ZHUperb!

    A US-based blog website recently created the word "ZHUperb", which put "Zhu" and "superb" together, to describe the 24-year-old player — Zhu Ting.

    At a young{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(年龄), Zhu is the captain of China women's national volleyball team. But it isn't easy for her to get to where she is today.

    Zhu Ting was born into a poor family in {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(十一月)1994. She got a chance to attend a{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(当地的) sports school when she was 13. Although she got homesick{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(在……期间) the first few months of training, with her father's encouragement, she made{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(进步) week on week. Soon she quickly moved to the national youth team. In 2013, after{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(赢得) the 2013 FIVB U20 World Championship, Zhu was noticed by the famous coach Lang Ping.

    What's more, Zhu {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(认为) to be the national hero after she got gold{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(奖牌) at the 2015 FIVB World Cup, 2016 Rio Olympic Games and 2018 FIVB Women's Club World Championship.

    With her{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(优秀的；极好的) performance in the past three years, the 24-year-old is getting more popular off the court.

    Zhu Ting believes "Hard work and talent are equally important. I'll move{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(向前) step by step. I'll try my best to fight until the last minute."

    Jim Green is from London. He is now in Beijing. He visited many interesting places in Beijing, but he was too busy to visit other parts of China before. He had a {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(旅行) to Mount Emei in Sichuan with his {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(同学) last week.

    Jim thinks that travelling by train is the best {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(选择). It doesn't{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(花费) much and it is far more {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(令人愉快的) than taking a plane. They had a wonderful train ride to Chengdu before they went on to Mount Emei by bus.

    The train was quite nice and tidy, and it wasn't {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(拥挤的) in their sleeping car.

    They could stand up and walk {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(到处). It was a long way, but {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(没人) of them felt tired. They kept watching the beautiful things through the window. They talked, laughed and played cards. The conductor(列车员) kept coming to give them hot water and selling them newspapers. People {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(附近) talked with each other. A young man tried to speak with him in English. Jim thought the train was like a big moving party. He went to sleep late. He enjoyed listening to the sound of the running train and then fell{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(睡着的).

— Oh, it's a s{#blank#}1{#/blank#}. I can't tell you.
