    Xuexiang Village, formerly known as a forestry farm, has been transformed into a booming tourist resort. (locate) at the southern foot of Changbai Mountain, it has much snow. The snow here starts falling in October and begins to melt in April. A unique scene is the “snow mushrooms”, are formed after snow falls onto wood piles. Together with log cabins, pine trees and snowy mountains, place looks like a fairy tale world. Several decades ago, people (come) here as loggers. Years of excessive logging resulted a resource-shortage problem. After the natural forest protection project (launch) in 1999, the forestry farm stopped logging and started to make good use of the snow to develop the tourism industry. Amateur photographers first promoted the beautiful scenery, then, with the help of the internet, it (gradual) became famous and tourists began coming. (sense) the new opportunities, loggers started to open family hotels and restaurants. Nearly 80 (family) are now involved in tourism business. “My family can make 200,000-300,000 yuan each year, which (able) us to live a much better life”, said Fan, a used-to-be logger.

    How would you feel if you woke up and found your entire computers—including your photos, your recent documents—no longer{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(access)? What if you found out that they had been wiped from your computer, {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(leave) you with nothing but heartache?

    Guess what? It happens to people every single day. Every day, people across the country head into their local Apple store in{#blank#}3{#/blank#} (tear), broken computer in hand, praying as they wait in line that an expensive repair might, just might, recover the priceless, irreplaceable files. A few get lucky. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}for the rest, there's nothing anyone can do{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (help).

    Hasn't it happened to you? If your computer remains unprotected, it will, and it's only {#blank#}6{#/blank#}matter of time. But thanks {#blank#}7{#/blank#}recent breakthroughs in computer backup (备份) technology, you now have a number of options to prepare, and if you' re smart, when your computer{#blank#}8{#/blank#} (crash), you shouldn't have any trouble{#blank#}9{#/blank#} (get) 100% of your files back that same day. I'm not talking about an external hard drive. I'm talking about an online backup solution that runs{#blank#}10{#/blank#} (quiet) in the background on your computer. If you have one installed (安装),when your computer crashes, you'll be just one click away from bringing your files back to life.

阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。

    We all know that the Friday after Thanksgiving means a mad dash to the shopping centre for ridiculous sales. But how did this bargain shopping get {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(it) start?

    In fact, the first Black Friday had nothing {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (do) with Thanksgiving or shopping. The origin of Black Friday as we know it today started in Philadelphia during the 1950s and 1960s. Crowds of people would come to town the day after Thanksgiving for the annual Army­Navy football game to be held the {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (follow) Saturday. Streets and {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (store) were always crowded, which was great for business but made easy­pickings for shoplifters (行窃者). Local police called this “Black Friday”. Not only did they have to deal with extra traffic {#blank#}5{#/blank#} shoplifting, but they had to work extra hours and couldn't request the day off.

    The term didn't go national {#blank#}6{#/blank#} the late 1980s, but the {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (explain) changed. While shopkeepers {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (general) suffered financial losses most of the year, the increase of holiday shoppers marked the first day of real profit. In traditional accounting (会计) practices a few years ago, losses {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (record) in red ink, and profits in black ink. So the day after Thanksgiving, {#blank#}10{#/blank#} companies go “into the black” and make a profit, became Black Friday.

After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.

    We want our children to succeed in school and, perhaps even more importantly, in life. But the paradox(悖论) is that our children can only truly succeed {#blank#}1{#/blank#} they first learn how to fail. Consider the finding that world-class figure skaters fall over more often in practice than low-level figure skaters. Why are the really good skaters falling over the most?

    The reason is actually quite simple. Top skaters are constantly challenging themselves in practice. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (stretch) their limitations, they keep trying their best. They fall over so often, but it is precisely why they learn so fast. Lower-level skaters have a quite different approach. They are always attempting jumps they can already do very easily, {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (remain) within their comfort zone. This is why they don't fall over. In a superficial sense, they look successful, because they are always on their feet. Never {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (fail) in practice prevents them from making progress.

    {#blank#}5{#/blank#} is true of skating is also true of life. James Dyson worked through 5,126 prototypes (原型) for his newest vacuum before coming up with the design {#blank#}6{#/blank#} made his fortune. These failures were essential to the pathway of learning. As Dyson put {#blank#}7{#/blank#}: "You can't develop new technology unless you test new ideas and learn when things go wrong. Failure is essential to invention."

    In healthcare, however, things are very different. Clinicians don't like to admit to failure, partly because they have strongegos (自我) —particularly the senior doctors—and partly because they fear litigation (诉讼). The consequence is that {#blank#}8{#/blank#} learning from failure, healthcare often covers up failure. The direct consequence is that the same mistakes {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (repeat). According to the Journal of Patient Safety, 400,000 people die every year in American hospitals alone due to preventable error. {#blank#}10{#/blank#} healthcare learns to respond positively to failure, things will not improve.
