    In 1949 when the People's Republic of China was founded, number of people living in urban areas accounted for only about 10 percent of the total (populate).

    China is today home more than half of the skyscrapers in the world. Of these, 680 are more than 200 meters tall. In addition, 310 skyscrapers (add)in the country since 2015. In contrast, only 33 new skyscrapers were built in the United States during the same period.

    One of the best-known examples of skyscrapers in China is the Shanghai Tower, the nation's (tall) and world's second highest building.

举一反三
Directions: After reading the passages below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.

As entrepreneurs (创业者), we had a vision, we realized it, and now we {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (run) our own companies. But the dream can damage our "work-life balance".

When the success of the company rests on your shoulders, you've always got an excuse to put {#blank#}2{#/blank#} else on hold.

What I've learned when {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (face) the demands of a start-up company and a young family over the past couple of decades is that sometimes the best way to solve the work-life balance problem is to think small. Make a handful of lifestyle corrections {#blank#}4{#/blank#}, individually, may not sound all that exciting, but taken together, can prevent you from getting too tired.

Here's my list of life hacks that will help prevent exhaustion:

●Work from home one day a week

Few things give you a more grounded, in-control feeling than getting things done in your own space and at your own pace. Instead of leaving the office {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (clear) my head over a Starbucks coffee, I can fold the laundry, and cut back on evening housework.

Not to mention, working in pajamas is one of life's {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (underestimate) pleasures.

●Pencil in time for exercise

It really bothered me {#blank#}7{#/blank#} with the demands of company and family, my tennis game was going down the drain. That may sound unimportant, but it wasn't to me, {#blank#}8{#/blank#} it was a meaningful part of my life outside of work. To get some balance back in my life, I rearranged my schedule. Two mornings a week, I woke up an hour {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (early) to work out with a tennis coach. If sports aren't your thing, try yoga or that hobby that you always loved but let go of after starting your business.

●Learn something new, outside the office

It can be draining to always be the person who's supposed to have the answers as a business leader. It's surprisingly liberating to be on the other side, {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (absorb) knowledge without the pressure to perform or to always be right.
