At the present time, more and more people love travelling. It's a very good w{#blank#}1{#/blank#} of getting to know new people and cultures and acquiring（获得）experiences. It helps travellers g{#blank#}2{#/blank#} a lot. Travel can make our minds become much w{#blank#}3{#/blank#}.

    But travel does more than all that. It can also make us more creative. In recent years, some professors have been doing r{#blank#}4{#/blank#} on what many people have already learned from travel experiences. They believe that spending time a{#blank#}5{#/blank#} has affected people's mind. For example, they found that the students who lived in foreign countries for a longer period were better at s{#blank#}6{#/blank#} problems creatively than those who did not. If you stay in the same place, you can't experience new sights, new smells, new sounds and new cultures. All these can w{#blank#}7{#/blank#} up your mind and make it more active . H{#blank#}8{#/blank#} , that doesn't mean the more places you've been, the more creative you'll become. Another group of professors have been doings{#blank#}9{#/blank#} research. They found the people who often travelled from one place to another didn't have enough time to immerse（使……沉浸）t{#blank#}10{#/blank#} in a new place and a new culture. They weren't as creative as the people who spent the time really getting to know a place. You have to interact with the places you go to and then you can benefit from it.

    My brother and I like sports very much. We like {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (run), playing basketball, swimming and so on. Of all the {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (sport), we like swimming {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (good). Swimming is really {#blank#}4{#/blank#} ． (interest). {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(连词) you swim in the pool, you look like a {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(love) fish. Very cool. You will be happy if you can {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (swim). If you often swim, you will be {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (health). {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (swim) can bring you a lot of fun. Come and swimming {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(介词) us in the following two clubs.

    When you talk with someone, you'll need to end your conversation at some point. And there{#blank#}1{#/blank#} many reasons why you need to do that. Either you or the other person may need to continue an activity, such {#blank#}2{#/blank#}  working or shopping. Or you may have run out of things to say. You just want to keep the conversation short.

    But{#blank#}3{#/blank#} do you end a conversation in a polite way？It may {#blank#}4{#/blank#}  on where and how the conversation started. It may also depend on your relationship with the{#blank#}5{#/blank#}person. If you already know that person, you can just say, "I need to run now." Or you can say, "I'll catch you later." You may also give a reason for ending the conversation. "I really need to go—my piano class starts in ten {#blank#}6{#/blank#}."

    Perhaps you just meet someone in a social situation(社交场合）, and you have a nice talk. But then you have to go. You can say, "It was nice meeting you. Maybe we can talk happily again sometime in the {#blank#}7{#/blank#}."

    Another way to end a conversation is to make it easy for the other person to {#blank#}8{#/blank#} . If you see the other person is already not patient, you can say, "Well, I'm sure you have a lot to do today."

You could use these {#blank#}9{#/blank#} to end a conversation, and you should notice that others may also use them. {#blank#}10{#/blank#} they do so, you should know that it's time for you to stop and get on with your day.
