He thought he couldn't be successful and achieve {#blank#}3{#/blank#}dream. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}, he only liked to listen to Yang' s class and never  {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(absence). He put a note and showed his value to Yang. One day, Yang told him the {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(different) between different potatoes. So this student understood the life and became successful.

    From this passage, I think, in our lives, we shouldn't move back when we have trouble with our study or work. {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (contrary), we must try hard to make our lives better and be {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(value) one in these common people. If we do, like this, we will show our value by ourselves and be found by top people. So we may change our destiny and become {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(success)

    All in all, I hope every one can show their value lively and {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(life)a successful life. Please remember：Be a potato, but be the best!

    At first my new {#blank#}1{#/blank#} were difficult to tolerate. The air seemed thin, as though  its combination of gases had little oxygen left.  Hit by a {#blank#}2{#/blank#} of fresh air, my head ached. Just as I tried to make the necessary {#blank#}3{#/blank#} to this new situation ,Wang ping handed a mask to me and I felt better in {#blank#}4{#/blank#} time. Soon I was {#blank#}5{#/blank#} on my feet again and following him to collect a hovering carriage driven by computer. Wang Ping fastened my safety belt and showed me how to use it. Soon I could fly as fast as him. However, I lost {#blank#}6{#/blank#} of him when we reached what looked like a large market because of too many carriage flying in all directions.

    During the Renaissance, new ideas and values gradually {#blank#}7{#/blank#} those held in the Middle Ages. People began to {#blank#}8{#/blank#} less on religious themes and adopt a more humanistic attitude to life. … Rich people wanted to {#blank#}9{#/blank#} their own paintings, so they could {#blank#}10{#/blank#} their superb palaces and great houses.

    At only 12, Milton Hershey stopped {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (attend) school and began to work for a candy maker in Lancaster. There, he learned to mix sugar and water to make candy products,{#blank#}2{#/blank#} he moved to Philadelphia to set up a candy store. However, his store was a complete {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (fail). So he {#blank#}4{#/blank#} to Lancaster and began making caramels (焦糖) in his own way — with fresh milk and he made it.

Then in 1893 he bought the chocolate-making machines made by Germany. He was developing a(an){#blank#}5{#/blank#} (usual) plan — to build a large chocolate factory and a town to support it. So soon he bought a town {#blank#}6{#/blank#} he set up his chocolate factory in the following year. The factory provided free accommodation and all his workers lived in it. He found a way to make large amounts of milk chocolate. The Hershey Candy Company was on its way to success.

    Today, in the town of Hersey, the streetlights {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (shape) like the candy. The air often smells {#blank#}8{#/blank#} chocolate. At Hershey's Chocolate World, visitors can learn {#blank#}9{#/blank#} chocolate is made. This special town calls {#blank#}10{#/blank#}  “The Sweetest Place on Earth.”

    Many teachers believe that hands－on experience is the {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(good) way to learn. A group of students in the United States are putting that belief to the test. They {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (success) designed and built a robot for discovering unexplored mines {#blank#}3{#/blank#} the bottom of the sea. Students made the robot {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(answer) a challenge from the U．S. Department of Defense.

    The students recently tested the underwater vehicle {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(call) PerseusⅡin a 95－meter－long tank of water at the Stevens Institute of Technology.

    The robot costs about $15,000 to build. The students use a video game control to direct {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(it) movements in the tank. What's more, devices known as Japters {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (able) the robot to go up, down and toward its target in the water. Video cameras on the robot send images back to a computer through a 13－meter－long cable. Perseus Ⅱ,{#blank#}8{#/blank#}the students worked up to 20 hours a week to design and build, also has {#blank#}9{#/blank#} set of lasers (激光), which are used to measure the size of an object.

    DeLorme supervised the project from {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(begin) to end. He says the specialized requirements of robots were demanding.

    There was a state {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(call) Zhou in the Chinese history. One day, the king of Zhou asked his officials for advice on {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (deal) with the prisoners of war. An official said, “If you love someone, you{#blank#}3{#/blank#} (suppose) to love even the crows on the roof of his house. The prisoners of war are enemies fighting against us. In my opinion, we'd better{#blank#}4{#/blank#} (kill) them all.”

    But the king didn't agree with him. “I think we should treat the prisoner of war{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (different) by differing them into those who are guilty and those who are not. They guilty ones will be sentenced{#blank#}6{#/blank#} death in order to avoid future disasters.”

    Then another one said, “Your majesty, I think all the prisoners should be set free and sent back home to work in the fields and support themselves by their own labor.{#blank#}7{#/blank#}, you should keep strictly the rules for reward and {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (punish). The people are sure to believe in you{#blank#}9{#/blank#} you govern our country be morals and laws.”

    The king thought the official's proposal was quite reasonable so be accepted and followed it. As {#blank#}10{#/blank#} result, the domestic situation soon settled down and gradually the country became stronger.

    Yu Rong, a Chinese artist, thinks of a new way to introduce {#blank#}1{#/blank#} ancient story of Hua Mulan in her picture book. In the book, I Am Hua Mulan, she tells the story by{#blank#}2{#/blank#}（combine） paper﹣cutting with international artistic styles. She places Shaanxi paper﹣cuts over western﹣style pencil sketches（素描）{#blank#}3{#/blank#}（create） a typical presentation of Chinese elements （元素）,which turns out to be a {#blank#}4{#/blank#}（success） and impressive breakthrough.

    Hua Mulan,{#blank#}5{#/blank#} story has been told by generations in China, is a fighter from the Northern Wei Dynasty（386﹣534）. As a devoted daughter, she dressed herself as a man to serve in the army{#blank#}6{#/blank#}place of her father. Mulan's characteristics, such as courage, kindness and a disinterested attitude toward fame and fortune, made{#blank#}7{#/blank#} （she） one of the most respected historical Chinese heroines. Mulan's story has been adapted{#blank#}8{#/blank#}（frequent） in modern media, including TV shows, video games and literature. For example, in 1998, Disney produced a film named Mulan, which {#blank#}9{#/blank#}（consider） a great success by critics and the public.

    To better tell the story, Yu Rong takes inspiration from her several {#blank#}10{#/blank#}（visit） to sites of ancient battles and Henan province's Yuju Opera. After years of preparation she finally makes this extraordinary work.
