Many years ago, when I worked as a volunteer at Stanford Hospital, I got to know a little girl {#blank#}1{#/blank#} Liz who was suffering from a rare and serious disease. Her only chance of recovery appeared to be a blood transfusion（输血）{#blank#}2{#/blank#} her 5-year-old brother, {#blank#}3{#/blank#} had miraculously survived the same disease and had developed the antibodies needed to fight the {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (ill).

    The doctor explained the situation to her little brother, and asked the boy if he would be willing to give his blood to his sister. I saw him hesitate for a moment before{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (take) a deep breath and saying, “Yes, I'll do it {#blank#}6{#/blank#} it can save Liz.”

    {#blank#}7{#/blank#} the transfusion progressed, he lay in bed next to his sister. {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (see) the color returning to her cheeks, he smiled. Then {#blank#}9{#/blank#} face grew pale and his smile disappeared. He looked up at the doctor and asked with a trembling voice, “Will I start to die right now?”

    Being young, the boy had{#blank#}10{#/blank#}  (understand) the doctor; he thought he was going to have to give his sister all of his blood.

    As one of "China's new four great inventions", China's high-speed rail eyes the world again with "Fuxing". It is proud of a top speed of 400 km/h and a continuous speed of 350 km/h. It is {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (total) designed and produced by Chinese engineers {#blank#}2{#/blank#} any help from the West.

    China's high-speed train is not only known for its amazing speed, but also for its safety and comfort. Last year, it safely carried 1.4 billion {#blank#}3{#/blank#}, or the total population of Africa and South America {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (combine).

    In 2015, a video taken by a Swedish traveler became popular on social media both at {#blank#}5{#/blank#} and abroad. In the nine-minute video, a coin stood upright all the time on a fast-running high-speed train. It shows the steadiness (稳定) of China's high-speed train, {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (give) visitors a comfortable travelling experience.

    The service on China's high-speed rail is still improving. The new bullet train plans to increase the height, and the Wi-Fi network will {#blank#}7{#/blank#} the whole train. Its air conditioning system is designed to reduce the influence of the external pressure wave {#blank#}8{#/blank#} the train is passing through tunnels, easing {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (comfort) of ears.

    The rapid development of China's high-speed rail in the past five years {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (mark) China's increasing strength in technology and innovation. It has become a new symbol, showing China's great progress to the world.

    Of the three major drinks of the world—tea, coffee and cocoa—tea is consumed by the {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(large) number of people.

    China is the homeland of tea. Human cultivation of tea plants dates back to two thousand years ago. Tea from China, along {#blank#}2{#/blank#} her silk and porcelain, began to be known to the world more than a thousand years ago and since then it {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (be) an important Chinese export.

    At present more than forty countries in the world grow tea with Asian countries，{#blank#}4{#/blank#} (produce) 90% of the world's total output. All tea trees in other countries have their origin directly or indirectly in China. The word for tea leaves or tea as {#blank#}5{#/blank#}  drink in many countries are derivatives(衍生物)from the Chinese character “cha”. The Russians call it “cha'i”, {#blank#}6{#/blank#} sounds like “chaye”(tea leaves) as it is pronounced in northern China, and the English word “tea” sounds similar to the pronunciation of {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(it) counterpart（对应物） in Xiamen. The Japanese character for tea is written {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(exact) the same as it is in Chinese, though {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (pronounce) with a slight difference. The habit of tea drinking spread to Japan in the 6th century, but it was not introduced to Europe and America till the 17th and 18th centuries. Now the number of tea {#blank#}10{#/blank#}  （drink） in the world is still on the increase.

    A lot of films have tried to describe our memories of family members who have passed away. But few have done as{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(remark) as Coco, Disney-Pixar's latest animation, {#blank#}2{#/blank#} hit the big screen on Nov. 24 and won the Oscar in 2018.

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(inspire) by the Mexican holiday of Day of the Dead, the film's production team created a young boy, Miguel, who wants his family to understand his love of music. An accident takes him to the Land of the Dead. While there, Miguel has{#blank#}4{#/blank#}unforgettable and adventurous night.

When I was young, I often saw my grandmother dancing in the garden.{#blank#}1{#/blank#}she was old, her movements were still very beautiful. I fell in love with dancing at that moment. I started learning hip-hop. At first, I watched and followed the{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(dancer) on TV. Then I joined a dance club and made a career of dancing. From then on, dancing has become the most{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(wonder) thing in my life.
