I'd like to answer both questions.

1) I think the second wow is the biggest wow in my point of view. It is because going through a entirely
pitch-black ocean is so amazing and interesting. Seeing how the fishes swim, sharks swimming around
me is always my dream. By the way, I am quite surprised that you can ignite up a torch in the ocean,
and the light of the torch must be very strong.

2) I think the biggest wow in my entire life is to overcome fear and ride on a 360 degrees roller-coaster when I was nine years old. At first, I was so scared that I refused to ride on it, but all my friends had tried it before, so I thought that I had to give it a try. When the roller-coaster arrived at the station, I was so nervous that I could feel my sweats dripping on my T-shirt. I got on the roller-coaster and waited for it to start. The roller-coaster started as usual, and when it reaches the point that it has to rotate 360 degrees, I took a deep breath and grabbed tightly at the roller- coaster's handle. The roller-coaster reaches the highest point of the track and the feeling was so comfortable and the air was so cool. I was like WOW and was so excited to play again. I learnt that we should take the initiative and ambition to achieve a goal.

I think the second wow experience is the biggest,becauce dive across a deep dark ocean is so romantic.I always wanted to try out diving but thanks to the pandemic I didn't had any chance

2: My first and biggest wow in my life is to get 98 marks in Maths.When I was little,my Math wasn't good enough so I got 58 marks in my third exam in P.4.Luckily , my teacher cheered me up and I started to study hard.It wasn't easy but I knew I had to get high marks.I studied so hard that in the final exam in P.5, I got 98 marks!that was a big wow especially for me!

1. I think the biggest wow is the third one. It is because diving in a sunken warship is a rare experience and it is fun to explore in a warship that you have never seen before. The structure of a warship is quite complicated. It is hard to find a way out before your oxygen runs out.

Q1. In my opinion, I think that diving into the sunken warship was the biggest WOW. It is because when you are navigating your way around the warship, you can have a visual of how life was for those sailors who fought bravely during the time of the war. Also, you may find find ancient tools and weapons hidden in corners of the ship, and take as much pictures as you want with an underwater camera. Even though it may not be in perfect condition, it is still a spectacular sight in the middle of the ocean. It is a once in a blue moon experience and we must treasure our glorious moments in our life.
Q2: There was a WOW moment in life for me when my parents took my to Japan, Hokkaido for skiing. After we took the ski-lift to the peak of the mountain on my pair of skis. I started to get extremely nervous. The chilly wind howled like a ghost and I was still an amateur at skiing. My parents tried to encourage me to face my fears and overcome them. So, I took a deep breath and skied down the mountain. I grabbed my ski poles tightly, navigating through the trees and finally reached the end of the ski path. I felt great and the reason I could experience this was because I faced my fears bravely. It was my greatest WOW experience and I hope I can go skiing again.

Q1.I think the second WOW is the biggest wow moment.It is because night diving is very scary.When you are diving in a pitch-dark ocean,you cannot see anything.But when you switch on the torch,you can see fish are everywhere,and beautiful corals are surrounding on your side,that was glorious.So I think the second one is the biggest wow.

1. I think the biggest wow is the second one. It is because diving at night is very terrifying and fun experience. When it is pitch black, you can barely see a thing. Even when you are at home, when you turn off all the lights you might still be a little scared. At the same time, when you see so many sea creatures in a completely pitch dark ocean, it is so wonderful.I would personally like to have a go and see this view.

Q1.I think the biggest has to be the second one.The main reason is because venturing into an entirely pitch black ocean is quite interesting,a fresh experience indeed.I can’t even imagine being inside such place,with sea creatures surrounding you,how does it even feel like?

Q2.I think my WOW moment is going on an entirely vertical water slide,they put you in a coffin-like space and send you through a chute at top speed,then you come crashing down into the pool underneath.I was never a fan of getting wet and was afraid of heights,so that was definitely a breakthrough of some kind of myself.

1.I think the third WOW is the biggest as it is like once in a blue moon,a rare experience and it is also very nice to take a 360% view there or take some photos and explore.
2.I think the biggest wow moment I've experienced was that I went to Osaka and climbed a 12floor tower,I think.At first,I was terrified as I am fear of heights and refused to climb up,however, my father kept encourage me so I started trying to climb.After a while I started to be good at climbing and faced my fears bravely.At last I climbed to the top and I think it was actually fun.

1) In my opinion, the third wow is the biggest wow. It is because scuba diving inside a sunken navy ship is very precious and it must be an unforgettable experience. Only navy sailors have seen the insides of a navy ship apart from scuba divers.
2)I once came across a hard maths question that I was afraid of. But then I tried to crack it and then the result was WAOW. The equation was about the number Wau and is a number that is bamboozling many mathematicians.

Q1. I think the third WOW is definitely the biggest. Imagine diving and exploring the sunken warships in World War 2, where artillery launch bombs and more. Diving inside the warship is amazing! It's just like finding secret treasure, and you may find something special or cool in the warship, such as maybe treasure left by the crew on the ship during the war, or weapons that are not used. That's a great experience to know more about naval warships and the history of mankind, letting us learn the cruelty of war.

Q2. When I was a kid, probably 6-7 years old, I visited a Dinosaur theme park in Thailand. And there was a thrilling dinosaur ride that was 3D and so scary, and the staff there even recommended us to think carefully before we get into it because it's horror. I was terrified and imagining the frightening possibilities of the experience, thinking that a 3D T-Rex may suddenly pop out of nowhere and scare me. Though I was scared, I knew this was a rare chance because I may only have this opportunity to come to this theme park and enjoy the ride, so I entered the ride reluctantly. Unexpectedly, though it was very scary and shocking, generally it was an exciting and fun experience and I felt lucky that I made the correct decision to face my fear and overwhelm it.

I would like to answer question one.
In my opinion, I think that the last WOW in Mr.Richard’s sharing was the biggest WOW.It is because that Mr.Richard could go into a war ship back in the Second World War which was cool and was lucky enough to find his way out in the complicated rooms in the ship when his oxygen was almost running out.

Q1. I think the second WaOW is the biggest.Diving at night must be very scary.I can’t even bear to think about the creatures lurking in the deep dark ocean, just the feeling of a fish swimming past me would cause me to scream and dart back up to the boat, thinking it was a shark.I also fear that I will drown in these mysterious waters too.But if it is really safe and there is a coach to guide me, I think I can try to overcome my fears like Mr. Richard said.
Q2. When I was four years old, I was super afraid of needless. Every time my mother brings me to get vaccinated, I would cry and cry and cry…..You get the idea.So my mother would grab my hand and pull me towards the vaccination room,I would put my hands on anything That can be grabbed and squirm my way out.This kept happening until I was 6 years old.That time, I was already in the vaccination room.I was held back by some nurses and the doctor prepared to inject the needle into me.Guess what?I was struggling so hard to escape that half the needle broke in my arm.After that,I learned that if I relaxed when I was being vaccinated, the bleeding in the wound will not be too serious and it will not hurt so much.
This is my answer and sharing for the two questions.
Thank you.

Q2. When I was very young,I took the MTR with my family.At that time,I didn't want to sit with those strangers,it was because I think they were strange and they make me feel scared.So when I took the MTR,I willsit to my parents but not those 'strangers'But when I grow up,I found that if I don't mind those strangers,I can sit with those'strangers'.
So, I learn that I don't really need to scare anything because it must have a thing to solve this 'scared'.
These are my two questions' answers.
Thank you.

The third one is the biggest wow because, who doesn‘t like exploring sunken warships? From Mr Richard’s description, it was like an underwater labrynith. And he even got lost, which, is not great, but adds to the excitement.
I won’t answer the second question, I have no memorable wow moments.

Q.1 I think the biggest WaOW moment is the third one. It is because it is a very big challenge to overcome the fear of getting lost with no help in the ship and can't get out, you will probably feel panicked and you may die in the ship. 😢
Q.2 I have a WaOW moment that I want to share. Once, I have visited the Ocean Park Water Land and I felt stressed when I was lining up to play the Rainbow Rush. But when I actually played once, I immediately loved it and wanted to play again. At last, I played thrice! That's toally amazing!
So, I have learnt that don't feel scared before you really tried once. Be brave to face challenges!

Q1: I definitely think the third wow is the biggest one. I mean, it's not every day you get to go scuba diving period, let alone find a sunken ship at the bottom of the sea. One thing I would like to ask though is did you find anything remarkable in that sunken ship?

Q2. So this was actually fairly recent, on the first of October this year. We went to Ocean Park. Now, if you've ever went to Ocean Park's Thrill Mountain before, you'll know that as soon as you leave the escalator, you'll see something called the Flash instantaneously. What is it? It's a ride that will turn you 180 degrees up in the air while the seats are spinning at a fast speed. Because I had made a promise to my friends that I would go on the Flash next time I went to Ocean Park with them, which was not a good idea since I was deathly afraid of heights, I was about to go on the ride. I took a deep breath, said a quick prayer and sat on the seats. When the ride first started, I had my eyes welded shut because of how scared I was. However, halfway through the ride, I opened my eyes. What I saw was a stunning view of the entirety of Ocean Park. It would have been breathtaking had it not have been for the intense g-forces trying to rip my head off. Even then, the view was still amazing and to this day I am still questioning myself why I didn't go on it the first time I saw it.
Moral of the story, try something new every once in a while. Who knows, it might be unexpected and maybe even deserving of a "wow".

2. Two years ago, when I was nine, I went the first time to Korea, when I first saw snow. My friends have all had experiences of seeing snow and even more-snowboarding. At first I thought about the risk of falling
or rolling off mountains, which was unreasonable because there were safety rails. Until finally I was persuaded to g ive it a go. After a short starter course. I got the hang of it all in one week. I found out it wasn't that scary. So I overcame my fears and learnt to like snowboarding.

Q1. I think the second and third WOW were both amazing, but the third stands out a lot, since you rarely (or almost never) get the chance to even see a sunken ship, let alone diving and exploring in one. It must've been astonishing to see the marine lives gathering along the ship, too!

Q1: In my opinion, I think the third wow is the biggest. It is because, it is a huge difficult challenge to over come your fear of scuba diving in a warship and there’s no one near you to help you. Also, it must be a rare activity too.
Q2: When I was 7 years old, my parents brought me to Ocean Park to have fun. When I was small, my fear was ridding a roller coaster. So, on that day I went to Ocean Park, I played on the Arctic Blast and after I have played once, I knew that it was not scary at all! After that, I played again and again. I think that experience deserves a “wow”. Also I learnt that we should not be scared, we should face fears bravely, thank you.

1) I think the second wow is the biggest wow because going through a entirely pitch-black ocean is so amazing and exciting. I think diving around is always epic. By the way, I am curious that you can ignite up a torch in the ocean.
2)I think my biggest wow is a roller coaster which goes back and forth.I didn't wanted to play it but my height barely taller than two cm of the limit and I didn't want my parents disappointed , so I went with my aunt and my mum.I was frightened because when it stps,it means it goes back.

1) In my opinion I think the second WOW is the biggest. Let me explain. Mr Richard was an experienced day diver, but never tried night diving. In an entirely pitch-black ocean, it is really daunting and exciting at the same time. If I were Mr Richard, I would probably friek out. The WOW moment was that turning on a flashlight actually makes the ocean no difference! As a day diver, realising the night looks the same, with fish, corals and everyting that you see in the day, it definitely is a huge WOW.
2) My WOW experience happened a couple of years ago, when my parents took me to a bungee jump. It located at a valley in Nepal, and it was really, really deep. My parents loved those challenges, so I had to play it with them. When I buckled up, I was so scared that I literally hesitated for half an hour! However, I was determined after the time and jumped off. I could feel my heart getting crushed a bit, and wind was zooming past me. By the way, I vomitted after the jump. After all, it was a life-time experience and an enormous WOW.

2. Please share with us your WOW moment in life where you needed to overcome some kind of fear/challenge.
My biggest wow moment where I needed to overcome some kind of fear was when I went to Ngong Ping Ma on Shan with my family. It was the third time I went there, and I was kind of expert on hiking there. We went halfway through the mountain and the view was great, we lifted our heads to look at the bright sky, but we are terrified that we found that we got trapped by spider webs, there are spiders on spider webs on the branches and spider webs across the pavement on the sky, almost like falling down, ready to have afternoon tea. My younger brother ran first, he ran away from the web (I never knew he was so brave) at that time, I was like 'Bro... why don't you wait me?' then after seconds of panicking, my dad and mum, holding in hand, rushed away, I was the only one left in the trap, I yelled, 'Help!' then terrible things happened, the hand-sized spiders moved closer to me, I cannot choose but only to put my backpack on my head and run away from the trap, my mum and dad are taking videos of me I was 'emotionally damaged' and ran too them, took their phone and deleted the video. After deleting, I was thinking 'WOW! Actually, I'm kind of brave too, braver than my brother, I hope?' Now, I'm less fear of small spiders, but still a bit scared of big ones.

1. There are 3 WOW moments in this sharing. Which of them do you think is the biggest one and why?
I think that the third WOW moment in the sharing is the biggest, as being trapped in a warship is quite dangerous, without the diving instructor. First, if the gas tank ran out the air before you got out, you will almost have to say goodbye to the World. Second, you may hit buttons on the ship that are still functional and may do something WOW (the bad one!) such as maybe you will make the ship self-destruction, or maybe turning on machine guns and so on. It might be hard to escape from some traps (made not on prepose) on a warship, especially underwater as you got time limit of oxygen and also most of the diving gears are big and heavy so it may be harder to get out. Also, I think Mr Richard was so lucky that he escaped as I heard that some divers got trapped in ships and died inside before.

1.For me,it was the first wow that felt to me was the biggest.The fact that Mr.Richard overcame his fears and (no offence) decided not to be a coward and joined his friends for a dive.I learned that sometimes you have to face your fears in order to dicover something new and wonderful.
2.As for my wow moments,it was facing my fears of heights.(espcially slopes.)I remember one time when in about late April,I went to Lower Shing Mun Reservoir for a little hike.In the beggining,we were only walking on car roads,which was fine by me,but then,to my horror,we had to hike up a gigantic slope completely out of dirt and sand!The unsteady slippery dirt and sand slope!As I was walking up the slope,my heartbeat was like about 180 bpm and my legs felt like jelly.To make it even worse,I had to take pictures on the middle of slopes,which made my journey to the top harder than it already was.At one point,the path beneath my foot was feeling more slippery than usual and I realised I took the slipperly path.What happened was I was supposed to take the sand-covered path because there were more holes for me to grip,but I chose the grass path,because it looked better,which in reality,it was not,and I was stuck there.I didn't know if I should go across to the sand path or go back down back to the split.I later chose to walk across the slope beacuse it was faster.During the walk,I tried my best not to look down,but I accidentaly took a glance.But to my surprise,the scene was magnificent.I had a bird eye view of the whole slope.The trees on the sides of the slope were like lights beside the plane runaway,cheering me to keep going.Finally I reached the top of the slope and took some nice pictures,and after that had a picnic too.It was all well worth it.

Question 1:
I think that the second WAOW was the biggest among all. It is because it turned from pitch black to something that is very unexpected and the view of the ocean had a big difference from just a normal diving.

1.I think the most biggest WOW moment is that you had the first sea
dive because you overcomed your fear, that's really surprising. Although discovered the old ship was also amazing,but I think if you didn't overcome your fear,you couldn't see the ship.

2.My fear was that I was scared about swimming which is similar to sea dive.One time,I went to a swimming pool which is near to my home.I tried to swim but water kept getting into my nose.I felt painful.Then, the later years ,I didn't swim seriously I, instead of it,I played water in the swimming pool.Last year, I went to the same swimming pool .I thought of it :I must break the fear. Therefore, I did.Afterwards,I swam more and more. This breakthrough turns me to a fan of swimming.

1. I personally think that the biggest WOW is the third one , because having the experience to look or dive into a drunken war ship is very rare some people may never dive into one in their whole lifetime, and besides that, going into the war ship and got lost is very scary and it must be very dangerous without the diving instructor, but when you found your way out yourself and went back it must be very WOW!

2. When I was 8 years old I went to my first roller coaster experience, I remember that time I was frightened to death after I saw the huge roller coaster, and when sat on the rollercoaster chair I felt my heart beating and felt my back sweating. When the rollercoaster stated moving I closed my eyes and felt the air blow around my body , but after closing my eyes I felt nothing , I wasn’t floating I didn’t feel like I would fly away anymore ,so I opened my eyes ad enjoyed the ride , but when I went down the rollercoaster I wanted to vomit ,I felt awful , because the centrifugal force was too big and I had a little asthma inherited from my parent , so I would feel awful after riding any kind of games with centrifugal force . Nowadays, I feel way better after going on rollercoasters ,but I still feel a little bit scared.

2. A few years ago, my family and I went to a Zhuhai amusement park. We rode on a water roller coaster. I was quite scared before the ride because I have never ridden on the triller rides before. When the roller coaster reached the highest point in the ride, I held my breath and ZOOM! It went straight down in a blink of an eye, my clothes and pants were all wet. Although I was frightened when the roller coaster rushed into the water, I am not afraid of the triller rides now because I have overcome my fear of heights since then. This was the WOW moment in my life.

I think my WOW moment in my life was that I became the champion of the English Solo Verse Speaking competition in the 71st Hong Kong School Speech Festival. I had felt nervous and excited since I participated in the festival for the first time. It took me several months of practice and rehearsal in order to attempt to have an excellent performance in the speech festival.
Before my speech, I felt a little bit anxious about my performance. When I heard the bell rang from the adjudicator, I strived to show my best performance. While waiting for the result, I was extremely nervous. Subsequently, when I heard my name announced along with the title of the first place, I was flabbergasted. To my amazement, I had won the first prize in the festival! Becoming the champion was only ever in my dreams in before. It was exciting news to me as all my effort finally paid-off. It was true that my hard work would earn me a big award. I think this was the most WOW moment in the past eleven years of my life.

My dad has tried night diving before too and according to Mr Richard's explanation as well as my dad's, i could imagine how much courage you need to dive down to the pitch black sea ! Also, my dad said that all the fishes were sleeping on the seabed, he touched them but they didn't move at all.
Q2. Back when i was about fiver years old, i still couldn't ride a bicycle. I was scared of falling down or loosing control of the bike. Then, one time when i was practicing biking, i imagined that all of my loved ones and friends were beside me, so i forgot about the fears and eventually i overcame them. Now i have a hobby of cycling ever weekend.

1. I think the 2nd Wow was the best. Because diving in pitch back darkness is unusual and when you switch on the light in the ocean, it creates a suspenseful but beautiful neon-like colour. And you can see many more beautiful creatures like Angel Fish and many more!

2.I think my Wow moment in life is when I went to Japan’s Amusement Park to tryout the 2nd Longest Roller Coaster, at first I glanced in the gigantic coaster and I thought, “It is gonna be a challenge to overcome it!” As I rode on it, I was in awe! It was as good as any Roller Coaster on Earth! As I looked in the back, my mum was screaming like she was about to be eaten anytime, she eventually lost her voice that night!😂

1. I think the third moment in the sharing is the most ‘wow’ moment. When Mr Richard went to a dark sea at night, it was totally different from morning that he couldn’t see anything. However, when he turned on his torch , he could see more and found that the sea animals were still active though it was nighttime. There were many sea creatures like sea turtles,fish…etc. I think it is the biggest wow because sometimes we are in the dark, there are still some beautiful and amazing things around us which we can appreciate and treasure. There are always surprises!


2. I think in my life , my biggest ‘wow’ is also about water, i.e. how I learn swimming. When I was young ,I was very scared of water and thought it was a monster that would eat me! At the beginning,I even didn’t want to touch the water,but soon, with my dad’s encouragement , I wanted to give a try, so I asked my dad to teach me how to swim. It was my first time! When I got in the swimming pool , wow, I found that actually it was not as terrible as I had thought. It was cool. After this experience, I was not scared of swimming anymore! I learn that we may sometimes need to some courage to have a breakthrough. And then you will not hesitate anymore. Now I love swimming very much!

1. I think the third WOW is the biggest.I cannot imagine diving underwater to a sunken warship! Personally, i pretty like histories and weapons, so i'd really want to try explore one of the sunken warships and enjoy the underwater view too! When I heard that you got lost in the warship, I was a little scared too. The warships are usually enormous and has a lot of doors and rooms, so getting out of the complicated warship while comforting the scariness of your mind in very WOW! I really want to dive underwater and enjoy the views, but i think i need to improve my basic swimming skills first.

2.I think my WOW moment is the experience of playing a swing in a trip of Taiwan. As it was a WOW moment, that was absolutely not an ordinary swing. I was 5 years old when I had the trip to Taiwan. We settled down in a cottage in the countryside. The views were beautiful, and i can see the Pacific Ocean down by the cliff next to the cottage.I experienced many WOW moments there, like seeing fireflies for the first time, but the most WOW for me is the experience of the swing. One morning, I followed the owner of the cottage to a place near the cliff. At that time, I finally saw the swing. It was roughly supported by two metal pillars, some ropes and a wooden plank. And down by the swing, it was a 300 meters deadly cliff. My father told me to try the swing. At first i was too scared that I ran away from it, but I barely managed to comfort myself and try it. I sat on the plank and my father started pushing it. I held the ropes tightly, closed my eyes and wouldn't let go. But after a while, I opened my eyes and what I was unforgettable . The sea was crystal clear, the cliffs were tremendous and the waves splashing to the shore amazing. I surely agree with Mr. Richard that after overcoming our fears, would make us experience some WOW moments and some unforgettable scenes.

1. In my opinion, the third WOW is the biggest WOW. Diving in a sunken warship is in itself a very terrifying experience since it’s easy to get lost if you are separated from your team and not be able to navigate. This is made worse with popular culture introducing ideas such as supernatural creatures, like undead sailors, in these kinds of settings. Many people would definitely be intimidated by this notion and get cold feet, including myself, in spite of the fact that being able to visit a monument of the Second World War. I am extremely impressed that the daring Mr. Richard was able to conquer his fears and dive there, and I am certain that the experience was fruitful - exploring weapons, cabins, relics, and the life of wartime sailors is not an easy opportunity to come by.

2. This WOW experience happened 3 years ago, when I was on vacation in London, England. Back then, one of my stops for the day was a countryside area where I could transverse treetops with wobbly bridges, zip lines, and the like. At that time, I was a timid person and was horrified by the prospect of travelling at such a high speed on a zip line which was many meters off the ground. Overcome by paranoia, I decided to back down in fear of plummeting and sustaining grave injuries. However, my mother, who always encouraged me to try anything new, told me to try it once. So I did. There was a huge adrenaline rush. The feeling of the wind brushing swiftly against my face was unforgettable and a WOW experience. Since then, I overcame my fear of heights, and more importantly, my paranoia when trying new things.

Q1.1. I think the third WOW was the biggest. I cannot even imagine diving underwater and taking a peep into a sunken warship! Firstly, walking into a warship was very stunning. You not only could look at the old warship closely but also could recall its history, which was also stunning. 80 years ago, the US navy was there fighting with the Japanese, looking back at the warship again, would be astonishing. When I heard that you got lost in the warship, I felt a little scared too. Warships are usually enormous and have a lot of corridors and pathways, like a maze, so getting out of the warship which has a very complicated structure is not an easy job. And, considering maybe, there was some ghost inside, comforting the scariness of your mind was very difficult to do, which made it very wow!
Q2: Before, I feared writing a lot. It was truly a very severe problem because, in English, there are two major ways to express myself, speaking and writing, and I should master both if I want to manage English well. So, I started to read articles that were written by famous authors and copied down the beautiful sentences in a notebook, this was the first step. Then, I started to understand and comprehend them, through different means. Lastly, I summoned my courage and started to write, write and write, in order to overcome the fear of writing. I spent an hour composing my first passage and after finishing it, the feeling was like you switched on the lights in the dark, it was so astonishing that I couldn’t describe it, the only word I could think of was:” Wow”.

Q1: I think the first wow is the biggest. It is because diving is a very exciting sport in the morning. We can see lots of sea animals in the ocean. Moreover, the first wow is about Mr. Richard's first time to go diving with his friends in Thailand. Diving is another feeling from swimming.
Q2: I think my biggest wow may be when i was the first time using the google classroom to hand in the homework to the teachers in google classroom. It was because i didn't know how to hand in the homework in google classroom. In my old school, we used google classroom just for seeing the messages that the teacher needs to tell us. That time i was so confused that how can i hand in the homework. I asked my parents and my teacher for help. Then, my friend Louie and my teachers helped me with it.

1.I think the second wow is the biggest. It is because the chance of having a night dive is very rare and although the sea was pitch dark, but when you opened your flashlights, the view was still very beautiful and you saw many fishes and coral.
2.My biggest wow moment in my life was hugging a koala in Austraila. It was my first time hugging any animal and the koala was very cute.

I prefer to answer both questions. My responses to them are listed below:
1. Personally, I reckon that the second WOW was the most colossal out of all three. The ocean was originally a big patch of inky pitch-black darkness, and Mr. Richard couldn't see anything at all. However, when he turned on his underwater flashlight, of which electricity power should be pretty strong for the beam of light to shine through, the underwater world of the sea instantly became a whole new world completely different than what it had been without the torch. Salmon and tuna swimming around elegantly like mermaids; clownfish and cod frolicking around playfully like a group of children; hammerheads and stingrays chopping through the water, what an amazing sight!
2. The most WOW moment was when I got my black belt. I was, and am, to this day when I am writing this answer, astounded that I could persevere through the various challenges that showed up on my way to black belt and greatness. My physical strength was so weak when I was a white belt that I could not break the wood boards required to pass the bel test to proceed. Nevertheless, I never gave up and successfully passed the belt test to continue pursuing my taekwondo career.

1.I think the third WOW has the most wow out of all.It is so exciting to be able to see a sunken warship that has been in a war.We might be able to see a sunken warship on TV,but in real life,that’s got to be rare.
It must also have lots of big guns.

I think the second one is the biggest WOW moment. Suba-diving is frightening but fun at night. You should be scared at the beginning because you can't see anything in a pitch black ocean at night. But the ocean became a magnificent view after the underwater flashlight was turned on. You could see various sea creatures swimming around you, just like they were greeting you there. It was really a fantastic moment!

Q2: To me, I think it is the experience that I had in Japan three years ago. On the third day of our trip, my parents brought me to a theme park. As my brother rushed towards the direction of riding different water slides, so I followed him. As we arrived there, I saw various water slides which I thought were fearful and dangerous. At that instant, my brother looked at me and said, "Don't be scared. You can do this!" So, I followed him into the queuing line and started to play. Later, I found that it was not scary at all. I even played for more than five times!

Q1. In my opinion, the third "wow" is the most fascinating. A sunken ship. I've never seen one before! (Of course, I am not old enough to dive) It might be an old pirate ship from the middle ages, or the enormous Titanic. The ship you found was no ordinary ship, but a warship from the second world war. Types of weapon like guns, naval mines, bullets and shells, I suppose these items were found in the ship. Wow, unbelievable! About the thing you split up with your teammates, just don't panic. There must be a solution! If you have an underwater walkie talkie, you can contact the instructor. If you don't then you can follow the signs in the ship to get out. Worrying makes everything worse.

1. I think the third wow is the biggest because you have a chance to swim into a war ship. Not everybody can do this. And, that ship is not a normal ship, it have been fighting but wrecked during the world's big war 2.

1. I think the second wow is the biggest wow.It is because when Mr Richard was diving in a completely pitch black ocean at night, he could see a lot of sea creatures.There were sea turtles, fish swimming here and there.He could see everything in the sea after he opened his underwater flashlight.It was super awesome and amazing.

I think the hugest
wow is the second one. It was because diving at night is horrible to me. When it is black in the sea, you can see is only murky water. If the lights are off,I will need to take a nerf gun to go to the toilet as I'm afrid of ghosts.By the way,the visibilty in night is unclear,how you see things and its interesting to see fish stops moving in the midnight.

Q1)I think the biggest wow for your life is the dive around the sunken war ship.It is so cool to see a warship in person and I would really like it too.I also think it is amazing because you mentioned that you’ve almost got stuck in the ship and couldn’t get out,it sure is exciting and thrilling
Q2)When I was small I was afraid of heights and scary rides like rollercoasters and bungee jumping.But one time I encountered a challenge which is my friends forcing me to go on that particularly high clown rollercoaster at ocean park. I was terrified but ambitious and so I gave it a try. It turns out I quite enjoyed the experienced although I barfed a lot after the ride.

I think the second WOW is the biggest. It is because diving at night is very difficult. You need to have a lot of experience to dive at the night. It is so amazing! I can’t imagine that how beautiful the underwater and there are a lot of cute and colorful fishes. The ocean will let people feel relax. I want to go to dive in the ocean too! I want to swim with manta. They are always smiling.

1. I think the biggest wow is the third one because it is a very unique experience to not only dive with creatures in the sea, but also see the sunken warships in World War 2.

2. My biggest wow is the time I was riding on the rollercoaster “Hyperspace Mountain” in Disneyland. My parents told me that it has steep slopes and sharp turns. Eventually, I beat my fear on riding rollercoasters and went on it, it was a unforgettable experience.

I think the second WOW is the biggest. In my opinion, diving in a pitch-black ocean is quite scary but also fascinating. Still, I have a few questions: How deep did you dive? Did you see the trench of the ocean or an underwater ocean? And did you encounter some really strange creatures, like goblin sharks, giants squids etc?
