    On Aug 13，four Chinese irrigation sites won global {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (recognize)and were added to the 2018 list of Heritage Irrigation Structures， among {#blank#}2{#/blank#} Dujiangyan is the oldest and only surviving damless irrigation system in the world.

    Built over 2，000 years ago in {#blank#}3{#/blank#} is now Sichuan Province in Southwest China， this amazing engineering achievement is still playing a crucial role in irrigating farms and providing water resources for more than 50 cities in the province.

    In ancient times，the region in which Dujiangyan now stands {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (threaten)by frequent flooding from the Minjiang River. Li Bing，a local official of Sichuan Province at that time，together with his son，decided to construct an irrigation system on the Minjiang River {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (prevent)flooding. After many studies，they found the {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (simple)solution was to build a dam，but this would have ruined the Minjiang River. So instead Li designed a series of {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (channel)built at different levels along Mount Yulei that would take away the floodwater while leaving the river flowing {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (natural).Better still， the extra water could be directed to the dry Chengdu Plain，{#blank#}9{#/blank#} (make)it suitable for farming.

    Ever since the great Dujiangyan Irrigation System was completed， the Chengdu Plain has been free {#blank#}10{#/blank#} flooding and the people there have been living peacefully.

    Everyone needs to know how to prevent a fire. It is also important to know what to do when it {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (break) out.

    Every year, over 11, 000 people {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (kill) or injured in house fires. These fires could have been avoided. Smokers who are {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (care) cause about 200 deaths and over 6, 000 fires. More than of those {#blank#}4{#/blank#} die in fires are poisoned or harmed by smoke.

    If fire happens, do not attempt to fight the fire unless it is small. Try putting out a small fire with water. If {#blank#}5{#/blank#} fire has spread or if the flames are more than 20 inches high, shut the door on it. Warn everyone else in the building and tell them to get out. You should leave and dial 911 for the fire department.

    Before {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (go) into a room, check the door. If the handle or the door is hot, do not open it! Instead, put clothing or a wet towel at the bottom of it to keep smoke out. If the door is not hot, open it {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (slow). If there is a rush of smoke heat, close it again and shout to warn {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (other) inside.

    Now open the window and shout "Fire!". See whether you can drop safely to the ground. Use this {#blank#}9{#/blank#} your escape course if you can. If you are not on ground level, break your fall by pushing a mat out first. Lower yourself at arm's {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (long) before dropping. Once outside, stay out outside and make sure the fire department is called.

    Valentine's Day is known as a day of love and romance on February 14th every year.

    There are a few different versions of its origin and history, one of which dates back {#blank#}1{#/blank#} an ancient Roman festival, Lupercalia, {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (celebrate) on February 15th. On this day, young single women would place {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (they) names in a huge container and young bachelors of the town would come and draw a name from it. The young man and the woman, {#blank#}4{#/blank#} name was picked would become partners for the {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (follow) years. Many of these couples would eventually get {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(marry). It {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (believe) that the month of February is perfect for romance.

    Valentine's Day was originally celebrated in Europe, but in recent years it is also celebrated in China, {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (especial) among young people. Interestingly, China has its own Valentine's Day, Qixi Festival, on the 7th day of the 7th month of our lunar calendar. It is in memory of a day on which the legendary cow-herder and weaving-maid {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (allow) to be together, after being separated by the Milky Way for a whole year. What {#blank#}10{#/blank#} interesting story!
