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。

    People today take lots of photos. Some photographs are really memorable. They either capture important events, such as birthday parties or weddings, show beautiful places. Years later, people may look at these special photos to remember  past.

    However, how did people record important moments without cameras long ago? Some people told  (story) about old times, and others wrote down  they remembered. There were also a lot of people  (make) special drawings to help them recall important moments. Among those people were Native Americans of the Lakota tribe.

    Every year, Lakota leaders decided which event was most important. A Lakota  (art) was then asked to draw a special picture of that event. Because each year's picture was decided on during the winter, the drawings became  (know) as winter counts.

    For a long time, winter counts were drawn on animal skins. Later, the drawings  (do) on paper. The pictures told the history of the tribe. Each year, the newest winter count was added  the Lakota collection of pictures from  (early) times. That helped people keep track of the years. Today, winter counts are important records of the Lakota's past.

    “Why do we have to learn about these useless things?” This is what teachers have heard students complain about most {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (common). In such cases, we may tell the students such {#blank#}2{#/blank#} story:

    One night, a group of herdsmen(牧民)were about to leave the campsite when there appeared a flash of bright light. They knew that God would be there, so they looked forward to {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(get) wishes from God. God {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(begin)to speak: “You have to collect along the way a number of stones. Tomorrow night, you may be very happy, but you may be very regretful.” Then God disappeared.

    The herdsmen were very {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(disappoint), because they would look forward to God to bring them untold wealth or treasure, but they did not expect that God had told them to do all these meaningful things. However, in any case, after all, that was God's will. Although there {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (be) some dissatisfaction, they were still picking over some stones. {#blank#}7{#/blank#} this way, they took a day. When night fell, they stopped. All of a sudden, they found that all the stones they picked had turned into {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (diamond). They were happy, {#blank#}9{#/blank#} at the same time, they felt very sorry, and they regretted that they had not collected more stones.

    Now we feel that knowledge is as useless as stones, {#blank#}10{#/blank#} may become endless wealth in the future.

    When Joe was about to start school, all signs pointed to success. Yet things turned out  {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(be) quite disappointing. The fourth grade even found him at the bottom of the class. Joe struggled day and night, but  {#blank#}2{#/blank#}made him upset was that it did not work—until one stormy afternoon.

    On that afternoon, the math teacher was introducing difficult concepts  {#blank#}3{#/blank#}dark clouds covered the sky, and the storm set in. Although she tried to make the kids concentrate, the thunder won the battle for their attention. No one grasped the concepts. Except for Joe. He understood{#blank#}4{#/blank#} and answered all the questions correctly. The teacher patted him on the back and told him to go around to the others and explain how he had managed it. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(encourage) by his newfound success, Joe moved quickly throughout the room. Soon math time  {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(follow) by the time for art. All children  {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(natural) drew dark pictures on such a day. Except for Joe.

    Since then, Joe started to work even  {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(hard) than before. His math teacher was always curious about the  {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(amaze) change: Why had that stormy day changed Joe?

    At the graduation ceremony, Joe presented the teacher with his most familiar  {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(possess) — the picture of bright yellow sun. On the picture Joe had written: This is the day I woke up to my brightness.

Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.

    The way we tell stories has naturally changed since Aristotle defined the rules of tragedy about 2,500 years ago. According to him, the role of storytelling is to imitate life and make us feel emotions. And that's exactly what storytelling as we know it has done very well since then. But there is an aspect of life {#blank#}1{#/blank#} storytelling could never really reproduce. It is the notion of choices.

    Choices are a very important part of our lives. We as individuals {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (define) by the choices we make. As an interactive writer, {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (fascinate) with the idea of recreating this notion of choices in fiction, I have tried to put the audience in the shoes of the main characters. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (explore) a way to achieve this is what I did in the past 20 years of my life.

    So do you have an idea of {#blank#}5{#/blank#} my work is about as an interactive writer? Where a writer needs to deal with time and space, as an interactive writer, I need to deal with time, space and possibilities. I need to think about all the possibilities {#blank#}6{#/blank#} the characters could encounter different people and different things in a given scene and try to imagine everything that {#blank#}7{#/blank#} happen.

    The interactive writer's experience is very unique, {#blank#}8{#/blank#} it is the result of the cooperation between a writer creating this narrative landscape and the player making his own decisions, telling his own story and becoming the cowriter but also the coactor and the codirector of the story. Interactive storytelling is a revolution in the way we tell stories.
