The Amber Room {#blank#}1{#/blank#}to the great wonders of the world. It was originally {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(design) for the palace of Frederick Ⅰ. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}took the country's best artists about ten years to finish it. Everyone thought {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(high) of its style and design. Several tons of amber as well as gold and jewels were used to make it, so no wonder it is worth a lot of money. But later, the next King of Prussia decided to give it as a gift to Peter the Great, {#blank#}5{#/blank#} gave Prussia a troop of his best soldiers in {#blank#}6{#/blank#}. Unfortunately, during the Second World War, the Nazi Germany was at war with Russia. In 1941, Germany invaded (入侵)Russia, and the Russians had no time to {#blank#}7{#/blank#}anything from the Amber Room except some furniture and small art objects. When the Nazis saw the Amber Room, there was no {#blank#}8{#/blank#}that they liked it so much that they took it apart and in less than two days 100,000 pieces were put inside twenty-seven wooden boxes. The boxes were then put on a train for Konigsberg. Since then, the whole world has been in {#blank#}9{#/blank#} of the Amber Room. No one knows what {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (happen) to it and whether it still exists now. Maybe it will remain a mystery forever.

    There was a man who had four sons. He hoped his sons could learn not to judge things too quickly. So he gave them a task in turn,{#blank#}1{#/blank#} (ask) them to go to see a pear tree at a distance{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(separate).

    The first son set out in winter, the second in spring, the third in summer, and the{#blank#}3{#/blank#}young)in autumn.

    When all of them returned home, they were called together{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(describe) what they had seen. The first son complained the tree was{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (bend) and ugly. The second son said the tree was covered with buds(花蕾)and full of hope. The third son said it was full of flowers{#blank#}6{#/blank#}smelled so sweet and that he had{#blank#}7{#/blank#}seen such beautiful scenery. The last son disagreed{#blank#}8{#/blank#}all or them, saying it was filled with fruits, full of life and content.

    The man told his four sons that they were all correct, but they only saw the tree in{#blank#}9{#/blank#}season, He taught them that the value of a person could only be measure when all the seasons were over.

    If you give up in winter, you{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(miss) the hope of spring, the beauty of summer, and the harvest of autumn in your life.

    A lot of films have tried to describe our memories of family members who have passed away. But few have done as{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(remark) as Coco, Disney-Pixar's latest animation, {#blank#}2{#/blank#} hit the big screen on Nov. 24 and won the Oscar in 2018.

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(inspire) by the Mexican holiday of Day of the Dead, the film's production team created a young boy, Miguel, who wants his family to understand his love of music. An accident takes him to the Land of the Dead. While there, Miguel has{#blank#}4{#/blank#}unforgettable and adventurous night.

    It's in this magical world{#blank#}5{#/blank#}Miguel gets to meet and discover the truth about his great-great-grandpa. To protect him from {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (disappear), Miguel has to bring his photo back to the living world as soon as possible.

    While told with a wild imagination, the story {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(convey) a clear and warm message. "In an era when young people are so easily attracted by {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(celebrity), Coco reveals the emptiness of such adulation (谄媚), teaching kids {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(preserve) and respect the memory of their elders while reminding them that the source of true creativity is so often {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(person)," wrote reporter Peter Debruge on Variety.

    It was the spring of 1943 during World War Ⅱ. Standing among hundreds of new {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(soldier)at Camp Grant, Sam, just 18 years old, waited as a truck slowly drove by. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} full field pack was randomly thrown to each soldier.

    Sam received{#blank#}3{#/blank#} (he). After he opened the pack and looked at the things in it, he was greatly{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(astonish). He found his last name, Litrenti, was marked on each thing in his pack. "How strange!" Sam thought. He didn't think the one {#blank#}5{#/blank#} threw the field pack to him knew who he was.

    So why was Sam's last name marked on the things? You may not believe it, but it was the field pack that his father {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(use)during World War I.

    Sam {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(certain) didn't know that when he received it. It wasn't until after the war {#blank#}8{#/blank#} he found out why.

    After the war, he talked {#blank#}9{#/blank#}that with his father. After {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (talk)for a while, Sam's father became sure that the pack once belonged to him.

    Both the father and the son couldn't believe that! What a coincidence!

China will establish a new special economic zone in the {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (heavy) polluted province of Hebei to promote integration(一体化)with {#blank#}2{#/blank#} neighboring cities of Beijing and Tianjin, the government has announced.

The Xiongan New Area will be {#blank#}3{#/blank#} the same national importance as the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone, {#blank#}4{#/blank#} helped kick-start China's economic reforms in 1980, the official Xinhua news agency said, citing a circular released by the Chinese Cabinet.

The new special economic zone {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(locate) around 100 km south-west of Beijing, close to the Hebei provincial capital of Shijiazhuang and will house some of Beijing's relocated "non-capital functions". It is currently only 100 square kilometers in area {#blank#}6{#/blank#} will eventually be expanded to 2, 000 square kilometers.

Beijing, home to 22 million people, {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(try) to control population growth and relocate industries and other non-capital functions to Hebei in the {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(come) years as part of its efforts to prevent pollution and crowdedness.

The removal of non-capital functions from Beijing is part of a greater strategy to integrate the development of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei for a better economic structure, {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(clean) environment and improved public {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(serve).
