    Wang Kun and Wang Wei are brother and sister. They have dreamed of {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(take) a great bike trip. It {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(be) Wang Wei who first had the idea to cycle along the Mekong River. They rode bicycles to travel along the Mekong River,{#blank#}3{#/blank#}source is in Qinghai Province. When it{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(enter) Southeast Asia, it travels {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(slow) through hills and low valleys and the plains{#blank#}6{#/blank#}rice grows. Despite the difficulties, Wang Kun and Wang Wei {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(determine) to begin their journey at {#blank#}8{#/blank#}altitude of more than 5,000 meters in Qinghai Province. During their journey, they enjoyed the continuous change of the weather. Finally, they reached Dali in Yunnan Province,{#blank#}9{#/blank#}which Dao Wei and Yu Hang joined them. The four of them went on with {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(they) great bike trip.

    Over time I have been changed quite a lot. I began as a {#blank#}1{#/blank#} machine in France in 1642. Although I was young I could {#blank#}2{#/blank#} difficult sums. I developed very slowly and it {#blank#}3{#/blank#} nearly two hundred years before I was built as an analytical machine by Charles Babbage. After I was {#blank#}4{#/blank#} by an operator who used cards with holes, I could “think”

    {#blank#}5{#/blank#} and produce an answer quicker than any person. At that time it was {#blank#}6{#/blank#} a technological revolution and the start of my “{#blank#}7{#/blank#} intelligence”.

    Poetry is never far away from our daily lives. Many of us grew up reciting classic poems, learning to enjoy this beautiful art form that's able to use just a few lines {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(express) such rich meanings.

    The Chinese Shijing, which dates back to the Western Zhou Dynasty, has a {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(long) history than the Homeric Epics(荷马史诗). Even today, classic poems {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(love) by a lot of people.

    To recognize the special {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(able) of poetry and get its creative spirit, World Poetry Day is held by the United Nations on March 21 each year to support linguistic diversity through poetic expression.

    The Chinese Poetry Congress(中国诗词大会) showing classic poetry is {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(extreme)popular. The competition saw over 100 hopeful participants taking part in {#blank#}6{#/blank#}number of challenges. The participants, {#blank#}7{#/blank#}ages range from 7 to 70, include students, farmers, teachers and foreign competitors with an interest {#blank#}8{#/blank#}Chinese literature.

    And even TV series involving poetry are very {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(success). For example, in The Legend of Zhenhuan, one of the drama's most moving songs was adapted from a poem {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (write)by Wen Tingyun of the Tang Dynasty.

Photographers Turn Their Cameras on Pets

In 2019 photographers Kendrick Brinson and David Walter Banks visited 14 countries on assignment. When the couple described the adventures {#blank#}1{#/blank#}they had experienced when photographing, people invariably asked, "But who takes care of your four cats and dogs?" They joked that the pet siter made a lot of money.

But 2020 couldn't have been {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(different). Due to COVID-19, Brinson and Banks never left the United States. Often, they didn't even leave their Los Angeles neighborhood. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} {#blank#}4{#/blank#}spending long hours in airport security lines and waiting-for the perfect lighting, the pair stayed along with dogs Tux and Tia and cats Rex and Kudzu. "Our pets became emotional therapy animals, and our only friends we could safely hug in a world {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(strike) by a deadly pandemic," Banks said.

As COVID-19 lockdowns swept across the world in March of 2020, the change made an especially great impact on photographers, who are accustomed to {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(spend) long periods abroad. And so many cameras {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(turn) on a domestic subject: the pet.

Research suggests that pets have offered emotional support during the pandemic, helping {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(make) the long days of isolation more bearable, says Emily MeCobb, a clinical associate professor at Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine at Tufts University. In fact, the pandemic has sped up a trend, according to McCobb's and other scientists' observation, {#blank#}9{#/blank#} the pet is becoming a member of the family. "In the past 20 to 30 years, the role of the pet in the family {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(take) on a whole new role," says MeCobb." It really hasn't been that long {#blank#}11{#/blank#}these furry child substitutes gained this kind of importance in American society."
