China is home to different kinds of soybeans. In 2011, the soybean output of China dropped     1    the fourth place around the globe,     2     （account）for only 5.55% of the world’s total. China now relies    3    (much) on import to meet a domestic(国内的) need for the plant than ever.

Actually, Gai Juyi is one of the millions of diligent Chinese people    4    (work) hard to change the situation. For over two     5    (decade), Gai and his team went into various fields across the country just to collect seed from the farmers. “None of the seeds is the same.” he said. Seed collection is already no easy job. And they even     6    (have) to delay the process from time to time because of a lack of funding, many of Gai’s students left    7     industry for the small financial payback.     8    , Gai has remained in his post and spared no efforts in looking after the precious seeds.

The hard work of Gai and his team    9    (final) paid off. Thanks to them, China’s soybean harvest doubled over the years. The old man said, “I know     10    my persistence means when I see self-produced tofu and soybean milk on Chinese people’s table.”

Just now, I entered the website “Topic for Today” . I feel     1     (interest) in the report on middle school students’ using cell-phones on campus. In fact，more students now come to school     2     cell-phones. My schoolmates have different opinions. Some think     3    is convenient to get in touch with others with the cell-phone,     4    also makes them feel safe especially in time of trouble. Besides，it is nice to enjoy     5    (variety) functions of different cell-phones.

Others think differently. First，the cell-phone is not     6    must in school，as there are some IC phones there,     7    (make) it easy to call others. Second, many students often play e-games and send    8     (message) with their cell-phones, even in class, which will surely have bad effects on their study. What’s more, a large amount of time and money will    9    (waste).In my opinion, the cell-phone is a useful tool in our daily life. But it doesn’t mean we can use it     10    free) in school.

A few months after returning the US from Germany, I took part in a college course in French. Since I had learned to speak German good in Germany, I thought that it might be interested to begin studying another language.

China successfully landed the Chang'e 4 lunar probe(月球探测器)on the far side of the moon on January 3,2019, becoming the only country in history    1    (touch) the lunar surface unseen by those on Earth. The far side ofthe moon has been seen and mapped    2    (previous) by astronauts of the Apollo missions. But it is the first time that the moon's far side    3    (set) foot on by any spacecraft, and the successful landing of Chang'e 4 is seen as a major milestone in space     4    (explore).

The Chang'e 4 spacecraft consists    5    two parts:a lander and a rover(巡视器). Representing China's    6    (new) step in the lunar probe project of all time, it landed at 10:26 am Beijing time. Then it sent back a photo of the landing place.    7    (shoot) through cameras on the probe's lander, the photo marks the world's first image taken on the surface of the far side of the moon. One of the photos published by the China National Space Administration shows the place    8    Chang'e 4's rover-named Yutu 2~will be heading hours later for    9    purpose of conducting further research. The name Chang'e has its roots in the Chinese goddess of the moon. In the ancient tale, Chang'e    10    (fly) to the heavens and landed on the moon as her final resting place.

When you    1    ( hurt ) deeply by someone, you may feel it very difficult    2    (remove)your anger. But forgiving is possible and it can be     3    great benefit to your health. Up to now, a research     4     (show) that people who forgive have more energy, better appetite and better sleep. “People who forgive show     5     (little) anger and more hopefulness,” says Dr. Frederic Luskin,     6     wrote the book Forgive for Good. “So it can help reduce the tiredness and allow people to feel more     7     (energy).”

So when someone hurts you, cool down first. Take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure. Don’t wait for an apology. “Many times the person who hurt you may escape     8     (apologize),” says Dr. Luskin. “They may have wanted to hurt you or they just don’t see things in same way.”

Next keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean accepting     9     the person has done to you. Finally, try to see things from that person’s opinions. To achieve it, just put     10     (you) in that person’s place.

China is leading the world in facial recognition algorithms（人脸识别算法）. It is reported that its best algorithm can recognize l0 million people     1     a single mistake in less than a second.

The top five of the 39 facial recognition algorithms in the world come from China, according to a test,     2     released the results for 2018 last Friday. YITU Technology,     3     Shanghai-based company that claimed both the top and second spot on the list, said that its top algorithm is able     4     （recognize）nearly every person in a sample base of 10 million. However, “it is very likely for a human brain to make     5     （mistake） in recognizing the identities of 100 people,” the company said. Algorithms from Beijing-based company Sense Time     6     （win） the third and fourth spot, while the Shenzhen Institutes of Advanced Technology（SIAT）claimed     7     （five） in the test. YITU said that high facial recognition accuracy（精确）means that users gain     8     （good） experiences when     9     （use） related products. For example, when a user uses facial ID for payment on a smartphone, it will not authorize the payment for someone else with a similar     10     （appear）as the user, the company noted.

Chinese tennis legend Li Na will be inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame.     1     (amazing), Li is the first Asian player     2     (receive) the sport’s ultimate honor. She was joined by Mary Pierce and Yevgeny Kafelnikov for the halls Class of 2019, which     3     (announce)at the Australian Open last month.

Her first Grand Slam trophy came at the 2011 French Open,     5     she defeated four top-10     6     (opponent) along the way. To     7     (she) credit, those on-court achievements, along with L’s engaging     8     (personal), helped spur interest in tennis at home in China.

“I have loved seeing the sport grow in China,” Li said in     9     statement, “and I’m proud to be part of that history.” The formal induction ceremony will be held     10     July 20th in Rhode Island.

My experience of teaching students was a wonderful adventure. I had to deal with various challenges again and again.

The     1     (great) part of it was the relationship I developed with two students. One of the students was Michael,     2     I met when I was working for a kindergarten. Before I became a morning bus assistant, I     3     (hear) that Michael was a student who would always shout, stand up on the bus, make fun     4     other students, and distract the bus driver. So I decided that each morning,     5     he got on the bus, I'd have Michael sit beside me. At first he didn't like this idea. But soon he settled down,     6     (know) he had no choice. I began to talk to him about little things outside of school life, such as his weekend     7     (activity) and things that he liked to do. I also listened     8     (close) to him. As I gave Michael the attention that he needed, little by little, he began to behave better and better.

Another student I took a special interest in was a boy     9     (name) Tony, a third grader. To some degree, Tony seemed to be a slow or passive learner. So I decided to see if I could find a way to encourage Tony     10     (stay) at the task. Before long, he was paying more attention to his studies and scored high in all tests.

Graffiti (涂鸦) and street art are forms of art created on walls or public surfaces. This art is often considered illegal because it is done without the     1    (permit) of the building owners. These art forms     2     (exist) since the times of ancient Greece. But the more modern style began forming in the 1960s in the cities of New York and Philadelphia. “Graffiti” often appears as words-     3     (usual) the names of the artist or their art crew. Graffiti artists write the words in     4     (create) ways and with colorful spray-paint.

“Street art” is more based     5    images. Artists try to communicate a message through these images. Graffiti and street art can be controversial. They sometimes damage someone’s property. Washington has tried to increase its fines for illegal graffiti,     6    , however, is encouraging the creation of public art. America’s capital city is trying hard     7     (control) its illegal graffiti problem. At the same time, city officials recognize the value and importance of street art. There is     8     high demand for more artists to make street art legally. But the city offers few     9     (chance) for young D.C. street artists to develop their skills without     10     _ (break) the law.

Shawn Cheshire is a blind cyclist who competed in the 2016 Paralympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. She lost her ability     1    (see) after an accident nine years ago. She has tried to become as     2    (depend) as possible in the last few years.

She said that,     3     a long time, she was in a really dark place and hated being blind. She said that sports and physical exercise gave     4    (she) another opportunity at living.

Earlier this month, Cheshire crossed 68 kilometers of steep and uneven ground in the Grand Canyon(大峡谷). She did so in 24 hours and 15 minutes,     5     is believed to be a record for a blind hiker (徒步旅行者). The     6    (early) record of 28 hours     7    (set) in 2014.

Three friends helped her during the Grand Canyon hike. They walked several steps apart. They guided and warned her of     8    (barrier). She listened for and followed the sound of a bell     9    (wear) by the lead hiker. She used hiking poles for balance.

Cheshire and her friends finished the hike on October 8, 2018. She said as the group neared     10     end of the trip, “I had a huge ball of emotion welled up in my chest –I cannot believe we just did that.”

It is well known that the Chinese have great respect for their elders, and here is an occasion to show it—the Chongyang Festival. It falls     1     the ninth day of the ninth lunar month. In Chinese, nine     2    (regard) as the number of “yang”. The ninth day of the ninth month is the day that has two “yang” numbers, and “chong” in Chinese means double, which is     3     the name “Chongyang” came into being.

The festival can date back to the Warring States Period. However, it was not     4    (formal) set as a festival until the Tang Dynasty. In 1989, the Chinese government     5    (declare) the ninth day of the ninth lunar month to be Seniors’ Day—a day to respect     6     elderly and to let them enjoy     7    (they).

Traditionally, people climb mountains, drink chrysanthemum (菊花) wine, and eat double-ninth cakes. Since cake in Chinese is pronounced “gao” meaning “high”, people consider climbing a high mountain to be the same as eating cake in the hope of     8    (promote) to high positions. And people often think that chrysanthemum wine can get rid of all kinds of diseases and     9    (disaster).

Today many activities are held     10    ( show) respect for the seniors like organizing a trip for them, sending them gifts and more on the day of the festival.
