Every day has the potential to be a good and, in some cases, a great day for you. Few of us get up in the morning,{#blank#}1{#/blank#} (think) that we want this to be a bad day. Yet in many cases the day turns that way because of a person or an event {#blank#}2{#/blank#}we worry about.

    Think about those small {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(event.) which can throw you off balance and affect your whole day {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(negative). Who stole your day?{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (Be) it your boss, an odd driver on the way to work, or an impolite waiter at lunch that did?

    Every day numerous people or things can prevent us {#blank#}6{#/blank#} having a good day, if we let them. The key is that we should adopt {#blank#}7{#/blank#}positive attitude towards life. We cannot control {#blank#}8{#/blank#} happens to us in many cases,{#blank#}9{#/blank#}we can control how we react to them.

    Lao-tzu, a Chinese philosopher, said, “He who conquers others is strong; he who conquers {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(he) is mighty.

    Li Qiang couldn't believe that he had travelled to the year AD 3008 {#blank#}1{#/blank#} a time capsule. Transported by Wang Ping's parents' company {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (call) "Future Tours", he started his first time trip. On his {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (arrive), the totally new surroundings were difficult for him {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(tolerate). His head ached for lack of fresh air {#blank#}5{#/blank#} he also suffered from "time lag". {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (Lucky), his guide, Wang Ping, who was very understanding, gave him much help in time. He gave Li Qiang some green tablets and a mask, {#blank#}7{#/blank#} helped Li overcome the problems.

    After a short time of feeling unsettled and nervous, Li Qiang was back on {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (he) feet again. Then he followed Wang Ping to collect a hovering carriage that {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (drive) by computer. Soon he could fly as swiftly as Wang Ping. How amazing it was to fly above the ground! Then they arrived at a strange-looking house belonging to Wang Ping's parents. Li Qiang was treated to a delicious dinner and had a wonderful bath there. {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (exhaust), Li Qiang slid into bed and fell fast asleep.

    Smiling

    Smile is a universal language, which is widely used throughout the world. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}, the meaning of a smile in different cultures may be different. Depending on different cultures, smiling can express joy and {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(amuse), but it can also indicate embarrassment. The following examples show this point of view:

    In an attempt to be open and {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(friend), people in the United States smile a lot. Every one smiles at each other and this nonverbal communication shows being polite in the United States. But in China, smiling is not only {#blank#}4{#/blank#}expression of happiness, but also a way to avoid {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(laugh) at. Chinese people like smiling when they are embarrassed in order to avoid embarrassment. Smiling is a kind of good will but not sneer (嘲笑). For example: When a child{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(fall) off from a bike, the adults in China may smile, {#blank#}7{#/blank#}is a kind of gentle encouragement and may not be a kind of impolite laugh.

    Related {#blank#}8{#/blank#}the smile is the laugh. Also, different cultures have different {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(meaning) about laugh. Americans can enjoy a very heartfelt belly (腹部) laugh that comes from the deepest emotions while most Chinese may think {#blank#}10{#/blank#}silly to laugh that way.

    New Year in Chinese eyes is a family reunion. However, in foreigners' eyes, it is not only a kind of homesickness, but a spring migration(迁徙).Every year {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (see) the largest annual mass migration on the planet{#blank#}2{#/blank#} one sixth of the world's population travel home to celebrate {#blank#}3{#/blank#} their families. That is around a billion people {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (make) 3.5 billion journeys in a 40-day period. Meanwhile, over 250 million rail journeys are made across China during the festival.

    Last year, 5.6 million rail tickets{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (sell) in a single day. Every new year in the heartland of industrial China thousands upon thousands of motorcyclists brave the weather and hit the road, determined to make {#blank#}6{#/blank#}home.

    The Chinese New Year {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (celebrate) is also known as the Spring Festival. It lasts 15 days. It is the main holiday of the Chinese calendar. In modem China, {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (search) for work, many people have to move away from home. And they will travel home to be with the loved ones during the Spring Festival. In Chinese New Year, modem and {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (tradition) customs are brought together when the Chinese celebrate the Spring Festival. Nowadays, not only does China have the {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (fast) growing modem cities in the world, but the landscapes are also truly diverse.

    As we all know, we are what we eat. That's because what we eat every day has {#blank#}1{#/blank#}great effect on our health. Therefore, we should make every effort {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (change) our bad eating habits. Although baked or fried foods may be {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(taste), eating too much of them will {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (probable) result in some illnesses. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}, some food that costs us a great deal of money and is not healthy is junk food.

    Compared with people in the West, Chinese people used to eat more grain and vegetables, but {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(little) meat, which is a good eating habit.  However, things are quite different now. With the rapid economic {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(grow) of our country, we now also eat a lot of food that is high in sugar and fat. We {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(run) the risk eating out without considering the balance of our diet.

The food we choose affects our health, so we must keep {#blank#}9{#/blank#} mind that the food we choose should give {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (we) the nutrients we need.
