    Family values are principles that help to define us as human beings. These values are learned, usually passed down{#blank#}1{#/blank#} one generation to another. However, they can also change over time{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(depend) upon the circumstances in which families find themselves. They shape the way we behave, they help families stick together, and they give us our identity.

    We always admire a person{#blank#}3{#/blank#} treats the elderly with respect, or helps people in need, or is always honest with others. Such{#blank#}4{#/blank#} (admire) behavior is usually a direct result of the values that person was taught by his family.

    These values or principles—respect, fairness and{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(honest) among many others—also help hold the family together in times of trouble. When problems arise, the family is able to withstand them because they share{#blank#}6{#/blank#} same idea about{#blank#}7{#/blank#} is important. When family members feel pressure from the outside world, they know they can come into their family for a comforting connection.

    Finally, family values make us who we are{#blank#}8{#/blank#}we talk about our personal character and what{#blank#}9{#/blank#} (influence) our decisions, we do so based on the values {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (give) to us by our family.

    On May 18, it was announced that China had achieved success in drilling fire ice, a frozen {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(mix) of water and natural gas, from the South China Sea. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(official) known as methane hydrates(甲烷水合物), fire ice produces a high amount of energy when {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(burn) and its chemical reaction produces nothing but dioxide and water.

    Fire ice, both clean and energy-intensive, {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(consider) the fuel of the future. Many countries, including the United States and Japan, have long been conducting research on fire ice, but extracting（提取）it from the bottom of the sea has been a common problem {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(trouble) all of them. But, the Chinese team succeeded in drilling fire ice for nearly eight successive days, {#blank#}6{#/blank#}is a big breakthrough.

    However, it is too early {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(say) a new energy source has been found. The world's total fire ice reserve is about 21,000 trillion cubic meters, which, if extracted, could meet the world's energy need

    {#blank#}8{#/blank#}1,000 years. But the successful test drilling of fire ice does not mean it can be extracted for {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(industry) use. China has to solve many problems before it can use fire ice as a source of energy.

    It's thought that only by 2025 at{#blank#}10{#/blank#} earliest might people be able to look at realistic commercial options.
