    Praise can change a person. It is true that {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(encourage) words can turn our lives around. Praise is really {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (magic). Perhaps many of us have such experiences. Take myself {#blank#}3{#/blank#}an example. I was very naughty in the primary school. Most of the teachers and even my parents were {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(disappoint)  in me. But it {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (happen) that I once got a very high mark in {#blank#}6{#/blank#} examination and the head teacher {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (report) this to my parents. My parents praised me and told neighbors about it. I felt really happy {#blank#}8{#/blank#} became polite to others. Every time I heard others talk to me about my excellent examination result, I thought to {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (I) that I would work even {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (hard) and make greater progress. Just as Shakespeare said, “Our praises are our wages.”

    Good evening, everyone! It is my honor to be here to share something with you. Today my topic is “Stop {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(choose) merit students(优秀生)”.

    There is no doubt {#blank#}2{#/blank#} choosing merit students may inspire some students to learn from those models, which make many parents happy, for they always attach great importance to their education. However, this way has its {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (weak). As we know, the students are still young, and choosing merit students may be {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(harm) to their mental health by sorting them into good students and bad students. So it {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(obvious) doesn't benefit them in health. At the same time, teachers are always {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(drown) in teaching, thus ignoring their virtue and PE, which does more harm {#blank#}7{#/blank#} good to the growth of students.

As a matter of fact, what is more important is that we should take measures to enter their minds to find {#blank#}8{#/blank#} they are thinking and desiring. Only in this way can we really find an effective method {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(guide) them at school. Everyone may have a balanced {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(develop).

    That's all.

    Thank you for listening!

    Electric bicycles have made life a lot {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(easy) for food delivery workers here in China. More than 10,000 kilometers away, there was a familiar sight in New York City. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}, owing to a new policy, e-bikes can no longer be{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(common) seen on the street over there.

    City officials in New York are promising a crackdown(严厉打击) on e-bikes  The pollution-free vehicles are loved by environmentalists and the often poor workforce {#blank#}4{#/blank#}. relies on them. But there are also frequent complaints{#blank#}5{#/blank#} the bicycles from drivers and pedestrians(行人) who consider them{#blank#}6{#/blank#} public danger.

    Now it is legal to own and sell the bicycles, but{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(ride) them on the street could lead to a fine of up to $500. Businesses that equip their{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(employ) with the bicycles will also be heavily fined.

    The bicycles, which look just like regular bicycles, can reach speeds of 30 km/h and are sometimes operated recklessly (鲁莽的). Lots of people have stories about dangerous situations where they{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(step) out into the street, only to be nearly hit by a quick-moving e-bike.

    Police enforcement (强制执行) against the bicycles has already been tightened. Almost 1,000 of them{#blank#}10{#/blank#} (take) away by police since last year, an increase of several hundred from the year before.

    No one thought that young Albert Einstein would grow up to change the world. He was so slow in learning to speak that he was considered a bit {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(fool).

    Albert Einstein was never happy in school. He answered slowly because he was very thoughtful, and he asked difficult questions, which made {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(he) teachers think that he was trying {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(make) trouble. The strict discipline(纪律)of a German school made him very unhappy.

    However, young Einstein {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(do) learn what interested him, and he was interested in what lay below the surface of  {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(thing). For instance, his father once gave him a compass(指南针). This made Albert curious {#blank#}6{#/blank#} the unseen forces that could keep a compass needle always pointing north. In his teens he read deep in science. He had already started to wonder about the mysteries of {#blank#}7{#/blank#} universe.

    At 17, Einstein entered the Polytechnic Institute in Zurich, Switzerland, {#blank#}8{#/blank#} he studied mathematics and physics. He stayed away from many lectures and did not impress his professors, but he was {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(actual) studying very hard all the time. When he graduated in 1900, he asked to be appointed as an assistant in the physics department but {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(refuse).
