    A long time ago, there was a huge apple tree. A little boy loved to play around{#blank#}1{#/blank#}every day. He loved the tree and the tree loved to play{#blank#}2{#/blank#}him.

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#} time went by, the little boy had grown up and he no longer came to visit the tree every day. One day, the boy came back and picked all the apples on the tree and left {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(happy). The boy no longer came back {#blank#}5{#/blank#}he picked the apples. The tree was sad.

    One day, the boy{#blank#}6{#/blank#} (return) and the tree was so excited. “Come and play with me,” the tree said. But the boy cut all the branches off the tree{#blank#}7{#/blank#} (build) his house. The tree was glad to see him happy but the boy never came back again. The tree was again full of {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (sad).

    One hot summer day, the boy came and the tree was delighted. “Come and play with me!” the tree said. This time the boy cut the tree trunk to make a boat. He went {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (sail) and never showed up again. The tree was heartbroken,{#blank#}10{#/blank#} the boy never knew.

    It was a short flight from Shanghai to Xi' an. Xi' an is one of the four great ancient capitals of China{#blank#}1{#/blank#}over 3,100 years of history. Its ancient walls date from the Ming Dynasty and are the best {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (preserve) in the world. There are bicycles for people to hire. It is {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(amaze) to ride along the walls to survey this fascinating city.

    The Tang Dynasty Music and Dance show is not to be missed, but my favorite is an art gallery, {#blank#}4{#/blank#}we can enjoy some beautiful artwork and learn how to write Chinese characters.

    Most tourists make{#blank#}5{#/blank#}way to Xi' an to see the life-size terracotta warriors (兵马俑) and we were no  {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(difference). The collection, which shows the armies of the first Emperor of China, {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(remain) hidden until 1974 when they were discovered by a farmer sinking a well. Walking among the statues is forbidden unless you are a VIP — but there are plenty of souvenir{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(shop) in which tourists can buy the replicas(复制品)of them.

    All too soon it was time{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(leave). I really enjoyed my stay in Xi' an. It is indeed a place of interest worth{#blank#}10{#/blank#}second visit.

    Once James Thornhill, a famous English painter, was asked {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (paint) some pictures on the walls of the king's palace in English. Then workers were sent for and {#blank#}2{#/blank#} big platform was made. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} the help of a worker, Thornhill started painting on the platform. They worked for a whole year {#blank#}4{#/blank#} at last the pictures were ready.

    Thornhill was happy when he looked at the pictures, for they were {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (real) beautiful. He looked at them for a long time, and then took one step back and looked again. Now the pictures were even {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (much) beautiful. He took another step, then another. Finally he was at the very edge of the platform, but he did not know it because he {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (think) of his pictures.

    The worker saw everything. "{#blank#}8{#/blank#} should I do?" he thought. "Thornhill is at the very edge of the platform. If I cry out, he will take another step, fall off the platform and surely be killed." So the worker quickly took some paint and threw {#blank#}9{#/blank#} at the picture. "What are you doing?" cried the painter, {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (run) quickly forward to his pictures.

    If you only got six hours' shut eye last night, there is no need {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (lose) sleep over it.

    Scientists say that though it is {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (wide) believed that we need eight hours of sleep a night, six to seven hours is the natural amount.

    Advising short-sleepers to rest easy, the US researchers say, {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (have) important implications (暗示，含义) for the idea that we need to take sleeping pills because sleep has been reduced from {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (it) natural level by the widespread use of electricity, TV, the Internet and so on.

    The lead author of a study, Ghandi, said: "There's the {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (expect) that we should all be sleeping for eight or nine hours a night, and if we took away modern technology, we would be sleeping more. But now, for the first time, we are showing that's not {#blank#}6{#/blank#} truth."

    Most of those {#blank#}7{#/blank#} were studied slept for less than seven hours a night, with the average amount just six hours and 25 minutes. This is much less than the eight hours often {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (recommend) in western societies.

    Despite this, the people studied were in good health, {#blank#}9{#/blank#} lower rates of obesity (肥胖症), better blood pressure and {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (healthy) hearts than people in industrialised societies. They were also fitter.
