A man was visiting a rich person's house. As he went along the road, he saw {#blank#}1{#/blank#}box of apples at the side of the road. He said: "I do not want to eat those{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(apple). The rich man will give {#blank#}3{#/blank#}some nice food to eat." Then he took the apples and threw them away into the dust（尘土）. He went on and came to a river. The river got so high, and he could {#blank#}4{#/blank#}get through it.

    He{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(wait) for some time and then he said: "I cannot go {#blank#}6{#/blank#}the rich man's house today, because I cannot get over the river."

    He{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(start) to go home. He had eaten no food that day. He began to want something to eat {#blank#}8{#/blank#}he was really hungry. He came to the apples, and he was happy{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(take) them out of the dust and eat them.

    {#blank#}10{#/blank#}throw good things away. You may be happy to have them later.

    Water is very important to living things. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(with)water, there can be no life {#blank#}2{#/blank#}the Earth. All {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(plant)and animals need water. Man also needs water. We need water {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(drink）, to cook food and to clean {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(us). Water is needed in farms, factories, offices, schools {#blank#}6{#/blank#}families.

    Water is found in seas, rivers and lakes. It can be found everywhere {#blank#}7{#/blank#} the world, {#blank#}8{#/blank#} it can also be found in the air. We cannot see or feel the water when it is part of the air. Clouds are also {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(make)of water. They are little drops of water. When water {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(freeze), it becomes ice. So ice is also water.
