Over the past years Starbucks coffee{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(become) a coffee chain store. The cafes don't sell coffee; they sell{#blank#}2{#/blank#}very atmosphere. They offer customers the perfect atmosphere{#blank#}3{#/blank#} which to take time out and relax. Every single store throughout the world is furnished in a romantic style and {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(special) meant to be cozy, private and quiet: earth-toned (褐色调) space, fancy wall paper, lovely paintings,{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (amaze) background and irresistible coffee smell……The most fantastic decoration style about Starbucks {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(design) with oversized chairs and tables outside the store. When{#blank#}7{#/blank#}comes to a sunny afternoon, I love to take a seat outside,{#blank#}8{#/blank#} (bath) in the afternoon sunshine, and listening to the lovely music{#blank#}9{#/blank#}tasting the most terrific Cappuccino. This is exactly what I love in here —-the Starbucks ! This is the café I love not merely because of the café itself, but also because of the {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(feel) it brings me.

—Yeah，but I have to consult the telephone book {#blank#}1{#/blank#} his address.

    According to a recent study, plants are able to make intelligent decisions. They are a lot{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(smart) than we thought. Scientists have discovered that the pea plant can make decisions on how{#blank#}2{#/blank#} (survive) best, even though it does not have a brain. Researchers grew several pea plants that had their roots {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (separate) between two pots. Each pot contained different amount of nutrients. One pot always had the same amount{#blank#}4{#/blank#}the other pot varied between a lot and a little. The plants turned out to be{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (amaze) consistent（一致的）at turning their roots to the pot with the most nutrients.

    Researcher Alex Kacelnik says the experiment raises a question, not about plants{#blank#}6{#/blank#} about animals and humans. He wonders whether the pea plant is more efficient in using its limited resources about {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(make) decisions than humans. He says, “We have a very wonderful brain, but maybe most of the time we're not using {#blank#}8{#/blank#}” Professor Kacelnik does not think that pea plants are intelligent in the human sense, but that they exhibit complex{#blank#}9{#/blank#} (behave) to efficiently take advantage of natural opportunities. It will be interesting to see how our lives would be different if we{#blank#}10{#/blank#} (adopt) similar strategies.

    The Dragon Boat Festival is a {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(tradition) holiday that commemorates the life and death of the famous Chinese scholar Qu Yuan.

    It is a day when many people eat zongzi and race dragon boats. In ancient  China,  the festival {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (celebrate) as "Poets' Day" in honor of Qu Yuan,  {#blank#}3{#/blank#} was known as China's first poet.

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#} is commonly believed that the local people began {#blank#}5{#/blank#} tradition of throwing sacrificial cooked rice into the river for Qu Yuan, while others hoped that the rice would prevent Qu Yuan's body from being eaten by the fishes in the river. At first, the locals decided {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (make) zongzi in hopes that it would sink into the river and reach Qu Yuan's body. However, the tradition of wrapping the rice in bamboo {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (leaf) to make zongzi began the following year.

    A dragon boat, usually made of wood to various designs and sizes, is a human-powered boat. They often have brightly decorated designs that range anywhere from 40 feet in length {#blank#}8{#/blank#} 100 feet, with the front end shaped like open-mouthed dragons, and the back end with a scaly tail. The boat can have up to 80 rowers to power the boat, {#blank#}9{#/blank#}depend) on the length. A sacred ceremony is performed before any competition in order to "bring the boat to life" by painting the eyes. The first team {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (gain) a flag at the end of the course wins the race.
