We may be very {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (please ) with the rapid progress we have made in every field of study , but we have almost done nothing {#blank#}2{#/blank#} ( improve ) our present examination systems which focus  {#blank#}3{#/blank#} testing the students' memory instead of their ability . As soon as a child begins school , he enters a world of examination  {#blank#}4{#/blank#} will decide his future of job . In fact , a good examination system should encourage students to think for {#blank#}5{#/blank#} ( they ) . But the examination system now forces the students to remember {#blank#}6{#/blank#} is taught to get high marks . Thus the students who come out first in the examination are often the {#blank#}7{#/blank#} ( good ) in memorizing . What's worse , such an examination system often  {#blank#}8{#/blank#} ( drive ) teachers to cram all the time and forces them to train students what to do with the ( {#blank#}9{#/blank#} ( come ) examination .

    There must be {#blank#}10{#/blank#} better way to test a student's true ability as well as their knowledge .

    “Cinderella” is the new live-action Disney movie{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(base) on the fairy tale “Cinderella” by Charles Perrault. This film version is not a direct remake of the 1950 Walt Disney movie,{#blank#}2{#/blank#}follows the same storyline. The movie tells the tale of Ella, a girl{#blank#}3{#/blank#}family has experienced unexpected changes. Her father remarries a pretty woman who is cruel. When Ella's father suddenly falls ill and passes away, her stepmother treats her{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(kind) and makes her a servant. But{#blank#}5{#/blank#}invitation to a palace ball offers Ella a chance to change her life forever.

    The newly{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(produce) movie is different enough to breather some freshness into this popular fairy tale, but retains(保留) some elements to make{#blank#}7{#/blank#}interesting.{#blank#}8{#/blank#}makes “Cinderella” so wonderful is that while it maintains the magic and charm of the animated(动画的) film, it also builds on the characters so that the story has more{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(deep) and emotion. In the new film, we get to see Ella{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(treat) badly by her stepmother and stepsisters. It makes the story interesting and the struggle more beautiful.

    I am taught by many teachers in my school. Every subject has a {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (differ) teacher, but I like my math teacher {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(well).Her name is Lakshmi but we usually call her Ma'am. She is our class teacher too.

    Ma'am {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (join) us last term. She is very kind and her way of teaching is so{#blank#}4{#/blank#} (interest) and simple that we all can understand everything {#blank#}5{#/blank#} is being taught and how it can be done. Most {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (important), Ma'am teaches math with lots of patience. If we do not understand a problem, she will spend extra time guiding us until we understand it. And we can go to her at any time during school hours for help.

    She also helps us {#blank#}7{#/blank#}activities at school. When there is some kind of programs, she will be there {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(help) us to get ready for the show. Even when we go on picnics, she takes good care of {#blank#}9{#/blank#}.

    To me, Ma'am is not only {#blank#}10{#/blank#} good teacher, but also our best friend. I love Ma'am and I wish her a happy life.

    Many years ago, everyone {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(eat) all kinds of food, especially fruit, vegetables and fish. At the same they took {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(day) exercise. They were very healthy. All of that made a dark witch{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(anger). So she invented a potion which could let people like to eat unhealthy food.

    One day, a little boy found the bottle with the potion.{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(think) that it was some kind of drink, he drank it. A few days later, a strange feeling in his body let the boy lose his appetite{#blank#}5{#/blank#}vegetables, fruit and fish. All he wanted to do was to eat ice cream, pizza, burgers and candy. And because of another strange feeling all over his body, the boy didn't enjoy exercising,  {#blank#}6{#/blank#}. The boy gave up eatinghealthy food and{#blank#}7{#/blank#} (do) exercise at once. Soon his life got more and more boring. He started feeling ill. {#blank#}8{#/blank#}was important to him except sleeping at home. The boy had a disease, the disease of wasting his life. And the worst thing of all was that the disease was infectious. Luckily, Doctor Healthy discovered if a person lived a healthy and happy life, the potion would be{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(use) in a short time. So{#blank#}10{#/blank#}could the waste-of-life disease be cured? The best remedy was not medicine, but just an effort to eat some fruit, vegetables and fish and to do some exercise.

    In the 17th century, dentists did their best {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (make) false teeth. The problem, however, was not making the teeth, {#blank#}2{#/blank#} was keeping them in place. They had to tie each tooth to the one on either side of it. Only rich people could afford false teeth, {#blank#}3{#/blank#} were usually made of gold or silver. As more and more people wanted new teeth, poor people {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (sell) their teeth to the rich so that they could buy food and clothing. During the next 200 years, many changes were made to false teeth although some of these were not really improvements. Towards the end of the 19th century, for example, cheap elastic teeth were introduced. But they caught fire very {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (easy), and a number of men were badly burned when their teeth caught fire while they were smoking {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (cigarette). Nowadays, false teeth {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (be) so well made and look so real that it is often {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (possible) to tell from a person's appearance whether or not they have them. And in {#blank#}9{#/blank#} near future, very few people will have them by {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (add) certain things to the water we drink, we have been able to keep our teeth so healthy that most people will never need false teeth.

    Recently, an Indian film “Hindi Medium^" has made {#blank#}1{#/blank#} hit! It told a story that a couple spared no effort {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (give) their daughter the {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (good) education and finally she was accepted by the elite of Delhi. Actually, this phenomenon can also be seen in China.

    Today more and more parents adopt the idea of "personal quality education" and commit to encouraging their children to cultivate a variety of interests outside the {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (tradition) classroom activities, like playing the violin, robot programming and so on. But participating {#blank#}5{#/blank#}too many extracurricular activities does deprive the children of their playtime.

    It {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (point) out that more Chinese parents need to realize that the hand-holding mentality is overwhelming their children. They have to loosen their control, give the kids time of {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (they) own, and let them take the initiative. Today parents worry {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (endless) about preparing the kids for the real world, a battlefield where everyone must arm themselves for a fight. But there is no denying {#blank#}9{#/blank#} the best times in life are those {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (steal) moments we spend with others- an idle afternoon with a beloved companion, a cup of tea with an old friend, or a simple game of tag with classmates after school.
