周冬雨因为在《少年的你》中出色的表演，在五月六日获得了香港电影节的最佳女演员奖， 你对此了解吗？根据上下文，补全短文，每空一词。
If you like seeing movies, perhaps you may hear about Zhou Dongyu. Zhou Dongyu, 28,1. the best actress award for her role in the movie Better Days at the 39th Hong Kong Film Awards on2.6th. Since she also took home the same prize at the Golden Horse Awards in 2016, she has become the first post-90s Chinese actress to be the winner at both events. Better Days is about two teenagers who support 3.other in difficult times. Zhou plays a high school student 4.is bullied ( 欺凌 ). The movie earned another seven awards, 5.best film and best director. Now you can enjoy this movie online for free.
If you could choose, would you rather be a genius (天才) or a common person? This was the question our teacher asked us after we watched a movie called Gifted. In the movie, a girl named Mary shows amazing mathematical talent at the age of 7 and feels bored school. Her uncle Frank thinks that she should stay in her normal school. However, Mary's grandmother Evelyn believes that Mary is a genius who should be taught specially in mathematics.
The reason for their argument comes from Frank's sister. She too was a promising mathematician, but killed herself when Mary was six months old. She suffered from Evelyn's push throughout her life. Frank doesn't want the same thing to happen to Mary. After many talks and fights, Mary goes to stay with Frank and takes college-level courses while playing with kids her own age.
The story of this movie is simple, but the theme it ties to express is very controversial (有争议的). We can't say that Evelyn-style education is wrong. It can help gifted children to show their potential (潜力) the most. But a natural gift can sometimes be a kind of stress, as it can make children feel too different from kids their own age. Too much attention to their talent can make them feel lonely in the society and lead to mental health problems. Many historical geniuses, including English mathematician Sir Isaac Newton and English writer Virginia Woolf, had similar problems. I'm glad that by the end of the movie, Mary finds a way to balance her talent and her childhood.

A Farewell Song
No dust is raised on the road wet with morning rain; 1.
I invite you to drink a cup of wine again;
West of the sunny pass no more friends will be seen. (Translated by Xu Yuanchong)
Time flies and you will soon be finished with junior high school.2.This feeling was shared more than 1,000 years ago, when the Tang Dynasty poet Wang Wei (701-761) had to say goodbye to his friend.
3.After the rain, the road is clean and free of dust, and the willows (柳树) by the hotel are fresh and green. On this morning, Wang has to say goodbye to his friend Yuan Er, who would leave for a faraway place called Anxi in today's Xinjiang.
The last two lines are the most well-known.4.Although most cities in China were prosperous (繁华的) during the Tang Dynasty (618-907), the western areas were quite desolate (荒凉的).
The journey to the west would be full of hardship, Wang thought. So when Wang says “I invite you to drink a cup of wine again,” he is pouring his care and good wishes into the cup as well.5. Everyone wishes good luck before goodbye so the poem is really worth reading again and again.
A.A Farewell Song begins with a lovely morning scene.
B.The willows by the hotel look so fresh and green.
C.The poet invites Yuan to drink wine because he knows that life in Anxi will be tough.
D.It might be a little sad to say goodbye to your teachers and classmates.
E.This sincere love for his friend made this poem popular back then and it remains so today.
Dear Carol,
How are you? I know it's been months since I wrote you. Since I'm at college, I seem to spend a lot of time reading, and sometimes I'm too tired to write letters. The good news is that I will graduate this July.
It was great to hear that you went on that trip to Singapore. It was great! I've never been to an Asian country. Have you heard anything from that artist you met there? He sounded fun.
My life has not been very exciting, but I did do one thing interesting last week. I went to a Lenine concert with some friends. We got the cheapest seats right at the top, but the acoustics(音效) were really good, so being far away didn't matter. The audience(观众) were a mixture of young people and old fans of the great singer.
Lenine is a Brazilian singer, about 25 years old, with very long hair. His music is a cross between rock and New Age. He does a lot of songs about environmental problems in Brazil, So he uses instruments that sound just like birds singing in the rainforests. He did some solo(独唱) songs and others with his group. He has a fantastic voice. The music was great, but I didn't think much of the lighting, and the setting was too formal for his kind of music.
Well, I must go now, as I have to hand in a paper tomorrow, and I haven't even started it yet!
Best wishes!
Vanessa

Is it possible for animals to raise a human child? There are many stories that suggest it is possible. Not just wolves and dogs, but also sheep, bears and even monkeys are able to look after human children, Daily Mail reported.
There is the case of Ivan Mishukov, a 6-year-old boy from Moscow. Police found him living with dogs in the city's streets in 1998. There, he had been begging for two years. Ivan found food to feed the dogs. And in return, the dogs kept him warm and protected him while he slept. When he was saved, he could hardly speak. Luckily, he later joined the army and lived like a normal adult.
But not all children who are raised by animals can adapt to human society. In 1848, British soldier Colonel William Sleeman found a little boy living with many wolves in India. He took him to a village, taking care of him and trying to teach him to speak. But nothing worked. The boy still behaved like a wolf, eating raw (生的) meat and refusing to wear clothes, no matter how cold the weather was. About two years later, he got very sick and passed away.
Some animals are believed to have strong maternal instincts (母性本能), which guide them to care for young animals, even those of other species(物种). However, people need to know that children raised by animals may experience long-term negative effects when they enter human society, according to Daily Mail.
