Writing text messages while walking is dangerous. A study says it is more dangerous than texting while driving. Researchers found that there are more {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (injury) to texting pedestrians(行人) than there are to texting motorists. Their report says walking is not as easy {#blank#}2{#/blank#} we think. We must focus on many things at the same time to walk safely in a straight line. The researchers said that people forget how to walk {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (proper), so dangerous things happen to them. They bump(撞) into walls and other people. They walk into cars, fall over things in the street, {#blank#}4{#/blank#} even fall into holes.

    A professor said walking is a difficult action. There are several reasons {#blank#}5{#/blank#} texting makes walking dangerous. {#blank#}6{#/blank#} is that people cannot see the street. Another is that they focus on their phone keyboard instead of their feet. A final reason is that their minds are somewhere else—they are not thinking about {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (walk) from A to B safely. The professor said over 6,000 people {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (visit) his hospital last year because of texting. He said {#blank#}9{#/blank#} worst cases are head injuries. When a pedestrian is tossed into the air he/she has nothing {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (protect) the head. The damage can be serious.

    What is reading?

    Reading is actually a very complex process that requires a great deal of active{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(participate) on the part of the reader. It is an active thinking process involving the interaction between the reader and the print. That is to say, the reader's schema (former or previous knowledge) about the topic to{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(read) and his language knowledge (vocabulary and grammar) directly affect his understanding of the reading material and{#blank#}3{#/blank#}turn, the new information about the topic{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(contain) in the reading material will enlarge the reader's former schema.

    Reading is a very important{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(mean) of gaining knowledge about culture, custom, science education and technology from others or other countries. It is a good way of learning the most advanced hi-technology{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(serve) the needs of the social development and the interests of our people through reading. Reading is{#blank#}7{#/blank#}inseparable component of the English learning. We should lay solid foundations for our advanced education, and we can master the language by reading{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(large). However, it is a very complex activity{#blank#}9{#/blank#}involves almost all psychological processes{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(include) sensation, perception, motor behavior, motivation, attention, emotion, cognition and all kinds of memory.

    The Han people have its own spoken and written language-Chinese. Chinese belongs to the Han-Tibetan language family. It is the {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (common) used language in China and among the largest languages in the world.

    Written Chinese came out in {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (it) earliest form approximately 6,000 years ago. The Chinese characters {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (use) today, also called “Hanzi”, developed from those used in bones and tortoise shells more than 3,000 years ago. There are about 56,000 characters, of which only about 3,000 are in common use.

    Mandarin is a category (种类) of Chinese {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (dialect) spoken across most of northern and {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (southwest) China. The term “Mandarin” can also refer to Standard Mandarin, which {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (base) on the Mandarin dialect spoken in Beijing. It is officially considered to be the standard for the People's Republic of China.

    Why do most non-Chinese speakers choose to learn standard Mandarin Chinese? Mandarin is understood by most Chinese people. As mentioned above, it is China's national language. {#blank#}7{#/blank#} you are interested in basic communication, scholarly research, or {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (pursue) a career in China, standard Mandarin is {#blank#}9{#/blank#} necessary tool for communication. And it often serves {#blank#}10{#/blank#} a bridge for communication.

    Yu Rong, a Chinese artist, thinks of a new way to introduce {#blank#}1{#/blank#} ancient story of Hua Mulan in her picture book. In the book, I Am Hua Mulan, she tells the story by{#blank#}2{#/blank#}（combine） paper﹣cutting with international artistic styles. She places Shaanxi paper﹣cuts over western﹣style pencil sketches（素描）{#blank#}3{#/blank#}（create） a typical presentation of Chinese elements （元素）,which turns out to be a {#blank#}4{#/blank#}（success） and impressive breakthrough.

    Hua Mulan,{#blank#}5{#/blank#} story has been told by generations in China, is a fighter from the Northern Wei Dynasty（386﹣534）. As a devoted daughter, she dressed herself as a man to serve in the army{#blank#}6{#/blank#}place of her father. Mulan's characteristics, such as courage, kindness and a disinterested attitude toward fame and fortune, made{#blank#}7{#/blank#} （she） one of the most respected historical Chinese heroines. Mulan's story has been adapted{#blank#}8{#/blank#}（frequent） in modern media, including TV shows, video games and literature. For example, in 1998, Disney produced a film named Mulan, which {#blank#}9{#/blank#}（consider） a great success by critics and the public.

    To better tell the story, Yu Rong takes inspiration from her several {#blank#}10{#/blank#}（visit） to sites of ancient battles and Henan province's Yuju Opera. After years of preparation she finally makes this extraordinary work.

    Recently, an Internet slang word Foxi- or "Buddhist"- is becoming increasingly popular as it encourages people, especially {#blank#}1{#/blank#} young to remain calm and peaceful and avoid conflicts as much as possible- in other words, to live like a Buddha.

    The phrase {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (create) for the first time in 2014 in Japan to describe young men who no longer bother to start relationships with women or follow someone else's life path. They prefer to stay in their own peaceful world without {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (disturb) and care little about passion and success.

    In this fast-changing and {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (compete) world, many people are {#blank#}5{#/blank#} heavy pressure. It's only natural that people are seeking for a spiritual bay. However, some would compare "foxi" with "demotivational (无动力的) culture"- a phrase {#blank#}6{#/blank#}describes young people who feel aimless and powerless. They say that foxi actually reflects the reality {#blank#}7{#/blank#} young people are losing their will to fight. They are pretending {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (keep) a healthy and wise attitude towards failure simply because they are incapable(无能力的) of succeeding.

    All in all, there is one thing that "Buddhist Youngsters" should {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (basic) keep in mind: You may want to keep a calm mindset, {#blank#}10{#/blank#} you should never stop fighting for yourselves!
