Four women lived in the same building and all of them were going to a party. They were 1about what dresses they would wear. They final decided to choose a dress that matched the hair colour of their own 2.

    The first woman said, "I will go in red 3 my husband coloured his hair red."

    4 this, the second woman said, "Well, I will5 black because the colour of my husband's hair is black."

    The third woman also had a(n) 6, "Yes, then I would love to go in a 7 dress because my husband has yellow and blonde(金色的)hair!"

    They all turned to the 8 woman, but she stayed quiet. So they asked her 9 she would wear." I am thinking very hard, but I can't 10 a right dress. It seems that I can't wear any dress. I use my husband is bald(秃头的)!" said the woman.

    Do you want to be a TV news reporter? People often ask me 1 I love my job. Well, it's very2. I'm the first to know about important news stories. I3around the world and I talk to people. I find out what is happening4different places. I talk to some important and famous people. I've talked to people in the government, 5 famous sportsmen and sportswoman and film stars. I ask people to tell me about6lives. I want to know how they feel.

    A lot of people want to work in TV news, so you have to be energetic and creative. You have to show that you can do it. You must learn how to use a video camera,7 reports, and speak to the camera. What's the best way to learn? Your school or college TV station is a good place to start, but you have to get a job!

    Most people8with an unpaid job, so they can learn. The best place to learn is at a small station. There aren't many people, and as a result, you get more9. I had an unpaid job at a small station, and one night, when10was ill, I read the news on air. I did well, and as a result, I got my first paid job!

It was the last day of school and I planned to travel to my 1  home town. I hadn't seen him for years and this was a good 2  to meet him again.

I was busy at school 3  it was rather late when I came back home. It was already o'clock at night. 4  was running out. After a hurried meal, I left. 5  , I found a taxi very soon. Asking the driver to drive me 6  to the station, I relaxed for a while, imagining what my friend 7 now. I was soon at the station and was sure that I would be able to 8 the train. However, I fell on the way and lost some time. To my complete 9  , when I reached the platform, I saw that the train had just left! It was the last train, so I had to 10  home. How terrible my day was! I even wanted to cry.

My mother was glad to see me back as she had a bad feeling about my 11  . But I was unhappy. I tried to relax 12  and went to bed, but I had a bad night's sleep. The next morning I was very tired. As I was having some bread 13  breakfast, the newspaper arrived. I read over the pages and was shocked to 14  that the train I missed had an accident. How 15  I was that I missed the train!

Nowadays, more and more people begin to look for fun online. Watching livestreaming (直播的) shows has become part of their lives. At the same time, traditional culture has found a bigger stage online. Many traditional artists are starting to livestream on Douyin and Bilibili. Some of them sing Peking Opera, some show their folk handcrafts (手工艺), while others perform Chinese classical music. A growing number of people are becoming interested in traditional culture because of livestreaming. 

Li Jun is a Peking Opera performer with the Shanghai Jingju Theater Company. After the outbreak(退休), the 59-year-old man took up his smartphone and started livestreaming. Unlike performing on a formal stage, Li uses ordinary places as his stage, including his backyard and study room. Apart from singing, Li also teaches audience about Peking Opera. People can ask him questions and get answers directly. 

"Livestreaming has brought this elegant (高雅的) art down to earth. " one viewer said. "It gives young people an easier access to this traditional art and learn more about it. " Li has more than 6, 000 fans on Douyin, while one of his videos got 42, 000 views on Bilibili. 

On March 26th, 2020, Bilibili livestreamed a Huafu show on the third China Huafu Day (中国华服日). Performers presented clothes in traditional Chinese styles, including those from Wei, Tang and Ming dynasties. During the show, viewers not only enjoyed looking at the clothes, but also watched how performers used ancient styles of make-up. 

As Guangming Daily noted, livestreaming has come to a new stage through which traditional culture can be kept alive.

My name is Sally. I am a junior high school student from Guangdong. My school life is very busy but exciting. I have eight lessons a day. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} But my favourite subject is labour(劳动). I have two labour classes every week. I like labour classes because I can learn much from them.

In June 2024, some junior high school students in Guangzhou visited the Guangdong Museum. As for my school, we also go out of the classroom to learn new things. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}It is usually from 17th to 22nd in September. 

{#blank#}3{#/blank#} We can plant some trees and flowers. We clean our school. We also learn to cook. Now I can cook tomato and egg noodles. It's easy. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} And I can cook the noodles by myself when my parents are not at home.

Sometimes we also go to the farm and help farmers. 

We can pick some fruit and vegetables. We learn that the work on the farm is difficult. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}

Having labour classes makes us learn something new. I love labour classes so much.

I used to hate running. At secondary school I found it very tired to run around the sports field and I was always one of the 1 students to cross the finish line. Then, in 2020, my friend asked me to run with him. My 2 was, " No way!I hate running".

 During the weekend I thought about his question. " Why do I hate running?" I thought, In the end I decided to 3 it. I told my friend I would like to run with him. He was 4 to hear that. He advised me to look for a running program on the Internet to 5 me learn how to run. There were lots of running programs on the Internet. I 6 a 14- week running program. I would attend a match when I finished the program. I had to run three times a week. At first, I ran for short periods of 7 and had long breaks. Then 8 the weeks went on, I had to run far longer periods of time and the breaks got 9 . I enjoyed following the running program each week. Now I can run for 10 than 30 minutes each time!I went from 11 running to loving running.

 On the day of the 12 I was both excited and nervous. 13 was finally time to put my new skills into practice. My friends and family came to support me. It was lovely to have them there. With their support and my training. I managed to finish the 10000- metre run in 72 minutes. I was very 14 of that.

 From this experience I 15 it was a good idea to try something before saying I hated it! Because it turned out that I really enjoyed running.
