—Not yet. It {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(paint)at present.

    For example, one evening when it was so warm, I stayed awake on {#blank#}1{#/blank#} until half past eleven in order to have {#blank#}2{#/blank#} good look at the moon by myself. But {#blank#}3{#/blank#} the moon gave far too much light,I didn't dare open a window. Another time five months ago, I happened {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (be) upstairs {#blank#}5{#/blank#} dusk {#blank#}6{#/blank#} the window was open. I didn't go {#blank#}7{#/blank#} until the window had to be shut.The dark, rainy evening, the wind, the {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (thunder) clouds held me {#blank#}9{#/blank#} in their power.It was the first time in a year and a half that I{#blank#}10{#/blank#} (see) the night face to face.

    No one thought that young Albert Einstein would grow up to change the world. He was so slow in learning to speak that he was considered a bit {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(fool).

    Albert Einstein was never happy in school. He answered slowly because he was very thoughtful, and he asked difficult questions, which made {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(he) teachers think that he was trying {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(make) trouble. The strict discipline（纪律）of a German school made him very unhappy.

    However, young Einstein {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(do) learn what interested him, and he was interested in what lay below the surface of {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(thing). For instance, his father once gave him a compass（指南针）. This made Albert curious {#blank#}6{#/blank#} the unseen forces that could keep a compass needle always pointing north. In his teens he read deep in science. He had already started to wonder about the mysteries of {#blank#}7{#/blank#} universe.

    At 17, Einstein entered the Polytechnic Institute in Zurich, Switzerland, {#blank#}8{#/blank#} he studied mathematics and physics. He stayed away from many lectures and did not impress his professors, but he was {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (actual) studying very hard all the time. When he graduated in 1900, he asked to be appointed as an assistant in the physics department but {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(refuse).

    With so much information available in books and online, it's easy {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (learn) a few new facts each day. But how much of that do you {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (actual) remember? {#blank#}3{#/blank#}your answer is not much, here is the good news. Scientists at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia, recently designed a new typeface (字体) {#blank#}4{#/blank#} was invented with read-it-and-forget-it people {#blank#}5{#/blank#} mind. Very appropriately, it's called Sans Forgetica.

    The idea behind Sans Forgetica is simple. The typeface is a tiny bit {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (difficulty) to read, which {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (mean) your brain has to work twice as hard to understand what it says. Because of that deeper focus, you'll have a better memory for whatever you're reading. That's not just a theory, either. The typeface was created by a team of {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (researcher) from RMIT University's School of Design and its Behavioural Business Lab. The group worked with a famous typographer Stephen Banham to test and improve {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (they) product.

    The typeface uses principles of cognitive psychology to create an effect {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (know) as desirable difficulty, the researchers note, which causes the brain to take part in deeper cognitive processing. The result is improved memory.

    Soudee, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} is a 24-year-old Frenchman, has already been at sea for two years. He {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (travel) along Africa's west coast, through the Caribbean Sea and up to the Arctic Ocean since he set sail from the Canary Islands in 2017. Soudee is {#blank#}3{#/blank#} only person on his sailboat but he brought along a pet hen with him. Soudee met Monique, the hen, on the Canary Islands shortly before he began {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (he) around-the-world voyage. He told a BBC reporter that he knew she was the one he needed.

    While planning for his trip, Soudee had considered {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (bring) along an animal for companionship (陪伴), but not {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(necessary) a chicken. Later he told the BBC reporter, "The hen is a good {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (choose). I don't have to spend much time looking {#blank#}8{#/blank#} it and I'm able to get eggs at sea."

    The story has also become popular on social media. One Twitter user wrote this week, "This hen has a(n) {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (good) life than me." Monique and her owner plan {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (sail) to Alaska next. You can find reports about Soudee's trip on his Facebook, Instagram and YouTube pages.
