20.It was a Sunday morning,and I was in a terrible mood.Two of my friends had gone to the movies the night before and hadn't invited me.I was in my room thinking of ways to make them sorry when my father came in."Want to go for a ride today,Beck?It's a beautiful day."
"No!Leave me alone!"Those were the last words I said to him that morning.
My friends called and invited me to go to the mall with them a few hours later.I forgot to be mad at them and went.When I came home I found a note on the table.My mother put it where I would be sure to see it."Dad has had an accident.Please meet us at Highland Park Hospital".

My father could no more tell a lie than he could fly.He looked at me and said,"Sweetheart,I don't remember anything about that day,not before,during or after the accident.I remember kissing you goodnight the night before,though."He managed a weak smile.

4.On this foggy morning,my memory takes me back to the time when I lived in California.I remember my morning walks along the ocean greeted by all the purple flowers,accompanied(陪伴) by gentle breezes that greeted me,"Good morning!"

14.A disastrous competition is going on in England,with billions of dollars and hundreds of lives in danger.OK,that's not true.But competitors from around the world gathered on Thursday to compete for the title of 2012's World's Biggest Liar.
Each participant is given up to five minutes to make up the best lie in the competition,which was started in honor of 19th-century Bridge Inn owner Will Ritson,who was reportedly famous for his lies.Competitors gather at the Bridge Inn every year for the competition,a small pub in northwestern England.Anyone can take part in the competition.Well,almost anyway; the reporters note that lawyers and politicians are banned,who is said to enjoy"an unfair advantage"in the proceedings (进程).
A study published this past July in the journal Evolution & Human Behavior found that nearly all lies are detectable through visible facial muscle (肌肉) reactions in the person telling a lie."Thus,while interpersonal deception (欺骗) often is highly successful,signs of hidden emotional states are communicated clearly to the informed observer,"the study concluded.
A churchman of Carlisle reportedly holds what may be the greatest lie of all time in the competition,simply stating,"I have never told a lie in my life."
In 2003,Abrie Krueger of South Africa became the first non-Brit to win the competition.Ironically,Krueger was accused by some of cheating.
In 2006,comedian Sue Perkins became the first female to win the competition,telling a tale about people riding camels to work as a result of climate change.

1.Do you love running?It is a good exercise,yet many people find it boring.But what if making your morning jog a creative one?Like jumping from walls and over gaps,and ground rolls?Just like the James Bond in the movie Casino Royale?Bond jumps down from a roof to a windowsill and then runs several blocks over obstacles on the way.It is just because of Bond's wonderful performances that the sport has become popular worldwide.

A parkour lover said,"I love parkour because its philosophy has become my life,my way to do everything."
