We travelled to Zimbabwe not long ago.  Before we started, we'd been warned not just by one person,{#blank#}1{#/blank#}by many people.

    The day we crossed the famous bridge over Victoria Falls to Zimbabwe we {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (greet) by friendly border agents and the border police waved us on our way with a smile. We started to give a second thought to {#blank#}3{#/blank#} warning we'd been given.

    The first day we took the backroads(乡村小道)to Binga, a place that was {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (former)a popular destination for those looking to rent houseboats and go fishing on the lake. The next day we drove on single track roads through remote villages. Villagers would stop and stare as we drove by, as {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (see) tourists in this area was {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (rare) than a blue moon. The road conditions continued to worsen, but the {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(beautiful) of the region grew too. We climbed up and down the mountains and valleys {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(fill) with native birds and wildlife.

    We pulled into Kariba where the lake ends and the Zambezi River continues.{#blank#}9{#/blank#} it is just a small town in Zimbabwe, it brings people a lot. We felt that Zimbabwe had treated {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(we) nicely-it would be hard to leave.

    The ancient Chinese divided the sun's annual circular movement into 24 parts. Each part was called{#blank#}1{#/blank#} specific “Solar Term（节气）”. The criteria for the formation of Twenty -four Solar Terms were developed through the observation of changes of seasons, astronomy and other natural {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (phenomenon) in this region and have been progressively applied nationwide

    It {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (start) from the Beginning of Spring and ends with the Greater Cold,{#blank#}4{#/blank#} (move) in cycles. The theory spreads from generation to generation and is {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(traditional) used to direct production and daily routines. It, in particular, remains{#blank#}6{#/blank#} (importance) to farmers for guiding their practices{#blank#}7{#/blank#} is used widely by communities and shared by many racial groups in China. Some festivals in China are closely associated{#blank#}8{#/blank#}the solar term. It may also be referenced in children's songs, folk songs and old sayings, These various functions of the solar term have strengthened{#blank#}9{#/blank#} (it) position as a form of intangible cultural heritage(非物质文化遗产) and have made a great {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (contribute) to the community's cultural identity.

    Next time you sit down to watch a sad film, put the snacks away. Research shows that we eat up to 55 percent more when {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(watch) a sad movies than a happy one. It is thought that we eat {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(make ) us feel better.

    With popcorn (爆米花) and ice cream chosen as {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(they) favorite foods by filmgoers , the situation suggests bad news for people. Researchers  {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(offer) a group of office worker types of snacks while they watched the sad Love Story and Sweet Home Alabama, a {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(cheer), funny film. Researchers said, “After the movies were over and tears were wiped away, those {#blank#}6{#/blank#}had watched Love Story had eaten 36 percent more snacks.”

    Medical researchers recommend that those not hoping to gain {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(weigh) put snacks out of reach. “Keep snacks out of arm's reach. You'd better leave them in the kitchen {#blank#}8{#/blank#}only bring to the sofa what you expect to eat. Maybe you can change popcorn and sweets to pieces {#blank#}9{#/blank#}fruit and vegetables. It's {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (real) easier to become slim by design than by determination.”

David will never forget what happened to him the day before yesterday. He was eating something at home{#blank#}1{#/blank#} he received a strange phone call from a hospital. The caller said that his son{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(fall) to the ground unconscious on the way to school. It was he {#blank#}3{#/blank#}took him to the hospital. David hung up his cell phone and rushed to his son's classroom, only to find him listening to the teacher attentively. He suddenly realized that he had been cheated, but he felt {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(relieve). Just at that time the phone rang again, saying, "Your son is in great danger and he needs {#blank#}5{#/blank#}immediate operation which costs 48,000 yuan. The doctors here say they will not operate {#blank#}6{#/blank#}your son until they receive the money." When{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(ask) from where the caller had taken his son to hospital, the caller rang off. David gave a big smile and said. "What a pity!"

If the cheater thought he could get money from David in such a（an）{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(honest)way, he was wrong. Such phone calls are common these days. A few of them might have fallen victims to such tricks. Most parents are sensitive to {#blank#}9{#/blank#}. It was really silly to cheat well—educated men like David.

    Believe it or not, it's a true story. The{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(colleague)in his office can confirm it, such as Tom, Peter and so on.
