Chaplin was an extraordinary performer who {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(star) in and directed many outstanding comedies. Few people were bored {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(watch) his moustache, his gestures or his entertaining reactions when chased by {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(detective). Being drunk, sliding on a banana skin or whispering his own failures to nobody, he made us feel more content {#blank#}4{#/blank#}our life without any verbal explanation. His particular sense of humor has astonished everybody throughout the world up to now.

    In a small budget film, he played a badly-off person {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(wear) worn-out shoes and {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(mess) clothes. On one occasion, he {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(trap) by a snowstorm in a vast mountainous area. He overcame many difficulties, {#blank#}8{#/blank#} he was not fortunate enough. With all the porridge {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(eat) up, he picked out a shoe and boiled it to eat. What he performed was a total failure. According to an actress, his acting was so {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(convince) and amusing that everybody couldn't help bursting into laughter.

    When treating some friends to dinner, we Chinese often say, “The dishes are not good. Please forgive me.” In fact, it is a Chinese way of {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (be) modest. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} he really means is that all the dishes here are really wonderful! What he really hopes is compliment from the guests! But {#blank#}3{#/blank#} English would not understand it at all! Now that it is not very good, why should you present the dishes in front of us? The English would say to their guests “ Enjoy yourselves!” when eating and “hope you've enjoyed!” after eating.

    While {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (eat), we Chinese often say to the guests, “Eat slowly.” This would be very {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (puzzle) to the foreigners: Am I eating very violently? Am I eating too {#blank#}6{#/blank#} or too much?

    And now comes the end of the dinner when your guests {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (leave). The Chinese would say, “Walk slowly!” This is a very polite saying in Chinese, but will also be confusing to the foreigners: why can't I walk fast? Does it matter {#blank#}8{#/blank#} I walk slowly or not? Are you worrying that I may fall over? {#blank#}9{#/blank#} change your words {#blank#}10{#/blank#} a simple “Bye!” or “See you next time!”

    Americans are proud of their variety and individuality, yet they love and respect few things more than a uniform, whether it is the uniform of {#blank#}1{#/blank#} elevator operator or the uniform of a five-star general. Why are uniforms so popular there?

    Among the arguments for uniforms is that most uniforms look more {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (profession) than civilian (百姓的) clothes. People expect superior quality from a man {#blank#}3{#/blank#} wears a uniform. The television repairman wearing a uniform tends {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (inspire) more trust. Faith {#blank#}5{#/blank#} the skill of a garage worker is increased by a uniform. Uniforms also have many practical {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (benefit). They save on other clothes and laundry bills. They are  often {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (comfortable) than civilian clothes. Among the arguments against uniforms {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (be) their lack of variety and the loss of individuality. {#blank#}9{#/blank#} there are many types of uniforms, the wearer of any particular typeis generally stuck with it, without change. When people look alike, they will think, speak, and act {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (similar).

    This passage mainly tells us the {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(valuable) of a person. A collage student in this passage {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (choose)the wrong major and became more and more frustrated. He thought he couldn't be successful and achieve {#blank#}3{#/blank#}dream. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}, he only liked to listen to Yang' s class and never  {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(absence). He put a note and showed his value to Yang. One day, Yang told him the {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(different) between different potatoes. So this student understood the life and became successful.

    From this passage, I think, in our lives, we shouldn't move back when we have trouble with our study or work. {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (contrary), we must try hard to make our lives better and be {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(value) one in these common people. If we do, like this, we will show our value by ourselves and be found by top people. So we may change our destiny and become {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(success)

    All in all, I hope every one can show their value lively and {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(life)a successful life. Please remember：Be a potato, but be the best!

    Since a university education in the United States {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(be)very expensive, most students work in addition to studying. Students {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(usual)work part-time, but some students take full-time jobs.

    A typical job for a students would be working {#blank#}3{#/blank#}a waiter or waitress. Other typical off-campus jobs would include being a clerk in a store or delivering pizza. Sometimes students also find jobs on campus such as cleaning, working in a cafeteria or library or answering {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(telephone). Most student jobs are entry-level and low paying, but have flexible schedule {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(allow) students to attend classes.

    Sometimes students also hold more responsible positions such as managers, or if they are lucky, positions in their area of study, {#blank#}6{#/blank#} they hope will help them find employment after they graduate.

    {#blank#}7{#/blank#}double responsibilities of working and studying result in a very busy, {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (stress)life for some students. {#blank#}9{#/blank#}, it is the only way for many people to finance their college educations. Some Americans believe that the work experience is good for the students {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(they)since it gives them a taste of “the real world” outside the school.
