brightly coloured cleaner fish d. they have appropriate adaptation as cleaners e. they usually gather around other creatures
