It is a city with a history of more than 1300 years. It is famous for the Potola Palace.

    My husband and I were paying a visit {#blank#}1{#/blank#} my parents in Tucson. We went to a fast-food restaurant for dinner together. My husband went to the counter {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (order) dishes and I stood with my parents.

    My dad is 90 years old. He can hardly see very well and walks with a stick. I was scanning the restaurant, {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (wait) to sit at the first table that was {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (convenient) than others. A woman who was sitting with her son made eye contact with me and asked me to come to her. With a {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(puzzle) look on my face, I pointed to myself and said , “Me ?” She {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (nod) and said, “Yes, you.” I walked to the table and she said, “Bring your family here. I can finish eating at the counter. My son is in {#blank#}7{#/blank#} hurry to leave anyway.” My eyes {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (fill) with tears as she wiped down the table and guided my dad to the seat.

    I always believe that there are {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (nature) kind people in this world. This woman has set a good example to her son, {#blank#}10{#/blank#} is a really lucky guy.

    On Monday, World Health Organization (WHO) stated a plan to rid the world's food supply of trans fats（反式脂肪）. These unhealthy things have been related to many illnesses. WHO is a United Nations organization {#blank#}1{#/blank#} works to improve good health around the world. Its plan is called REPLACE. The step-by-step guide is designed {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (help) world governments remove trans fats {#blank#}3{#/blank#} their foods within the next five years.

    Trans fats {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (use) in baked goods and fried foods. Food companies use trans fats to keep foods for longer periods of time. But the things can be deadly. WHO says that{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(eat) foods with trans fats results in more than 500,000 deaths from heart disease every year. Trans fats are a harmful substances and can be removed {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (easy) without major cost and without any effect on the quality of the foods.

    Denmark {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (be) the first country to ban trans fats 15 years ago. The United States and 40 other {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (country) soon followed. “Why should our children have such {#blank#}9{#/blank#} unsafe substance in their foods?” Dr. Tedros Ghebreyesus asked in an interview. He is WHO's director-general. He said that the plan could “make food systems much {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (healthy) for future generations.”

    Perigueux is the capital town of the Dordogne region (地区) in France. Up to now, I {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (live) in Perigueux for nearly six months. So I think I'd let you know some of {#blank#}2{#/blank#} best things to do here.

    The cathedral (教堂) is a very {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (impress) landmark in Perigueux. It is a big building with five large domes (穹顶) {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (form) its roof. Another must-see is the Vesunna Museum, which explains the origin (起源) of the town from Gallo-Roman times and has many amazing old {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (object) on show. You can also find the remains of a Roman amphitheater (竞技场) in a park, and old towers {#blank#}6{#/blank#} formed the town's old defenses. You will probably find a(n) {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (hide) café or restaurant where you can enjoy a speciality food or, if you are really hungry, a three-course lunch.

    In summer, the Dordogne region is a hot spot for tourists {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (visit). Brantome is a town known as the “Venice of the region” because of {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (it) many beautiful bridges crossing the river. In the town of Sarlat, you can buy local products. The town of Montignac is famous {#blank#}10{#/blank#} the nearby Lascaux caves, which contain cave paintings created by people who lived over 17,000 years ago!

    The British have been drinking tea for over 350 years. But in fact, the history of tea goes much {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(far) back.

    The story of tea begins in China. According to the legend, the Chinese emperor Shen Nung was sitting {#blank#}2{#/blank#}a tree while his servant boiled drinking water, when some leaves from the tree blew into the water. Shen Nung,{#blank#}3{#/blank#} expert in herbal medicine, decided to try the water his servant created. As a result, it tasted so good that later the drink was{#blank#}4{#/blank#} we now call tea.

    It is{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(possible) to know whether there is any truth in this story. {#blank#}6{#/blank#}, tea drinking certainly was established in China many centuries before it had even been heard of in the west. Containers of tea {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(find) in tombs dating from the Han dynasty (206BC-220AD) before tea was firmly established as the national drink of China in the Tang dynasty (618-906AD). It became {#blank#}8{#/blank#} a favorite thing that during the late eighth century, a writer {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(call) Lu Yu wrote the first book entirely about tea, the Ch'a Ching, or Tea Classic. It was shortly after this that tea was first introduced to Japan, by Japanese Buddhist monks who had travelled to China to study before. Tea drinking has become a vital part of Japanese culture,{#blank#}10{#/blank#}may be rooted in the sprit described in the Ch'a Ching.
