Animal's language
We see animals, like rabbits, bees, dogs, birds,{#blank#}1{#/blank#} …, but do you know how these animals {#blank#}2{#/blank#} things? First, let's see a rabbit. When a rabbit sees something{#blank#}3{#/blank#} , it runs away at once. When it runs, its tail {#blank#}4{#/blank#} up and down. When others see this, they run away, too.
Many other animals use this kind of way. When a bee finds some food, it goes back to {#blank#}5{#/blank#} home. It can't tell the {#blank#}6{#/blank#} bees where the food is by speaking to them, but it does a little dance in the air. This may {#blank#}7{#/blank#} other bees where the food is.
Some animals say things by {#blank#}8{#/blank#} sounds like a man does. For example, a dog barks when a {#blank#}9{#/blank#} comes near.
Some birds can make several different sounds, each with its own {#blank#}10{#/blank#} . In a word, every animal has its own language.

Look ! This is a nice{#blank#}1{#/blank#} It's Sunday morning. There{#blank#}2{#/blank#} many boys and girls in the park. Some of them are singing {#blank#}3{#/blank#} the tree. Some are{#blank#}4{#/blank#}  in the river. Other {#blank#}5{#/blank#}  are playing games on the hill.
Maria is an American girl. She is{#blank#}6{#/blank#}  to her classmates. She is in the park, too. What is she doing? She is sitting and  {#blank#}7{#/blank#} a book. She{#blank#}8{#/blank#} reading very much. Tom is an English boy. He is five. He is too young. He can't {#blank#}9{#/blank#} to school. Now he  {#blank#}10{#/blank#}  a kite with his father in the park.

    A road is a bridge between two places. The Silk Road has been a bridge East and West for more than 2,000 years. The Silk Road has been {#blank#}1{#/blank#} included into the UNESCO World Heritage List（世界文化遗产名录）at the 38^th session of the World Heritage Committee in Doha.

    But did you know: the Silk Road is not a single route（路线）! It is a series of {#blank#}2{#/blank#} and cultural transmission（传递）routes. It began during the Western Han Dynasty. The trade route starts from the city of Xi'an in Shannxi Province and  {#blank#}3{#/blank#} in Eastern Europe, near today's Turkey and the Mediterranean Sea. The Silk Road was about 6,500 kilometers long. It went  {#blank#}4{#/blank#} one-fourth of the planet.

    The Silk Road got its name  {#blank#}5{#/blank#} Chinese silk used to be carried along this road. Apart from silk, jade, ceramics and iron went west to Rome. From the west came glass, gems and food {#blank#}6{#/blank#} carrots and sesame（芝麻）.

    The Silk Road was very  {#blank#}7{#/blank#} to both China and the rest of the world. Besides trade, knowledge about science, arts and literature, as well as crafts and technologies was  {#blank#}8{#/blank#} across the Silk Road. In this way, languages and cultures developed and {#blank#}9{#/blank#} each other.

    Today, {#blank#}10{#/blank#} along the Silk Road are great travel destinations（目的地）,such as the Terracotta Warriors in Xi'an and Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang Gansu.

    A doctor, a lawyer(律师), a little boy and an old man were on the plane. Then there was something wrong with the {#blank#}1{#/blank#}. They had to jump off.

    But there {#blank#}2{#/blank#} only three parachutes(降落伞) on the plane.

"I'm a doctor. I save other people's {#blank#}3{#/blank#}, so I must live," said the doctor and he jumped out.

    "I'm a lawyer and I'm important in the world." The lawyer also {#blank#}4{#/blank#} a parachute and jumped.

    The old man {#blank#}5{#/blank#} the little boy and said, "My dear, I'm old but you are {#blank#}6{#/blank#}. You have a long way in front of you. Take the last parachute and go."

    "Don't {#blank#}7{#/blank#}, grandpa. The important man just jumped off {#blank#}8{#/blank#} my backpack (背包)," said the boy.
