It's March, 2050. Frank and Mary Smith wake up in their comfortable house in the morning and turn on the bedroom computer to get the latest news. They get used to reading The Times over the years. The only difference is that they changed to electronic newspapers many years ago.

    After breakfast, as they watch the screen, Mary orders the household robot to make coffee for them. Frank is a computer engineer, working for several companies. He goes into the study to take part in a video conference with his partners around the world.

    Mary takes a quick look at the shopping channels at home before beginning the video call to talk to her assistant. She also has a job and she is doing medical researches.

    Frank and Mary have one daughter, Louise, who also has her own work station at home. She goes to school only one day a week, mainly to play with other students. Louise is studying Chinese at present. Chinese has become an important language in the world.

    According to the family doctor, Louise will live to at least 130 years old. Her wish is to work for a few decades(十年)and then spend her time on music and painting.

In a small village in Sichuan, 19-year-old Yin Qiuhua, a girl with Down syndrome（唐氏综合征）, has an amazing skill—Sichuan opera face-changing.

Yin faced many challenges because of Down syndrome. With her 61. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} help, Yin learned how to take care of herself. She started with small tasks such as dressing, washing her face and brushing. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} teeth.

Yin's journey to face-changing performance {#blank#}3{#/blank#} with a chance opportunity. Once Yin took part in a local Sichuan opera performance training. The troupe master discovered that Yin had more passion（激情）for Sichuan opera and a {#blank#}4{#/blank#} understanding of face-changing than many people. So he began to {#blank#}5{#/blank#} teach Yin the art of face-changing and Yin showed an amazing learning ability.

The process of learning face-changing {#blank#}6{#/blank#} hard, but Yin never gave up. She woke up early every day to {#blank#}7{#/blank#} and practice every step of face-changing. Her efforts paid off and within a few {#blank#}8{#/blank#}, she was already able to skillfully transform several different facial masks（面具）.

Yin's first stage performance was a big success. Her skilled movements and rich expressions were as {#blank#}9{#/blank#} as those of Sichuan opera actors. Yin has proven with her actions that in the face of difficulty, as long as there is passion and perseverance（毅力）, one can always {#blank#}10{#/blank#} his own piece of sky.

A young man worked very hard at his lessons. He was too busy to have a rest. At last, he became ill, so he couldn't go to sleep. Every night, when he went to bed, he closed his eyes and tried to sleep. But he always stayed awake and couldn't fall asleep.

After some days, he decided to see a doctor. "I just can't go to sleep at night. What should I do? Could you please help me?"

"I have a suggestion (建议)" said the doctor. "Try counting numbers (数数). By the time you reach one thousand, you'll be asleep. I'm sure of it."

The next day the man returned to the doctor's office. "Well," said the doctor, "how are you today? Did you try my suggestion?"

The man still looked tired. "Yes," he said, "I tried counting one, two, three—up to one thousand. But when I reached five hundred and sixty-nine, I began to feel sleepy. I had to get up and drink some tea so that I could go on counting up to one thousand. But then I still couldn't fall asleep."

Dear Matthew,

I'm really thankful that I have had your class for a year.

When I was ten, I realized that my elder sister was different. We were in the same school. She was so1 that she couldn't even look at people in the eye. So I never told anyone 2 that she was my sister. However, one thing happened just two years ago. It changed3 I thought of her. It also changed me. 

Just two years ago, the school asked everyone to give a show. 4 my sister was unable to work with others, she was the only one left without a group. So she had to do it 5 . "I will sing," my sister told my parents and invited me to watch it. Hearing that, I was 6 . How could my sister, who was so shy, sing in front of the school? I knew very well that if I 7 this to happen, she and I would become a joke. But she insisted (坚持).

The big day came. I sat in the seat telling myself, "It is fine. 8 knows she is your sister." The show started. My sister 9 in front of us. It took her almost a whole minute to tell her name and class! "Why is she taking so long?" People 10 me became impatient. I felt nervous seat, hoping I was somewhere else. 11 , my sister started to sing. She opened her mouth, and I couldn't believe it-she sang so12 ! It won high praise from all the students and teachers. 

At that moment, I realized that I was 13 . How could I doubt my sister's abilities? 14 filled my heart as I listened to the song. Although she knew that I was not 15 to watch her show, she still forgave me. She never took anything that I did to her to heart. It was then that I decided to love her completely.
