    In the USA the high school graduation ceremony is of great {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(important). 12th grade students, or seniors, who are about 17 or 18 years old, look forward to {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (attend) this event.

    The graduation ceremony itself takes place at the end of May or beginning of June, which usually {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (include) music awards, and a guest speaker. After the speech, students walk to the front of the room to receive their diplomas from the headmaster. Students start preparing for graduation a long time {#blank#}4{#/blank#} it happens.

    Today my topic is how {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (improve) our spoken English! Before we get {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (start), I would like very much to know how important you think spoken English {#blank#}3{#/blank#}! This is the basic question we have to figure {#blank#}4{#/blank#} before we solve our problems! Obviously, English is a language, {#blank#}5{#/blank#} makes it absolutely important to speak it out! As the {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (say) goes, you learn to swim by swimming and you learn {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (drive) by driving. So, if you want your spoken English {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (improve), you have to catch every chance to speak {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (with) worrying about losing your face or making mistakes! You should always remember and tell yourself that "practice makes perfect"! With a little more confidence and hard work of practice, {#blank#}10{#/blank#} won't take you too much time to make progress in your spoken English!

    Monkeys do not like it when others get more food {#blank#}1{#/blank#} they do, according to a new study.

    Researchers from Yale and Harvard universities found Capuchin monkeys punish monkeys {#blank#}2{#/blank#} get more food. "This sort of, 'If I can't have it, no one can' response is because {#blank#}3{#/blank#} psychological spite (怨恨), and it was{#blank#}4{#/blank#} (previous) thought unique to humans," said Kristin Leimgruber of Harvard University. She is a co-author of the research study. The researchers watched as some Capuchin monkeys {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (give) more food than others. They found that monkeys getting the {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (small) share pulled a rope to fold up a table holding the other monkey's bigger share.

    Another lead researcher, Laurie Santas, {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (explain) over email, "I think what we can conclude about humans is that some of our more embarrassing tendencies have relatively deep {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (root)." Santos said the spiteful response was not present with another member of the ape species—chimpanzees(黑猩猩).

    An earlier study, she said, showed chimpanzees would fold up the table of other chimpanzees {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (steal) food from them. But they would not punish chimpanzees who just happened {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (have) more food, Santos said. In other words, it was fine if another chimpanzee had more food as long as they did not steal it.
