In the past, it took a long time for people to find someone. Nowadays, however, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} the help of online communities, people can get their search {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (do) within a short period of time. All they need to do{#blank#}3{#/blank#} (be) get online and upload a picture of the person they are looking for, or share some basic information about this person. Because of the “footprints” people{#blank#}4{#/blank#} (leave) online, other Internet users are usually able to find anyone {#blank#}5{#/blank#} they are interested in.

    One example of this is a man who beat a dog cruelly. His  {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (violent) was recorded and uploaded online. In a very short time, the man was reported to an animal rescue team. In the end, he was punished and made to apologize. {#blank#}7{#/blank#} example involves a college student who refused{#blank#}8{#/blank#} (clean) up after her dog on the subway. Netizens revealed her personal information in order to punish her.  {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (wide) blamed for her behavior, this girl left college eventually. Many people thus began to debate {#blank#}10{#/blank#} a “witch-hunt” like this went to far or not.

    There was once a small boy who would never get dressed when his parents told him to,{#blank#}1{#/blank#}would he wear what they wanted him to. He preferred unusual clothes, but above all, he liked taking his time. His parents were always in a rush, and wanted him to be much {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (quick), but the boy didn't like this, and he would slow down even more.

    One day, his parents got so angry when he refused to dress that they told him to go out without any clothes at all.{#blank#}3{#/blank#} (surprise), the boy followed his parents out of the door. He held a belief {#blank#}4{#/blank#}nobody could do anything to him.

    As the boy stood outside his house with nothing on,{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (wait) for his parents's car, along came the local pig farmer. The farmer,{#blank#}6{#/blank#}was almost deaf, had very poor eyesight. Not only that, but also he{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(forget) his glasses that day. When he saw the boy's pink skin, he thought it was one of his pigs. Shouting and pushing, the farmer forced {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(he) into a pig cage. The boy begged him to stop but the deaf farmer couldn't hear.

    When found by his parents, the terrified boy never again wanted to be mistaken{#blank#}9{#/blank#} anything other than a human being. Now he's the first {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (get) dressed, and always looks neat.

    After four years of living here, I have a better {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(understand) of northern China's food.  

    Northern China's hearty food is {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(general) more acceptable to Westerners. They can enjoy Beijing roast duck, beef and dairy from Inner Mongolia, and Korean dishes in the northeast. Northern China experiences cold and dry winters, and hot summers, {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(make) calories and salt replacement more important. As a result, northern dishes have strong flavors, compared with the south {#blank#}4{#/blank#} dishes are lighter in flavor.  

    Wheat is the main crop of northern China, and you will find a variety of wheat-flour {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(product). Rice is also eaten in the north, but it is certainly secondary to wheat. Dumplings are very popular in the north, {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(serve) with vinegar for dipping.  

    Northerners tend to eat more meat and dairy for the purpose {#blank#}7{#/blank#} fighting against the cold weather. Most meat dishes {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(base) on mutton, pork, beef,  chicken,  and fish.  

    {#blank#}9{#/blank#} are less fresh vegetables available because of the cold weather. Fruit is traditionally limited to a few hard seasonal varieties like apples, so it doesn't feature much in the cuisine, although the northwest is famous for {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(it) dried fruit and wine.  

    It was a city in Hubei Province. On International Children's Day, some orphans(孤儿) from the Wuhan Welfare Institute for Children {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(take) to the park. An elderly westerner was with them. The children love the man very much and call {#blank#}2{#/blank#} Grandpa without doubt. This man was Professor William Dorrity, from Florida, the USA. In 2003, {#blank#}3{#/blank#} Professor William Dorrity and his wife retired, they came to Wuhan and started to work as volunteers at the Welfare Institute.

    The Dorritys have been working hard {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(improve) the conditions at the Welfare Institute since they came. They often take children on day-trips, {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(bring) them all kinds of food for the kids to enjoy. They recently bought audiphones(助听器) for four orphans {#blank#}6{#/blank#} hearing problems. They also bought {#blank#}7{#/blank#} wheelchair(轮椅) for ten-year-old Tan Jun, {#blank#}8{#/blank#} suffers from a brain problem. The Dorritys said “we love China and we love children, {#blank#}9{#/blank#} we are happy to do this.{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(Hope), there will be more people to give their love to those children.”

    Recently researchers have found that singing in groups could have a positive impact on reducing anxiety and {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (depress). The research is from the University of East Anglia in the UK, in cooperation with a community singing group {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (call) Sing Your Heart Out. A research team conducted the study {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(examine) how singing with other people affects mental health. Researchers followed a group of people {#blank#}4{#/blank#} attended free {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(week) singing workshops for six months. They discovered that singing in groups was {#blank#}6{#/blank#} essential part in helping people recover from mental illness. In addition, it helped people feel {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(little) stressed, enhanced their mood and increased their confidence, social skills and feeling of well-being.

    Lead researcher, professor Tom Shakespeare, said: "We found that singing as part of a group contributes {#blank#}8{#/blank#} people's recovery from mental health problems." He added that: "All of the participants we spoke to reported positive {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (effect) as a direct result of taking part in the singing workshops. For some, it represented one component of a wider programme of support. For others, it {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(stand) out as key to their maintenance of health."
