Music is in the corners of everyday life. It is said to be beneficial to us both {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(physical) and mentally.

    There are many ways to make music. For example, if you blow into bamboos or shells, {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(permit) air to come in, they can produce pleasant music. A recent discovery suggests that music was played much earlier than we think. In 1995, deep in {#blank#}3{#/blank#} cave in Slovenia {#blank#}4{#/blank#}was occupied 45,000 years ago by Neanderthals, a leg bone of a bear with four finger holes was found. The discovery suggested that flutes（笛子）had come into {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (exist) at that time. Later, many other {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(tradition) musical instruments like drums were dug out from underground. Ancient people even {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(seek) a way to make music out of a bow that {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(intend) for hunting, so we have to admit that they did have a great gift {#blank#}9{#/blank#} music. But if exactly dated, the Neanderthal flute is by far the {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(early) known example of music.

    Now music can be found in every known culture, and even the most distant groups have a certain form of music.

Just as I began a new job in New York, I had another important job: father. I was a businessman. At the office I had three new {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(project) and at home I had a young son who was growing fast and {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (need)me. I was puzzled and didn't know how to deal with the relationship{#blank#}3{#/blank#}job and family until one day, during my business trip in Chicago, I came across an old family friend Dan, {#blank#}4{#/blank#}was once a patient of my father. He told me something about my father. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} was my father that helped him go through the cancer. When Dan knew he got cancer, he was very upset and wanted{#blank#}6{#/blank#} (give) up, but my father, his doctor, encouraged him to go on{#blank#}7{#/blank#} (fight) against the cancer. My father said to him, "You have {#blank#}8{#/blank#} wonderful life and three fine children. Take some time with them. It is family that we live for—-not just ourselves. Think of that {#blank#}9{#/blank#} you will know life's worth the fight." His words touched me, and I {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(sudden) realized that family is the most important in the world. I should spend more time staying with them.

    China is famous for its bewildering and oftentimes confusing highway interchanges (立体交叉道), but the Qianchun interchange in {#blank#}1{#/blank#} mountainous province of Guizhou is the only one {#blank#}2{#/blank#} actually looks like a giant rollercoaster for cars and trucks.

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (Construct)on the Qianchun Interchange began in 2009, but the massive road knot was only completed last year. It {#blank#}4{#/blank#}  (consist)of 18 different ramps, in 8 directions, on five different layers, with the highest one {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (stand)37 meters above ground. Like the nearby Huangjuewan Overpass, in Chongqing, this incredibly complex infrastructure project has been labelled a nightmare for {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (motorist) trying to find their way around.

    People on social media pointed {#blank#}7{#/blank#} that GPS systems would be confused by the five different layers of road, but officials claims that the directions and exits on the interchange are {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (clear)marked and that even if you make mistakes, it's always easy to turn around. Still, just looking at this thing leaves me {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (confuse).I can't imagine {#blank#}10{#/blank#} having to find my way around it must be like.
