On March 14 in 2018, one of science’s brightest stars went dark. Stephen Hawking, the world-famous scientist, died at 76 in Cambridge, UK.
Hawking is considered by many to be the greatest scientist in history since Albert Einstein. He came up with the theory that the universe began with the Big Bang and will end in black holes. His theory became the important base for a lot of later research. He also wrote books to help common people understand the universe. His most famous book is A Brief History of Time（《时间简史》）， which has sold more than 10 million copies around the world, according to CNN.

Hawking travelled around the world to attend science meeting, visiting every continent, including Antarctica. He was also a fan of popular culture and appeared on TV shows such as Star Trek and The Big Bang Theory.
He celebrated his 60th birthday by going up in a hot-air balloon. When he was 65, he took part in a zero-gravity flight to experience weightlessness. He hoped to travel into space one day.

He was born in 1902 in Tianjin, northern China. In Chinese, he was known as Li Airui. Eric lived in China until the age of five. After that his parents sent him to school in England. In 1920, Eric went to the University of Edinburgh to study science.
Sports played a large part in his life and he became the fastest runner in Scotland. He was chosen to be part of Britain's 1924 Olympic team. The games were in Paris. The 100 metre race was his best event, but it was to be held on a Sunday. Eric，a strong Christian(基督教徒), refused to run on Sundays because he believed that it should be a day of rest as the Bible(圣经) teaches.
Although many people told him to run the race, he refused. Instead he started to train for other distances. At the Olympics he won a bronze medal in the 200 metre race and then a gold medal in the 400 metre race, setting a world record.
Though then famous in Scotland, Eric still loved and remembered China. He wanted to go back to the country where he was born. In 1925, he went to China and worked as a middle school teacher in Tianjin. Then he went to Hebei Province to help the poor people there.
After the Japanese invaded(入侵) China, Eric chose to stay. He wanted to help the sick and give hope to the Chinese people. In 1943, the Japanese sent him to a prison camp(集中营) in Weifang. Even in the camp, he continued to help the old people. He also arranged games for the children, and taught them science.
In 1945, Eric was very ill. He was given a chance to leave the camp but he refused. Instead he gave this chance to a pregnant woman. The inspiring man died six months before the end of the war. Many people still remember his service to the Chinese people of that area.

My favourite sportsperson
Good afternoon, everyone. My favourite sportsperson is Ma Long—one of the greatest table tennis players in the world. Just like many other successful sportsmen, Ma Long has made great achievements in his sports through his hard work. Born on October 20, 1988, Ma Long started to play table tennis at the age of five. When he was 13, his ability in table tennis was noticed by a coach. Then he had to leave his home Anshan, Liaoning for Beijing so that he could continue to train for table tennis. In 2003, Ma Long joined the national team. He trained very hard because he knew that hard work brings success. In 2008, he became famous. He won the men’s singles at the 2012 Table Tennis World Cup and the 2015 World Table Tennis Championships. However, Ma Long has never won a single gold medal at the Olympics. So I do hope he can win his first victory in the Olympic men’s single soon.
Thanks for listening.

One day, Semo broke the mirror into 108 pieces by accident. The pieces fell down to the earth and then turned into 108 colourful lakes. The lakes are also called Haizi by the local people.”可知，山神达戈爱上了女神色嫫，并送了她一面由风云制成的镜子。一天，女神色嫫不小心把镜子摔成了108块。这些碎片掉到地上，然后变成了108个五颜六色的湖泊。这些湖也被当地人称为海子。由此可知，这些湖是由山神达戈送给女神色嫫的镜子摔成的108块镜子碎片变成的。故填They were formed from 108 pieces of the goddess Semo’s mirror given by the god Dage.

Panda Lake is famous for the longest waterfall and the Arrow Bamboo Lake has a large area of bamboo, the favourite food of pandas.”可知，九寨沟有蓝色的湖泊、瀑布、森林、山脉和其他美丽的景色。这个地区有很多动植物。你可能知道三个主要的山谷——树正沟、日则沟和则查洼沟，但事实上，这里的景色远比你想象的要多。熊猫湖以最长的瀑布而闻名，箭竹湖有大面积的竹子，这是熊猫最喜欢的食物。由此可知，九寨沟景色优美，游客们会惊讶于此地的景色，应作肯定回答。故填Yes, they will.

On March 14 in 2018, one of science’s brightest stars went dark. Stephen Hawking, the world-famous scientist, died at 76 in Cambridge, UK.
Hawking is considered by many to be the greatest scientist in history since Albert Einstein. He came up with the theory that the universe began with the Big Bang and will end in black holes. His theory became the important base for a lot of later research. He also wrote books to help common people understand the universe. His most famous book is A Brief History of Time（《时间简史》）， which has sold more than 10 million copies around the world, according to CNN.

Hawking travelled around the world to attend science meeting, visiting every continent, including Antarctica. He was also a fan of popular culture and appeared on TV shows such as Star Trek and The Big Bang Theory.
He celebrated his 60th birthday by going up in a hot-air balloon. When he was 65, he took part in a zero-gravity flight to experience weightlessness. He hoped to travel into space one day.

Eric Liddell was known as the flying Scotsman(苏格兰人) because he ran so fast. But he is most remembered as a man of honour and bravery.
He was born in 1902 in Tianjin, northern China. In Chinese, he was known as Li Airui. Eric lived in China until the age of five. After that his parents sent him to school in England. In 1920, Eric went to the University of Edinburgh to study science.
Sports played a large part in his life and he became the fastest runner in Scotland. He was chosen to be part of Britain's 1924 Olympic team. The games were in Paris. The 100 metre race was his best event, but it was to be held on a Sunday. Eric，a strong Christian(基督教徒), refused to run on Sundays because he believed that it should be a day of rest as the Bible(圣经) teaches.
Although many people told him to run the race, he refused. Instead he started to train for other distances. At the Olympics he won a bronze medal in the 200 metre race and then a gold medal in the 400 metre race, setting a world record.
Though then famous in Scotland, Eric still loved and remembered China. He wanted to go back to the country where he was born. In 1925, he went to China and worked as a middle school teacher in Tianjin. Then he went to Hebei Province to help the poor people there.
After the Japanese invaded(入侵) China, Eric chose to stay. He wanted to help the sick and give hope to the Chinese people. In 1943, the Japanese sent him to a prison camp(集中营) in Weifang. Even in the camp, he continued to help the old people. He also arranged games for the children, and taught them science.
In 1945, Eric was very ill. He was given a chance to leave the camp but he refused. Instead he gave this chance to a pregnant woman. The inspiring man died six months before the end of the war. Many people still remember his service to the Chinese people of that area.

A Have you ever heard of Jiuzhaigou National Park It is in Sichuan Province. It is about 450 kilometers to the north of Chengdu. I think it is one of the most beautiful natural wonders in the world. There are blue lakes, waterfalls, forests, mountains and other beautiful sights.
It is said that long long ago, the god of the mountain named Dage fell in love with the goddess Semo. He gave a mirror that was made from wind and cloud to the goddess. She was happy to get it. One day, Semo broke the mirror into 108 pieces by accident. The pieces fell down to the earth and then turned into 108 colourful lakes. The lakes are also called Haizi by the local people.
There are lots of plants and animals in the area. The natural forest covers an area of nearly 30,000 hectares（公顷）. The plants have provided a good environment for wild animals. There are many kinds of animals, for example, pandas and monkeys. They make the park more lovely.
The Jiuzhai Valley covers more than 600 square kilometres. You may know the three main valleys—Shuzheng Valley, Rize Valley and Zechawa Valley, but in fact, the sights are far more than you expect. Panda Lake is famous for the longest waterfall and the Arrow Bamboo Lake has a large area of bamboo, the favourite food of pandas.
The best time to visit Jiuzhaigou is autumn, especially September and October.
