    The giant panda, also (know)as panda bear or simply panda, is a bear native south central China. In the past many years, the giant panda (drive)out of the lowland areas where it once lived as a result of farming, deforestation and other (develop). Wild population estimates vary: one estimate shows that there are about 1, 590 individuals (1ive)in the wild, while a 2006 study estimated that this figure could be as high as 2,000 to 3,000. Some reports also show that number of giant pandas in the wild is on the rise.

    The West first learned of the giant panda on March 11, 1869, the French missionary(传教士)Armand David received a panda skin from a hunter. In 1936, Ruth Harkness became the first Westerner (bring)a live giant panda named Su Lin to the Brookfield Zoo in Chicago. To protect the pandas, in 2012, Earthwatch Institute, a global nonprofit that teams volunteers with scientists to conduct important (science)research, launched a program called“On the Trail of Giant Panda". This program, based in the Wolong National Nature Reserve, allows volunteers to work up close with pandas cared for in captivity (圈养), and help them (gradual)adapt to life in the wild.

阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

    The Financial Times gave part of my job to a robot named Amy last week. For years I have been making podcast version(播客)of my column, but now I am faced with a tough competition.

    To be fair, Amy {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (do) something going for her. She has a great voice, smooth as velvet. Her{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(two) advantage is that she's practically free. She is part of a new service from Amazon that turns text {#blank#}3{#/blank#}speech, costing-nearly nothing. Even more {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (impress) is her speed. Less than two seconds after receiving my {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (write) text, which means when I just start to read, "Yesterday the Finan…", she has already finished.

    Yet once I got over my distress and listened to her work, I felt {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (good). I know it's early days for her, but at the moment Amy is no match for me. Listening to her is not like listening to {#blank#}7{#/blank#} non-English speaker read aloud, but to someone without brain, or heart, or sense of humor. Her {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (deliver) is so poor that I don't even understand. Amy never reads with understanding, never knows when {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (pause), and never does irony. She continues to get it wrong.

    Finally, I'm not afraid Amy is about to steal my job. Only people possess human touch. It is the heart-to-heart communication {#blank#}10{#/blank#} makes us special, beautiful and irreplaceable.
