Recently a really strange thing happened in a middle school in China's Hubei Province. Over 600 students there took part in a “caring for an egg like a baby”{#blank#}1{#/blank#} (active) in which they were asked to keep an egg close at hand for a month{#blank#}2{#/blank#}breaking it.

    "It's hard for parents to bring up their children{#blank#}3{#/blank#}many students just ignore it,” said Liu Kang, the school's director. "They should{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(teach) to be grateful to their parents, who have given them life but ask for nothing in return.”

    Li Ming is one of the students. His egg didn't break during the month, but he felt{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(exhaust). "I now realize that my parents have had great difficulty{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(bring) me up. I'll do all I can to make their life easier and more{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(comfort) when I grow up.” promised the 13-year-old boy.{#blank#}8{#/blank#} (luck), about 10 students broke their eggs. Yan Yueming broke his egg after just five days, which made him frustrated. He said, "I can't imagine{#blank#}9{#/blank#}sad my parents would be if there was something wrong with me, their 'egg'!" It is time I{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(do) something in return for their love.” said Yan.

    A toy animal might not matter much to the average person, but for a child, it could mean the world. When 10-year-old Leon Ashworth's mom couldn't afford {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(buy) him a toy panda he badly wanted, he wrote a{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(pity)note on the toy's box begging{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(shopper) not to buy it until his mom could. What happened next {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(be)so heartwarming, it would melt you.

    The boy, Leon Ashworth {#blank#}5{#/blank#}lives in Liverpool, England with his mom, first saw his beloved 'Panda' at an Asda supermarket, the British equivalent of Wal-Mart. Though he was willing to wait with{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(patient) until his mom {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(pay) on June 15th to take the lovely panda home, the store's staff decided to do something extremely thoughtful after they noticed Leon's scribbled letter. They decided to buy it for him.

    In search {#blank#}8{#/blank#} the young author, whom they didn't know at the time, they posted the note on Facebook and eventually attracted the attention of Debbie Ashworth, who{#blank#}9{#/blank#} (immediate) recognized her son's handwriting. The Asda crew invited the mom and her son back to the store, and had a wonderful surprise waiting for them. “This is{#blank#}10{#/blank#}best day of my life.” Leon remarked to his mom.

    Nowadays, it is common that more and more high school students open their own micro blogs on the Internet. For one thing, it can provide a colorful platform to show their talent. For{#blank#}1{#/blank#},it is a useful way to release their{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(press). And all these make it more and more popular with high school students.{#blank#}3{#/blank#}many parents and teachers hold a different view. They think that managing one's micro blog will take a lot of time and energy，{#blank#}4{#/blank#}should be used to study.

    In my view, I am greatly in favor{#blank#}5{#/blank#}this activity. Today the Internet is playing{#blank#}6{#/blank#}important and essential role in our life .Therefore, as high school students of the Information Age, we need to learn to make use of this{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(mean) tool to communicate and display ourselves. What's more, opening and organizing micro blogs need various abilities such as writing, designing, being skillful at computer and so on. Only if we master those abilities can we make a successful micro blog. As a result, we improve ourselves while{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(organize) our micro blogs .

    In fact, micro blog{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(oneself) is of little harm. It is your attitude towards it{#blank#}10{#/blank#}matters. We should take the advantages and avoid some bad effects.

    “Traveling to China seems like traveling to another world. Its many famous scenic attractions impressed me {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (great),”an American said. The following is {#blank#}2{#/blank#} he wrote on his website.

    My friends and I had a family visit in Xi'an,{#blank#}3{#/blank#} old city with a long history in China. The hosts were retired or stayed at home without a job, and they were friendly to {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (visit) from different countries coming their homes.

    We {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(taste) the true home-cooked dishes in the home of the family that we visited. For in-homing dinner, the host would prepare a list of menus in advance (提前). Our tour guide asked {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (we) for advice about the food, so the host would try to cook what we wanted {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (eat) at his home. We just enjoyed the locally cooked dishes. It was quite a different and exciting experience.

    Many foreigners enjoy {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (learn) how to make Chinese dumplings. We were also {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (offer) a general cooking class in the local family. The host taught us to make dumplings step by step with lots of patience. And we didn't need to pay any money {#blank#}10{#/blank#}this. Travel China Guide offers this kind of service free of charge.

    The family visit in Xi'an was a good chance for us to get to know Chinese people's daily life.

    When someone has{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(deep)hurt you, it can be very difficult to let go of your anger. But forgiveness is possible and it can be surprisingly {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(benefit) to your physical and mental health. So far, studies {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(show)that people who forgive can have more energy, better appetite and better sleep. "People who forgive show {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(little)anger and more hopefulness, "says Dr Frederic Luskin, who wrote the book Forgive for Good. "So it can help reduce the tiredness out of the immune system and allow people {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(feel) more energetic. "

    So when someone has hurt you, cool down first. Take a couple of breaths and think of something {#blank#}6{#/blank#}gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, or someone you love. Don't wait for an {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(apologize). "Many times the person who hurt you may never think of apologizing," says Dr Luskin. "They may have wanted to hurt you or they just don't see things in the same way. So if you wait for people to say sorry, you could be waiting for a very long time."

    Next keep {#blank#}8{#/blank#}mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(accept) the action of the person who {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(upset) you. Instead, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you. Finally, try to see things from the other person's perspective. You may realize that he or she was acting out of ignorance. To gain perspective, you may want to write a letter to yourself from that person's point of view.
