Last winter holiday, I visited a village with only 11 houses. T【小题1】 the village was very small, I s【小题2】a whole day in it.

The village became well-known because of Grandpa Huang's hard work. He bought a house there over 30 years ago, but in 2010 the village was to be pulled down. In o 【小题3】to save the old village, Grandpa Huang painted on the walls of his own house and other houses. He painted things that he liked. In the village, there were many paintings of animals, such as cats and birds. The most p【小题4】paintings for visitors were famous people. One of them was a picture of Andy Lau, my favourite singer. I liked him very much. It is said that Grandpa Huang painted the super singers because he is also a great fan of them.

I really had a   w【小题5】time in the village and wished to visit it again.

Altay is a beautiful place in Xinjiang, China. It is famous 【小题1】 its beautiful natural places and rich culture.

One of the 【小题2】 (popular) places in Altay is the Kanas Lake (喀纳斯湖), often described as a “pearl (珍珠) on the grassland”. High mountains are around the lake and offer amazing beauty. Another must-see natural place 【小题3】 (be) the Altay Mountains, which run along the border (边界) of China, Mongolia (蒙古国) and Russia. The 【小题4】 (mountain) are covered in thick forests in summer and with white snow in winter. 【小题5】 you’re interested in the culture, you can visit the Kazakh settlements (哈萨克族村落). You can learn about their 【小题6】 (tradition) way of life and enjoy their fantastic music there.

In 【小题7】 (first) word, Altay is a wonderful place 【小题8】 (visit). Whether you are a nature lover or a culture lover, Altay has something to offer everyone. So why not plan 【小题9】 trip to Altay and experience its beauty and enjoy 【小题10】 (you), my dear friends?
