What’s it like to have a foreign friend eating, watching football matches and hanging out with you? The answer is – absolutely (绝对的) fantastic!

It all began in April. His name is Jean, a boy of my age from France. My family prepared a welcome party to surprise him and make him feel at home. We all were excited about living with a foreign boy and hoped to make his stay as interesting as possible. The first thing I noticed about him was his politeness. When we were eating together, he always said “thanks” when my parents cooked food for him.

As I got to know him better, I found out we had a common interest – football. His love for football impressed me. He told me that he likes PSG, a French football club, so we watched the Europe Champion League together. When PSG lost a point, he hit the sofa and sighed. When the team scored a goal, he cheered and shared his happiness with me.

Also, both of us like spending time outdoors. Later that day, we went on a trip to Shuangshan Island, where we rode horses and enjoyed ourselves. He said that he liked the trees there very much and seeing them reminded him of trees back in France.

Happy days always go by too quickly. I felt happy to have the chance to share such unforgettable memories with my new French friend.

In 2000, at the age of 56, Jeff was going to take a difficult and dangerous journey in the Arctic. He was planning to walk to the North Pole all by himself, pulling his food, tent and other things behind him in two sledges (雪橇). Because the Arctic is covered with ice and water, he would sometimes have to sit on his sledges and use them like a boat.

Jeff was seven days into his journey in the Arctic. It was dark and terribly cold ( -35℃ ).In face of this terribly low temperature, he had made good progress across the ice. Suddenly, the ice was broken and one of his sledges fell into the sea. Jeff needed to get it back, so he had to put his hand into the ice-covered water. Once he had got the sledge back, Jeff put up his tent, lit a fire and tried to warm up his cold hand. It was no help--his hand was seriously hurt as it had been in the cold for so long. He radioed for help, and an airplane was sent to save him. Finally, he arrived at a hospital in Canada. The doctors there said he hurt his left hand in the icy water. They saved his hand and advised him not to travel to the North Pole any more.
