2.The day for the great balloon competition finally arrived.Every insect in the garden had been (21)B hard,and now they were preparing to begin their routines.The balloon competitions were always something really special.Each time,the flying insects were favourite (22)Cto win,because they could seize the balloon strings and fly off in all directions,creating all sorts of (23)Ain the air.(24)D,on this occasion there were some rather unusual insects taking part:a group of ants.Of course,(25)D expected that they could do anything special.They were so light that no ant had ever(26)Ato take part,but it was quite impressive to see all the ants all (27)C organized and prepared.
So the competition began,and the(28)B insects took their turns,performing beautiful movements with the balloons.As always,the butterflies left everyone(29)Awith their twist and turns,and their wonderful colours.When it was time for the ants to perform,it seemed like the competition had already been decided.
For the(30)A time in living memory,the ants shared just one balloon between them,and one by one they climbed up the balloon string,(31)B a thin black thread of ants.When all the string was covered,the last ant climbed(32)B his teammates to reach the balloon.(33)Ahe got there,he climbed onto the top of the balloon.
This strange(34)Cattracted everyone's curiosity,and they were just about to witness the most important (35)D:the ant opened his jaws as wide as he could…and then he made a violent movement at the balloon with all his strength!
The result was powerful!The balloon began blowing out its air,flying(36)B about,here and there,doing a thousand turns and spins,while the ants made all kinds of beautiful shapes out of the string.
Of course,that acrobatic(杂技般的) flight(37)A with quite a hard landing,but it didn't (38)C.The creativity and teamwork of the ant performance was so(39)Bthat the crowd didn't even have to vote for there to be a winner.
From then on,in that garden,everyone understood how much could be achieved by working (40)D.In the years to come,the balloon competitions were full of displays carried out by teams,and they put on some wonderful routines; something those individual insects could never have achieved on their own.

Blurring(模糊)the lines between social and professional relationships can(41)F on the level of care offered and prevent patients from being honest about important side effects.Doctors should avoid(42)K patients as friends on Facebook,and they should not hug or allow patients to call them by their first names,regulators have warned.
It comes as a survey of 338 oncologists(肿瘤医师)under the age of 40,(43)I in The Lancet Oncology,found 59per cent said they found it difficult to tell the truth to those patients they liked.Sixty per cent of respondents said if doctors felt too close to their patients,it could prevent them from making(44)B decisions about a person's care.
Lesley Fallow field,of Brighton and Sussex Medical School,said:"Oncology is a specialty that can be enormously (45)D but is filled with challenges.Young oncologists have to master dealing with anxious patients who are facing a life-threatening disease;(46)A the true prediction; discussing the(47)C of modern treatments; and explaining the(48)J of some drugs and the side-effects of treatment."
But she said for those doctors who have entered the profession in the age of the‘cyber world',are more likely to fall(49)E to breaking the professional boundaries with patients.
