One day, an old man came inside a restaurant. The restaurant’s     1    (own) Annie noticed him and asked if someone was together     2     him, and how he got there. The old man could not give any answers. Annie then asked him if he knew his name, and     3    (unexpected), the old man said, “Of course, I know my name!” But unluckily, the old man could not give any name either.

Then Annie called the government, and     4     officer answered the phone. After ten minutes, the officer came and talked with the old man, from which the officer learned that the man had a son. Then he got in touch with the old man’s son,     5     came to pick the man up later. This heart-warming story     6    (post) online later by Mike. So far, many people     7    (express) their lovely comments, and thousands have “liked” it as well.

It is     8    (thought) of people like Annie and the officer to go out of their way     9    (help) the old man. Giving a hand to strangers is one of the best     10    (gift) at difficult times.

How to unleash your art potential? Traditionally, people may bury themselves    1    learning painting skills at an atelier (画室) and begin from drawing lines. However, Maggie Wiebe,     2    21-year-old girl from Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan, has her own method. 

Wiebe and her school friend Jessie Rice are trying to do something     3    shows their love for art and also    4    (benefit) the environment. For the past year or so, they have tended a garden at their campus farm,    5    (plant) a variety of different colorful flowers, as well as flax (亚麻) to make linen (亚麻布) and paper    6     (use) in art. “I’ve been doing it my whole life,” she told the University Record website. “I’ve been drawing since I was 2. It’s never been a question for me that I would do something art-related, but rather    7    more specific art-related thing I’ll end up doing.”

Inspired by a group of old ladies in Canada who plant sustainable art materials and post their videos on social platform YouTube, Wiebe learned about how to plant, harvest and separate fibers. She planted different fruits and vegetables     8     (tradition) used to dye (染色) fabrics. She then put their peels into boiled water and added hot pressurized air to make a dye. For her, it’s a tiring process but enjoyable. 

Wiebe also likes fiber-based art, such as quilting, weaving and sewing. She has applied those techniques     9    her recent works,     10    (display)as part of the annual Senior Exhibition at her school.
