The Universal Beijing Resort, currently the    1    (large) in scale worldwide, was open to the public on Monday.

The film-themed lands, rides and shows, such as the Transformers Metrobase and the Harry Potter rides, and Kung Fu Panda Land of Awesomeness among other Universal“firsts”,     2     (be) the most popular attractions during the opening so far.

In the Hollywood zone , movie lovers will not only see a recreation of the Hollywood Walk of Fame,     3    get a behind-the-scenes filmmaking experience at the splendid studios,    4    was created by Hollywood film director Steven Spielberg and Chinese filmmaker Zhang Yimou. More than a    5    （magic）land for cinephiles（影迷），the resort is also a foodie heaven with a total of 80 restaurants and food stalls    6    (serve) all kinds of food that one can name from different movies.

As the first Universal Studios theme park in China, UBR has many China-related elements. or example,the Kung Fu Panda Land of Awesomeness,    7    (inspire) by Dream Works Animation’s Film, is Univensal’s first “land” with such a theme. The land has small bridges and flowing water Lanters are hung in many places. Accompanied with Chinese music, visitors can eat    8    (variety) of Chinese desserts in restaurants that look like ancient buildings   Building such    9    impressive park isn’t easy. But Chinese    10    (wise) and power help push it forward. It is the fifth worldwide for Universal Studios and the third in Asia, after Japan and Singapore.

Thousands of years ago, the West Lake in Hangzhou was connected to the sea. The Qiantang River, not far away from the West Lake,     1    (enter) the sea in the eastern part of this area. The solid material such as sand, stones and mud carried by the river     2    (eventual) settled at the bottom and blocked the connection between the West Lake and the sea,     3     (make) it an inland water.

Since the ninth century AD, the breathtaking scenery of the West Lake in all seasons     4    (appear) time and again in poems, stories and legends.     5     impresses people most is that there are about 630 legends of the West Lake alone. Su Dongpo wrote a poem     6     (praise) the West Lake and compared it to Xizi ,     7    Chinese legendary beauty. From then on, the West Lake got another elegant name — Xizi Lake.

In 2011, West Lake Cultural Landscape of Hangzhou was included     8     the World Heritage List. It is now visited by an endless stream of     9    (visitor) from home and abroad. Perhaps some of them will add     10    (they) own stories to West Lake’s wealth of literature.

It’s really true    1    people say about English politeness: it’s everywhere. When squeezing past someone or passing through a crowd in a narrow place, people say “sorry”. When    2    (get) off a bus, English passengers say “thank you” rather than the driver. In Germany, people would never do these things.     3    all, squeezing past others is sometimes unavoidable, and the bus driver is only doing his job.

People thank each other everywhere in England all the time. When people buy something in a shop, customers and shop    4    (assist) in most cases thank each other twice or more. In Germany, it would be    5    (surprise) to hear more than one thank you in such a conversation. English employers thank their employees for doing their jobs,    6     is different from Germans, who would     7    (normal) think that paying their workers money is already enough.

Another thing I observed during my stay was that English people rarely criticize others. Even when I was working and mistakes    8    (point) out to me, my employers repeated several times but none of their explanations were intended as scolding me. It has been my impression that    9    avoiding scolding, English people are making an effort to make others feel     10    (comfort).

As the countdown to the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics continues, the new high-speed railway line     1     (connect) the capital with Olympic host city Zhangjiakou has just entered service. It cuts the travel time between the two from three hours     2     47 minutes. But this isn’t just another bullet train. This beauty, which can run up to 350 kilometers per hour without a driver, has brought     3     is called “ the smart high-speed railway age”.

So what makes them “smart”? Well, the carriages     4     (equip) with 5G signals can detect any operational abnormalities with real-time data collected with sensors. Meanwhile, each individual seat has     5     (it) own touch-screen control panel and wireless charging docks. The trains can     6     (automatic) start, stop and adjust to the different speed limits when in     7     (operate). Back at the station, robots and facial recognition technologies can help passengers with directions, luggage and paperless check-ins.

Today, China is home to the world’s largest high-speed rail network, and the     8     (fast) commercially operating train—the Shanghai maglev. According to the China State Railway Group, 1,036 Fuxing bullet trains started their mission in 2017,     9     the series were first launched. Over the past 4 years, they     10     (send) over 100 million passengers across the country.

Imagine a drug that could enhance a child’s creativity and critical thinking. Imagine that this drug were simple to make, safe     1     ( take) and could be had for free.

The nation’s leading pediatricians (儿科医生) say this miracle compound exists. In a new clinical report, they are urging doctors to prescribe(开处方)    2     to the children in their care.

What is this wonder drug? Play.

“This may seem old-fashioned,     3     there are skills to be learned when kids are not told     4     to do,” said Dr. Michael Yogman, a Harvard Medical School pediatrician.     5     it is physical play, outdoor play, or social or pretend play, kids draw important lessons from the chance to make things up as they go along, he said.

The advice,     6     was issued in August by the American Academy of Pediatrics (美国儿科学会), may come as a shock to some parents. After they spend years     7     (worry) over which toys to buy, which apps to download and which skill-building programs to send their kids to after school, letting them simply play — or better yet, playing with them — may seem like a step backward.

The pediatricians insist that it is not. The academy does not include specific recommendations for the amount of play. Instead, it     8     (ask) doctors to advise parents before their babies turn two     9     play is essential to healthy development.

When parents engage in play with their children, it deepens relationships and offsets(抵消) the bad effects of all kinds of stress, including poverty, the academy says. In the pediatricians’ view, essentially every life skill     10     (value) in adults can be built up with play.

I’m    1    only daughter of my parents. So they are worried     2    everything I do. For example,    3    I ride my bike, my parents won’t let me     4     (ride) by myself. They are afraid I might fall off my bike and hurt    5    . They are taking great trouble to support the bike, with my mother even     6     (carry) a first-aid box. I’m not free to ride and I often say    7     (angry), “Why not let me ride alone?”

Now, most families have one child.     8    (Parent) want to do everything for their children. This does no good to them. Too much love from parents may prevent children from     9    (be) independent. In my opinion, parents should let their children do    10     they should do alone.
