When Zhang Lingshan was a child, she would watch the Chinese period drama Palace on television, attracted by the characters’ ancient clothing. She didn’t know what these beautiful clothes     1     (call)—only that they were from some     2     (distance) past. “They looked fairy-like, dreamy,” she said. “I was     3     (complete) drawn by the beauty of these clothes, and then eventually came to understand the culture of Hanfu, and I liked it more and more.”

Now aged nineteen and     4     (live) in Beijing, Zhang is     5     member of China’s growing “hanfu movement”—a renaissance (复兴) of the ancient clothing traditionally worn by ethnic-majority Han Chinese before the Qing dynasty. Tight-knit Hanfu communities and university clubs often meet for themed activities. Zhang and her friends sometimes visit places with ancient architecture, like Beijing’s Forbidden City,     6     emperors once lived, to take     7    (photo) in costume and post them on social media. They have more than 20,000 fans who often ask them     8     more pictures.

Nowadays, Hanfu is seen as a way     9     (celebrate) Chinese culture and improve national self-esteem. In the past few years, Hanfu clubs and social media platforms     10     (help) to bring the Han clothing back under the spotlight. “It’s the confidence of the younger people, the confidence of the country,” said Christine Tsui, a fashion columnist and researcher in Shanghai.

Why do different people like different colors? The answer depends largely     1       cultural values. To the Egyptians, green is a color     2     stands for the hope and joy of spring, while for Muslims, it means heaven. Red is a symbol of good luck in many cultures. During the Spring Festival in China, children     3     (give) money in a red envelope to bring good fortune in the New Year. For many nations, blue is a symbol of protection and religious beliefs. Greek people often wear a blue necklace hoping to protect     4     (they) against evils.

People’s     5    (choose) of colors is also affected by their bodies’ reactions toward them. Green is said to be the most restful color. It has the ability to reduce pain and relax people both mentally     6     physically. When     7    (work) in green environment, people have fewer stomach aches. Red can make a person’s blood pressure     8    (rise) and increase people’s appetite. Many decorators will include different shades of red in the restaurant. And many commercial websites will have a red “Buy Now” button because red is a color that     9     (easy) catches a person’s eye. Unlike red, blue is believed to cause people to lose appetite. Therefore,     10     you want to eat less, eating from blue plates can help.

It is common that more and more high school students open     1     (them) own micro blogs on the Internet. For one thing, it can provide a colorful platform to show their talent. For another, it is a useful way     2     (reduce) their pressure. And all these make it more and more popular     3     high school students. But many parents and teachers hold a different view. They think that managing one’s micro blog     4     (take) a lot of time and energy, which should be used to study.

In my view, I am     5     (great) in favor of this activity. Today the Internet is playing     6     important and essential role in our life. Therefore, as high school students of the Information Age, we need to learn to make use of this     7     (value) tool to communicate and display ourselves. What’s more, opening and organizing micro blogs need various abilities such as writing, designing, being skillful at computer and so on. Only if we master those abilities can we make a successful micro blog. As a result, we improve ourselves while     8     (organize) our micro blogs.

In fact, micro blog     9     (it) is of little harm. It is your attitude towards it     10     matters. We should take the advantages and avoid some bad effects.
