(1) [in'sted] let families have two children.
People(2) [ nju:] the news after an important meeting in Beijing. It's reported that there are many(3) (原因)for the change in policy. One of them is to balance population development.
China has the(4) population in the world. It carried out the one﹣child policy in 1980. But the government(5) [ə'laʊd] only a small number of couples to have two children.For example,in the countryside,(6) the first﹣born is a girl, couples can have a second child.
In 2013, the Chinese government gave other couples a(7) (机会)to have two children.Families could have two if one parent was an only child.(8) (然而), too many young people in the cities aren't(9) in having a second child any longer.
At the end(10) 2014, China had a population of 1.37 billion people. A total of 800 million of them are employed(雇佣). With the two﹣child policy, an increase in births will change the labor shortage.

At 7 am,we got on the state﹣of﹣the﹣art Fuxing Hao train at Shanghai Railway Station.We stored our(1) (背包)and found our seats.Unlike other trains which start with a shake and much(2) (噪音),this train felt so smooth that if you were not looking out of windows,you could(3) (几乎不)tell we were moving.Yet,within minutes,we were passing over the rails at speeds of more than 350 kilometers an hour.
Soon,the towns of(4) (东部的)China were rushing by.I saw my wife smiling and(5) (指向)to a coin she had balanced on the table.She took another coin and balanced it next to the first,and then another,until she had a(6) (行)of coins.They stood there on the table for more than 20 minutes before one finally fell over.
After that,we(7) (两个都)went back to reading and enjoying the beauty outside.We felt quite(8) (放松的).Then,before we knew it,we heard the announcement that we were arriving in Beijing.For 1,318 kilometers,we(9) (花费)only 4 hours and 38 minutes.Thanks to high speed trains,we can travel in China much more conveniently.No(10) (疑惑),they will also bring the people of the country closer together,and in time bring about deep social changes,the full nature of which no one can fully guess.

There were many people on a bus. An old man(1) (look) here and there. He wanted to find(2) empty seat. Then he saw one and went to it. A small bag was on the seat. And a young man was beside it.
"Is this seat empty?" asked the old man.
"No, it's (3) an old woman. She went to buy some bananas," said the young man.
"Well, let me sit here, please. I'll leave here when she(4) (come) back," replied the old man.
After a few minutes, the bus started. "The old woman (5) (not come), but her bag is here.Let me give her the bag." Then the old man threw the bag out of the bus window.
The young man jumped up and shouted,"Don't throw! It's my bag!"
A man had a garden. He planted a rose and watered it c(1) . Before the rose blossomed (盛开),he noticed many thorns (刺) around the bud (花蕾) and he thought,"H(2) can any beautiful flower come from a plant with so many sharp thorns?" Because of this i(3) , he lost interest in this kind of plant, then he gave up watering the rose. And just b(4) it was ready to blossom, it died.
Good qualities are just like roses. There is a rose in e(5) spirit. The good qualities planted in us at birth, grow among the thorns﹣our weaknesses.Many of us look at o(6) and we only see our weaknesses.We lose heart,thinking that n(7) good can possibly come from us.We give up watering the roses in us, and slowly they die. We never realize the g(8) of being able to find out our good qualities.
Someone may not see the rose in himself,so we need to help him d(9) the rose.With love, we can accept a person into our life,even though we know his true weaknesses.At the same time,we should e(10) him to face his weaknesses bravely and correct them. Then he will blossom many times.

Music helps us exercise﹣but why does it have this effect?Experts say there are two main reasons.The(1) is simple:music takes our attention away.When we listen to a song we like,our brains focus on the music.For example,after we exercise(2) 20 minutes,our body might be tired.But we may not feel this immediately(3) we are listening to music.So we can exercise a little longer.
Music also makes us want to move. When we hear dance music, for example, we naturally start to move to the beat. A positive song also puts us in a good mood, so we feel much(4) .This gives us energy and helps us exercise longer. Music with a quick and continuing beat is good for exercising. "But the music shouldn't be too fast,"(5) Dr. Costas, a famous sports expert. In general, songs in the range of 120﹣140 beats per minute (BPM) are the best.

What we can learn (10) the old man is this: if you've lost a lot over something that doesn't work,let it go and move on. It's better than continuing to lose.

Sometimes we fall in love with something at once and sometimes it takes long.The same is true with poems.If we're lucky(1)e , we open a book and find a poem that attracts us at once.But usually we need to spend a little(2)t or make a little effort to truly understand a poem, Today I′d like to talk about reading poems in ways that make the experience better.
Reading a poem repeatedly will deepen your understanding of it.Sometimes a poem that seems(3)b on first reading becomes interesting with more reading.A poem that feels meaningless becomes deeper and more meaningful.
And sometimes you′re just not in the right mood the first time you read a poem, but(4)l it touches your heart.

Read aloud and listen to the poem.Reading aloud will make the poem′s thythm clear.Besides,a poet′s reading is very helpful(7)b we can understand the poem's meanings from where the poet places emphasis(强调) or pauses(停顿).
After you finish reading a poem, take a few moments to consider(8)w it is saying.Sometimes its meanings are better understood(9)t repeated reading.Other times they need our careful and deep thought on a poem.
It is(10)h to say whether there's a right or wrong way to read poems, but reading practices will enrich your experience, increase your enjoyment, and deepen your understanding of any poem.
