{#blank#}1{#/blank#} he nor I {#blank#}2{#/blank#}been to the England before.

    Nobody wants to be aged, but{#blank#}1{#/blank#}it comes to visiting cities, most of us want to visit the world's oldest cities. Luoyang is one of the oldest and most {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(attract) cities in the world that I'd like to recommend to you.

    Luoyang stands out{#blank#}3{#/blank#}The oldest continually inhabited (持续居住的) city in Asia. The city is considered to be{#blank#}4{#/blank#}birthplace of Chinese culture and history as well as being one of the Seven Ancient Capitals of China. There  {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (be) no other city in China that has seen so many{#blank#}6{#/blank#}dynasty) like Luoyang.

    With such a long and exciting history, Luoyang has really a lot{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(offer). The longmen Grottoes(龙门石窟), which{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(include) in the world Heritage List since 2000, and many historic Buddhist temples{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(constant) attract tourist from all over the world. Luoyang is also famous for the White Horse Temple, the earliest Buddhist temple{#blank#}10{#/blank#}build) in China. Are you anxious to visit the city?

    I'm not sure {#blank#}1{#/blank#} is more frightened, me or the female gorilla(大猩猩）that suddenly appears out of nowhere. I'm walking on a path in the forest in the Central African Republic. Unexpectedly, I'm face-to-face with the gorilla, who begins screaming at {#blank#}2{#/blank#} top of her lungs. That makes her baby scream, and then a 400-pound male appears. He screams the {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(loud)of all. The noise shakes the trees as the male beats his chest and charges toward me. I quickly lower myself, ducking my head to avoid {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(look) directly into his eyes so he doesn't feel{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(challenge).

My name is Mireya Mayor. I'm a {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(science)who studies animals such as apes and monkeys. I was searching {#blank#}7{#/blank#} these three western lowland gorillas I'd been observing. No one had seen them for hours, and my colleagues and I were worried.

    When the gorillas and I frightened each other, I was just glad to find {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(they) alive. True to a gorilla's unaggressive nature, the huge animal {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(mean)me no real harm. He was just saying: "I'm king of this forest, and here is your reminder!" Once his message was delivered, he allowed me {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (stay)and watch.

    One morning, I was waiting at the bus stop, worried about {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (be) late for school. There were many people waiting at the bus stop, {#blank#}2{#/blank#} some of them looked very anxious and {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(disappoint). When the bus finally came, we all hurried on board. I got a place next {#blank#}4{#/blank#} the window, so I had a good view of the sidewalk. A boy on a bike {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (catch) my attention. He was riding beside the bus and waving his arms. I heard a passenger behind me shouting to the driver, but he refused {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(stop) until we reached the next stop. Still, the boy kept {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (ride). He was carrying something over his shoulder and shouting. Finally, when we came to the next stop, the boy ran up the door of the bus. I heard an excited conversation. Then the driver stood up and asked, “{#blank#}8{#/blank#} anyone lose a suitcase at the last stop?” A woman on the bus shouted, “Oh, dear! It's {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(I)”. She pushed her way to the driver and took the suitcase thankfully. Five others on the bus began talking about what the boy had done and the crowd of strangers {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(sudden) became friendly to one another.

    The moment I was diagnosed with cancer, I decided that I would not let this "beast" win easily. I had no idea {#blank#}1{#/blank#} my treatment would be like, and I surely didn't think social media would be a way for me to conquer this "beast". However, by sharing{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(feel) on the Internet, I am able to remind myself, and my viewers, that everything is going to be okay. Their words are a big part of what helped me stay{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(hope). Besides, I have made several "cancer friends" so far, and we're determined to fight this battle together.
