In less than 18 months, there were over 200,000 people     1     (read) my blog! At first, I only regarded it     2     a hobby, but companies started paying me to take photos and publish them. In 2013, I was determined to make my dream come true: I would become Australia’s first     3     (profession) photo blogger. It was a     4     (challenge) job, but I did it. Now I spend three weeks out of every month travelling and have over 464,000 fans following me online. I’ve got to know more about this country and     5     (it) people.

I use my photography to make     1     impact on people,     2    (especial) when it comes to environmental issues. Today I’ve been photographing a crocodile swimming close to our boat, the Kimberley Quest, all day. When I post the picture online, I will make a comment about how bad it is to feed wild crocodiles. This crocodile is used to passengers throwing food from boats     3     now she is becoming familiar     4     humans. Over time, this could make her a danger to people living in the area. If I can do something to make others aware     5     the problem, then that’s part of the solution.

“We regret to inform you...” These are the words that every writer dreads receiving, but words every writer knows well. The response from a publisher comes back and the writer eagerly opens and reads it, their hearts s    1     when they reach that final sentence. You may have spent years giving up your weekends and free time to write your life’s work, yet still this is often not enough. Everyone knows that success rarely happens overnight, but perhaps not many know that a lot of highly successful writers have p    2     faced rejection.

Take for example J. K. Rowling. When she received her first rejection letter, she decided that it meant she now had something in common with her favourite writers, and s    3     it on her kitchen wall. Rowling had spent years surviving     4     little money, spending all her time writing. When she finally finished her first book, she received c    5     from publishers along the lines of “too difficult for children”, “too long”, “Children would not be interested in it”. N    6    , she persevered. After a total of twelve rejections, one publisher eventually agreed to print 500 copies of her first book, and as we know, Harry Potter became     7     global success, with over 400 million books     8     and translated into more than seventy different languages.

So, it seems that talent alone isn’t enough to g    9     success. While a lot of hard work and a t    10     of luck play a part, perseverance is the key. Keep trying and eventually you will read the words “We are delighted to inform you…”

When the project ended in 1980,     1     (被视为一个巨大的成功).     2     (这些国家不仅找到了一条未来发展之路) that did not run over the relics of the past, but they had also learnt that    3     (国家合作是可能的) to build a better tomorrow.

The spirit of the Aswan Dam project is still alive today. Perhaps the best example is shown by UNESCO,     4     (该组织实施了一项计划) that prevents world cultural heritage sites around the world from disappearing. If a problem seems too difficult for a single nation, the global community can sometimes provide a solution.

A short     1     (航班) takes you into the Amazon rainforest. You can spend 3 days exploring the rainforest with a local guide and enjoying the plants and animals u    2     to the rainforest. You will surely be amazed by your     3     (目的地).

Lang Ping and Michael Jordan are athletes who are m    4     in their field and     5     (树立好榜样) for others. When preparing for the 2015 World Cup, the team that Lang Ping had built was falling apart. Her     6     (determine) was tested, but two weeks later, they were world champions! Michael Jordan’s skills were impressive, which made him become known as “Air Jordan”, the mental s    7     that he showed made him unique. Jordan says that the secret to his success is learning from his f    8    .

I know I’ll have to study harder as a senior high school student and get used to     9     (对……负责) a lot more.

It is not unusual for teenagers of young generation to     10     (addict) to computer games and online world.

I am so glad to hear from you. The coming-of-age ceremony was held in our school on June 8^th this month.

During the coming-of-age ceremony,     1     (校长祝贺我们步入成人，回顾了我们所经历的成长阶段). After that, we all watched the video of alumnus fighting against the epidemic.

Through the activity, what I felt is that I am able to shoulder the responsibility and make us stronger and more determined.     2     (当面对困难和失败时，我必须克服它们。) In the future,I will be a good doctor to heal the wounded and rescue the dying, devoting myself to my work.

Best wishes！

Yours,
