    In my view, I am in favor{#blank#}6{#/blank#} the activity. Today the Internet is playing an important role in our life. {#blank#}7{#/blank#}, as high school students of the Information Age, we need to learn to make use of this meaningful tool to communicate and display {#blank#}8{#/blank#}（us）.What's more, opening and organizing micro blogs need various abilities such as writing, designing, being skillful at computer and so on.

    Steam trains were replaced by electric ones many years ago, so when the newspaper I worked for {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (hear) that the Admiral steam engine had been restored (恢复), they decided to send me on {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (it) first trip. I wanted to go even though I {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(general) disliked travelling by train. In fact, I was looking forward to {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (see) something I had never seen before.

    When I arrived at the station, lots of people had already been there for a while, enjoying the {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (celebrate) of the rebirth of the Admiral. At two o'clock, everyone was ready {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (board) the train. I settled myself into a compartment (列车车厢) where I was soon joined by an old man {#blank#}7{#/blank#} claimed to be one of the original workers on the Admiral. He told me how much he had hated being covered in coal dust all {#blank#}8{#/blank#} time. His family had been too poor to buy more things {#blank#}9{#/blank#} the basic necessities. It was a pleasure to listen to him. At every station, people were waiting to greet the train, and it was {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(excite) to see their faces as the past seemed to come alive again.

    Choice of seating in the lecture hall can affect a college student's performance, a study suggests.

    Lectures are a main part of higher education, and {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(understand) how students interact and learn within the lecture theatre environment is central to successful learning. Researchers from Sheffield Hallam University in the UK examined {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (student) reasons for choosing particular seats in a lecture hall, and investigated how seating positions are related {#blank#}3{#/blank#} students' performance.

    "Interaction is a key part of learning and knowing who the students are interacting with can be {#blank#}4{#/blank#} great benefit when designing activities," said David P Smith of Sheffield Hallam University.

    Many students {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (prefer) being able to sit with their friends, {#blank#}6{#/blank#} others were more concerned with either attracting or avoiding the lecturer's attention. Some students chose seats {#blank#}7{#/blank#} allowed them to see and hear clearly. But others {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (easy) picked seats that made them feel less depressed, they said.

    Friendship groups who sat together tended {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (achieve) similar grades, and students who sat alone at the edges were likely to do worse than average.

    Lecturers may be able to use these findings to offer assistance to {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (anxiety) students，and to support the learning of all students by encouraging interactions between the different groups.

    The Chinese Culture Center in Paris, {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(locate) in downtown areas opposite the celebrated historic sites of Grand Palais and Petit Palais across the Seine River, {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(sit) next to a large number of grand handsome and elegant classical architectures that have witnessed the evolution of Paris at {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (vary) historical stages. It conforms to(符合) the status of China, a great power with {#blank#}4{#/blank#} lasting civilization of several thousand years in the East, {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (set) the Chinese Cultural Center in this exact place.

    The amazing progress in {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (smooth) selecting the site for the Chinese Culture Center and putting it into {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (operate) in downtown Paris in such a short period was due to high priority of the Chinese government and constructive cooperation of the French party. Wu Jianmin, Chinese ambassador to France,  said {#blank#}8{#/blank#}excitement, "We have our own cultural center in Paris at last, {#blank#}9{#/blank#}we have eventually realized the long cherished wish of my predecessor(前任) in the Chinese embassy." Hou Xianghua, the first director of the Chinese Cultural Center in Paris, said the center will stick to its "non-governmental" nature and greet people from all {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (walk) of life, in addition to serving the mainstream society.
