The two also like sharing their travel stories on Facebook. ‎ ‎“We choose a tandem bicycle because it makes it　3　to communicate with each other about interesting people and things we come across during the journey.　4　, bicycling is healthier. And it's a cheaper and more environment-friendly way of traveling than　5　cars, motors and so on,”the couple said. ‎ As for the other　6　of their journey, the two said they wanted to get people's good ideas on topics such as health, economy(经济)and politics. When they were asked 　7　they chose to visit China,they said it was because they often talked about its long history and beauty and how much of the country is competitive(有竞争力的)in the world. ‎ ‎“We know China is a country with a large population and will be the 　8　of the economy around the world in the future.

He was interested in different things. He liked doing things in a way that he thought to be clever. But sometimes he made wrong choices.‎ One day, his father gave him some　1　and asked him to buy some goldfish. When he got to the market, he found that the killifish looked like small goldfish, and they were much　2　. So he bought some killifish and kept the rest of the money for himself. ‎ When he got home, his father　3　what Andrew did at once. He put the fish in the tank(鱼缸)without　4　anything at first.

She always wanted to be a professional 　5　 when she grows up. 　6　, her parents don't want her to practice singing because they think their daughter should study hard to get good 　7　 and go to a good university. “She needs to spend more time 　8　 her homework because it's 　9　 to become a professional singing star,”says her father. But Liu Ying really 　10　.“I know my parents 　11　 me. And they hope that I will have a better life in the future. But I am 　12　 singing. I should be allowed to make my own decision. Only then will I have a chance to 　13　 my dream,”says Liu Ying. ‎ Doctors say lots of pressure 　14　 bad for children's development. Society should pay more attention to the health of teenagers. Parents have to own the 　15　 attitude(态度)towards the students' development.
