What was supposed to be {#blank#}1{#/blank#} fun climb became a test of friendship for two young people from Canada last Saturday. Jeremy Savage and Ian Marshall, both {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(age) 17, went camping with their parents for the weekend. On Saturday morning, they decided to climb the mountain by themselves while their parents relaxed at the campsite. After three hours, they reached the top {#blank#}3{#/blank#} no problems.

    However, trouble began when they started the climb down the mountain. On one very {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (danger) part of the path, Ian fell three meters off the side of the path. Jeremy was able to climb down to where Ian was. Ian was  {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (bad) injured and could not move. They had to wait and {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (hope) that someone would come and help them. As the evening grew {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (dark), Ian told Jeremy to leave him and go back to their parents, but he still did not leave. Jeremy thought {#blank#}8{#/blank#} was not safe for Ian to be alone. The night was cold and windy, and Jeremy used his jacket and extra shirt to keep Ian warm.

    At sunrise, Jeremy decided that the only way  {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (help) his friend was to carry him. So they started the long climb back to their parents. Finally, after four hours, they arrived at the campsite {#blank#}10{#/blank#} their parents were waiting, “I'll always remember what Jeremy did for me.” said Ian. “He saved my life.”

    My name is Wang Kun. Since middle school, my sister and I {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (dream) about taking a great bike trip. After graduating {#blank#}2{#/blank#} college, we finally got the chance to do it. It was my sister, Wang Wei,{#blank#}3{#/blank#} first had the idea to cycle along the Mekong River from where it begins to where it ends. Our cousins live near the Lancang River which {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(call) the Mekong River in other countries. My sister soon got {#blank#}5{#/blank#} interested in {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(cycle) too. Then she began to organize the trip and insisted that we start from the source of the river in Qinghai province {#blank#}7{#/blank#} the air is hard to breathe. I doubted her decision but she gave me a {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(determine) look. I know her {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(good). Once she has made up her mind, nothing can change it. Finally, I gave {#blank#}10{#/blank#}to her.

    We think that life in Chinese high school is an adventure in which we have to survive mountains of homework and exams. Yet would it be {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (surprise) if I tell you that high school life in the US is almost as stressful and demanding as it is in China?

    In US high school, everything {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (record) and graded, including your grades on quizzes, tests and final examinations. Failing {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (turn) in your homework on time will directly affect your grade for a certain course. Perhaps contrary to {#blank#}4{#/blank#} we used to think of the US high school students, they pay great attention to their academic performance to try to get into distinguished university.{#blank#}5{#/blank#} they'll be disappointed after graduation from high school.

    Like university students, US high school students have the {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (free) to choose the courses that most interest {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (they). Even a 9th-grader can sit {#blank#}8{#/blank#} the same classroom as 12th-graders. But this also means he or she has to work very hard, because the teacher will not treat him or her {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (difference) just because he or she is a few years {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (young).

    How do learning habits influence learning results？It's useful and necessary to discuss learning habits. There is a famous {#blank#}1{#/blank#} （say）"Good habits lead to good endings", which shows the importance of habits.

"An apple a day keeps the doctor away. "also {#blank#}2{#/blank#} （show） a healthy everyday habit helps to build up our body. Thus, good learning habits can help us gain great learning results, high scores and abundant knowledge {#blank#}3{#/blank#} （include）. At first, learning habits form our ways of thinking and attitude {#blank#}4{#/blank#} the content of our learning. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} （obvious）, a good habit can help us to speed up to reach our destinations. As we can see, developing a good habit is so important that I would like to introduce one kind of good learning habits — keeping {#blank#}6{#/blank#} learning diary every day. We can start the habit by {#blank#}7{#/blank#} （write）a learning summary and remember to record something impressive and meaningful. Keep it in mind, {#blank#}8{#/blank#}gradually we can gain this good learning habit and benefit from it.

    What's {#blank#}9{#/blank#} （much）, I find out that I still have some bad learning habits {#blank#}10{#/blank#} well. I can only concentrate on reading for a short time, and I will conquer this problem by spending more efforts on concentration practice.

    I believe that through my efforts, I can gain good learning results by having good habits.

    The works Miyazaki(宫崎骏)has created have been called Japan's answer to Disney movies.

    Thought by many to be one of the world's greatest living animators (动画师), Miyazaki, 76,announced his retirement in September 2014. But it was in July 2017 {#blank#}1{#/blank#} he confirmed he would return to turn his short film Boro the Caterpillar into a feature, which is expected to be released in 2019, just before Tokyo hosts the 2020 Olympic Games. It was {#blank#}2{#/blank#}seventh time that he {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (announce) his return. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (compare) with Disney movie, Miyazaki's works have their own style. For instance, his works have clear distinctions between {#blank#}5{#/blank#} male and female characters can achieve and how they should look. According to The Atlantic, there are imaginary kingdoms and magical creatures in his movies. Meanwhile Miyazaki {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (great) concerns social issues in real life. Earth's fragility is one thing that he often features. He frequently focuses {#blank#}7{#/blank#}development and pollution. For example, in Princess Mononoke audiences{#blank#}8{#/blank#} (show) that villagers cut down forests to provide fuel for {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (they). The movie ends with a big battle between mankind and nature that hurts the planet seriously.

    What issues will he cover in his next? We'll have to wait until 2019 {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(find) out.
