Qigong,{#blank#}1{#/blank#} (call) “Life Energy Cultivation” in China, is a practice of focusing on breath, movement, and awareness for exercise, and healing(愈合). If you have taken Chinese lessons, you must be familiar with Confucius, according to {#blank#}2{#/blank#}qigong provides a means to become a Junzi(gentleman) through awareness of morality. Taoism considers qigong to be able to provide a way to achieve spiritual improvement. Qigong is{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(traditional) viewed as a practice to balance qi (inner life energy), which is now practiced throughout China and worldwide.{#blank#}4{#/blank#}a form of gentle exercise, qigong is made up of movements that are typically repeated, strengthening the body. Qigong {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(believe) to help develop human potential, allow access to higher degrees of awareness, and awaken{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(one) “true nature”.

    What makes qigong special is that it can be done {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(lie), sitting , or standing; thus it is {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(access) for disabled persons, seniors, and people recovering from injuries. As a healing art, qigong practitioners focus on prevention and self-healing, which has been widely used in China as part of traditional Chinese medicine, and is included in the curriculum of Chinese{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(university). Besides, qigong is practiced for self-cultivation as a means to get rid of {#blank#}10{#/blank#}complexity of the earth.

    It's amazing that Chinese police are using facial-recognition tech to catch criminals. Police in Beijing are reportedly testing out new smart glasses with facial-recognition technology. The smart tech, which {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (use) in many checkpoints to find suspects presently.

    Some people will certainly be worried about the possibility of police using facial-recognition tech to flag individuals, {#blank#}2{#/blank#} the chief executive thinks that there is no reason {#blank#}3{#/blank#} the concern, because he trusts the government. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (Interesting), this is not the first time that facial recognition has been used to stop wrongdoers in Beijing. In 2017, we reported on how visitors were having their faces scanned automatically in a certain restroom in {#blank#}5{#/blank#} capita] city to prevent locals from {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (steal) the paper for use at home.

    Authorities in Shenzhen, China, have also set up artificial intelligence-powered CCTV cameras to scan the faces of those {#blank#}7{#/blank#} cross the streets unlawfully and display their {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (identity) on large LED screens for all people to see.

    If that isn't punishment enough, plans are now in place {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (link) the current system with cellular technology, so offenders will also be sent a text message with a fine as soon as they are caught {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (cross) the road against traffic lights.

    I came to England last summer. I{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(be) in England for eleven months. I am going to finish my studies in England soon, and will leave {#blank#}2{#/blank#} China next month.

    At first it was very difficult for me {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(communicate)with other people in English, {#blank#}4{#/blank#}now I can speak English much {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(well), and even understand English television, because I have studied hard and my teachers and classmates have helped me a lot.

    I have lots of English{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(friend) now. Some of {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(they) have even invited me for dinner at their houses {#blank#}8{#/blank#}I have learned a lot about their custom. They are {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (interest) to learn about China and Chinese people. Every time they ask me a lot of questions, I realize how {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (few) I know about my own country.

    We've all heard that breakfast is {#blank#}1{#/blank#} most important meal in the day. It may actually be true. Recently, a study of more than 50,000 adults aged 30 and older{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(find) that people who have breakfast are more likely to lose{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(weigh) than those who don't eat a morning meal. Other studies connect not eating breakfast{#blank#}4{#/blank#}a higher risk of high blood pressure, heart disease and so on.

    However, it's not just when you eat that matters, but{#blank#}5{#/blank#}you eat also matters. {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(keep)fit, you should have a balanced diet with protein, fiber and healthy fats, which is the key to a satisfying{#blank#}7{#/blank#}nutritious breakfast . If you want to keep{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(you) from being hungry later of the day, you'd better eat within 90 minutes after waking up. Also, coffee drunk on an empty stomach is not recommended because it can be{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(harm)to your body.

    There is an old saying that advises "Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince, and dinner like a beggar. It is worth{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(follow).

    Today I will introduce some new teachers in our class. Mrs. Li is my English teacher. My first {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(impress) of her was that she was nervous and shy. But now, I find she's kind and patient, who explains grammar {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(clear). I've always hated making mistakes or {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(pronounce) a word incorrectly when I speak English, but she just smiles, {#blank#}4{#/blank#}makes me feel easy.

    {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(Be) almost sixty, Mrs. Chen is {#blank#}6{#/blank#}experienced physics teacher, but she is very strict. All of us are afraid of her, and no one dare to be late for her lessons. Some of our class don't like her, but most of us really appreciate her because her teaching is so well {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(organise) and clear. I believe I'll do well in the exam with Mrs. Chen {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(teach) me.

    Another teacher I will mention below is Mr. Wu. He teaches us Chinese. He is popular among us because he really enjoys teaching Chinese literature. He becomes so energetic and humorous when he thinks we're getting {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(bore). Even things like compositions and {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (summary) are fun with him. I respect him a lot.
