When you take a walk in any of the cities in the West, you can see a lot of people {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(walk) with dogs. It is still true that a dog is the most useful and faithful animal in the world, but the reasons why people keep a dog {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(change). In the old days people used to train dogs to protect themselves against attacks by other beasts. And {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(late) they came {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(realize) that a dog was not only useful for protection,{#blank#}5{#/blank#} willing to obey his master. For example, when people used dogs for hunting, the dogs would not eat what was caught without {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(permit). But now people in the city need not protect themselves against attacks of animals. Why do they keep dogs, then? Some people keep dogs to protect themselves from robbery. But the {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(important) reason is for companionship. For a child, {#blank#}8{#/blank#} dog is his best friend when he has no friends to play with. For young couples, a dog is {#blank#}9{#/blank#}child when they have no children. For old couples, a dog is also their child when their real children have grown up. So the main reason why people keep dogs has changed from protection {#blank#}10{#/blank#} friendship.

    A new football competition，Man V Fat，has been organize recently in England．{#blank#}1{#/blank#} (judge) from the name, it is easy to guess that players can only join if they are fat. They can only win when they score or lose {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(pound) after each game．So，the aim of this competition is  {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(get) overweight men to do regular exercise．

    Jay Ali，a bank manager，{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(find) it a brilliant idea．He said，“I don't want to go to weight loss classes in {#blank#}5{#/blank#}almost all participants are women．And I don't want to play football with my friends who are all{#blank#}6{#/blank#} (fat)than me，so this gives me the perfect opportunity to exercise with guys who are the same{#blank#}7{#/blank#} me．Here，no one judges me，so I don't have to get{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(embarrass)”．Mr Shanahan from Staffordshire shared the same opinion，“I took part in the competition after getting fed up with weight loss classes which were {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(main) filled with women．”

    {#blank#}10{#/blank#} seems that this football competition has offered overweight men an effective way to lose  weight．

    What's the one thing every child desires in school? More break time! And that's exactly {#blank#}1{#/blank#} four public schools are giving to students, which turns out to be beneficial to everyone. The four schools are carrying out the LiiNK program, a project that {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(satisfy) every kid's hunger for more rest and therefore helps encourage {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(create), develop character and promote success.

    LiiNK was inspired by Finnish approaches to {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(learn) based on the simple concept of giving children more outside playtime. In Finland, where the learning system has been in place {#blank#}5{#/blank#} decades, some of the students have the {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(high) scores on global assessment(评估) tests. Instead of spending increasing amounts of time inside the classroom, they're spending more and more time on physical activity.

    Some studies discovered that traditional break actually helps students improve {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(they) performance inside the classroom and it provides a platform for students to be able {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (function) at their best level.

    Other studies have shown that outdoor playtime decreases restlessness and tiredness, and has {#blank#}9{#/blank#} number of benefits such as improving motor skills, developing physical fitness, and promoting social development. All the children in these schools where the program carried out are happier because of it. So the best way to make children happy and successful is to {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(simple) let them be kids every once in a while.

    It's common to see food delivery workers riding electric bikes in a hurry through big cities in China. Some of them even risk {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (run) red lights to deliver their meals in time. However, such careless behavior often causes serious problems.

    The reason for the rise of such a careless behavior is that there is {#blank#}2{#/blank#} large demand for food delivery workers, and many companies offer high salaries {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(attract) new workers.

    In fact, food delivery workers are often under high {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(press) from their employers. They face company fines for delivering food late. Moreover, the more orders they take, the more money they can earn, {#blank#}5{#/blank#} leads to some workers checking {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(they) mobile phones for new orders while they are riding their bikes

    While most companies require delivery workers to follow traffic rules, it remains a problem whether these requirements and rules are {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(strict) obeyed

    To solve the problem, some cities {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(take) action since last year. Shanghai required the delivery workers should{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(train) on traffic rules and safety. Now in Shenzhen, if a delivery worker gets caught breaking traffic rules more than twice, he or she will be banned {#blank#}10{#/blank#} driving food delivery vehicles for a whole year.

    How do learning habits influence learning results？It's useful and necessary to discuss learning habits. There is a famous {#blank#}1{#/blank#} （say）"Good habits lead to good endings", which shows the importance of habits.

"An apple a day keeps the doctor away. "also {#blank#}2{#/blank#} （show） a healthy everyday habit helps to build up our body. Thus, good learning habits can help us gain great learning results, high scores and abundant knowledge {#blank#}3{#/blank#} （include）. At first, learning habits form our ways of thinking and attitude {#blank#}4{#/blank#} the content of our learning. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} （obvious）, a good habit can help us to speed up to reach our destinations. As we can see, developing a good habit is so important that I would like to introduce one kind of good learning habits — keeping {#blank#}6{#/blank#} learning diary every day. We can start the habit by {#blank#}7{#/blank#} （write）a learning summary and remember to record something impressive and meaningful. Keep it in mind, {#blank#}8{#/blank#}gradually we can gain this good learning habit and benefit from it.

    What's {#blank#}9{#/blank#} （much）, I find out that I still have some bad learning habits {#blank#}10{#/blank#} well. I can only concentrate on reading for a short time, and I will conquer this problem by spending more efforts on concentration practice.

    I believe that through my efforts, I can gain good learning results by having good habits.
