My name is Han Jing. Today is my first day       1    senior high school. I’ll tell you my first       2    (impress) of the new school.

When I first entered the senior high school schoolyard, I was anxious     3    everything. My first class was maths.       4    was difficult to learn but my classmates and teachers were       5    (friend) and helpful. The       6    (chemist) class in the science lab was great and I was very interested. I miss my friends from junior high school. I’m not sure       7    well I will do in school this year,       8    I don’t feel nervous or     9     (frighten) any more. Now, I feel more         10     (confidence) and believe my future school life will be wonderful.

The Great Wall of China is one of the greatest     1     (sight) in the world—the longest wall in the world.     2     （it） winding path and steep mountains take in some great scenery. The “Long Wall” has a long history—more than 2,600 years. It     3     (build) in different areas by different dynasties.

In the Qin dynasty, the First Emperor of Qin linked the northern walls     4     (prevent) aggression from northern nations. In the Han dynasty, the emperors     5     wanted to protect trade on the Silk Road extended the Great Wall into today’s western China. The Great Wall is a building project with the longest duration and at     6     cost of lives, blood, sweat and tears. It     7     (deserve) its place among the “New 7 Wonders of the World” and the UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

During the construction of the Great Wall, there were many     8     (extreme) interesting stories, such as Lady Meng Jiang weeping over her husband’s death at the Great Wall, a sad but romantic love story set in the Qin dynasty. The Great Wall of China is the must-see attraction in China. Perhaps the most     9     (power) advertising words in history come from the poetic pen of Chairman Mao, “Until you reach the Great history Wall, you’re no hero.” It means getting     10     difficulties before reaching a goal.

Some people thought in 1941 the Nazi army stole the Amber room,       1     was once called the eighth wonder of the world. Others believed that it     2    (destroy)by the Nazi army in the World War Ⅱ. In fact, nobody knows     3     exactly happened to it.

It is certain that the Amber room was     4    (high)thought of. It was a great treasure decorated with gold and jewels. Afterwards, Catherine II had more details     5    (add)to it Just imagine how     6    (amaze)it was! So       7     is no wonder that man people have been looking for it since it got missing. The searches came to no end.

In order to celebrate the 300^th   birthday of St. Petersburg, the Russians and Germans decided to rebuild it by       8    (study)old photos of the former Amber room. The rebuilding lasted 24 years and shows the world       9     new Amber Room, attracting millions of     10    (visitor)around the world.
