Chaplin was an extraordinary performer who {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(star) in and directed many outstanding comedies. Few people were bored {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(watch) his moustache, his gestures or his entertaining reactions when chased by {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(detective). Being drunk, sliding on a banana skin or whispering his own failures to nobody, he made us feel more content {#blank#}4{#/blank#}our life without any verbal explanation. His particular sense of humor has astonished everybody throughout the world up to now.

    In a small budget film, he played a badly-off person {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(wear) worn-out shoes and {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(mess) clothes. On one occasion, he {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(trap) by a snowstorm in a vast mountainous area. He overcame many difficulties, {#blank#}8{#/blank#} he was not fortunate enough. With all the porridge {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(eat) up, he picked out a shoe and boiled it to eat. What he performed was a total failure. According to an actress, his acting was so {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(convince) and amusing that everybody couldn't help bursting into laughter.

    We think that life in Chinese high school is an adventure in which we have to survive mountains of homework and all kinds of exams. Yet would it be{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(surprise) if I tell you that high school life in the US is almost as stressful and demanding as it is in China?

    In US high school, everything{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(record) into your studying document, including your grades on quizzes, tests and final examinations. Failing{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(turn) in your homework on time will directly affect your grade for a certain course. Perhaps contrary to{#blank#}4{#/blank#}we used to think of the US high school students, they pay more attention to their{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(academy) performance to try to get into a distinguished university.{#blank#}6{#/blank#}, they'll be disappointed after graduation from high school.

    Like university students, US high school students have the{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(free) to choose the courses that most interest{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(they). Even a ninth grader can sit{#blank#}9{#/blank#}the same classroom as twelfth graders. But this also means he or she has to work very hard, because the teacher will not treat him or her differently just because he or she is a few years{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(young).

    Once a group of 50 people was attending a seminar. Halfway through his talk, the speaker stopped and decided {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (create) a group activity. He went around the hall and gave each person a balloon. Each one was asked to write his or her name on the balloon {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (use) a marker pen. Then all the balloons were {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (collect) and put in another room.

    The speaker then led the group to the room full of balloons and asked them to find the balloon {#blank#}4{#/blank#} had their name written on, within five minutes. Everyone was {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (hurried) searching for their name, bumping into each other, pushing each other around. It was chaos. At the end of the five minutes no one could find {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (them) own balloon.

    Now each person was asked to randomly collect {#blank#}7{#/blank#} balloon and give it to the person whose name was written on it. Within two minutes everyone {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (have) their own balloon. When everyone quieted down, the speaker began to talk, saying that this is exactly what was happening in our {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (life)．Everyone is hurriedly looking for happiness, and not knowing where it is.

    Our happiness sometimes lies in the happiness of other people. Give them happiness {#blank#}10{#/blank#} you will get your own happiness.

    If you have ever taken a handwritten prescription from a doctor or looked at the notes from your visit, it seems like no amount of squinting(眯眼) could help the letters get clearer. Bad handwriting almost seems like a{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(require) for graduating from medical school. But it's not the fact{#blank#}2{#/blank#}only people with bad handwriting{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(attract) to the medical field. If so, why does it happen to doctors?

“In the medical field, if it's not documented, it{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(actual) didn't happen," says Celine Thum, MD, medical director at ParaDoes Worldwide. Anything you talk about behind closed doors needs written evidence for your medical history. Doctors have to write more than any other employee, for {#blank#}5{#/blank#}they can hardly write letters clearly.

    Long days plus tons of writing leads{#blank#}6{#/blank#}a very tired hand. If doctors could spend an hour{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(deal) with every patient, they might be able to slow down and give their{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(hand)a rest. But the truth is that most physicians are rushing around to the next patient. With so many patients to see in a{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(limit) time, doctors are{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(concerned) about getting the information down than perfecting their handwriting.
