As we all know, games play a very important role in the growth of children. Children should grow along with playing games; for, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} playing games, they can not only acquire knowledge, but also develop their abilities to get along with others.

      However, most children are {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(face) with a completely different situation. Most parents fear that games will prevent children from increasing new knowledge and {#blank#}3{#/blank#} the children will fail in the future examinations. So, instead of{#blank#}4{#/blank#} (let) the children themselves find and learn naturally from their surroundings, they force their children to take part in{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (variety) kinds of classes, learning English, playing{#blank#}6{#/blank#} piano or practicing drawing, etc. What's more, some parents put away the children's toys which are very useful in developing children's {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (imagine) and practical abilities.

      Here is a piece of good advice to those parents: {#blank#}8{#/blank#} you want to expect your child to be able to accomplish something, you must first of all develop his ability to adapt {#blank#}9{#/blank#} the new surroundings. That cram (填鸭式的) education can lead to nothing {#blank#}10{#/blank#} a failure in the children's growth.

    One morning，I was waiting at the bus stop，worried about{#blank#}1{#/blank#}  (be) late for school.

    There were many people waiting there， {#blank#}2{#/blank#}   some of them looked very anxious and{#blank#}3{#/blank#} (disappoint)．When the bus finally came，we all hurried on board.I got a place next{#blank#}4{#/blank#} the window，so I had a good view of the sidewalk.A boy on a bike{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (catch) my attention.He was riding beside the bus and waving his arms.I heard a passenger behind me shouting to the driver，but he refused{#blank#}6{#/blank#}  (stop) until we reached the next stop.Still，the boy kept{#blank#}7{#/blank#}  (ride)．He was carrying something over his shoulder and shouting.Finally，when we came to the next stop，the boy ran up to the door of the bus.I heard an exciting conversation.Then the driver stood up and asked，“{#blank#}8{#/blank#}  anyone lose a suitcase at the last stop？”A woman on the bus shouted，“Oh，dear！It's {#blank#}9{#/blank#} ．”She pushed her ways to the driver and took the suitcase thankfully.Everyone on the bus began talking about what the boy had done，and the crowd of strangers{#blank#}10{#/blank#} (sudden) became friendly to one another.

    Zoos are places {#blank#}1{#/blank#} animals are kept. There are some reasons {#blank#}2{#/blank#} keeping animals in zoos.

    Firstly, zoos are entertaining and interesting places of children. Most children like to see animals in zoos. Zoos also offer people {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (live) in big cities a chance of getting close to nature.

    Secondly, it is easier for scientists to research animals' lives when they are kept in zoos than they are in forests. Scientists can study animals' {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (relate), their life cycles, or their habits to learn how to breed animals, {#blank#}5{#/blank#} can reduce animal {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (extinct).

    Furthermore, the risk of dying out of some {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (endanger) animals is reduced because they are kept in safety.

    {#blank#}8{#/blank#}, zoos also cause some problems for animals, such as restrictions on their freedom. They also lose their “wild” character. For example, tigers might lose their {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (hunt) skills. Besides, zoos cost a lot of money for land, animals' food and labors. This may charge {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (expense) for people who want to visit zoos.

    Some time ago, a friend of mine who worked in a part of the city I didn't know very well, invited me to call on him. It took me hours {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (get) there and I took great trouble finding a proper place to park my car. As I was already half an hour late, I parked my car quickly on a non-parking place. At noon, just as I {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (leave) my friend's office suddenly I had no idea {#blank#}3{#/blank#} I had parked my car. I could hardly go up to a policeman and tell him that I had lost a small green car somewhere! I had to walk down street after street and examined each car {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (close). I was very happy to see a small green car just behind an old car. But how {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (disappoint) I was to discover that though the car was exactly {#blank#}6{#/blank#} my own, it belonged to someone else! I was very tired and went off for lunch. About half an hour later, I left the restaurant,{#blank#}7{#/blank#} was nearby, and walked down the street. Turning the corner, I nearly jumped for joy: my car was right in front of me. But soon I felt down because a ticket {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(attach) to my car.

    To tell the {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (true), driving in crowded cities is far from being a pleasure. So walking or cycling{#blank#}10{#/blank#} (be) a good choice.

    Has Jackie Chan retired? Surprise! He released a new film. A repeat of his action film in {#blank#}1{#/blank#} 1970s, Police Story 2013 is about a {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (devote) policeman named Zhong Wen (Jackie), {#blank#}3{#/blank#} works so hard that he doesn't have time for his family.

    As Zhong Wen is occupied {#blank#}4{#/blank#} his job, his daughter Miaomiao (played by Jing Tian) becomes rebellious (叛逆的) and gets into a relationship with the bar owner Wu Jiang (played by Liu Ye). Miaomiao asks Zhong to meet her at her boyfriend's bar, not {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (know) that she's being used by Wu Jiang to get to her father. Wu Jiang then keeps the bar's customers as hostages (人质) and asks for the freedom of Fu, a {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (crime) captured by Zhong years ago.

    Jackie Chan said that {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (physical), he had a hard time with the film because he did the fight scenes with real mixed martial arts fighters. "The fights were with genuine MMA (mixed martial arts) boxers, not stunt (替身) men," Jackie Chan revealed (透露). "So, {#blank#}8{#/blank#} didn't know how to control their strength when we {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (film) the fight sequences (片段). Those were rock-hard and solid kicks.”

    Police Story 2013, {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (bring) by Megavision Inc, will be on at the cinema on January 22.
