There has been a recent trend in the food service industry toward lower fat content and less salt. This trend, which was started by the medical community（医学界） {#blank#}1{#/blank#} a method of fighting heart disease, has had some unintended side {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (effect) such as overweight and heart disease-the very thing the medical community was trying to fight.

    Fat and salt are very important parts of a diet. They are required {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (process) the food that we eat, to recover from injury and for several other bodily functions. When fat and salt {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (remove) from food, the food tastes as if is missing something. As {#blank#}5{#/blank#} result, people will eat more food to try to make up for that something missing. Even {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(bad), the amount of fast food that people eat goes up. Fast food

    {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (be) full of fat and salt; by {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (eat) more fast food people will get more salt and fat than they need in their diet.

    Having enough fat and salt in your meals will reduce the urge to snack(吃点心) between meals and will improve the taste of your food. However, be {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (care) not to go to extremes. Like anything, it is possible to have too much of both, {#blank#}10{#/blank#} is not good for the health.

    Traditional Chinese medicine originated in ancient and developed for {#blank#}1{#/blank#}long time. It has collected various ways to treat{#blank#}2{#/blank#} (differ) diseases. It pays attention {#blank#}3{#/blank#}the balance of the body system. It reads, once the body system {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (balance) , the disease will disappear. The damage of the body system is the source of the disease.

    TCM is an important part of Chinese culture. It has made great{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (contribute) to the prosperity (繁荣) of China. Great success have been made in many areas through TCM cure. As to acute stomachache, there is no need {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (have) an operation; all you need to do is drink a cup of Chinese herbs,{#blank#}7{#/blank#} the western way takes more time and money. You may even take the risk of being infected after operation.

    {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (compare) with the western medicine high fees, TCM has a reasonable price that ordinary people can afford. I think in the future, TCM will be the mainstream in the health services in China. And our country should invest (投入) more money on the {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (develop) on TCM.

    {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(make) sure it is not going to fade away.

A Brief Introduction to Gandhi

Mohandas Gandhi (1869—-1948), an Indian national hero, was honored {#blank#}1{#/blank#}the father of the Indian nation. He has been respected and beloved by the Indians.

    He was born in India in 1869. Following the local custom, he got {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(marry) at the age of 13. In 1888 he sailed to England, {#blank#}3{#/blank#} he studied law for three years and became a lawyer. On his return to India, he was sent to South Africa to work on a law case.

    In South Africa he {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(surprise)to find that the problem of racial discrimination (种族歧视)was serious. There he formed an organization and started a magazine to fight {#blank#}5{#/blank#} equal rights.

    Gandhi returned to India in 1915,{#blank#}6{#/blank#} India was controlled by the British. He led the Indians to fight for an end to the British rule and {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(depend)for his country. In the political movement many Indians including Gandhi were put in prison. {#blank#}8{#/blank#}, the struggles never stopped. The British government had to give {#blank#}9{#/blank#}and India won its independence in 1947. {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(fortunate)Gandhi was shot by an Indian who opposed his views and died on January 30th, 1948.

    If you go out to the fields at night in spring or summer, you can hear frogs singing {#blank#}1{#/blank#}（joy） here and there. It seems as if they were performing a field symphony.

    The frog is a good and useful creature that benefits human beings. They can catch fast-moving insects. Each frog eats a large number of pests that are harmful{#blank#}2{#/blank#}crops. This little creature is regarded{#blank#}3{#/blank#}the natural enemy of pests".

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#}now frogs are getting fewer and fewer. This is because they are killed and put on the table as a delicious dish by their chief enemy, human beings. It is {#blank#}5{#/blank#}shameless and cruel act, isn't it?{#blank#}6{#/blank#}cause responsible for the rapid reduction of frogs is that farmers use insecticides （杀虫剂）to kill pests and frogs get killed as a result of drinking poisoned water{#blank#}7{#/blank#}eating poison-killed insects.

    Something must be done without delay{#blank#}8{#/blank#}（save）frogs. If we don't punish those{#blank#}9{#/blank#}sell and kill frogs to make money, then one day all of us {#blank#}10{#/blank#}（punish） by nature for failing to keep the balance of nature.

    Everyone likes to have friends {#blank#}1{#/blank#} are trustworthy. When what we say matches what we do, we earn trust and friendship. On {#blank#}2{#/blank#} contrary, once we break our word, nobody will ever trust us again. For example, if you are {#blank#}3{#/blank#} untrustworthy worker, you are less likely {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (get) a promotion. Therefore, the {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (important) of keeping one's word cannot be stressed too much.

    I once had the unpleasant experience of someone breaking his promise to me. Last month, everyone in my class had to gather at school {#blank#}6{#/blank#} 6:30 am for our {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(graduate) trip. My friend Ben asked me to meet him at McDonald's at six, but he never showed up. I was {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (depress) that when I called him, he told me he was already at school. I {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (rush) straight there, but all my classmates still blamed me for delaying the trip. After that, I ended my{#blank#}10{#/blank#} (friend) with Ben because I don't need friends who can't keep their word.

    One night, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} winter, a bear came into the city in Vancouver Canada. It walked through the city streets past houses, shops and offices. Then it {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (find) some food in bins outside a restaurant and started eating. In the morning, someone saw the bear and called the police. The police came with a vet (兽医) from the city zoo. They put the bear in a lorry and took it to the mountains outside the city. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (lucky), the bear was safe. But {#blank#}4{#/blank#} happens in other countries when big animals come into cities? In Vancouver it is unusual {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (see) a bear, but in some cities you can see big animals on the city streets every day.

    Big animals usually come into cities to find food. In Cape Town in South Africa baboons (狒狒) come into the city when they are {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (hunger). Human food is very bad for the baboons {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (tooth) because it has a lot of sugar. Now, there are Baboon Monitors working in Cape Town. {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (they) job is to find baboons in the city and return them to the countryside.

    In Berlin in Germany, pigs sometimes come into the city for food. They eat flowers and plants in parks and gardens. Sometimes they eat vegetables from gardens {#blank#}9{#/blank#} they walk in the street, causing accidents. Some people like the pigs and they give them food and water to drink. Other people do not like the pigs and they want the government and the police to stop them {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (enter) the city.
