In northern Scotland there is a long deep lake called Loch Ness. More than 200 meters deep, it is the largest lake in the UK. People say a big monster (怪兽) lives in its dark, cold waters. It weighs more than 1,000 kilos and is at least ten meters long. Some people say it has a head like a horse. Others say it looks like a snake. Many people travel to Loch Ness to look for this strange monster, but only a few people have seen it. At least, they say they have seen it.
The Loch Ness Monster is a famous legend (传说). The first story about a monster in Loch Ness was told over 500 years ago, but the legend of the monster spread widely only in the twentieth century. In 1933, a husband and wife reported that they saw a big monster in Loch Ness. Severa! people have taken photos, but at least one of them was a hoax (骗局). During the 1960s, a team was formed to look for the monster. They took many photos and made movies, but they were never able to find a monster.
There is no real fact that a monster lives in Loch Ness, but there is also no fact that one doesn't live. One thing is true about Loch Ness: there are a lot of tourists there.

It was a summer evening. Rose was in the yard watching the stars with her family. Rose felt bored because all the stars were the same. As the whole family looked at the sky, Rose looked at the ground.She saw a lovely cat sitting beside her feet. Then she gave him something to eat and called him Frank.
That summer, Rose fed Frank every day. But she couldn't make the decision to take him into her house. Frank just came at about six o'clock every evening. Rose would feed him whatever she could find. She didn't know where he went after meals, but she knew he would always come back the next day.
Though the weather changed, their routine didn't change. Then winter came. In the first cold month, Frank came five times a week. During the next month, he only came every three days. By the end of the year, Rose hadn't seen Frank for two weeks. Rose was very worried. She told her mother about it. "Don't worry, honey," said her mum. "I think Frank will appear again when it warms up,And when he comes, I think you can invite him to move inside." "Really? Thank you, Mum!" Rose said happily. She was so eager to see her friend again.
