19、l, as my hometown is a tourism city and there is no any industrial pollution, the sky is always clean and clear, and I can see the stunning night sky with countless and glittering stars and sometimes even the galaxy. But unfortunately in a metropolis like Beijing light pollution makes the night sky
20、invisible.No, I have never been in any sorts of courses about stars because actually there was no such courses in the schools or university. But fortunately my grandmother once sent me an encyclopaedia about nature in which there were loads of stories about stars, I got the most of the knowledge abo
21、ut stars from it.Yes, I believe that astronomy has always had a significant impact on our world view as it can help open our eyes, give context to our place in the cosmos and that can definitely reshape how we see the world.My favourite star constellation is Orion.

25、 and the National Day.Yes, there are so many people in my country, its really hard to say, probably most people tend to go shopping with families or friends to take advantage of the sales the shops are offering, but personally speaking, I am afraid we dont celebrate Christmas like the way in Western
26、 countries.Yes, I am fond of holidays.

27、t least seven days to go travelling and also its the best time to go around, the weather is neither too cold nor too hot, and the foliage of trees have turned yellow or red, which will give you picturesque views.Its kind of hard to say but people that I know around me tend to go shopping with famili
28、es or friends to take advantage of the sales the shops are offering, but maybe for others, they probably stay at home for resting.I believe the public holidays are rather important and there should be more of them in my country.

32、 I am a big fan of photography in my spare time. I always travel around to the stunning natural scenery with my camera. I have been in the habit of it for almost 8 years. The main factor is that I can capture the precious moment in my life, such as the graduation ceremony, or the sweet moment with m
33、y girlfriend, and also I believe the photography will cultivate my mental development.If I were to choose between the two, Ill probably go with taking photos of others because I feel that different people have different characteristic, so the photos will be distinguishing. Whereas, I barely take a s
34、elfie because it will make me embarrassed.Normally, Ill probably go with the scenery to take photos because I really enjoy the marvellous natural scenery such as the seashore, sunset and twilight, but if I take my son travelling around, Ill take photos of him to capture his happiness.I store my phot
35、os both in my computer disk and Internet for backup. And besides I have a photography website running for 4 years, keeping all my premium photos there.Yes, I used to print some photos of my kid to hang them in his room, which can help us memorise the warm moment we had together.Well, if I were to ch
36、oose between the two, Ill probably go with my own photos because they are unique and seeing a lot of comments from friends is really a pleasant thing.

40、blished so that they are not so updated. Besides, I have to go to the kiosks and spend money to buy newspapers. Its quite troublesome.Well, if I were to choose between the two, Ill probably go with reading magazines in my spare time because they are well printed and always have in-depth reporting on
41、 some particular events; whereas, you know, newspapers always report the same news as the Internet, so they now seem to be not so indispensable.Im more interested in newspapers about foreign cultures. I like to learn about their religions, customs, and the foods they eat. Occasionally, foreign news
42、interests me, too. I really like reading scientific related news.I got the habit of reading newspapers when I was in high school, 18 years old maybe.

Newsp
46、apers keep them informed about economy, political activities, science, education. Besides, it gives a true and correct picture of the society, country. Moreover, they also help us to educate people about their rights and duties.Yes, getting news from internet is a regular source now because its very
47、 convenient for me to get news from internet such as mobile phone. The news apps in my mobile phone usually send me the most urgent notifications to me so it keeps me posted1. What do you think we can learn by studying events of the past?I think we can learn a lot by studying history. Just as indivi
48、dual people learn from their mistakes, societies can learn from the mistakes made by previous governments or leaders. For example, from what Ive read in the newspapers, many economists are looking back to the time of the Great Depression, around 80 years ago, in order to understand the financial crisis that is currently affecting many countries around the world. Even if we dont always learn from mistakes, I think its fascinating to study history because it gives us an insight into who w
