    ①它是世界上最流行的歌曲。It has been sung hundreds of millions of times each year. It has been heard in outer space, at baseball stadiums, in movies and in domiciles(住处) from the White House to the remotest (最遥远的) backwoods shack (棚屋) in Mississippi. It has been wired to millions of music boxes, greeting cards, watches, toys, games and other products. And it is the only song in the English language to make people of all ages smile and sing along. ②The song, of course, is "Happy Birthday to You."

    This amazing song began its life in 1893. Written by two sisters from Kentucky, Mildred and Patty Hill, it was originally (起初) named "Good Morning to All", and intended as a classroom greeting from teachers to students.

    Good morning to you.

    Good morning to you.

    Good morning, dear children.

    Good morning to all.

    To this day, no one knows for sure who wrote the new words to Hill's melody (旋律)，or exactly when it happened. "Happy Birthday to You" first appeared in a songbook in 1924. The words were presented as the second stanza (节) to "Good Morning to You".

    There was once a stone(石头) in the center of the garden of a family. Whenever the family passed through the garden, they would always make a detour(绕路) round the stone.

    One day, the son said to his father, "I hate that stone. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}"The father said, "It was there when your grandfather was alive. It is so big .I'm afraid we can't move it. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}"

    Twenty years later, the son grew up and had his own son. One day, his son said to him, "There is a big stone in the garden. Shall we move it?" He said, "That stone is too heavy. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}"But the son made up his mind to move it.

    One morning, the son brought some tools(工具) to the garden. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} He thought it would take him the whole day to move the stone. To his surprise, he spent only ten minutes before the stone was moved. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}

Her mother, Doria, was a doctor, and her father, Tom, was a television lighting director. For 10 years after school each day, young. Meghan spent time at the studio where her father worked.

    Her acting career (生涯) began in 2002 when she made her first appearance on TV. Other small parts on TV and in a few films followed. Nine years later, Markle got her big break. She won a lead role in the popular TV series Suits.
