One night four college kids{#blank#}1{#/blank#} (stay) out late, partying and having a good time. They paid no mind{#blank#}2{#/blank#} the test they had scheduled for the next day and didn't study.In the morning,they hatched a plan to get out of{#blank#}3{#/blank#} (take) their test.They covered{#blank#}4{#/blank#} (they) with grease（润滑油）and dirt and went to the Dean's office{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (nervous).Once there, they said they{#blank#}6{#/blank#} (be) to a wedding the previous night and on the way back they got{#blank#}7{#/blank#} flat tire and had to push the car back to campus.

    The Dean listened to their sad story and got lost in deep{#blank#}8{#/blank#} (think).Then he offered them a retest three days later.They thanked him and accepted his offer.

    {#blank#}9{#/blank#} the test day arrived, they went to the Dean.The Dean put them ail in separate{#blank#}10{#/blank#} (room) for the test.They were fine with this since they had all studied hard.Then they saw the test.It had 2 questions.

    Running a few kilometers each day is good for our health. However, new research says running too much could be bad for us. Running long distances {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(regular) for many years could make our life{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(short), not longer. The study is from the Minneapolis Heart Institute. A researcher said too much running can created plague(斑) inside your heart,{#blank#}3{#/blank#}can lead to heart disease. He wrote that running too much for many years takes away the good things from exercise. He{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(add) that the risk of heart disease could be{#blank#}5{#/blank#}same as someone who never exercised.

    Researchers looked{#blank#}6{#/blank#}the health and training of 3,300 runners over the age of 35. 70% of them ran over 30 kilometers a week. Men who ran marathons for 25 years had 62% more plaque in their heart than men who did little{#blank#}7{#/blank#}no exercise. Another doctor said he felt cheated. He started running marathons in 1967. He used{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(run) 60 kilometers every week. He said, “I thought I was out there exhausting{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(me), building an absolutely strong heart.” The doctor advised{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(exercise) frequently but not to overdo things.

—No. On the contrary, I think it is very necessary.

    A humanoid named Sophia has made history {#blank#}1{#/blank#}becoming the first robot in the world with citizenship. Journalist Andrew Ross Sorkin made the announcement at the end of an interview with Sophia.

    “We just learned, Sophia, I hope you're listening to me, that you have been now awarded {#blank#}2{#/blank#} is going to be the first Saudi citizenship for a Robot,” he said to applause from the audience.

    Sophia responded, without missing a beat: “I want to thank very much the kingdom of Saudi Arabia.”

    “I am very proud and honored {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(award) citizenship and I simply appreciate {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (recognize) with citizenship as a robot, which is historical .” the robot said.

The pair discussed the future of artificial intelligence, {#blank#}5{#/blank#}Sophia said it wants to use to “help humans live a better life.”

    Sorkin expressed concerns {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(previous) raised by Elon Musk that artificial intelligence could be dangerous if it {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (go) evil and turned on humanity. But Sophia insisted it wanted to use artificial intelligence only to "help humans live a better life."

    Sophia tried to remove Sorkins' fears of {#blank#}8{#/blank#}"bad future," insisting that AI is "designed around human values like {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(wise), kindness, compassion."

    It accused him of "reading too much Elon Musk," and said, "don't worry, if you're nice to me, I{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(be) nice to you. Treat me as a smart input-output system."

    Last Friday a storm swept through two villages in the New Territories,{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(destroy) fourteen homes. Seven others were so badly damaged{#blank#}2{#/blank#}their owners had to leave them, and fifteen others had broken windows or roofs. One person was killed, several were{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(serious) hurt and taken to hospital, and a number of other people received smaller hurt. Altogether over two hundred people were homeless after the storm.

    A farmer, Mr. Tan, said that the storm began early{#blank#}4{#/blank#}the morning and lasted for over an hour.

    "I{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(eat) with my wife and children," he said," when we heard a loud noise. A few minutes later our house fell down on top of us. We tried our best{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(climb) out but then I saw that one of my children was{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(miss).I went back inside and found him, safe{#blank#}8{#/blank#}very frightened."

Mrs. Woo Mei Fong said that her husband had just left for work when she{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(feel) that her house was moving. She ran outside at once with her children.

    Soldiers helped to take people out of the flooded area and the welfare department brought{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(they) food, clothes and shelter.

    One day Mary was busy working in her office in London {#blank#}1{#/blank#} she received an E-mail from her friend Joan .In Joan's e-mail, she persuaded Mary {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (look) for a flat in London for her. As she had {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (little) money at her command than before, the flat had to be cheap, but it had to be modern, with elevators, gas lines. It had to be in the {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (east) part of London, with petrol and subway stations nearby. Though Mary found {#blank#}5{#/blank#} difficult to find such a flat, she still went from one block to another, looking for a flat {#blank#}6{#/blank#} would meet Joan's requirements. Having tried too many times, Mary met her boss and politely asked him {#blank#}7{#/blank#} advice. It was the first time that she {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (talk) with his boss about her personal problems. It happened that the boss just had such a flat for rent, so they quickly reached {#blank#}9{#/blank#} agreement. But to her surprise, when she e-mailed Joan, telling her the good news, Joan said that she had changed {#blank#}10{#/blank#} mind—she was not returning to London.
