According to a recent report, some once-hot majors like English, Computer and Law for Chinese students entering college have now fallen out of favor. The reason is that more graduates studying in those fields end up 1 .
This year, a sample of 500,000 college 2 from 2009 were surveyed and 220,000 questionnaires were received back for the 2010 report. Among the 3
majors, Law graduates had the most difficulty finding jobs, with the 4
unemployment rate(比率) of 17.7% of all the majors in 2009. English majors had the highest 5 of the unemployed for three years, with 15,700 graduates still out of work.
“Such majors as Computer, English and Law were the most 6 ones for Beijing students entering universities in 2005, but now these graduates are in a tight corner,” said Ba ran, a senior counselor（顾问）at a well-known company. Ba said that the expansion（扩大）of college enrollment（注册）for those hot majors five years ago has 7 an over-supply in the market, making it harder for those graduates to find jobs.
On the other side, engineering graduates majoring in Geological Engineering, Ship and Marine Engineering are 8 most in the job market. Engineering majors are more practical in professional skills and work experience, which are favored by many 9 . The graduates are thus armed with a competitive 10 in the cruel job market.
The report 11 a system should be set up against majors with a high risk of 12 . Undergraduates studying Law or English are encouraged to change their 13 or obtain a second degree. For some colleges and provinces with 14 employment rates, the report advised a（n） 15 in enrollment numbers or even a temporary (暂时的) stop in enrolling students.

A very little boy was spending his Saturday morning playing in his sandbox. He had with him a plastic pail (桶) and a shiny, red plastic shovel (铲). In the 36 of creating roads and tunnels in the sand, he 37 a large rock in the middle of the sandbox.
The boy dug around the rock, 38 to move it off the dirt. At first, he wanted to carry it out of the sandbox with his hands; however, it was too heavy. Later, with much 39 , he pushed the rock across the sandbox by 40 his hands. When the boy got the rock to the 41 of the sandbox, he found that he couldn’t roll it up and 42 the little wall. 43 , the little boy pushed, but every time he thought he had made some 44 , the rock tipped (翻滚) and then fell back into the sandbox. The little boy pushed and pushed, but his only 45 was to have the rock roll back.
Finally he 46 tears. All this time the boy’s father watched from his living room window 47 the drama was unfolded. The moment the tears fell, a large 48 appeared across the sandbox. It was the boy’s father. Gently but 49 , he said, “Son, why didn’t you use all the strength that you had?”
Defeated, the boy 50 back, “I did! I did! I used all the strength that I had!”
“No, you didn’t. You didn’t ask me for help.” The father 51 down, picked up the rock and dropped it off the sandbox.

Nine 1700yearold brick tombs have been discovered in northwest China’s Xinjiang. Experts say that they can 1 valuable clues for the research of exchanges(交换；交流) between the central Chinese government at that time and ___2 Western Regions.
It is the 3 time ancient tombs with typical characteristics of China's
main Han nationality have been found in the Uygur ethnic region(自治区)．
4 from Beijing，Shanxi and Xinjiang concluded that the tombs were ___5___ between the middle and late third century and fourth century.
The tombs were unearthed during the 6 of a road earlier this year in Kuqa county,740 km from Xinjiang's capital Urumqi and part of the 7 Qiuci State. Qiuci State，which 8 between the second century BC and 860 AD，was one of the 36 states in the Western Regions.
The tombs would help archaeologists with research into the political，economic and cultural 9 between the Central Plains government and states in the west，and on the cultural 10 of the Central Plains on the Western Regions.
Archaeologists from the Xinjiang institute have dug nine tombs since August 22，___11 bodies of more than 30 people，some ancient 12 and more than 60 pottery(陶器)jars. It is thought there are another three tombs to be 13 .
The people buried in the tombs were 14 either people from the western regions deeply influenced by the Han culture or the Han residents(居民)in the ___15 .
Those days life was so hard that I finally wished that I could just be “left alone”.
The thought of going somewhere by myself would give me so much 1 . but then I’d remember when I was alone. Not that 2 _ left me. I was alone by myself in crowded places. It was the 3 that I built around me that would not 4 the outside in or the inside out.
When I was a child, I would play this silly 5 . It was always 6 _ because a place in a corner or under a table would do. My favorite place was simply to pull a blanket over my head. I would lie there and 7 , “Right now no one in the world knows where I am!” That thought was so 8 .
If you knew me well enough this wouldn’t 9 you…I still do it at 60. It drives my dogs crazy, because they find me and start digging at the blanket until they find a way in. All three of them 10 me. That thought is so satisfying, too.
I want you to know that at times we all wish that we could be left _11 . The fact that you can be alone with yourself and enjoy it shows clearly who you are. Imagine for a 12 being locked in a room with someone you 13 . It would be torture. So, if you find peace with being with yourself, that is good. However, if you are trying to build a wall so no one can ever 14 , it can’t happen.
The light of love can find a 15 through the tiniest cracks. You can pull the covers over your head and love will find you.

As I got up today, I smelt fresh coffee. I woke up to 36 a cup of it with some biscuits on my bedside table. This reminded me of 37 , the old school and college days, when mom used to wake me up by serving a 38 cup of coffee. The taste is still so 39 in my memories.
A 40 thought hit me, “I was in bed, so who prepared this coffee for me? Is it a dream?”
I pinched（掐）myself, ouch… that hurt, which meant I was not 41 . I walked out of the room with the cup of coffee, 42 my roommate. I asked him whether he prepared that for me, and the answer was YES.
I was relaxed 43 somehow my heart wanted him to say NO, because I wanted to be in a 44 that my mom prepared it for me. The whole 45 reminded me of mom and I 46 her at that moment.
On my way to my office, I was thinking about those days when mom used to cook my 47 meal. I could not 48 any single day when I slept without food. But now, I no longer 49 the food mom cooked.
This very thought 50 tears to my eyes and I decided to call up mom. I reached the office and gave her a call.
The first thing she asked was, “Is everything all right?” I was 51 . And I thought, “How the time has 52 ”.
When I was with her, I used to call her after every hour when I was out with my friends. In those days she 53 asked me what was wrong, as she knew that it was my habit. My call at this point of the day to her meant that I was in 54 .
Time has changed, she is still the same, and it is 55 who have changed.
