I. A Horrible Experience
   I used to be fond of skating. But now things have changed because of a horrible experience.
   One winter, the weather was so cold that water turned into ice. One day on my way home, when seeing a frozen lake, I thought that the ice must be thick enough to support me. Being so interested in skating, I couldn’t help going down and sliding on the ice. Suddenly, I heard a sound of crack.
