Here's a message {#blank#}1{#/blank#} needs to be kept in mind by every mom and dad. You love your kids not because o {#blank#}2{#/blank#} they do, but because of who they are.

    In fact, raising a child is just like training a dog. You reward your children because of their {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (succeed) or progress they made.  {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (similar), a circus trainer gives a dog some food every time it  {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (jump) through a hoop(圈).

    The dog isn't loved for itself, {#blank#}6{#/blank#} for its actions.

    Dr. Laura Schlessinger, the popular talk show host, has a new book for children {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (title) “Why Do You Love Me?” Part of the story includes a mother {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (explain) to her son that it is not what he does that makes her love him—she loves him because he is unique and he is {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (she) son.

    Every mom, dad and grandparent needs to memorize the words of {#blank#}10{#/blank#} popular song: “I love you most of all because you're you.”

    A Shanghai policeman took on the role of son to help comfort an elderly couple, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} had lost their own son in a deadly accident.

    In 2003, Liang Qiaoying and her son {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(expose) to poison gas during an accident. The woman survived, but her young son was {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(lucky). And Liang was left mentally-disabled. Her husband, Xia Zhanhai, couldn't bear to tell her the {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(true) about their son. Instead, whenever his wife asked to see the son, he kept {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(say) that their son had gone to work in another city.

    In 2010, while watching a television show, Xia Zhanhai was amazed to see an officer that looked {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(exact) like his son. He immediately knew that the young man was the answer to making his wife smile again.

    With {#blank#}7{#/blank#} help of the television station and the police station, the couple were able to meet the very policeman on a TV show.

    The young policeman was touched by {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (they) loss and sadness, and said that he was more than willing {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(act) as the son. Although he still hesitated to call another woman "mum", his mother was happy to support his action.

Their "reunion" lasted just a few minutes on the show, but it had a lasting influence {#blank#}10{#/blank#}the sick "mother".

Going out to Sun Peaks for Fun

    We went looking for some family ski fun, not too far from greater Vancouver, and we found it and more at Sun Peaks Resort, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (locate) just 20 minutes outside of Kamloops. Pulling into the village, you feel like you've come along a mountainside wonderland {#blank#}2{#/blank#} two hills. Right away you feel at peace in the mountains.

    Sun Peaks has two mountains for skiing and boarding, with lots of lift and capacity {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (get) you around. Most accommodations throughout the village are ski-in/ski-out, so you can park your car once and walk or ski{#blank#}4{#/blank#} you need to go. Morrisey is on one side, and Todd Mountain on the other, connected by trails and a covered bridge, with skiable ground second in Canada only to Whistler. There is {#blank#}5{#/blank#} for everyone, from snow flying saucer and snowmobile, to mini golf and jungle live CS. During the two days of skiing on the holiday, we never met more than five minutes of lineup, and many times we {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (run) ourselves with fresh powder.

    Tubing is right there at the bottom of the main ski hill, perfect for parents who want to have some drinks at Bottoms Bar & Grill {#blank#}7{#/blank#} the kids keep the fun going into the evening. The village is small and quiet, so the kids {#blank#}8{#/blank#} have a lot of freedom to run around and play.

    Bring your skates! There is an NHL-sized outdoor rink (溜冰场), just a 10 minute walk from the main village. Skate rentals are available, and you can join a game of drop-in hockey, or enjoy a family skate during one of the open ice times {#blank#}9{#/blank#} go well into the evening, under the stars. Check with guest services to see if the rink is open, since it is weather dependent.

    In the summertime at Sun Peaks, the chairlifts switch up to accommodate mountain bikes and hikers. Downhill biking trails create adventure for those {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (look) for excitement, and the golf course at Sun Peaks provides hours of great scenic links.

    Moving silently through Alibaba Group Holding Ltd's "FlyZoo" hotel, black disc-shaped robots about a metre in height deliver food and drop off fresh towels.

    The robots are part of a set of high-tech tools that Alibaba {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (say) extremely cuts the hotel's cost of human labour and removes the need for guests to interact {#blank#}2{#/blank#} other people.

    Inside the hotel, softly-lit white panelled walls bring to mind {#blank#}3{#/blank#} insides of Hollywood spaceships. Guests check in at reception desks that scan {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (they) faces, as well as passports or other ID. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (visit) with a Chinese national ID can scan their faces using their smartphones to check in ahead of time.

    At the hotel's restaurant, taller capsule-shaped robots deliver food that guests {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (order) via the FlyZoo app while at a separate bar, a large robotic arm can mix more than 20 different types of cocktails. Facial recognition cameras add charges to the room rate {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (automatic).

    The hotel does employ humans, {#blank#}8{#/blank#} Alibaba refused to tell how many. This includes chefs and cleaners as well as reception staff, {#blank#}9{#/blank#} will assist with conventional check-in procedures for guests unwilling to have their faces {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (scan) and want to use electronic key cards.

    Do you have sleeping problems? If so, then these tips may help you fall asleep fast.

    Set aside the thought that you have to fall asleep. The more you think of it, the {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (hard) you will fall asleep.

    The foods you eat also play {#blank#}2{#/blank#} important part. Avoid eating or drinking things like chocolates, coffee, tea and energy drinks. If you have to, then have them in the morning and never in the afternoon, {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (especial) before going to bed. Don't eat too much at night. A full stomach will make it more difficult for you {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (fall) asleep because your body is working more time to digest the food you ate.

    Make a fixed time to go to bed. For example, by 9 o'clock in the evening you should already be {#blank#}5{#/blank#} bed. Do this even if you're not sleepy yet. Once {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (follow) this routine, you will gradually see that you will feel sleepy when it's 9 o'clock in the evening.

    Make your room {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (comfort) for sleeping. You should also take notes that the sleeping environment also {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (affect) your sleep. It must be in the room {#blank#}9{#/blank#} it's not noisy. Otherwise, you will find {#blank#}10{#/blank#} difficult to fall asleep again after waking up.
