Recently, a foreign student in China has given a very touching answer to the questions: What should China be proud of? Lots of people have d1. it with great enthusiasm (热情) on the Internet.
Emma is from Canada, and she came to China four years ago. Now she is a university student in Ningbo, Zhejiang Province. The following w2. are about what China is like in the foreign girl’s eyes.
“Finding a job in China can be very s3.. China offers more job chances than any other country in the world.”
“Its public security is also great. I’ve travelled to many countries, and I dare not (不敢) go out alone at night, but it’s different in China. I needn’t worry about my s4. at all, even at midnight.”
“Now about 400 million Chinese people are studying English. China has the largest number of English speakers in non-English speaking countries. It is quite an a5. number, isn’t it?
“The speed of Chinese trains is high. During my third visit to my friend in Beijing, I chose to take a train to go there. It took seven hours to get to Beijing from Ningbo by train. From Ningbo to Beijing, the train runs 1,365 kilometers for only seven hours, which makes it more c6. for people to ply (定时往来) between the two cities.”
“I think there’ll be many more things China will be proud of. I strongly believe the big oriental country must be much better than other countries.”

Have you ever noticed the black and white bars on a book? Do you know what they are used for?
They are barcodes(条形码) used in most products. If you go to a supermarket, you can see almost every product with a barcode on it. Barcodes contain i1.about the product, such as name and production date. It’s an easy and convenient way to know about the products. Just scan(扫描) the bars with a barcode reader and everything is c2..
The first use of a barcode in a supermarket checkout system was on a pack of American Wrigley Company chewing gum(口香糖) in 1974. Beyond supermarkets, barcodes are needed e3.: for renting cars, for luggage checks on a plane, for parcels you send; life would be rather difficult without barcodes. Most of our things would get lost in the post.
Barcodes c4. as well. Barcodes in the past were 1-D, but now there are 2-D barcodes, such as QR code. Since 2009, QR has been used on Chinese train tickets. People can e5. stadiums, cinemas and theaters by holding certain types of barcodes.
If you find these barcode things b6., a barcode building might be more up your street. In St Petersburg, Russia, there is a building designed like a barcode. It looks strange, but it’s a7. a shopping mall. There are games too. Barcode Monsters is a mobile phone game. You have to scan barcodes and find the monsters!

Now students’ English handwriting gets worse and worse. That makes their teachers feel w1.. Is your English handwriting beautiful? If not, here are four steps that really work!
◆Use paper with lines
Using paper with lines can keep you writing straight instead of up or down when you write English words or sentences. Those lines on the paper can help you to write words in the r2. size. Be sure to fill the lined space completely. And make sure those capital letters (大写字母) are written properly.
◆Slow down
If your writing is hard to read, try slowing down a little. For some kids, going slower makes the handwriting clear. If you write too fast, it’s hard for you to stop where you should, and even w3., you may make more mistakes.
◆Hold your pencil right
When you hold your pencil in a correct way, writing is much easier. Some kids press down really hard when they write. That makes the handwriting not nice. Try to relax yourself and don’t hold the pencil so hard. Let your writing appear nice and clean. If you do so, people will guess you are a student with a good h4..
◆Draw more pictures
Drawing can improve your handwriting. You need to use the skills to c5. your pencil better when you are drawing pictures. Even though you have no chance to draw at school, you can practice by y6. at home.
Handwriting is very important. Imagine you are a world-famous movie star or a well-known sports player, what do you do when your f7. run up to you? Give them your autographs (亲笔签名), of course!

Anxiety is the appropriate emotion when the personal terror – of a volcano, an arrow, a stab(刺伤) in the back and other disasters, all directed against one’s self – d1..
The kind of world that produces anxiety is actually a world of relative s2., a world in which no one feels that he himself is facing sudden death. The anxiety exists as an uneasy state of mind, in which one has a feeling that something unspecified(不具体的) and indeterminable may go wrong. If the world seems to be going well, this produces anxiety – for good times may end. If the world is going badly – it may get w3.. Anxiety tends to be without f4.; the anxious person doesn’t know whether to blame himself or other people. He isn’t sure whether it is the current year of the administration or a change in climate or the atom bomb that is to blame for this undefined sense of unease.
It is clear that we have developed a society which depends on having the right amount of anxiety to make it work. W5. we agree that too much anxiety is harmful to mental health, we have come to rely on anxiety to push us into seeing a doctor about a symptom which may indicate cancer, into checking up on that old life insurance policy which may have out-of-date terms in it, into having a conference with our child’s teacher even though his report card looks all right.
People who are anxious enough keep their car insurance up, have the brakes checked, don’t take a drink when they have to drive. People who are too anxious either r6. to go into cars – and so complicate the ordinary course of life – or drive so tensely and carefully that they help avoid accidents. People who aren’t anxious enough take their c7., which increases the terrible accidents of the roads.

"When it started h4., we thought ‘is this really true?' "said Arnaud Tarroux, one of the scientists who tracked (追踪)the female fox. Was there "an error (错误) in the data?"
The data was real, the scientists decided as the fox kept going. The foxes 'travels last year, recorded in a recent paper, surprised Tarroux, even though the animal is known for its a5.to live in extremely cold areas.

"We didn't really know how the fox would do that and how long it would take for it to do this kind of trip," Tarroux said.
The scientists think the fox may have taken off because there was not enough food for it, but they're not sure. The tracker (追踪器) stopped working in February, so the scientists no l7. know the place where the fox is.
