    "It's hard for parents to bring up their children  many students just ignore it," said Liu Kang, the school's director. "They should  (teach) to be grateful to their parents, who have given them life but ask for nothing in return."

    If you read a newspaper or listen to a newscast recently, you may hear or read a strange word, “staycation”. Staycation is {#blank#}1{#/blank#} new word the American press is using {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (describe) vacation very close to your own home, {#blank#}3{#/blank#} simply staying at home during your vacation. It is a combination (合成) of the words “stay” and “vacation”.
    According to many news reports, these staycations are very popular among American families this year. Why? The high price of gasoline for cars and airplanes has made it very costly for Americans to travel {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (compare) to past years. When you combine this with the weak American dollar, it all adds up to people deciding to stay close to home {#blank#}5{#/blank#} their traditional summer vacations. Without doubt, some places are more {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (interest) to “stay at home” than others. And if you live in a very small town, well, you may just want to skip your vacation and save your time up to next year.
    Everything is increasingly {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (expense) nowadays, and let's face it—a vacation just may not be in your plan this year. You don't have to give up family fun just because you can't get away; instead, follow my tips for an {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (economy) staycation filled with old favorites and new adventures! Staycations have {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(achieve) high popularity in modern society in which {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (employ) levels and gas prices are high.

The plane was starting to roll forward on the runway when they {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (see) the text: Their grandson was in special care with {#blank#}3{#/blank#} serious illness. If they didn't get back soon, they might miss their chance to say goodbye.

The couple got the attention of the Etihad Airways crew,{#blank#}4{#/blank#}rushed to tell the pilot. Instead of {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (ignore) their beg to stay on schedule, the kindhearted pilot turned the plane back around to the Manchester Airport gate.

    A hear-warming {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (arrange) was made. From there, the rest of the staff jumped in to get {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (they) home as fast as possible. Some collected their bags and helped the couple through the airport, while others brought their car to arrivals so the grandparents could head straight home. The airline said they could use their tickets another time.

    “I've been in the travel business for {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (decade) and never heard of this happening,” the couple's travel agent, Becky Stephenson, told the BBC. They were aware {#blank#}9{#/blank#} the importance of saying goodbye for the couple, so they offered to help.
