Wang Damin is {#blank#}1{#/blank#} fisherman. Although he is over 65, he is very {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(health) and still enjoys working.

    Damin uses cormorants {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (catch) fish. Cormorants are large black birds. They are good {#blank#}4{#/blank#} catching fish because they can swim well. They can dive {#blank#}5{#/blank#} and stay under the water for up to two minutes.

    Damin usually sets off in the late afternoon and gets the cormorants ready for work. He uses several ways to attract fish. The cormorants bring the fish back to the boat. The fish are then taken and {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (throw) into a big basket by Damin. No nets {#blank#}7{#/blank#}  (require) for this type of fishing.

    Cormorant fishing was once practised in lots {#blank#}8{#/blank#} places in South-East China, and there were many fishermen in the area. But today, few people are {#blank#}9{#/blank#}   (interest) in it. In 50 years, perhaps there {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(be) no more cormorant fishermen in the world.

    My friend Jim was a middle school student five years ago. He {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (live) in a small house with his parents in the country. They were poor. They{#blank#}2{#/blank#} have much money. His school was pretty far from his home, but he {#blank#}3{#/blank#} to walk there every day.

    Now he is a student of a college. He {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (study) hard every day. He is interested in computer science and wants to be a computer {#blank#}5{#/blank#} after he leaves college. “I'll use computers {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (much) to do lots of interesting things. I'll work hard to make more {#blank#}7{#/blank#} to buy a big apartment. I'll live in Shanghai because I love {#blank#}8{#/blank#} city. I like traveling and I'll travel around the world, I {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (have) a robot at home. It will help me do some housework, so I'll have more free time {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (relax). I think I'll live a happy life," he says.
