China's longest river，the Yangtze，at 9：15 am Wednesday.The moon's shadow blocked out the sun，leaving only the solar corona visible in west China's Chongqing Municipality and Guang'an City in neighboring Sichuan Province.The cities turned off many street lights to allow the public to better observe the total eclipse，which lasted about four minutes.‎ The July 22 eclipse is the longest total solar eclipse of the 21st century.It is expected to pass across China from Tibet to the coastal city of Shanghai，where 300 million people live.Millions of eclipse－watchers thronged to the banks of the Yellow and Yangtze rivers early Wednesday to observe the spectacle.However，the weather in many Chinese cities along the full solar eclipse path is not favorable for observing the phenomenon，according to the China Meteorological Administration's forecast at 8 am.‎ Zhu Jin，head of the Beijing Astronomical Observatory，said although overcast conditions blocked the view along the lower stream of Yangtze，the shadow of the moon was visible moving behind the clouds.The full solar blackout could be seen at 9：30 am from an observatory site in Anji，east China's Zhejiang Province，a site chosen by Jay Pasachoff，head of the Solar Eclipse Working Group of the International Astronomical Union (IAU)，and more 200 astronomers from more than 20 countries.“The weather is clear enough to observe the complete duration of the solar eclipse here in Anji.The forecast of the time of the eclipse proved to be accurate，” said Zhang Hongqi，chief researcher of the National Astronomical Observatories.‎ It was raining in Shanghai，when the eclipse occurred at 9：35 am.The city put extra police on streets，and more than 30 police vessels patrolled the coast.Only street lamps were left on，as the city turned off all landscape lighting to allow people to watch the solar eclipse.‎ ‎5．The best place to observe the full solar blackout at 9：30 am could be in ________.‎ A．Chongqing B．Sichuan C．Zhejiang

according to a survey by the Chinese Hospital Association (CHA)．‎ The annual average number of assaults (攻击) on doctors per hospital increased from 20.6 assaults in 2008 to 27.3 in 2012. The survey was conducted among staff and patients at 316 hospitals nationwide from December 2012 to July 2013. Unsatisfactory treatment, social conflicts, and unbalanced demand and supply of medical resources result in the rise in violence.‎ In 2012, seven people were killed and 28 injured in the 11 violent patient－doctor conflicts. These conflicts occurred in eight provinces or regions, including Beijing and Heilongjiang. For instance, a man attacked employees at a local hospital in the city of Hefei in east China's Anhui Province, killing a head nurse and injuring four other people. Nearly 40 percent of surveyed medical staff said they plan to give up the profession due to the increase in violence.‎ ‎【写作内容】　‎ ‎1．以约30个词概括上文的主要内容；‎ ‎2．以约120个词就“医患关系”谈谈你的看法，内容包括：‎ ‎(1) 回顾一次你去看病的情况；‎ ‎(2) 你认为医患关系紧张的原因是什么；‎ ‎(3) 就如何改善医患关系提一些建议。‎ ‎【写作要求】　‎ ‎1．作文中可以使用亲身经历或虚构的故事，也可以参照阅读材料的内容，但不得直接引用原文中的句子；‎ ‎2．作文中不能出现真实姓名和学校名称。‎ ‎【评分标准】　‎ 概括准确，语言规范，内容合适，篇章连贯。‎ ‎_________________________________________________________________‎ ‎_________________________________________________________________‎ ‎_________________________________________________________________‎ ‎_________________________________________________________________‎ ‎【参考范文】　‎ The author tells us something about his class meeting whose topic is “the equality between men and women”. Opinions among his classmates vary greatly. Some think men and women enjoy equality while others don't.‎ We can't deny that with the development of society and feminism movement, women have gradually gained equal recognition. As for most cases around me, women are sharing equal rights with men. You see, our women teachers get the same pay as men. Besides, they obtain high family position through economic independence. Most share family and work responsibilities with men, and prove themselves to be excellent. Girl students are treated equally and do a good job not only in arts but in science.‎ Take Daisy as an example. Last year, she got the same right as boy students to run for the chairman of the Students' Union. After some fierce but equal competitions, she showed her outstanding skill in management and finally obtained the position.‎ Indeed, women's social status has been increasingly growing, which I think represents the social progress. Moreover, to build a harmonious society, people come to realize sex equality is crucial. Of course, we have to admit that absolute equality doesn't exist for various reasons. However, we should try our best to achieve it.‎
