Years ago, all my parents were involved in a serious car accident. Uncle Bob takes on the role as a father to me. I lived with them during that period. He allowed me to stay with him though his home was not really bigger. He showed his care and love for me with paying attention to my health, education and which I needed at that time. I really appreciated a time he spent with me. We were used to go on trips together. We would just spend days with either playing our guitars or read our favorite car magazines. I always felt gratefully towards him. He was like a father figure who would always give me encouragement.
阅读下面材料，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
“Add Oil” is the literal English translation of the Chinese phrase “Jiāyóu” (Cantonese “Ga Yau”), which is used to express encouragement, 1. (excite), or support to others. It’s used in sporting events 2. (encourage) a friend, and in many other conversations!
“Add Oil” has now been added 3. the Oxford English Dictionary. The Oxford English Dictionary entry describes the phrase as “chiefly Hong Kong English”, and notes its4. (early) appearance in a book published back in 1964.
Some people believe that the phrase 5. (invent) at the Macau Grand Prix (澳门汽车大奖赛) during the 1960s, where the crowd would shout at the pit teams (加油团队) to “Add Oil!” to the racing cars. The meaning of the Chinese characters is to add (jiā) oil (yóu), which implies 6.(add) oil/fuel to an engine to fire 7. up.
In places such as Hong Kong, where a mixture of Chinese and English is 8. (common) used among friends, the English phrase often replaces the Chinese characters, and this is the reason 9. the phrase has been added to the dictionary.
The latest addition to Oxford English Dictionary is by no means a stand-alone. Other Chinese phrases that 10. (enter) everyday English include “long time no see” and “no can do”.

Most of us in China are used to paying for everything with our phones. 1. At least, this was the case for Lim Swee Say from Singapore, who found his first experience with Chinese payment methods quite impressive. Lim was waiting in line to buy nuts at a street stall (货摊) in Shanghai and saw other customers show their phones and take the nuts without giving cash. 2. It seems that Singapore falls behind in mobile payments. Some Chinese tourists find it inconvenient when they have to use cash in Singapore.
3. According to Xinhua News Agency, many countries now accept mobile payment services for Chinese tourists, with WeChat Pay covered in 13 overseas countries and regions and Alipay over 200. It’s now common to see the familiar green or blue logos in tourist destinations around the world, from a tiny shop in the Scottish Highlands to a huge department store in New York.
Mobile payments are now a normal part of life in China, and the trend is sweeping other nations. According to Forrester Research, in America, mobile payments rose by 37 per cent in 2016. 4.
This may be partly because western mobile payment services require businesses to install expensive equipment before customers can use them. 5.

B. Foreign tourists don’t like to pay with their mobile phones.
C. But in China, all it takes is a QR code (二维码) and a phone.
D. Soon after, he realized that the customers were using WeChat Pay.
E. Still, Chinese mobile payments were nearly 50 times greater than those in the US.
F. But for foreign visitors who aren’t familiar with this method, it may seem strange.
G. The popularity of Chinese mobile payments has pushed some foreign companies to accept them.
A PG-13 rating is a stricter warning by the Rating Board to parents to determine whether their children under age 13 should view the film. A PG-13 film may go beyond the PG rating in theme, violence, nudity (裸露), language, adult activities or other elements, but does not reach the restricted R category.
The theme of the film by itself will not result in a rating greater than PG-13, although activities shown in the film related to a mature theme may result in a restricted rating for the film. Any drug use will initially require at least a PG-13 rating. More than brief nudity will require at least a PG-13 rating, but such nudity in PG-13 rated film generally will not be sexually oriented. There may be violence scene in a PG-13 movie, but generally not both realistic and extreme or persistent violence.
A single use of one of the rude words in a film, though only as an expletive (感叹语), initially requires at least a PG-13 rating. More than one such bad word requires an R rating, as must even one of those words used in a sexual context. The Rating Board nevertheless may rate such a film PG-13 if, based on a special vote by a two-thirds majority, the Raters feel that most American parents would believe that a PG-13 rating is appropriate because of the context or manner in which the words are used or because the use of those words in the film is easily neglected.
