Recently a really strange thing happened in a middle school in China's Hubei Province. Over 600 students at the school took part in a "caring for an egg like a baby"{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(active). in which they were asked to keep an egg close at hand for a month{#blank#}2{#/blank#}breaking it.

    "It's hard for parents to bring up their children{#blank#}3{#/blank#}many students just ignore it, " said Liu Kang, the school's director. "They should{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(teach) to be grateful to their parents,who have given them life but ask for nothing in return ."

    Li Ming is one of the students. His egg didn't break during the month, but he felt{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(exhaust). "I now understand what great difficulty my parents have had{#blank#}6{#/blank#}（bring）me up. I'll do all I can to make their life easier and{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(comfort) when I grow up,”promised the 13-year-old boy.

    {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(luck), about 450 students broke their eggs. Yan Yueming broke his egg after just five days, which made him frustrated. He said,”I can't imagine {#blank#}9{#/blank#}sad my parents would be if there was something wrong with me, their ‘egg'! It is now time I did something{#blank#}10{#/blank#}return for their love,”said Yan.

    Longjing tea, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} has topped the list of the ten most famous teas in China with Nits color, taste and shape, {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (name) after its production region-Longjing Village of West Lake. The good environment and water resources have contributed much to the {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(grow) of the tea, confirming the saying that "Longjing tea is the {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (good) among all of the teas in the world".

    Thanks {#blank#}5{#/blank#} Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty, the tea has earned a high reputation. The story went that Emperor Qianlong visited the mountain during his Hangzhou travels, and he saw some ladies picking the tea at {#blank#}6{#/blank#} foot of the mountain. He was so interested in their movements that he decided to have a go himself While {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(pick) the tea, he received the news of his mother's illness, so he carelessly put the leaves in his right sleeve and{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(leave) Hangzhou for Beijing. He visited his mother {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (immediate) upon his arrival in Beijing, and his mother smelt the fragrance of the tea leaves from his sleeves and wanted to have a taste. After drinking a cup of tea, she found herself completely {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (refresh), and she even praised it as a cure for all ills. From then on, it was listed as the tribute tea.

    Chinese researchers have planned to build an airport in Antarctica in November. The Chinese {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (be) not very used to flying to the southernmost continent, because the country s first polar plane, the Snow Eagle 601, {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (put) into use only three years ago.

    Before the Snow Eagle 601, Chinese researchers traveled to the ice-covered land by ship, which took significantly {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (long) than flying. There are currently more than 20 airports in Antarctica, but none of them belong to China. The Snow Eagle 601 has to rely on Russian airports {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (take) off and land. That's {#blank#}5{#/blank#} the Chinese researchers decided to build their own. Building an airport in Antarctica is very different from building one elsewhere. The continent is covered by a {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (constant) moving layer of ice, so the builders must find somewhere that moves at the slowest possible pace and in a {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (fix) direction.

    The builders managed to find a spot back in early 2017 following {#blank#}8{#/blank#} tough measuring process that took place in the storm-like polar winds. The next problem is the snow. The soft nature of snow makes {#blank#}9{#/blank#} a bad material for a runway. So the builders must use road roller-like {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (machine) to press the snow, which can be very time-consuming in extreme coldness.

    {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(see) from outer space, Earth is a blue planet, due to the fact that the ocean covers over 70 percent of its surface. According to a new study published in the journal Science, the ocean plays a great role in {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(slow)down global warming. It is" {#blank#}3{#/blank#}important buffer(缓冲物)", {#blank#}4{#/blank#}The New York Times put it.

    The oceans can absorb 93 percent of the heat trapped by the greenhouse gases {#blank#}5{#/blank#}humans release into the atmosphere. And the other 7 percent {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(absorb)by the air, land and ice caps, according to the Guardian.

    "If the ocean wasn't absorbing as much heat, the surface of the land would heat up much {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (fast) than it is right now," said professor Malin L. Pinsky at Rutgers University in the US. "In fact, the ocean is saving us from rapid warming right now."

    However, the ocean itself, as Discover Magazine noted, is heating up 40 percent faster on average than the United Nations {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(believe) five years ago. That means if the ocean temperatures increase {#blank#}9{#/blank#} this speed, the high water temperatures "will kill off marine ecosystems, raise sea {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (level) and make hurricanes more destructive (破坏性的)", the Guardian reported.
