Zhu De was born {#blank#}1{#/blank#} December 1, 1886 to a poor farmer's family in a town in Yilong County, a {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (hill) and separate part of northern Sichuan Province. Of the fifteen {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (child) born to the family, only eight survived. His Hakka(客家) family migrated from Hunan Province and Guangdong Province {#blank#}4{#/blank#}Sichuan. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} his family was poor, by pooling(合伙经营) resources, Zhu was chosen to be sent to a regional private school in 1892. At the age of nine, Zhu was adopted by his wealthy uncle, {#blank#}6{#/blank#} political influence allowed him {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (gain) access to Yunnan Military Academy. Later, he attained the rank of Xiucai in 1906, {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (make) him qualified as a civil servant. He was admitted into a Sichuan high school around 1907, and graduated in 1908. Consequently, he returned to Yilong's primary school as a gym {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (instruct). He was an advocate(倡导者) of modern science and political teaching, rather than the strict classical education afforded by schools, so he {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (dismiss) from his post and entered the Yunnan Military Academy in Kunming. There, he joined the Beiyang Army and the Tongmenghui secret political society.

    Lake Titicaca is a famous lake in South America. The culture of the ancient people around the lake is thought to be{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(true) advanced but has long remained a mystery. Recently, however, scientists participating{#blank#}2{#/blank#} an exploration project there have found what is believed to be{#blank#}3{#/blank#} 1000-year-old temple under the water.

    The temple {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (build) by ancient people was indeed quite well preserved. The project leaders hope to begin raising important materials from the site in the{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (expect) that they can solve the mystery eventually.

    “Scientists have not yet had the opportunity to study the materials carefully due to a great many{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(hardship). Yet with our efforts, we are bound{#blank#}7{#/blank#} (achieve) greater success if we can keep{#blank#}8{#/blank#}up.” said project director, John Aubi.

    Since 2016, divers from the research team{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(make) over 200 dives into water 30 meters deep. They have kept recording the ancient remains on film. A meeting，{#blank#}10{#/blank#}will start later, is aimed to review the film.

    A best friend is someone {#blank#}1{#/blank#} you can tell everything to, even your most personal {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (feel) and thoughts. Anne Frank treated her diary {#blank#}3{#/blank#} her best friend. The German Nazis were in search of Anne and her family. The family had to hide away from the chase. They didn't dare to go out even in the evenings. They had to stay {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(indoor) day and night. Not {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(be) able to go out for such a long time, Anne missed the beauty of nature so much that she {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(grow) crazy about everything to do with {#blank#}7{#/blank#}. She stayed up until eleven thirty one evening on purpose just to see {#blank#}8{#/blank#} moonlight. She said, "This is the first time that I have seen the moonlight {#blank#}9{#/blank#} I came here."

    {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(fortune), the family were discovered at last and taken away from the hiding place.

    Jogging makes you burn fat and lose weight. In addition to increasing metabolism (新陈代谢), jogging is an {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (effect) way to burn more calories, {#blank#}2{#/blank#} helps you lose weight. If calories consumed in food are less than calories {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (spend) during exercise and other daily activities, you will lose weight. It is impossible not to! Many people have learned how to lose weight by{#blank#}4{#/blank#} (start) a running program.

    Jogging {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (help) to reduce stubborn fat. A running program can really help to cut back {#blank#}6{#/blank#} the last of your stubborn fat. Change can take a long time to come but {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (eventual) it makes maintaining a healthy weight much easier.

    If you suffer from poor appetite, jogging will improve your appetite. Along with all other {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (form) of exercise – the harder you work, the more you will eat {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (repair) your muscles and refuel them. When you start to run longer, you will start to eat to fuel your body, and may even find that you need to eat more food every day {#blank#}10{#/blank#} you did when you were overweight.

    With the rapid development of the Internet, more and more teenagers make friends online nowadays. Some people say it's good to do that, while others think it's {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(harm) especially to school pupils.

    Some consider that making friends online is a modern way to share friendship {#blank#}2{#/blank#} others. They can express their thoughts {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(free) to improve social skills and fluency in English. On the contrary, some strongly believe it is {#blank#}4{#/blank#} waste of time to make friends through online communication and what's worse, those so-called "friends" are likely to cheat you after {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(gain) your trust.

    In my opinion, {#blank#}6{#/blank#}the Internet is good or not depends on how we use it. If it {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(use) properly, we can communicate with people {#blank#}8{#/blank#} come from every corner of the world, and share life experiences. Of course, however, since the Internet was born, many bad men {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (make) use of it to do something bad. So we must learn to determine true or false and avoid being hurt.

    In conclusion, every coin has two {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (side). So does the Internet. If used in a proper way, the Internet has more advantages in seeking friendship.
