I am not sure how many years ago it was, but I still had a cassette player (盒式磁带放录机) at the time. I had a lot of housework. I was tired of television and was in the mood for music. I pulled out one of my favorite cassettes. It started to play but before long the music stopped. I opened the player and saw the tape in the cassette was all pulled out and twisted (扭曲的). I tried to fix it, but it was already broken beyond repair. I frowned. I didn't want to risk another of my cassettes with a tape-eating machine, but I really wanted some music.
Then I noticed my ancient record player in the corner. I walked over and dusted it off. I pulled out an old record of my mom's that my dad had given me after she died. I turned on the record player and gently put the record on the turntable (唱机上的转盘). "Pop!" "Crack!" went the record for a second as I put the needle(唱针) down. Then a beautiful melody from my childhood started to play. I smiled and started to do my housework. The sweet songs I grew up on touched my soul. I felt the music coming out of me. I started to sing, letting my weak voice join in joyously with the music. I even dared to dance a little while I did the dishes. I smiled and laughed. My heart was filled with happiness. And at that moment I could feel the joy of the universe all around me. "This is how life is supposed to be!"
These days all my music is on CDs. My daughter says I am behind the times. She says I should buy a cellphone and download all the music I want. But instead, I think I will dust off those old records again, put them on that record player and start to sing along.
We all have music within us just waiting to get out. Don't let your music die within you then. Share your song with the world. And don't forget to dance a little too.
Disagreements have arisen in Northern France after many ancient standing stones were damaged to make way for a new hardware chain(五金连锁店).
About 39 stones, dating back at least 7,000 years, were removed from the site, which sits on one of Europe's most famous prehistoric attractions, Agence France-Presse (AFP) reported. "The site has been damaged," local archaeologist Christian Obeltz told AFP.
Carnac, often described as "French Stonehenge", is famous for its spreading fields of large tall stones. The stones are arranged in long, straight lines and, according to the Carnac Tourist Office, it is the largest collection of this type of standing stone in the world. The two main sites alone, at Menec and Kermarjo, house nearly 3,000 standing monuments covering over 4 miles.
The purpose of this ancient curiosity is still unknown. Many believe it may have had something to do with religion, while others think it could have served as a farming calendar. One idea even suggests that the stones are connected to a sad event that happened to a Roman army.
The Regional Office of Cultural Affairs for Brittany, which is responsible for protecting the cultural monument, made a statement on disagreements over building the store on Wednesday. "Given the uncertain and non-major character of the remains, damage to a site of historical value has not been established," the statement said. However, Obeltz mentioned that there hasn't been enough research in the area to decide whether the stones were historically important.
News of building the store has caused a storm of angry comments on social media, with many expressing their thoughts on the loss of the ancient stones. "Poor Carnac! The commodification(商品化) of the world prepares the man without memories," said Philippe de Villiers, France's former Secretary of State for Culture.
"In Carnac,39 standing stone monuments survived Julius Caesar, World War I and World War II. But not Mr. DIY!" the Twitter account Dom Revolution wrote.
The movie Home Coming《万里归途》took the lead in the box office (票房) during the National Day holiday in 2022.
It tells a story that happened in North Africa. After a war breaks out there, two Chinese diplomats (外交官) are ordered to help evacuate the overseas Chinese. After completing the first task successfully, they learn that another group of Chinese citizens (公民) are still in great danger. Realizing that these people will die if they don't give a hand, the two men travel through the war area. They risk their lives to help over 100Chinese citizens go to a safe place. The movie not only shows how the two diplomats protect the people with courage, but also shows their deep love for the country and people.
Home Coming reminds many people of a similar real event which truly happened in Libya in
2011. Chinese Embassy (大使馆) helped the evacuation of more than 30, 000 Chinese citizens. Behind this event were many efforts of Chinese diplomats. After watching the film, a man recalled his personal experience. "We are the lucky ones because we have a strong country and are well protected," he said.
Home Coming is a success partly because of the growing national pride and confidence Chinese people have in our country. A comment (评论) reads, "Chinese passport might not get you anywhere you want, but it can always bring you back home."

She thought he looked hungry so she brought him a large glass of warm 2 . He drank it slowly, and then asked, "How much do I 3 you?"
"You don't pay me for anything," she replied. "Mother has taught me never to accept 4 for a kindness." As he left that house, he felt 5 and stronger physically.
Many years later, 6 , the young girl was badly ill. She was sent to a big city for 7 . Dr. Howard Kelly, a famous doctor, was 8 for the consultation (会诊). When he heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light filled his eyes. Immediately, he went into her room and 9 her at once. He 10 to do his best to save her life. From that day on, he gave special 11 to her case.

She was 14 to open it because she was sure that it would take the rest of her life to pay it off. Finally she looked, and the 15 on it caught her attention.

China is a country with long history of tea culture, which is almost as long as the history of China itself.
(original) , tea was valued for its medicinal qualities. It has long been known that tea aids in digestion, which is the reason many Chinese prefer to consume it during or after (they) meal.
Among all the types of tea, Zongzi tea, referring to black tea (wrap) with bamboo or reed (芦苇) leaves, from Qimen county of Huangshan city in Anhui province, is becoming increasingly popular among (consumer) in China as the new wrapping technique gives the product fresh appeal.

I was never a fast runner and thus I always didn't like running. Throughout my childhood, whenever we competed in the 50-meter run, the 400-meter, or any other type of race, I would finish in the bottom half. In my late teens, as a member of a baseball team, I was the slowest runner on the team. In the preseason training, I was always the one running by myself at the end.
Therefore, twenty years later, when I entered my first official running race — a 3,000-meter challenge in my city — at age 38, I certainly didn't expect to win or come close to winning.
I was there because my college friend Jim Hosek was the director of the race, and he asked me to run. The race was aimed at raising money for the unfortunate patients in a hospital and encouraging the patients and their families to be brave, determined, and confident with sportsmanship.
It was a heartwarming program.I wanted to support it, so I showed up, paid the entrance fee, had a number pinned (把……别住) on my back, and moved over to the starting line. There, I waited with about 300 other runners for the race to begin. I was nervous. Would I be the last one to finish a race again? Could I even finish the race? I wondered.
Before long, someone spoke into a microphone, "Anyone weighing over 200 pounds comes down to the scale (秤), please." Knowing I was over 200 pounds, I walked down to the scale. A man told me to stand on it. "Two hundred and three pounds," he said. Then he wrote down the race number that was on my back. Out of curiosity, I asked him why he did so,and then I was told there would be an award ceremony (仪式) after the race. One award was for the first finisher in the over 200-pound group, and this special award would be announced at the end of the ceremony.
Not expecting the award, I ran towards the starting line, never realizing there were only two runners weighing over 200 pounds.
Paragraph 1:
Soon after, the race started.
Paragraph 2:
Then came the last award, and to my surprise, my name was announced.
