What is standard English? Is it spoken in Britain, the US, Canada, Australia, India and New Zealand?                 , there is no such thing as standard English. Many people believe the English spoken on TV and the radio is s             English.

My name is Wang Kun.               middle school, my sister Wang Wei and I have              taking a great bike trip. Two years ago she bought an expensive mountain bike and then she p             me t            buy one. Last year, she visited our c            , Dao Wei and Yu Hang at their college in Kunming. They are Dai and            in western Yunnan P             near the Lancang River, the Chinese part of the river that is called the Mekong River in other countries. Wang Wei soon got them  i            in cycling too. After g           from college, we finally got the c           to take a bike trip. I asked my sister, "Where are we going?" It was my sister who first had the idea to cycle along the e            Mekong River from where it begins to where it ends. Now she is planning our s             for the trip.
  I              my sister but she has one serious s            . She can be really s            . Although she didn't know the best way of getting to places, she i              that she organize the trip p            . Now, I know that the proper way is always her way. I kept asking her, "When are we leaving and when are we coming back?" I asked her w             she had looked at a map yet. Of course, she hadn't; my sister doesn't             
details. So I told her that the s             of the Mekong is in Qinghai Province. She gave me a d           look—the kind that said she would not               . When I told her that our journey would begin at an a             of more than 5,000 meters, she seemed to be excited about it. When I told her the air would be hard to b            and it would be very cold, she said it would be an interesting experience. I know my sister well. Once she has             , nothing can change it. Finally, I had to              .
Several months before our trip, Wang Wei and I went to the library. We found a large a             with good maps that showed d           of world geography. From the atlas we could see that the Mekong River begins in a g            on a Tibetan mountain. At first the river is small and the water is clear and cold. Then it begins to move quickly. It becomes r             as it passes through deep v            , traveling across western Yunnan Province. Sometimes the river becomes a w            and enters wide valleys. We were both surprised to learn that half of the river is in China. After it leaves China and the high a              , the Mekong becomes wide，brown and warm. As it enters Southeast Asia, its p            slows. It makes wide b             or meanders through low valleys to the p             where rice grows. At last, the river d            enters the South China Sea.
