In the past two years, our school had organized many activities. What impressed me most was an activity calling “Learning to Farm”. In an autumn afternoon, we went to the farm, where we learned to plant potatoes. Having been in the city for such a long time, we are so happy to go to the countryside. After we got there, we were divided into three groups, we started to work. Some students cut potatoes into pieces, some dug hole, and the others put the pieces of potatoes into the holes, put the earth back and pushed them down hard. We were all busy working as all the work was done. Though we were tired out, we felt pleased on our way back to home.
Throughout modern history, perhaps there has never been a scientist as iconic (偶像的) as Stephen Hawking.
Whether he 1. (educate) the world with his knowledge of the universe, or making fun of himself in TV shows, it is hard to imagine what the world will be like now Hawking is no longer in.
On March 14, 2018, the British physicist passed away in Cambridge. Since then, many people have expressed their condolences (哀悼) on social media, including British computer scientist Tim Berners-Lee,2. invented the World Wide Web. “We have lost a great mind and a wonderful spirit,” Berners-Lee wrote.
Hawking was an icon for many reasons, but he will be best remembered 3. his work in the field of science.
Building on German scientist Albert Einstein’s work, Hawking explained his belief that space 4. (start) with the Big Bang, and will end with black holes.
“This complete set of laws can give us the 5. (answer) to questions like ‘How did the universe begin?’” Hawking wrote in his 2010 work The Grand Design. “Where is it going and will it have an end? If so, how will it end?”
Besides his work in science, he also managed to overcome many difficulties in his personal life. While 6. (study) at Cambridge University, he was diagnosed with motor neuron (运动神经元) disease at the age of 21. His 7. (ill) left him paralyzed and he was told he only had a short time to live. However, he went on to become one of the 8. (great) minds the world has ever known.
“I felt it was unfair. Why should this happen to me?” he once recalled. “At the time, I thought my life was over and that I would never realize the potential I felt I had. But now, 50 years later, I can be satisfied with my life.”
Hawking left behind a great legacy (遗产). His signature book A Brief History of Time: From the Big Bang to Black Holes, 9. (publish) in 1988, became one of the world’s best-selling science publications. And in 2014, UK actor Eddie Redmayne played Hawking in the movie The Theory of Everything, which tells the tale of the physicist’s life.
He may no longer be with us, 10. Hawking will continue to inspire the world for generations to come. As he once said himself, “Look up at the stars and not down at your feet!”

Perhaps you have heard the expression “When in Rome, do as the Romans do”. So when you want to do business in France, you have to get to know French culture, make marketing plans, and run your business by local laws.

Also, another reason why learning French is important is that it is a great way to show every possible French business partner that you care and respect their country’s culture and language.
The first thing that you should do when meeting someone new is to shake his hand firmly and always look at the person in the eye. In social meetings with friends, kissing is common.
Use first names only after being invited to. 2. The French will sometimes introduce themselves using their surname first, followed by their first name.
Dress well. 3. Your business clothing is a reflection of your success and social status. Always try to be tasteful and stylish. Women are advised to dress simply but elegantly. Wearing make-up is practiced widely by businesswomen.
