Nearly all of us have dreamed about winning the big prize in a lottery(彩票). We dream about {#blank#}1{#/blank#} we would do with the money, but we seldom stop to think about how the money would change us.

    For most of us, our way of life is {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (close) connected with our social economy. The different parts of {#blank#}3{#/blank#} lives fit together like a jigsaw(拼板) — work, home, friends, hobbies and sports make up our world.  A sudden fortune would change it all and break the jigsaw. For example, some people like the idea {#blank#}4{#/blank#} not having to work, but winners have found that without work there is no reason to get up in the morning. It seems great {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (move) to a bigger house in a wealthy area, {#blank#}6{#/blank#} if you do that, you leave old friends behind.

    Usually, winners {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (advise) not to make their addresses and phone numbers known, but begging letters still arrive. {#blank#}8{#/blank#} they are not careful, most of their money will be spent {#blank#}9{#/blank#} the {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (protect) of their possessions(财产).

    A university in southeast China has a new server in {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(it) canteen making noodles for the students. The video{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(show) a robotic chef working in the kitchen and making noodles {#blank#}3{#/blank#}dough (面团) at South China Agricultural University.

    It was given human-like facial features (特征) and can be seen{#blank#}4{#/blank#}（wear) a face mask, hat and chef's uniform. The robot was designed{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(improve) the traditional way of making “Dao Xiao Mian", {#blank#}6{#/blank#} is a specialty in Shanxi Province in northern China.

    {#blank#}7{#/blank#}traditional), a chef will hold a large piece of dough in one hand and a knife in the other before starting to peel strips(条) off the dough. {#blank#}8{#/blank#}dough will then fall into the pot of boiling water and cook into noodles. A student said: “I've heard that there are always long {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(queue) at the knife-cut noodle stall at the canteen."

    However, web users on Chinese social media said the robot chef{#blank#}10{#/blank#} （be） not something new. The use of robots in restaurants is becoming increasingly popular in China over the past few years.

    Babies are great and lots of fun. We all love babies and we need babies, too. Many countries don't have enough of them. That's a big problem.

    Most babies grow up to become workers. As the number of workers {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (grow), a country can produce more things. That often means people's lives become easier and more {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (comfort). But without enough babies, a country {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (gradual) gets old. Many countries provide services {#blank#}4{#/blank#} their people like health care. These services {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (pay) for by young working people. But they are mostly used by old people {#blank#}6{#/blank#} aren't working any more. Without enough young people, countries can't afford these things.

    Countries are dealing with {#blank#}7{#/blank#} problems in different ways. Many countries are encouraging people {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (have) more babies. Since raising children is expensive, some countries give families extra money. Some other countries change rules {#blank#}9{#/blank#} it is easier for mothers to study and work. Others are welcoming immigrants (移民) from other{#blank#}10{#/blank#} (place). How do you think this problem should be solved?

    Chinese communities around the world welcomed the Year of the Pig {#blank#}1{#/blank#} February 5th. Celebrations took place across the globe, ranging from Southeast Asia's centuries-old Chinese communities to the more recently {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (establish) Chinatowns. In the streets of several European {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (city), performances of dragon dances and lion dances drew huge crowds of people. Celebrations in London are expected {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (last) a month with series of activities, {#blank#}5{#/blank#} is the biggest Chinese New Year celebration outside Asia.

    Keeping a diary in English is a{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(use) way to improve our English writing abilities. Compared with other forms of writing, it is shorter and take{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(little) time. It can help us to develop the habit of thinking in English. If we insist on this practice, gradually we'll learn how to expresses {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(we) in English. Keeping a diary in English, we certainly run up against many difficulties. In the first place, it often happens that we have trouble {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(find) proper words and phrases to give{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(express) to our mind. Secondly, there are many idiomatic(惯用的)words in Chinese. And{#blank#}6{#/blank#}is extremely hard for us to put them into English{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(proper).

    As far as I am concerned, my suggestion is{#blank#}8{#/blank#}we should always have a notebook and a Chinese-English dictionary{#blank#}9{#/blank#}easy reach. Whenever something beats us, we can first put it down in our notebook and then consult our dictionary. We can also turn to our English teacher for help, if necessary. In short, I believe that it is of great use to keep a diary in English for the development of our writing{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(skill).
