Macao, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} lies to the south of Guangdong, is a small city with  Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Zhuhai and Hong Kong as its neighbors. It has {#blank#}2{#/blank#} population of 550,000, 96% of which {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (be) Chinese. It is a clean and {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (beauty) city with trees, flowers, and green grass everywhere. There are lots of cars {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (run) in the narrow streets. {#blank#}6{#/blank#} all people obey the traffic rules. Macao is also famous {#blank#}7{#/blank#} its gambling, and several million {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (visit) come to tour every year.

    Macao, which used to belong to China but {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (take) away by the Portuguese in 1887 from the Qing Dynasty, returned to our motherland {#blank#}10{#/blank#} December 20th, 1999.

    Chinese oracle bone inscriptions (甲骨文) over 3,000 years old are now being widely used as emojis by young WeChat users, thanks to a person who made them{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(close) to people's life than before.

     “The ancient characters are not as cool and distant {#blank#}2{#/blank#}they are supposed to be,” said the {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (create) Chen Nan. “In fact, they are cute and humorous, and they could totally serve our needs for online expression.”{#blank#}4{#/blank#}46-year-old professor of fine art at Tsinghua University has been working to make oracle bone inscriptions into emojis. For example, the character for “zui,”{#blank#}5{#/blank#} means “drunk” in English, was created {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(look) like a stumbling figure.

    Chen has also combined the ancient Chinese characters with cartoon figures. A cartoon video clip {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(feature) oracle bone inscriptions designed by him was viewed 31 million times and shared 140,000 times.

    Chen worked on the road of innovation 19 years ago. In 2016, the ancient typeface{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(include) into the font library under his efforts to let the ancient words walk into people's life. Now the library has as many as 3,500 characters,{#blank#}9{#/blank#}Chen's research on the project still continues, as he plans to extend the library to 7,000 characters. In the future, he will apply the ancient characters  {#blank#}10{#/blank#}education and development of games and apps.

    A few years ago, famous writer and editor Tom became very ill. His body ached and he felt constantly tired. It was difficult for him to even move around. His doctor told him that he would lose the {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(able) to move and eventually die from the disease. He {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(tell) he had only a 1 in 500 chance of survival.

    Despite the diagnosis(诊断), Tom was determined to overcome {#blank#}3{#/blank#} disease and survive. He was always getting help from medicine books and some doctors {#blank#}4{#/blank#} gave the ideas of curing his disease. The ideas made Tom {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(think) about the possible benefit of several positive {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(emotion).

    He decided {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(concentrate) on positive emotions as a way to treat some of the symptoms of his disease. "Laugh therapy" became part of his treatment. He arranged time each day {#blank#}8{#/blank#} watching comedy films, reading humorous books, and{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(do) other activities that would draw out positive emotions. Within eight days of starting his ''laugh therapy" program, his pain began to decrease and he was able to sleep more {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(easy). He was able to return to work in a few months' time and actually reached complete recovery after a few years.

    China has once again proved its {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (able) to change the world with the "new four great inventions": high-speed railways, electronic payments, shared bicycles and online shopping. They're related to China's high-tech innovation (创新),{#blank#}2{#/blank#} has improved the quality of people's lives, according to a survey {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(make) by the Belt and Road Research Institute of Beijing Foreign Studies University.

    "My wallet is no longer in use. I can buy and eat whatever I want simply with a fingertip on my phone," said {#blank#}4{#/blank#}university student, adding that "even pancake sellers are using mobile payment".

    The bikes {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(them) are not new, but the operating model of bike-sharing {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(base) on satellite navigation system, mobile payment, big data and other high technologies.

    China has entered a new innovative era, thanks to the large amounts of capital China has invested in {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(encourage) innovation, said Bernhard Schwartlander, WHO Representative in China.

    It is increasingly clear that China is innovating and no longer copying Western ideas. This is especially true in mobile, where China is leading {#blank#}8{#/blank#}many ways such as…social messaging app WeChat, she said. This is partly {#blank#}9{#/blank#}China skipped over the PC era and went directly to mobile. China has a {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(large) mobile use than any other country in the world.

    In China, the panda is a symbol of peace, harmony and friendship. That makes it the perfect choice to be a new representative to expand green energy in {#blank#}1{#/blank#} country. Over the next five years, Panda Green Energy {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (set) up {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (vary) power plants across the country. These plants look like lovable cartoon pandas in shape.

    The first panda plant was recently set up in Datong, China, and looks like a happy panda with eyes {#blank#}4{#/blank#} look in different directions. The black parts of the panda {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (make) with monocry stalline silicone solar cells (单晶体硅太阳能电池)with the gray and white parts composed {#blank#}6{#/blank#} thin film solar cells. Over 25 years, the plants will be able to offer 3.2 billion kilowatt hours of green power, reducing carbon emissions by 2.74 million tons.

    "By designing the solar power station into the pattern of a panda, we aim to stimulate teenagers' interest and {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(enthusiastic) for solar energy application," China Merchants New Energy Group CEO, Alan Li, said at the 2016 G20 Energy Ministerial Meeting."{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(deal) with climate change, we should not only appeal to the governments and{#blank#}9{#/blank#} (company), but also get the next generation involved in, thus{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(make) joint efforts for a green future.

    As the rain starts to pound on the windows, you may find your dog hiding under a low piece of furniture or in the corner of a dark room. It's not unusual for a dog to attempt {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (become) grounded during storms by seeking {#blank#}2{#/blank#} lowest place in the house or some place near the house's pipes.

    But why? As you might suspect, noise is one of the {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (reason). Thunder-storms can frighten dogs with noise phobia, {#blank#}4{#/blank#} is a severe fear of loud noises. Noise phobias can start at any age and worsen over time if {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (leave)untreated.

    Another reason is static electricity(静电). During a thunderstorm, static electricity in the clouds builds up, eventually {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (burst) into lightning. Dogs can sense this static electricity, and often even before the storm reaches our own neighbourhood. Static electricity {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (feel) by dogs through their fur. It could be {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (help)to gently lead your dog to the bathroom and into the bathtub as the porcelain(瓷器)may {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (actual) help block static electricity.

    At the same time, try not to take care {#blank#}10{#/blank#} your dog too much. Otherwise, your dog may think that its behavior is something you'd like to see again.
