Everyone has hobbies. It is hobbies {#blank#}1{#/blank#} make our life more {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(enjoy) and colorful.

    My bobby is singing English songs. When I was a child. I liked to sing very much. I remembered my mother {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(teach) me a nursery rhyme(儿歌) one day, “Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder what you are…”. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} I didn't quite understand the meaning, I remembered the words quickly because {#blank#}5{#/blank#}its end rhyme. Since then, I {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(fall) in love with English songs. I spend a lot of my pocket money {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(hunt) for English tapes.

    Whenever I am free, I will turn to my recorder and listen to my favorite songs. I even sing out with the recorder, {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (make) me forget my troubles for a while. At the same time I remembered a lot of classical songs, {#blank#}9{#/blank#} helps me to improve my English studies.

    So I benefit {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(great) from my hobbies. What about you?

    Last weekend our school held a sports meeting. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (realize) it was our last high school sports meeting, we decided to make it {#blank#}2{#/blank#} unforgettable experience for all of us.

    We first attended the opening parade, for {#blank#}3{#/blank#} our class had made a lot of {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(prepare).

    {#blank#}5{#/blank#} our excitement, our parade performance was a great success. After the parade, the games started. My classmates attended {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (vary) events such as running, high jump and long jump. Due to the hard training they {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (do) before, their performances were very {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (impress).

    My classmates applauded and cheered for the athletes, some raising their cameras to capture the exciting moments. Finally, the result {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (announce). {#blank#}10{#/blank#} was amazing that our class won the second place. Our efforts paid off! Cup in hand, we took a picture together. I believe this sports meeting will remain a precious memory for all of us as time goes by.

    Yu Rong, a Chinese artist, thinks of a new way to introduce {#blank#}1{#/blank#} ancient story of Hua Mulan in her picture book. In the book, I Am Hua Mulan, she tells the story by{#blank#}2{#/blank#}（combine） paper﹣cutting with international artistic styles. She places Shaanxi paper﹣cuts over western﹣style pencil sketches（素描）{#blank#}3{#/blank#}（create） a typical presentation of Chinese elements （元素）,which turns out to be a {#blank#}4{#/blank#}（success） and impressive breakthrough.

    Hua Mulan,{#blank#}5{#/blank#} story has been told by generations in China, is a fighter from the Northern Wei Dynasty（386﹣534）. As a devoted daughter, she dressed herself as a man to serve in the army{#blank#}6{#/blank#}place of her father. Mulan's characteristics, such as courage, kindness and a disinterested attitude toward fame and fortune, made{#blank#}7{#/blank#} （she） one of the most respected historical Chinese heroines. Mulan's story has been adapted{#blank#}8{#/blank#}（frequent） in modern media, including TV shows, video games and literature. For example, in 1998, Disney produced a film named Mulan, which {#blank#}9{#/blank#}（consider） a great success by critics and the public.

    To better tell the story, Yu Rong takes inspiration from her several {#blank#}10{#/blank#}（visit） to sites of ancient battles and Henan province's Yuju Opera. After years of preparation she finally makes this extraordinary work.

    When I was 14 years old, my best friend {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (drag) me to an after-school dance class, {#blank#}2{#/blank#} I enjoyed so much that I have been dancing ever since. After every dance class, however, I always have to stretch out my legs and back! It feels like as much exercise as {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (go) to the gym—but dancing is not {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (wide) considered to be a sport.

    Many dancers would argue that dancing is a sport, as it requires strong muscles and impressive flexibility. No matter what style of dance you are participating in, you will always be using all of {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (you) muscles while dancing and this can often be for several hours a day.

    On {#blank#}6{#/blank#} other hand, many people argue that dance is an art form. Dances often exhibit emotion (情感), tell {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (story), etc. Dancing to music is creative and visually appealing to the eyes and ears, just like watching a play or a(n) {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (profession) band. The shining costumes, the stage make-up and the big hairstyles are artistic and imaginative.

    However, whether you consider dance to be an art {#blank#}9{#/blank#} a sport, the important thing is to enjoy it! Dancing is a great way {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (make) new friends and exercise!

    It was the spring of 1943 during World War Ⅱ. Standing among hundreds of new {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(soldier)at Camp Grant, Sam, just 18 years old, waited as a truck slowly drove by. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} full field pack was randomly thrown to each soldier.

    Sam received{#blank#}3{#/blank#} (he). After he opened the pack and looked at the things in it, he was greatly{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(astonish). He found his last name, Litrenti, was marked on each thing in his pack. "How strange!" Sam thought. He didn't think the one {#blank#}5{#/blank#} threw the field pack to him knew who he was.

    So why was Sam's last name marked on the things? You may not believe it, but it was the field pack that his father {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(use)during World War I.

    Sam {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(certain) didn't know that when he received it. It wasn't until after the war {#blank#}8{#/blank#} he found out why.

    After the war, he talked {#blank#}9{#/blank#}that with his father. After {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (talk)for a while, Sam's father became sure that the pack once belonged to him.

    Both the father and the son couldn't believe that! What a coincidence!
