Bully for you

    The makers of a hotly debated computer game about bullying have decided to go ahead and put it into market despite calls for it {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(forbid). In the game, players take on the role of a new student at a school and have to fight the bullies , by striking them or hitting them{#blank#}2{#/blank#} a baseball bat.

    Critics have said that the game encourages {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(violent). The makers, however, disagree and say that, while the game might be a little violent at times, it is just an {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (amuse)  look at school life. Besides, they argue that the fighting in the game {#blank#}5{#/blank#}( direct) against the bullies to protect students who are being bullied. The makers also say that the players will learn to stand up to bullies,{#blank#}6{#/blank#} use their strength or power to hurt or frighten other people. “Nobody should bully others just because they want to feel stronger or{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(important),” said the makers.

    A British politician, a former minister, has called for it to be banned as it might have {#blank#}8{#/blank#}negative influence on the way young people think of violent behaviors.

    Anti-bullying {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (charity) that fight against school bullying have said that the game might make people respond violently to bullies, which might make things more complicated and result in injuries. In other words, people {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(possible) get hurt because of the game.

    It is a common thing to forget to return a book to the library after you've borrowed it. Maybe, you'll you'll realize it has been some{#blank#}1{#/blank#} (month) since you borrowed it and decide to return it.{#blank#}2{#/blank#} (similar), when Ron Webster borrowed a book from the library of the University Of Liverpool, he too forgot to return it. When he was 30, back in 1953, he was working {#blank#}3{#/blank#}a research assistant in the university. It was during this time {#blank#}4{#/blank#}he loaned a book titled “Structure and Function in Primitive Society.” Shortly after he borrowed this book, he {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(call) to London to continue his research. Just as you might have expected, Ron Webster completely forgot the whole thing.

    Ron had a {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(success) career and worked for Ford before retiring and leading a relaxed life. Recently when he took {#blank#}7{#/blank#}look at his collection of books, he discovered the old book. He contacted University officials to ask about the {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(possible) of returning the book.

    University Librarian was {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(amaze) to see Ron arrive at the University Of Liverpool,{#blank#}10{#/blank#} (try) to return a book that he borrowed 61 years ago.

    Just in case you were wondering, the total fine that Ron Webster had accumulated over the years amounted to ￡4,510.

    Last October, while tending her garden in Mora, Sweden, Lena Pahlsson pulled out a handful of small {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(carrot) and was about to throw them away. But something made her look closer, and she noticed a {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(shine) object. Yes, there beneath the leafy top of one tiny carrot was her long-lost wedding ring.

    Pahlsson screamed {#blank#}3{#/blank#} loudly that her daughter came running from the house. "She thought I had hurt {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(I)," says Pahlsson.

    Sixteen years {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (early), Pahlsson had removed the diamond ring {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (cook) a meal. When she wanted to put the ring back on later, it was gone. She suspected that one of her three daughters — then ten, eight, and six—had picked it up, but the girls said they hadn't. Pahlsson and her husband {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (search) the kitchen, checking every corner, but turned up nothing. "I gave up hope of finding my ring again," she says. She never replaced it.

    Pahlsson and her husband now think the ring probably got {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (sweep) into a pile of kitchen rubbish and was spread over the garden, {#blank#}9{#/blank#} it remained until the carrot's leafy top accidentally sprouted (生长) through it. For Pahlsson, its return was {#blank#}10{#/blank#} wonder.

    After Donald Trump became the 45th American president, a new video of his granddaughter Arabella {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (go) popular once again on the Internet. In this video, the little girl wore a qipao, a kind of {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (tradition) Chinese dress. She stood in front of a table to recite ancient Chinese poems. These poems are familiar {#blank#}3{#/blank#} most Chinese people and they are often recited by Chinese kids. Arabella made the video to remember Chinese Monkey Year, {#blank#}4{#/blank#} ended on January 27th, 2017.

    Arabella's family are {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (interest) in Chinese culture. They can even make Chinese dumplings and sing Chinese songs. Arabella began to study Chinese {#blank#}6{#/blank#} she was 18 months old. Now she can speak Chinese {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (fluent). Early in February, 2016, 4-year-old Arabella recited a Tang Dynasty poem in Chinese. {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (she) mother sent her video online and won lots of “likes” from all over the world.

    On Sonia Weibo, many users thought Arabella was a wonderful and surprising girl. “I'm glad {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (see) the little angel loves Chinese culture,” wrote a user called “orange”.

    “At least the video shows that Trump is serious about {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (educate) and never closes the door to foreign culture,” said another user named “stAU79”.

    On the first day of my first grade, I stood by the door with butterflies in my stomach. I {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (voice) my biggest concern to my mother. "How will I make friends?" She handed me advice. "Be yourself." For the past 20 years. I have lived by these words. Soon I will graduate and become part of the real world. Nervously {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (face) challenges. I know I will whisper to {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (I) the two simple words "Be yourself".
