I’ve had my fair share of travelling around China, and a recent week-long trip to Guizhou was my first time to the province. I tried looking up the meaning and significance of the name Guizhou before the trip,     1     (basic)to have a reasonable idea of what was in store for me. But that was     2     hard task so I inquired from a Chinese colleague on the trip. From what she said, initially the province     3     (name)after a famous mountain called “Gui”, sort of noble in literal translation and “zhou”, which simply means province in Chinese.     4     (keep)that in mind I set out on a journey of discovery and     5     I found was mind-blowing, a photographer’s paradise. Generally     6     (describe)as a mountainous province in southwestern China, with Guiyang as     7     (it)capital, the province is truly one of nature’s best kept secrets. Compared to other leading     8     (province)in China, with regard     9     development, Guizhou has some catching-up to do. However, the province remains unique not only for its amazing landscape,     10     for the role it played in the political history of modern China and the role it is to play in the world.

So rapidly does the technology develop that no one can predict what may happen tomorrow. The number of 5G users in China has reached 20 percent, which leaves the people in the world     1     (amaze). In China, operators are quick to provide continuous nationwide coverage,     2     (ensure) users a consistent experience. They also offer flexible service packages, which delivers a beneficial result for both users and     3     (they).

High-quality 5G networks     4     (drive) rapid growth of mobile data traffic so far, according to Ding Yun, Huawei's executive director and president of its carrier business group.     5     is estimated, the average data traffic per user per month will reach 600 GB by 2030. The energy consumption of wireless networks will     6     (definite) increase a lot if energy efficiency of existing networks remains unchanged. However,     7     has been confirmed is that Huawei has offered a comprehensive range of products and measures that address the power consumption issues of wireless networks.

Huawei has already employed low-carbon     8     (strategy) in more than 100 countries, including Saudi Arabia, Greece, Pakistan and Switzerland, helping operators reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 40 million tons. As     9     important player in the communications industry, Huawei will continue to put green development at the center of everything it does and develop innovative ways to build     10     (green) 5G networks worldwide than before.

The official medals of the Beijing 2022 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games were displayed on October 26^th. The organizing committee introduced the medals—called tong xin,     1     means togetherness that day.

The     6     side of the medals has the Beijing 2022 emblem at the center.     7     (visual), it looks quite plain at first glance, while details such as the carving of clouds and snowflake patterns as well as the uneven surface have made it     8     (special) than expected, according to the committee.

Gaining     9     (inspire) from jade for a second time honors the Chinese capital’s unique position as the first city     10    （host) the Summer and Winter Olympics.

Amy’s friendship was on the rocks, so she wrote a post on a forum exchange for advice about it. Since primary school, Amy, who was an awkward student then, and her friend Jenny, a popular and     1    (friend) girl, have been good friends for eight years. Whether they are walking to school, doing homework or just hanging out at the weekend, they are hardly     2    of each other’s sight. However, Jenny broke Amy’s heart.

The cheongsam (qipao) came into being during the early years of the Qing Dynasty. It evolved from the dresses of the “banner women (qi nu), which explains     1     it was called ‘cheongsam (qipao)’.”

In     4     early 1920s, the cheongsam was popularized among both Manchu and Han women, known as the national dress of women. After years of     5     (develop), now the design of the cheongsam     6     (divide) into the Beijing style, the Shanghai style and the Hong Kong style.

The Beijing-style cheongsam was mainly made     7     hand. Behind the seemingly simple lines, there is a complex production process. The buttons, for example, sometimes demand days of work     8     (complete).

Now, the traditional making     9     (technique) of the garment have been listed as a city-level intangible cultural heritage (物质文化遗产). As soon as you walk into the fashion studio of     10     (it) fifth-generation inheritor Zhang Fenglan, the classic beauty of the cheongsam can instantly lead you into a world of charm.

The history of Chinese garden architecture dates     1     the Shang and Zhou dynasties. During that period, Chinese kings and the nobility began developing forests and woods for hunting, which could    2    (see) as early gardens.

The Ming Dynasty    5     (follow) by the Qing Dynasty saw the heyday (最兴盛的时期) of Chinese garden architecture.
