Alison is my best friend.Her family won a 5﹣day stay in a mountain house.Her mom and dad said I could join.A few weeks later，we （1）　　.

    "What a great place!" Alison's dad said.

    "It's looking like a little cloudy，" said Alison's mom，looking at the sky.

    As you might have guessed，the clouds did mean （2）　 　.LOTS of rain.

    "I guess we'll have to find something else to do，"said Alison.

    We （3）　　 a couple of board games and a pack of cards.At first it was fun， （4）　 　 we ended up playing those games for about 30 hours，stopping only to eat and sleep!

    "I can not play any more，" I said on the third day. "How about we just read by ourselves for a while？"

    "I have a better idea，" said Alison. "How about we （5）　　 instead？"

    "I think a little quiet time would be nice，" I said，opening a book I had brought.

    "Oh，come on!Don't be （6）　　.I'll pick the first song，" Alison started singing.

    "Could you please leave me alone？" I snapped （怒气冲冲地说）.

    "Wow!Happily!" she sapped hack. "How about we both leave each other alone forever？!"

    This makes me think of the expression "too much of a good thing".Alison's dad said， "You know how one piece of cake tastes （7）　 　，but 10 pieces of cake is too much.Spending every second with anyone—even your favorite person—is like （8）　　 too much cake."

    "I guess that makes sense，" Alison said.She looked at （9）　. "I'm sorry for not understanding."

    "I'm sorry for snapping at you，" I said.

    The weather got way better on the fourth day，so we actually got to go outside.The hiking was really fun!The happiest part of all is that Alison and I are still great （10）　　.We just make sure to give each other some peace when we need it.
