China is a big old country and it has a history of more than five thousand years. We are proud of{#blank#}1{#/blank#} (it) culture and part of the culture even influences the world {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (great), for example, the thought of Confucius. As Chinese economy develops very fast and plays {#blank#}3{#/blank#} important role in the world, more and more {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (foreign) learn Mandarin (普通话) in Confucius institutions. The Chinese traditional culture can be tested by the time. It unites the whole nation and no matter {#blank#}5{#/blank#} kind of disaster comes, we will fight together for the country's future. Today, many young people lose {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (faithful) in traditional culture and they are crazy {#blank#}7{#/blank#} the western culture. They follow the western fashion, {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (think) we are the old style. But someday, they {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (realize) they are wrong {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (abandon) traditional culture.

    What might life be like if you looked very different from others? Most of us are lucky to be born with "normal" faces.{#blank#}1{#/blank#}, the movie Wonder shows us that there is no such thing as being normal and that beauty is more than skin-deep.

    {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (base) on a bestselling novel, the movie is about a boy named Auggie. He has a facial deformity (畸形) and has spent most of his life being home schooled. But as he enters middle school, his parents decide to send him to a private school. There, Auggie must deal with judgmental classmates and learn to accept{#blank#}3{#/blank#} (he) as he is.

    In the US, most kids{#blank#}4{#/blank#} (teach) that it is OK to be different. Most people in the US celebrate being unique. But some kids have difficulty{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (accept) uniqueness. It's easy to pick on someone who's different, {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(especial) if you have your own problems to deal with. This is another{#blank#}7{#/blank#} (center) theme from the movie—even the kids {#blank#}8{#/blank#}pick on Auggie have their own personal struggles.

    As Auggie's classmates get to know him better, they come to find that he's a nice kid {#blank#}9{#/blank#}a great sense of humor. They start to change their attitude toward him. In real life, it may take longer to see such changes happen. But if we give people {#blank#}10{#/blank#}chance, their hearts and minds may change in the end.

    Parkour (跑酷) is a sport which trains people to deal with any physical obstacles in their path. It is not a competition but a physical training. A person joining in parkour is called traceur. Traceurs run along a path and use only their bodies to deal with obstacles in the most efficient way. Parkour pays more attention to efficiency, {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(make) it different from the similar practice of free running. Parkour {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(common) includes running, jumping, climbing, rolling and other similar types of physical movements. Many teenagers think that parkour is quite{#blank#}3{#/blank#}cool sport. They have great interest in it.

    The {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(invent) of parkour can't {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(give) to one person because many people have worked on it. A french officer developed the earlier form of parkour. The term “parkour” was first introduced by David Belle and Sebastiar Foucan in the early 1980s. {#blank#}6{#/blank#}that time, they were two teenagers. This sport{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(become) more popular in the 1990s when many films were made on it.

    {#blank#}8{#/blank#}makes parkour different from other sports is its power to bring people together. It allows traceurs to forget the{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(society) and other problems, and makes a large group work and grow together instead of competing with each other. People can benefit from parkour as it can make them stronger. Still, it also influences one's thought process by improving self-confidence and critical-thinking skills. In this way, parkour allows one to deal with {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(difficulty) in daily life if he or she deals with them through parkour.

After traveling through space for seven months, China's Tianwen-1 probe has reached Mars and {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(success) entered its orbit on Wednesday — bringing it one step {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (close) to landing on the surface.

Tianwen-1, {#blank#}3{#/blank#}name means "Quest for Heavenly Truth", consists of an orbiter, lander and a six-wheeled rover. The spacecraft {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (launch) last July along with two other international Mars missions, is scheduled to land on the planet's surface in May or June. It is tasked with gathering information about Mars' geological structure, atmosphere, environment and soil, as well as {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (search) for signs of water.

With Tianwen-1, China is the first nation {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (attempt) to send both an orbiter and a rover on its first homegrown Mars mission. {#blank#}7{#/blank#} contrast, NASA sent multiple orbiters to Mars before ever attempting a landing, since pulling off the landing is {#blank#}8{#/blank#}far more difficult task.

The Chinese rover {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(expect) to function for about three months on the planet. It marks a milestone for China's deep-space {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (explore) of Mars, according to the CNSA. China is also planning to launch a permanent space station by 2022, and is looking at sending astronauts to the moon-possibly in the 2030s.
