    It is really hot in summer in the city where I'm studying, and hard to find a cool place to prepare for final exams.

    But I find that the {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(share) toilet in my dorm is pretty cool. It's quite clean as{#blank#}2{#/blank#} I don't even need to dress up to go there. I just read my book {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(sit) in the cool room without any disturbance (打扰). This is amazing.

    I love this place a lot, not just because it's cool and clean,{#blank#}4{#/blank#}because I can read aloud to practice my {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(pronounce). There, my voice sounds really{#blank#}6{#/blank#}_(wonder) because there's a slight echo (回声) to it.

    Once I{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(surprise) by the cry of one of my classmates who scared when he saw me there. He said unbelievingly, “You're studying in a toilet?”“Yes, that's right,” I replied. “I think it's the best place{#blank#}8{#/blank#} I can find. ” We both laughed.

    Life is full of joy that's just waiting to be discovered. Even if  we meet with troubles and {#blank#}9{#/blank#}_(difficulty) sometimes, we can always find a new way {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(overcome) them. We can always discover something we've never found before, and learn how to cherish (珍视) something we've never cherished.

    What might life be like if you looked very different from others? Most of us are lucky to be born with "normal" faces.{#blank#}1{#/blank#}, the movie Wonder shows us that there is no such thing as being normal and that beauty is more than skin-deep.

    {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(base) on a bestselling novel, the movie is about a boy named Auggie. He has a facial deformity (畸形) and has spent most of his life being home schooled. But as he enters middle school, his parents decide to send him to a private school. There, Auggie must deal with judgmental classmates and learn to accept{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(he) as he is.

    In the US, most kids{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(teach) that it is OK to be different. Most people in the US celebrate being unique.

    But some kids have difficulty{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(accept) uniqueness. It's easy to pick on someone who's different,{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(especial) if you have your own problems to deal with. This is another{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(center) theme from the movie—even the kids {#blank#}8{#/blank#}pick on Auggie have their own personal struggles.

    As Auggie's classmates get to know him better, they come to find that he's a nice kid {#blank#}9{#/blank#}a great sense of humor. They start to change their attitude toward him. In real life, it may take longer to see such changes happen. But if we give people {#blank#}10{#/blank#}chance, their hearts and minds may change in the end.

    The biggest house of cards, the longest tongue, and of course, the tallest man: these are among the thousands of records logged in the famous Guinness Book of Records. Created in 1955 after a debate {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (concern) Europe's fastest game bird, {#blank#}2{#/blank#} began as a marketing tool sold to pub landlords {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (promote) Guinness, an Irish drink, became the bestselling copyright title of all time (a category that excludes books such as the Bible and the Koran). In time, the book would sell 120 million copies in over 100 countries— quite a leap from its humble beginnings.

    In its early years, the book set its sights on {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (satisfy) man's inborn curiosity about the natural world around him. Its two principal fact finders, twins Norris and Ross McWhirter, moved wildly around the globe to collect facts. It was their task to find and document aspects of life that can be sensed or observed, things that can be quantified or measured. But not just any things. They were only interested in superlatives: the biggest and the best. It was during this period {#blank#}5{#/blank#} some of the remarkable Guinness Records were documented, answering such questions as "What is the brightest star?" and "What is the biggest spider?"

    Once aware of the public's thirst for such knowledge, the book's authors began to branch out to cover increasingly doubtful, little-known facts. They started documenting human achievements as well. A forerunner for reality television, the Guinness Book gave people {#blank#}6{#/blank#} chance to become famous for accomplishing odd, often pointless tasks. Records were set in 1955 for consuming 24 raw eggs in 14 minutes and in 1981 for the fastest solving of a Rubik's Cube (which took a mere 38 seconds). In 1979 a man yodeled(用真假嗓音交替唱) non-stop for ten and a quarter hours.

    In its latest appearance, the book has found a new home on the internet. No longer {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (restrict) to the limits of physical paper, the Guinness World Records website contains seemingly innumerable facts concerning such topics as the most powerful combustion(燃烧) engine, or the world's longest train. What is striking, however, is that such facts are found sharing a page with the record of the heaviest train to be pulled {#blank#}8{#/blank#} a beard.

    Originating as a simple bar book, the Guinness Book of Records {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (evolve) over decades to provide insight into the full range of modern life. And although one may be {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (likely) now to learn about the widest human mouth than the highest number of casualties in a single battle of the Civil War, the Guinness World Records website offers a telling glimpse into the future of fact-finding and record-recording.

    The polar bear is found in the Arctic Circle and some big land masses as far south as Newfoundland. While they are rare north of 88°, there is evidence {#blank#}1{#/blank#} they range all the way across the Arctic, and as far south as James Bay in Canada. It is difficult to figure out a global population of polar bears as much of the range has been  {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (poor) studied; however, biologists calculate that there are about 20,000-25,000 polar bears worldwide.

    Modem methods {#blank#}3{#/blank#} tracking polar bear populations have been employed only since the mid-1980s, and are expensive {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (perform) consistently over a large area. In recent years some Inuit people in Nunayut {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (report) increases in bear sightings around human settlements, leading to a {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (believe) that populations are increasing. Scientists have responded by {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (note) that hungry bears may be congregating(聚集) around human settlements, leading to the illusion(错觉) that populations are {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (high) than they actually are. Of {#blank#}9{#/blank#}  nineteen recognized polar bear subpopulations, three are declining, six {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (be) stable, one is increasing, and nine lack enough data.

    Who built the first canal? Perhaps some people long ago, living in {#blank#}1{#/blank#} dry country, discovered that they could dig ditches (沟壑) {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (irrigate) their fields with the river water. And naturally in the days {#blank#}3{#/blank#} boats were the most important means of transport, canals were the easiest means of reaching a place. Furthermore, a ditch {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (join) two rivers proved efficient for boat travel.

    Today, most countries in the world have canals. Even in the 2lst century, goods can be moved more {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (convenient) by boat than by some other means of transport. Some canals, such as the Suez or the Panama, {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (save) ships weeks of time by making their voyage a thousand miles {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (short). Other canals permit boats to reach cities that {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (situate) inland. Still other canals drain lands where there is too much water. Help farmers irrigate fields without enough water, and provide water power for {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (factory) as well.

    Most of the canals have a long history. Canals existed in Egypt thousands of years ago. And the Grand Canal of China was begun about 2, 500 years ago and took centuries to finish. During the seventeenth century, France built many canals that are still {#blank#}10{#/blank#} use today.

Around 74 % of adults globally are willing to get immunized{#blank#}1{#/blank#} the coronavirus if a vaccine(疫苗) became available 一but that may not be enough to defeat the fast-spreading virus, according to a survey{#blank#}2{#/blank#} (release) Tuesday.

A majority of respondents from all the{#blank#}3{#/blank#} (country) expressed their willingness{#blank#}4{#/blank#} (get) a vaccine, the survey results showed. China was the most enthusiastic country with 97% of respondents{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (indicate) they would like to be vaccinated,{#blank#}6{#/blank#} Russia was the least willing with only 54% interested to do so, the survey found.

"It's a concern that roughly one quarter of people globally are not intending to get a vaccine," said{#blank#}7{#/blank#} expert from the World Economic Forum.

Covid-19 is the formal name of the coronavirus disease, which{#blank#}8{#/blank#} (infect) more than 25. 4million globally and killed over 850, 500 so far ,according to data by Johns Hopkins University.

The most{#blank#}9{#/blank#} (frequent) cited reason for not wanting a vaccine is concern about the side effects, according to the survey findings. Other factors mentioned by respondents include their belief that a vaccine may not be{#blank#}10{#/blank#} (effect).
