Travelling around the Sydney district is a wonderful experience.

    The sightseeing options are{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(end), but most travelers begin on the harbor at the Sydney Opera House. Known as one of the wonders of the world, it is {#blank#}2{#/blank#}photographer's dream.

    There is a huge {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(choose) of accommodations available in the city and its surrounding area. Darling Harbor is famous for its restaurants and four-star hotels. Under the famous Sydney Harbor Bridge is the Rocks shopping district, which {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(call) “the heaven of shoppers”. You can spend at least a half day{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (wander) through the alleys and side streets to take{#blank#}6{#/blank#}everything the shops offer. On the other side of harbor {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(lie) another must-visit spot, the Taronge Park Zoo. With an exciting collection of native animals, including lions and giraffes,{#blank#}8{#/blank#}is rare to find a zoo with a view of Darling Harbor and the city skyline.

    The Royal Botanic Garden is within walking distance of the Opera House, and is an absolutely perfect place for a picnic lunch. After lunch, take a walk to Sydney Tower,{#blank#}9{#/blank#}you can get 360-degree{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(forget) views of the city.

    Long time ago, a boy {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(name) Bob met a new friend in QQ, she is Larry.   Larry works with Transport Drivers. Inc. One morning in 2009, Larry was traveling along 165 north after delivering to one of his customers when he saw a car{#blank#}2{#/blank#}its bright lights on. As he got even{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(close), he found another vehicle upside down on the road. One more look{#blank#}4{#/blank#}he noticed fire shooting out {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(repeat) from under the disabled vehicle. Larry pulled over, set the brake and got hold of the fire extinguisher (灭火器). Two good bursts from the extinguisher and the fire {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(put) out.

    The man who had his bright lights on came over and told Larry he had made a call. They then heard a woman's voice coming from the damaged vehicle.{#blank#}7{#/blank#} (approach) the vehicle, they saw that a woman was trying to get out of the broken window. They told her to stay still, but she thought the car was going to explode. Larry told her that he had already put out the fire.

    Once fire and {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(emergent) people arrived, Larry and the other man backed off and let them go to work. Then, Larry asked the police {#blank#}9{#/blank#}he was needed or free to go. They let him and the other man go.

    One thing is for certain—It {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(be) his efforts that most likely saved the woman's life.

    “Be careful, doctor. I can stand anything {#blank#}1{#/blank#} pain.” When returning from the hospital, I thought about what my previous patient said. Aren't we all like that? We'll do anything{#blank#}2{#/blank#} (avoid) pain.

    We look for weight loss programmes {#blank#}3{#/blank#}don't require us to count calories or give up our favorite foods, and exercise programmes that won't make us sweat toe much or feel {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (tire). We avoid the strict teachers and the tough classes in school {#blank#}5{#/blank#}we don't want to deal with the difficult tasks.

    When it comes right down to it, we don't like the hard work {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (require) to accomplish the goals we truly want in our lives. Why can't we {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(nature) take the path that we know is best for us? Our earthly nature is to avoid the pain of diet, exercise, difficult classes, and hard work.

    Only if we change our nature, can we choose the tough, troublesome, and trying pathway. Because it is in {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(face) the difficult choices that we will truly grow, and our being will be advanced once we decide to face the tough tasks.

    We {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(give) a choice when we comes across cur earthly nature. We can overcome the problems that challenge us or we can enjoy {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(we) by avoiding all difficulties in following our earthly nature. It's our choice. My hope is that we'll step forward in faith.

    "If you're talking to me in a noisy restaurant and my nerve system is good at locking onto the sound of your voice, I {#blank#}1{#/blank#} understand what you say better."

    The research at Northwestern University shows that {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (play) a musical instrument is good for your brain. And the brain remembers how to "lock onto" the important sounds, {#blank#}3{#/blank#}, our ears may not work as well as we age, and that helps us to hear better.

    A scientist, living in France twenty years ago, {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (write) about what he called the "Mozart Effect". He said that {#blank#}5{#/blank#} could be helpful to the brain when listening to the classical music of Mozart. Some researchers said that Mozart's music would make you much {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (smart), or even have some health disorders {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (cure). Others said that there was nothing special about Mozart's music. Any kind of high energy music would work. So if the cost of a musical instrument or music lessons is too costly, can we get {#blank#}8{#/blank#} same brain experience just by listening?

    Usually people have teachers, or they can teach themselves music. {#blank#}9{#/blank#}, the point is that they're actively playing a musical instrument and engaging in making music instead {#blank#}10{#/blank#} listening to music passively.
