1、阅读下面的短文,将划线部分译成英文或中文。
Chinese writing is one of the world's greatest writing systems(系统). It is more widely in use than alphabetic(字母的)writing systems. 60 世界上多于一半的书是用中文写的, including historical writings and novels, along with writings on government and law.
At the beginning, written Chinese was a picture-based 1anguage. It dates back(追溯)several thousand years to the use of animal bones and shells on which symbols were carved(刻) by ancient Chinese people. 61. Some of the ancient symbols can still be seen in today's hanzi.
62.By the Shang Dynasty, these symbols had become a well-developed writing system. Over the years, the system developed into different forms, as it was a time when people were divided geographically, leading to different dialects(方言) and characters. This, however, changed under Emperor Qishihuang of the Qin Dynasty.
Emperor Qinshihuang united(统一)the seven major states into one country where the Chinese writing system began to develop in one direction. 63.这个系统在统一中国人民和文化方面起着重要的作用。Even today, no matter where Chinese people live or what dialect they speak,they can all still communicate in writing.
Today, Chinese writing system is still an important part of Chinese culture. As China plays a great role in the world, an increasing number of international students are beginning to appreciate(欣赏) China's culture through this amazing language. 64. Written Chinese spreads Chinese culture wherever it goes.

26、Amos Dudley, a 24-year-old boy who studies digital design at New Jersey University of Technology, felt ashamed about his teeth. But being a student, Dudley didn’t have the money to get braces(牙箍). So, he decided to
3-D print his own and marked down the DIY project in a recent blog post. His braces totaled less than $60, and after wearing them for 16 weeks, his teeth are also getting straighter.
Months ago, he mentioned on his blog that he avoided smiling for a while because he was unhappy with his teeth.
However, clear braces can get pricey, costing up to $8,000. But after studying some images of these expensive clear braces, something comes up on him--they looked like that one which can come from a 3-D printer.
So he decided to hit up his school’s 3-D printing equipment and scanned and printed models of his teeth. He
then made non-harmful plastic molds (模子) around them to make 12 sets of braces.
Dudley, who does not recommend attempting any of this at home said that he didn’t ask a dentist for his project. But the student did get information from journal articles and textbooks. And though this was a perfectly
friendly choice to buy braces. He didn’t accept the project just to save money--he was also up for the challenge. “When I realized that I could do something that was a little bit special, while proving my skills as a designer
and a maker, and fixing something that was making me self-conscious for actually free, I felt it was more than worth the risk.” he said.

28、根据短文内容及首字母提示,填写所缺单词,使短文意思完整。每空限填一词。
People are playing video games everywhere these days, whether they’re riding a bus or sitting in a restaurant. Some of them e【1】 these games so much that they can’t put them down.
But is this a healthy habit? The World Health Organization (WHO) doesn’t t【2】 so. In June, it named “gaming disorder (障碍)” as a mental disorder in its International Classification of Diseases, CNN reported.
“Gaming disorder” refers to persistent (持续的) or recurrent (反复出现的) video-gaming behavior, whether online or offline. Of course, not everyone who plays video games has this disorder. It has three m【3】 characteristics (特征).
The first sign is when the player loses c【4】 over his or her gaming habits. The second is when playing games becomes more important than other a【5】 for the player. The third is when the condition leads to serious problems in the player’s personal and family life.
Many experts have welcomed the decision. It is believed that new ways to t【6】 this disorder will appear following the WHO classification.
In fact, some countries are already working to s【7】 this problem. South Korea has introduced a law banning (禁止) children under 16 from playing online games between midnight and 6 am, USA Today reported. Chinese tech company Tencent is also setting limits (限制) on the a【8】 of time that teenagers can play its games. Children between 12 and 18 years old can only play two hours per day.
If you have “gaming disorder", you should-ask for professional medical help. But you can Use delayed gratification (延迟满足)to d【9】 with it, if your condition is not that serious, the National Institute Of Education Sciences pointed that out.
For example, if you tell yourself not to play any video games on weekdays, you can allow yourself to play for three hours during the weekend. Or if you really want to play them after school, you can tell yourself that you cannot do so u【10】 you have finished your homework.

Today, I want to be a Santa for them.” He smiled. “Well, it's too_______for you to be a Santa. It is still June.” I said. He_______at me and walked a few steps. It seemed he wanted to say something but he left without a word._______, we met again at the bread counter. “So these bread and cakes are also for the street dogs, Mr. Santa.” He smiled, “Yes. These are also for them and I love to be Mr. Santa in June. Santa is a symbol of surprises and_______.He comes in December as we_______him around Christmas. But in real life there is a Santa in each one of us that shines through our personality at some point of time. Maybe when you offered me a trolley, there was a_______Santa in you. When we offer food to a hungry man or a(n)_______to someone caught in the rain, we are being Santa there.”
