Imagine life as a game in which you are playing some five balls in the air. You name{#blank#}1{#/blank#} (they)—work, family, health, friends and spirit, and you're keeping all these balls in the air.

       You understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. But the other four balls are made of glass. If you drop one of them, it will be scuffed（磨损）, damaged or even broken into {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (piece). They will never be the same. You must understand the balance in your life. How?

        Don't compare yourself with others. It is because we are different and each of us{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(be) special. Don't set your goals by what other people consider important. Only you know {#blank#}4{#/blank#}is best for you. Don't give {#blank#}5{#/blank#} when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (try). Knowledge is weightless,{#blank#}7{#/blank#} treasure you can always carry{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(easy). Don't run through life so fast that you forget not only where you've been, where you are, but also where you{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(go).

        Life is not a race, but a journey to {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (enjoy) slowly each step of the way. Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a gift. That's why we call it—the present.

    China's most famous wall may have been built to keep people away, but a new kind of wall is bringing people a lot {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (close) together.

    On January 29, hooks and hangers appeared on the side of a Qingdao building under the words: "If you need it, take it." This "wall of {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (kind)", the creation of local charity Chuangyi Workshop, {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (invite) passers­by to leave their spare warm clothes and encourages those {#blank#}4{#/blank#} are in need to take them.

    "It is just like what you do at home. You hang your clothes when you get home. You take them down {#blank#}5{#/blank#} put them on when you go out," said Wang Lei, director of Chuangyi Workshop. {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (inspire) by a similar plan in Iran, she put it into practice in China as the country experienced {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (it) coldest winter in decades.

    Wang and her colleagues receive lots of clothes from people, especially in winter. She {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (touch) by people's generosity. "Some of the clothing is almost new. I don't even have to wash my hands {#blank#}9{#/blank#} sorting it."

    Many such walls have also appeared in several other Chinese {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (city). This simple way of helping people is now making a big difference to society.

    Dario and his mother loved their new apartment {#blank#}1{#/blank#} living room was large enough for their piano. That night, the two of them sat side by side at the piano. They played jazz music {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (celebrate) their new home. The loud music filled the room and made them feel very happy. The next morning, {#blank#}3{#/blank#}, their happiness disappeared. Someone had left a note under their door during the night. One of their neighbors {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (write) to complain (抱怨) about the sound of the piano. Dario's mother asked the doorkeeper {#blank#}5{#/blank#} he knew anything about it. But he said 'no'. Later that morning, Dario suggested that they should hold a party at home and apologize {#blank#}6{#/blank#} their playing.

    They {#blank#}7{#/blank#} loved the idea. Over the next few days, they sent out {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (invite) and decorated the apartment with party lights. {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (final), the day of the party arrived. The guests brought different presents. One woman even presented Dario with a book of piano music, which gave them a feeling of warmth. Dario apologized and was already looking forward to {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (practice) the new music.
