All day, I seem to remember, I        on the sands with strange        children. We made houses and gardens, and         the tide (潮汐) destroy (破坏, 毁坏) them. When the tide went out, we         over the rocks and looked down at the fish in the rock-pools.

There were        in one's pockets or good places where one could        ice-creams. Each day seemed a life-time.

I no longer wish to         any sand house or sand garden, and I dislike sweets.        , I love the sea and often feel sand running through my fingers.
Sometimes I         what my ideal (理想的) holiday will be like when I am        . All I want to do then, perhaps, will be to lie in bed, reading books about         who make houses and gardens with sands, who watch the incoming tide, who make        sick on too many ices.
