It is natural that young people are often{#blank#}1{#/blank#} （comfort） when they are with their parents.

    They say that their parents don't understand them. They often think that their parents are out of touch with modern ways,{#blank#}2{#/blank#}  they are too serious and too strict with their children, and that they seldom give their children a free hand.

   Parents often find{#blank#}3{#/blank#} difficult to win their children's trust and they always forget how they themselves felt when young.

   Young people like to act without much thinking. It is one of their ways to show that they have grown up and they can face any difficult situation. Adults worry{#blank#}4{#/blank#} （much） easily. Most of them plan things ahead.

    Young people make their parents angry with their{#blank#}5{#/blank#} （choose） in clothes, in entertainment and in music. But they do not mean to cause any trouble: It just shows that they feel cut off{#blank#}6{#/blank#} the adult's world, andthey have not yet been accepted into their world. That's why young people want to make a new culture of{#blank#}7{#/blank#} own. And if their parents do not like their music or entertainment or clothes or their way of speech, this will make the young people very happy.

    Sometimes youare so proud of yourself that you do not want your parents to say “yes” to what you do. All you want is{#blank#}8{#/blank#} （leave） alone and do what you like. It is natural enough, after{#blank#}9{#/blank#} （be）a child for so many years, when you were completely under your parents' control.

    If you plan to control your life, you'd better win your parents. If your parents see that you have{#blank#}10{#/blank#} high sense of responsibility, they will give you the right to do what you want to do.

    It is hard work rather than luck that brings people success．Those {#blank#}1{#/blank#}are considered to be successful must have been working hard {#blank#}2{#/blank#} （achieve） their goal and their success can also benefit others．

    Some people argue that one can not succeed {#blank#}3{#/blank#} he works very hard．There are many examples to show that success {#blank#}4{#/blank#}（come）from hard work．One example is {#blank#}5{#/blank#} Madam Curie had been working all day and all night before she made the great discovery of radium．

    Other people think that luck and opportunity are {#blank#}6{#/blank#} （importance） than hard work．They argue that even if one works hard, he can not succeed {#blank#}7{#/blank#} luck and opportunity．For example, {#blank#}8{#/blank#} film star, Zhang Ziyi, could never be famous if she was not given a chance to play a role in the film．

    I think that {#blank#}9{#/blank#} hard work and good luck are important．If one wants to be successful, he has to work hard on one hand and he has to seize the opportunity and luck on the {#blank#}10{#/blank#}．These two factors are important for one's success．

    At the back of King's College there is a memorial stone in white marble to honor the Chinese poet Xu Zhimo. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (move) to the UK in 1921, Zhimo spent a year studying at King's where he {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (fall) in love not only with the romantic poetry of English poets like John Keats, but also with Cambridge {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (it).

    His poem, Second Farewell to Cambridge, {#blank#}4{#/blank#} is considered to be his most famous one, is now a compulsory text on Chinese literature, {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (learn) by millions of school children across our country every year. The poem {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (clear) paints a portrait of King's and the River Cam, and serves {#blank#}7{#/blank#} a reminder of Xu Zhimo's fondness for his time in Cambridge.

    While the poem had been set to music many times before, the English composer John Rutter, one of the mainstream classical {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (musician), was invited by King's College to make the first musical setting of the text. The new piece, written and recorded in {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (celebrate) of the near 100-year link between King's College {#blank#}10{#/blank#} Xu Zhimo, has been released on a new album on the King's College Record Label.

    Who built the first canal? Perhaps some people long ago, living in {#blank#}1{#/blank#} dry country, discovered that they could dig ditches (沟壑) {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (irrigate) their fields with the river water. And naturally in the days {#blank#}3{#/blank#} boats were the most important means of transport, canals were the easiest means of reaching a place. Furthermore, a ditch {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (join) two rivers proved efficient for boat travel.

    Today, most countries in the world have canals. Even in the 2lst century, goods can be moved more {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (convenient) by boat than by some other means of transport. Some canals, such as the Suez or the Panama, {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (save) ships weeks of time by making their voyage a thousand miles {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (short). Other canals permit boats to reach cities that {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (situate) inland. Still other canals drain lands where there is too much water. Help farmers irrigate fields without enough water, and provide water power for {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (factory) as well.

    Most of the canals have a long history. Canals existed in Egypt thousands of years ago. And the Grand Canal of China was begun about 2, 500 years ago and took centuries to finish. During the seventeenth century, France built many canals that are still {#blank#}10{#/blank#} use today.
