In the past, it took a long time for people to find someone. Nowadays, however, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} the help of online communities, people can get their search {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (do) within a short period of time. All they need to do{#blank#}3{#/blank#} (be) get online and upload a picture of the person they are looking for, or share some basic information about this person. Because of the “footprints” people{#blank#}4{#/blank#} (leave) online, other Internet users are usually able to find anyone {#blank#}5{#/blank#} they are interested in.

    One example of this is a man who beat a dog cruelly. His  {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (violent) was recorded and uploaded online. In a very short time, the man was reported to an animal rescue team. In the end, he was punished and made to apologize. {#blank#}7{#/blank#} example involves a college student who refused{#blank#}8{#/blank#} (clean) up after her dog on the subway. Netizens revealed her personal information in order to punish her.  {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (wide) blamed for her behavior, this girl left college eventually. Many people thus began to debate {#blank#}10{#/blank#} a “witch-hunt” like this went to far or not.

    My feelings about science have {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (complete) changed. The science teachers {#blank#}2{#/blank#} my new school are excellent and {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (friend). The science{#blank#}4{#/blank#} (facility) are very good with laboratories that have all the {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (late) equipment. Our chemistry teacher takes us to public science lectures about four times {#blank#}6{#/blank#} term, which are always interesting, because the lecturers are famous at {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (them) area of science. In the last 20 years, seven Canadian scientists {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (win) the Nobel Prize. Now {#blank#}9{#/blank#} I'm becoming more and more interested in is physics and I want to study it at university. But my parents are {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (astonish), as they always thought I would become an English teacher.

Hotel Clerk: Hi, can I help you?

Man : Yes. I'd like a room {#blank#}1{#/blank#} the night, please. The sign outside says you have vacancies(空房)

Hotel Clerk: Yes, {#blank#}2{#/blank#} only a couple. I guess nobody wants to drive in such {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (storm) weather.

Man : I surely don't. How much are the rooms?

Hotel Clerk:  They are ﹩50 a {#blank#}4{#/blank#}.

Man : That's fine.

Hotel Clerk: I can give you Room 14. It is right beside the coffee shop. I just need you {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (sign) the register.

Man : There you go. I am {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (awful)hungry, Is the coffee shop still open?

Hotel Clerk: Yes, it is {#blank#}7{#/blank#} until nine o'clock. If you want anything after that, there are a couple of machines {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (sell) soft drinks, chocolate bars, and so on.

Man : Thank you. By {#blank#}9{#/blank#} way, is there a television in the room?

Hotel Clerk:Yes, we've got cable(光缆) TV.

Man : Oh, that's great.

Man : Ok. Thanks again.

    As an elderly couple was about to shut their phones off onboard a flight to Australia via Abu Dhabi, they noticed a {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (miss) call from their son-in-law. The plane was starting to roll forward on the runway when they {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (see) the text: Their grandson was in special care with {#blank#}3{#/blank#} serious illness. If they didn't get back soon, they might miss their chance to say goodbye.

The couple got the attention of the Etihad Airways crew,{#blank#}4{#/blank#}rushed to tell the pilot. Instead of {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (ignore) their beg to stay on schedule, the kindhearted pilot turned the plane back around to the Manchester Airport gate.

    A hear-warming {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (arrange) was made. From there, the rest of the staff jumped in to get {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (they) home as fast as possible. Some collected their bags and helped the couple through the airport, while others brought their car to arrivals so the grandparents could head straight home. The airline said they could use their tickets another time.

    “I've been in the travel business for {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (decade) and never heard of this happening,” the couple's travel agent, Becky Stephenson, told the BBC. They were aware {#blank#}9{#/blank#} the importance of saying goodbye for the couple, so they offered to help.

    The boy passed away the next day, when his grandparents would have been in Australia, but they reached his bedside in time to say goodbye. The couple felt greatly {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(thank).

    A few people have lucid (清醒的) dreams, in {#blank#}1{#/blank#} the dreamer is aware they're dreaming and can control the experience. Some others can learn {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (have) lucid dreams. The practice can be used to deal with frightening dreams. However, its potential has been limited by it often {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (be) so hard to achieve. Now, researchers have developed the most effective method yet for promoting lucid dreams.

    The researchers let 121 adults aged 19 to 75 pick something {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (see)in a previous dream. It was called a "dreamsign" that can serve {#blank#}5{#/blank#} a reminder to become lucid when met again. The {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (volunteer) were then handed capsules. Each person got a high-dose (大剂量的) capsule, a low-dose capsule and a placebo (无效对照剂) capsule, but they couldn't tell which was which. On three occasions, they woke in {#blank#}7{#/blank#} middle of the night, took a capsule, imagined their dreamsign and went back to sleep. The high dose was most effective, causing lucid dreams in 42 per cent of participants. About 27 per cent {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (report) lucid dreams with the low dose and 14 per cent after taking the placebo capsule.

    The potential applications are {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (excite). "This new method has the success rate we need to be able to {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (proper) do research on lucid dreaming," says Denholm Aspy at the University of Adelaide in Australia.
