Once a group of 50 people was attending a seminar. Halfway{#blank#}1{#/blank#} his talk, the speaker stopped and decided{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(create) a group activity. He went around the hall and gave each person a balloon. Each one was asked to write his or her name on the balloon{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(use) a marker pen. Then all the balloons{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(collect) and put in another room.

    The speaker then led the group to the room full of balloons and asked them to find the balloon that had their name{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(write) on within five minutes.  Everyone was{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(hurry) searching for their name, bumping into each other, pushing each other around. It was chaos. At the end of the five minutes no one could find their own balloon.

    Now each person was asked to randomly collect{#blank#}7{#/blank#}balloon and give it to the person whose name was on it. Within two minutes everyone had their own balloon. When everyone quieted down, the speaker began to talk, saying that this is exactly{#blank#}8{#/blank#}was happening in our lives.

    We may like to think of{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(us) more important than others, but our happiness sometimes lies in the happiness of other people. Give them their happiness {#blank#}10{#/blank#}you will get your own happiness.

    While many countries love their tea, UK citizens are particularly proud of being “tea people”. The average UK citizen consumes nearly 2 kilograms of (dry) tea each year.

    Tea only made its way to England in large {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(quantity) in the first years of the 17th century. Tea from China and a few other Asian countries{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(sell) more widely in England at that time. Then tea was getting more and more popular among different social classes.

    There are many varieties of tea. They all come from the plant Camellia sinensis (茶树), and are{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(simple) processed in different ways. Black tea mixtures are still{#blank#}4{#/blank#}most common type drunk in the UK. The reason why black tea is dark in colour is {#blank#}5{#/blank#}the leaves have been allowed to oxidize (氧化) before drying. People usually serve {#blank#}6{#/blank#}with milk or lemon.

    You may still find tea made with loose tea leaves, served up in a pot, and {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(pour) into the best china cups with saucers for visitors, but behind closed doors it is likely to be served in a tall cup, and made with a tea bag.

    Tea is still a large part of daily life in the UK today, but it seems to be {#blank#}8{#/blank#}the decrease. Tea sales {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(fall) by 6% in 2014 alone.

    Still, what goes around comes around; it's sure{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(become) fashionable again.

    Last Saturday I went to the library as usually. At about noon, I was enjoying my reading near a lake while suddenly I hear someone crying for help. I went up to see what was happened. I was shocking to find a little child struggling in the water in the distance while many peoples were standing by without doing anything. Without any hesitation, I had pushed through the crowd as I took off my coat, but jumped into the water quickly. I managed to reach him and carried him back to safety. To his great relief, the kid was saved.

    I am proud what I did. I hope everyone can give a hand when someone else is in need.

    Today, Mount Qomolangma's peak is not a lonely place any more. Over 3500 people have{#blank#}1{#/blank#} (successful) climbed the mountain over the past years. Meanwhile, climbers have complained about{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(wait) for hours in the bottlenecks.

    In fact, the dangerous{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(crowd) aren't the only problem. All those climbers need {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(bring) a lot of gear (装置) and much of them ends up being left on the mountains becoming the world's{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (tall) rubbish dump.

    But the good news is{#blank#}6{#/blank#} some mountaineers are overtaking it to clean up Qomolangma. Mountaineers Paul and Eberhard are part of Eco Everest Expedition which has been cleaning up rubbish since 2008.So far they{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(collect)over 13 tons of garbage.

    Some of that rubbish is even being used for{#blank#}8{#/blank#} higher purpose. As part of the Mount Everest 8844 Art Project, a group of 15 artists Nepal collected 1.5 tons of garbage. They've changed the cans and oxygen tanks into74 piece of art that have are exhibited{#blank#}9{#/blank#}Nepal's capital. Part of the profit from sales{#blank#}10{#/blank#} (be) available for the Everest Pakeers Association which has helped ole rubbish of the mountain.

    According to a new survey, people who have owned pets may be more professionally {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(success), and this is absolutely good news for ambitious pet parents. The survey{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(conduct) by Kelton Global Research for Banfield Pet Hospital. The researchers surveyed 857 adults in the United States with a {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(vary) of careers. Among the C-suite executives surveyed, 93 percent grew with a pet in their home, with 78 percent {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(hold) that growing up with a pet helped cause their career success as an adult. So, how exactly does pet ownership cause career success? According to Banfield's research, executives reported that their pet helped teach them lessons like {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(responsible), creativity, sympathy and organization, {#blank#}6{#/blank#}have all been invaluable in the business world." At Banfield Pet Hospital, we've long recognized the special bond between people and their pets, as well as the positive impact pets have {#blank#}7{#/blank#}our society," Brian Garish said in a statement on Banfield's website. " {#blank#}8{#/blank#}the pet ownership lessons we learned as children, to the ways our four-legged friends currently help us progress, connect with others, and stay grounded, our latest research supports the idea --we've had all along-- {#blank#}9{#/blank#}there may be a link between pets and their ability {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(help) shape us as people.

Living in a city can be stressful. But people in Bogota, Colombia have found a place to help ease stress and get a{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(peace) break from busy life. The place is a {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(protect) park for hummingbirds(蜂鸟).

The park is at the top of Montserrat Hill. The area{#blank#}3{#/blank#} (contain) a forest which has turned into a quiet place for both people and birds. As the hummingbirds fly from flower to flower, some people take pictures with cameras or phones.

"Sometimes it doesn't seem real because we are close to{#blank#}4{#/blank#} city with the population of 8 million,{#blank#}5{#/blank#} create noise every day," said Camino Carter, a caretaker in the park. His job is{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(mix) water and sugar that is put in bird feeders.

{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(visitor) to the park can see between 25 to 35 different species of birds. But ten years ago, the hill was {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (complete) destroyed, and no trees {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(leave) on it.

Luckily, measures were taken by the government. Workers began to replant local trees and flowers to bring the forest back{#blank#}10{#/blank#} life.

Presently, there are 115 species of birds, including 18 kinds of hummingbirds in the park.
