Patient: Good morning, doctor.

Doctor: Morning. What seems to be the trouble?

Patent: It's my vision. I can't see well at night, and when I wake up in the morning, it takes me a few minutes {#blank#}1{#/blank#} I can see clearly.

Doctor: OK. I'm going to take a closer look. Just relax. How {#blank#}2{#/blank#} has this been going on?

Patient: A couple of weeks, I guess -- wow, that's bright!

Doctor: {#blank#}3{#/blank#} it hurt when I do that?

Patient: Not exactly. It's just really bright.

Doctor: OK. Please, go on.

Patient: Well, I {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (walk) down to the basement in my house about three weeks ago when I slipped and bumped my head pretty hard on the steps.

Doctor: Where exactly did you hit your head?

Patient: Right on the back. I heard a loud sound, {#blank#}5{#/blank#} everything seemed to be okay.

Doctor: You didn't get it {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (check) out then?

Patient: No, I didn't. Well, a week passed, and all of a sudden I started to have problems {#blank#}7{#/blank#} my sight. I first noticed it when I was driving back home from work. It's gotten {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (bad) over the past week.

Doctor: I'm glad you came. I'm going to order some tests, and I want to make {#blank#}9{#/blank#} appointment for you to see a specialist tomorrow morning. {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (hope), nothing is too serious.

    There has been a recent trend in the food service industry toward lower fat content and less salt. This trend, which was started by the medical community（医学界） {#blank#}1{#/blank#} a method of fighting heart disease, has had some unintended side {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (effect) such as overweight and heart disease-the very thing the medical community was trying to fight.

    Fat and salt are very important parts of a diet. They are required {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (process) the food that we eat, to recover from injury and for several other bodily functions. When fat and salt {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (remove) from food, the food tastes as if is missing something. As {#blank#}5{#/blank#} result, people will eat more food to try to make up for that something missing. Even {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(bad), the amount of fast food that people eat goes up. Fast food

    {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (be) full of fat and salt; by {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (eat) more fast food people will get more salt and fat than they need in their diet.

    Having enough fat and salt in your meals will reduce the urge to snack(吃点心) between meals and will improve the taste of your food. However, be {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (care) not to go to extremes. Like anything, it is possible to have too much of both, {#blank#}10{#/blank#} is not good for the health.

    Robot teachers are now very popular with pupils in some primary schools in South Korea. Compared with human teachers, the robot teachers are {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (patient). They never get angry and are always kind to the students. That's {#blank#}2{#/blank#} the children can always get on well with their robot teachers.

    English-teaching robots {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (send) to three primary schools for eight weeks last December. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (equip) with a microphone and video camera, the robots teach students as teachers. Researchers found that the English-teaching robots helped raise students' interests in the language and build up their {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (confident). More and more students came to like studying and they got better grades in exams. Meanwhile, other robot teachers, {#blank#}6{#/blank#} can teach math, science and art, have also been developed.

    Many people think these robot teachers should be used {#blank#}7{#/blank#} faraway village schools so that the children there can also receive a good education. {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (give) rural school children more learning chances, the South Korean government has expressed great interest in {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (develop) these robots. No doubt there will be more and more robot teachers working with students. Perhaps they will {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (complete) replace human teachers one day in the future. Who knows?

    In my opinion, we should try our best {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (realize) our goals even though {#blank#}2{#/blank#} is little hope. The efforts seem to be the lights in the darkness, leading the way to hope and success.

    I used to be {#blank#}3{#/blank#} shy girl in my primary school. I was weak in English at that time, especially for {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (speak) English. So I was afraid to answer the teacher's questions during English classes. After I entered my dream middle school. Something {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (change). I started to read many {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (interest) English stories and my English teacher was patient to help me a lot. I studied hard in class and practiced by watching English films and listening to English songs in my free time. Little {#blank#}7{#/blank#} little, I found {#blank#}8{#/blank#} more and more interesting to learn English. I could even talk with my classmates {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (fluent) in English and I was not shy any more. At last, I got high grades in English and I had {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (confident) to do it better in the future.
