閱讀下列文章，文中有五處空白，文后方框中有五個句子，請把它們分別放回到文中原來的位置上，使文章完整、連貫。

Everyone feels tired at one time or another. The office worker feels tired after a hard day at work. The sportsman feels tired after hours of physical training.

【1】 The explanation is that when you exercise a muscle in your body over and over again, something known as fatigue toxins (疲勞毒素) is produced. The blood system then carries these toxins throughout the body. In the end, not only does that muscle feel tired but the whole body feels tired as well.

【2】 Sleeping is one of the best ways to fully recharge (使恢復(fù)精力) your tired body. Most importantly, the damage caused by tired muscles is slowly being repaired when we sleep.

【3】 Another way to get over fatigue is by doing some activities that you enjoy. For example, after a hard day’s work, the office worker may want to go for a relaxing walk. After a long tiring day at school, the student prefers jogging to resting at home.

【4】 When your body is tired, one way of curing tiredness is by improving the body’s blood circulation.

【5】 When we take part in an activity, our blood circulation is improved.

【1】Jim’s (prounce) is poor. We can’t understand him.

【2】M the new words is a good way to improve our English.

【3】My grandfather has been (死亡) for several years, I miss him a lot.

【4】Because of his talent in piano, all of the students a him.

【5】Linda’s father is a boss. He often goes out to other countries on b .

Susie and I are good 【1】(朋友) and we study in the same school but 【2】(不同的) classes. We usually go 【3】(家) together after school, unless I have my volleyball practice. Both of 【4】(我們) have many 【5】(愛好) in common. We enjoy swimming, reading and 【6】(聽) to music. On Saturdays, we will go for a walk in the park or go to the library.

Last Sunday we 【7】(去) to a famous concert at the Victoria Concert Hall. Two girls sat 【8】(在…后面) us. They began to talk 【9】(大聲地) when the concert started. Even we could not hear the music clearly. The old man beside us turned around and looked at them angrily. They stopped talking after that. Anyway I enjoyed 【10】(我自己) a lot.

Then you began to cry to make sounds you heard. And step by step you were able to make the right sound for one thing.

On that day you came to understand the secret of the language. The secret is that a certain sound means a certain thing. One sound might be as good as another. But it is not as good as a word unless everyone agrees on its meaning. Only when a group of people use the same set of sounds of things, they can understand each other, so these people have a language.

After you found the secret of language, you learned words. Some of the words meant things, such as books, chairs and shops. Some of the words meant actions such as go and swim. And other words describe things such as good or dirty. Soon you learn to put words together to express one’s idea, such as “I want to go out and play with my friends.” This is language. By the way of language people can communicate. So we say languages mean communication.

Ann Makosinski was the only Canadian among the four winners at Google's international science competition. Thousands of young scientists from around the world took part in the competition.

Winning the science and technology competition was "a surprise". Ann said, "I think it will have a great influence on my future."

Ann thanked her family for encouraging her interest in science and said that her first toy was a box of transistors(晶體管).

The ideas for the invention came from seeing unwanted batteries and her friend's experience. When Ann visited a friend in the Philippines, she saw the friend couldn't study when it became dark because there was no electricity or light. She saw the need for a flashlight that has no batteries - Hollow Flashlight.

In her project, Ann wrote "I made two flashlights that do not use any batteries or harmful materials. They do not create any noise and will always work. The flashlight needs at least a 5℃ temperature difference between the holder's body and the environment around to produce light."

A video of Ann explaining how she created the flashlight has been watched more than 1.4 million times on the Internet.

Though Ann was successful, she has not made a decision about her career path. Ann hope that she can find a way to join her love of film and science together.

The four winners were chosen from 15 final competitors from eight countries. The competition attracted thousands of students in 120 countries.
