Although he is a famous scientist, Yuan Longping {#blank#}1{#/blank#} himself a farmer. Indeed, his {#blank#}2{#/blank#}face and arms and his slim, strong body are just like those of millions of Chinese farmers. Now Yuan Longping is {#blank#}3{#/blank#}his knowledge in India, Vietnam and many other less developed countries to increase their rice harvests.

    You may find it {#blank#}4{#/blank#}that Charlie was taught to sing as soon as he could speak. Unfortunately his father died,{#blank#}5{#/blank#} the family even worse off. He grew more and more popular as his charming character, the little tramp, became known {#blank#}6{#/blank#}the world. This character was a social {#blank#}7{#/blank#}but was loved for his optimism and determination.

    In the same way that people communicate with spoken language, they also express their feelings using {#blank#}8{#/blank#}“language” through physical distance, actions or posture. However, people from places like Spain, Italy or South American countries {#blank#}9{#/blank#}others closely and are more {#blank#}10{#/blank#}to touch them.

    Long time ago, a boy {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(name) Bob met a new friend in QQ, she is Larry.   Larry works with Transport Drivers. Inc. One morning in 2009, Larry was traveling along 165 north after delivering to one of his customers when he saw a car{#blank#}2{#/blank#}its bright lights on. As he got even{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(close), he found another vehicle upside down on the road. One more look{#blank#}4{#/blank#}he noticed fire shooting out {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(repeat) from under the disabled vehicle. Larry pulled over, set the brake and got hold of the fire extinguisher (灭火器). Two good bursts from the extinguisher and the fire {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(put) out.

    The man who had his bright lights on came over and told Larry he had made a call. They then heard a woman's voice coming from the damaged vehicle.{#blank#}7{#/blank#} (approach) the vehicle, they saw that a woman was trying to get out of the broken window. They told her to stay still, but she thought the car was going to explode. Larry told her that he had already put out the fire.

    Once fire and {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(emergent) people arrived, Larry and the other man backed off and let them go to work. Then, Larry asked the police {#blank#}9{#/blank#}he was needed or free to go. They let him and the other man go.

    One thing is for certain—It {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(be) his efforts that most likely saved the woman's life.

    Parkour（跑酷）is a sport which trains people to deal with any physical obstacles in their path. It is not a competition but a physical training. A person joining in parkour is called traceur. Traceurs run along a path and use only their bodies to deal with the obstacles in the most efficient way. Parkour pays more attention to efficiency{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(make) it different from the similar practice of free running. Parkour{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(common) includes running, jumping, climbing, rolling and other similar types of physical movements. Many teenagers think that parkour is quite {#blank#}3{#/blank#} cool sport. They have great interest in it.

    The {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(invent) of parkour can't {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(give) to one person because many people have worked on it. A French officer developed the earlier form of parkour. The term “parkour” was first introduced by David Belle and Sebastiar Foucan in the early 1980s{#blank#}6{#/blank#} that time, they were two teenagers. This sport {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(become) more popular in the1990s when many films were made on it.

    {#blank#}8{#/blank#} makes parkour different from other sports is its power to bring people together. It allows traceurs to forget the {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(society) and other problems, and makes a large group work and grow together instead of competing with each other. People can benefit from parkour as it can make them stronger. Still, it also influences one's thought process by improving self-confidence and critical-thinking skills. In this way, parkour allows one to deal with {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(difficulty) in daily life if he or she deals with them through parkour.

    One day, I saw a kid walking home from school. His name was Kyle. It looked as if he was carrying all of his books. I had quite a weekend {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (plan), so I shrugged my shoulders and went on. As I was walking, I saw {#blank#}2{#/blank#} bunch of kids running towards him. They ran at him, {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (knock) all his books out of his arms and he landed in the dirt. His {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (glass) went flying. He looked up and I saw the terrible {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (sad) in his eyes. My heart went out to him. So, I jogged over to him as he crawled around looking for his things. Later, we talked all the way home, and I carried some of his books. He looked hard at me and gave me a little smile. “Thankfully, I {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (save). My friend saved me from doing the unspeakable.” Not until that moment did I realize its {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (deep). Never underestimate the power of your actions. {#blank#}8{#/blank#} a small gesture, you can change a person's life. For {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (good) or for worse, God puts us all in each other's lives to impact one another in some way. As you can see, friends are angels {#blank#}10{#/blank#} lift us to our feet when our wings have trouble remembering how to fly.

    There's no electricity {#blank#}1{#/blank#} water. However, one thing is for sure, I've become more imaginative in my teaching. Science is my most {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (challenge) subject as my students have no concept of doing experiments. In fact, there is no {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (equip), and if I need water, I have to carry it from my house in {#blank#}4{#/blank#} bucket! The other day I {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (show) the boys the weekly chemistry experiment when, before I knew it, the mixture was bubbling over everywhere. Sometimes I wonder {#blank#}6{#/blank#} relevant chemistry is to these students, most of {#blank#}7{#/blank#} will be going back to their villages after Year 8 anyway.

    Tombe's father, Mukap, led us to his house, a low bamboo hut with grass {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (stick) out of the roof — this shows it is a man's house. There were no windows and the doorway was just big enough to get through. The hut was dark inside so it took time for our eyes {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (adjust). Fresh grass had been laid on the floor and there was a newly {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (make) platform for Jenny and me to sleep on.
