     Always give {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(strange)the feeling that you are at home. Have the snow {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (clean) off your stairs or out ofyour driveway during the winter season. You might ask someone to park {#blank#}6{#/blank#} carsin your driveway.

Some TVs also come with a timer that youcould set to be turned on during certain times. Have motion (运动) sensitive lights outside your house that keep thieves away {#blank#}10{#/blank#} you are not at home.

    Travel can be stressful, so it is not unusual for airports to offer a room for relaxation. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} San Francisco Airport has taken {#blank#}2{#/blank#} idea one step further, offering a yoga room for passengers in need of a good stretch before their flights.

    With blue walls and rule of silence, the room in Terminal 2 {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (design) at the suggestions of a passenger during an open meeting. Airport yoga lovers are directed to the room {#blank#}4{#/blank#} the usual means — a picture, one {#blank#}5{#/blank#} features a figure {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(seat) in a full lotus position.

    Airport director, John L. Martin, called the room, which opened last week, “another leap forward in providing our travelers with the opportunity and space to relax and reduce pressure on {#blank#}7{#/blank#} own terms.”

    The architects set the lights low and warm, and constructed a floating wall {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (symbolize) “a light spirit and enlightened mind”

    Yoga teacher, Tamal Dodge said, “How amazing it will be to stretch out {#blank#}9{#/blank#} you get on a plane for a 12-hour flight!

    Good morning, boys and girls. I'm here today to share a good story with you. It is a true story about a poor boy, {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(name) William Smith, had only one dollar left. He was so hungry {#blank#}2{#/blank#} he decided to beg for a meal at the next house. A lovely young woman opened the door. She thought he looked hungry and {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (bring) him a large glass of milk. He drank it {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (slow), and then asked, "How much do I owe you?" "You don't owe me anything." She replied. "Mother has taught me never to accept pay for a {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (kind)." As William Smith left that house, he felt much {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (strong) physically and mentally.

    Years later, the young woman became seriously ill and {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (send) to a big hospital. Dr. William Smith, now famous, was called in for the consultation (咨询). He recognized her at once and was determined to try his best {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (save) her life.

    After a long struggle, the battle was won. But the woman had to pay a lot of money {#blank#}9{#/blank#} the treatment. Dr. Smith, then requested the business office to pass the final bill to him for approval. He looked at it and then wrote something on it. The bill was sent to her room. She opened it, and found a note on the side of {#blank#}10{#/blank#} bill in surprise, which read: "Paid in full with a glass of milk, (signed) Dr. William Smith."

    Looking out of the window of his Ford truck, Bob Fitzgerald sees large, undesirable plants growing in the fields.{#blank#}1{#/blank#} (visitor) to his neighborhood in Princess Anne, Maryland {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(main) see dying forests and empty farmland.

    Fitzgerald says the land{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(be) in his family for over 3 centuries. "I'd say in the next 20 years. You're going to lose{#blank#}4{#/blank#}very high percentage of that land."

    The land around the Chesapeake Bay has been sinking for hundreds of years. But climate change is making things{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(bad). As sea level rises, salt water is entering rivers and other waterways. As a result, the ground is becoming too salty for crops{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(grow) on.

    Maryland's Eastern Shore is home to some of the oldest farms in North America.

    Fitzgerald says he has seen big changes during his life.

    "You just can't believe{#blank#}7{#/blank#}it's been taking things over in the last 15 or 20 years. I can show you land around here that people raised tomatoes on when I was a little boy. And now it's gone."

    Around the world, scientists warn that coastal farms are under{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(threaten) from rising seas and salt water. A World Bank report estimates rice production in coastal areas of Bangladesh may fall{#blank#}9{#/blank#}15 percent by the year 2050. Another study found hundreds of millions of people will{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(force) to move inland because of rising waters.
