High school students have defeated {#blank#}1{#/blank#} artificial intelligence device designed to pass the national college entrance exam, in Chengdu City, Sichuan Province.

    Forty-three students from liberal arts classes at Chengdu Shishitianfu High School joined the two-hour contest {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (finish) a math test in the standard national entrance exam against the robot, the brainchild of four years' research by Zhun Xing Yun Xue Technology Co.Ltd.

    Students scored 106 points {#blank#}3{#/blank#} average, outperforming the computer program that had 93 points. She Yujia, a student in the contest, said she felt like {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (fight) the program on behalf of humans, especially after Google's AlphaGo {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (beat) professional Go player Lee Sedol of South Korea last year.

    Researchers who developed the AI test taker, {#blank#}6{#/blank#} is also part of a project by the Ministry of Science and Technology, said the failure was due to a poor understanding of concepts in some math problems.

    Lin Hui, CEO of the developing company, said more efforts {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (make) to fix bugs and improve performance of the program in the near future, with a focus on math {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (apply).

    Chinese students are usually separated into science and liberal arts classes at high school, a practice that allows them to stay {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (compete) in the college entrance exam by choosing {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (prefer) subjects. Math tests for liberal arts students are usually easier than those given to science students.

    Felicity Miller, a 32-year-old British woman, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} has a Chinese husband, still remembers the {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (excite) when she first learned to use the “red packet” function on WeChat in 2015. She sent and grabbed some red packets in her Chinese family's group. The rule in her family was that the person who grabbed the {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (high) amount sent the next. Attracted by the unique way of communicating, many foreigners {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (join) in sending and grabbing red packets so far. Usually, the money in each packet is random. Thus the amount of money one can grab {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (large) depends on his or her luck, from 0.01 yuan to less than 200 yuan. Many foreigners get more familiar {#blank#}6{#/blank#} Chinese culture through “red packets”. Two years ago, when Felicity Miller was sent 5.20 or 8.88 yuan red packets, she had no clue about the {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (hide) meanings. Now, she has known about them. However, the popularity of virtual red packets doesn't stop people sending paper red packets {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (contain) real cash during the Spring Festival. It {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (call) lucky money. In Chinese tradition, people take lucky money for children as {#blank#}10{#/blank#} blessing.

Li Hua: I've {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (hear) that you enjoy Beijing opera, Edward. Is that true?

Edward: Yes, very much. I am really interested in this kind of art.

Li Hua: Sure, many {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(foreigner) are fond of it as much as Chinese people do.

Edward: I think Beijing opera is one of the most {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (interest) plays in the world, though I sometimes find it difficult for me {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (understand).

Li Hua: I feel the same way. There is a show in the theatre this evening. Would you like to go?

Edward: Really? {#blank#}5{#/blank#} does it begin?

Li Hua: At 7:30. And I guess it {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (last) two hours.

Edward: I'm free this evening. Let's go to see {#blank#}7{#/blank#} play together. Is that ok?

Li Hua: OK. {#blank#}8{#/blank#} I'll have to send an e-mail first.

Edward: It doesn't matter. It won't take you too long. I can just book two tickets by phone while you {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (send) your e-mail.

Li Hua: Good idea！

Edward: {#blank#}10{#/blank#} the way, do you know the number for booking tickets?

Li Hua: Of course. It's 3699899.

Edward: I think we will have a good time tonight.

    We all make mistakes more than once. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(hope), we learn from them finally. We all have wishes that we can't make {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(come) true. We all make a {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (judge) of other people and then find out they are really nice people. And we don't know what difficulty they have gone through in life {#blank#}4{#/blank#}has made them who they are. We all get jealous(嫉妒的) of others even if we shouldn't. We should be secure enough in ourselves and our partners and we should be happy for our friends when they {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(success) in something.

    We are all humans and have human{#blank#}6{#/blank#} (feel). That doesn't make us bad people {#blank#}7{#/blank#}that's part of {#blank#}8{#/blank#}makes us human .We just have to remember: when we have bad thoughts we have to turn {#blank#}9{#/blank#}into positive ones.

    We all have to be{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(thank) for what we have. Be kind to yourself and others and you will be happy.
