Dr Watson was a good friend of the famous detective Sherlock Holmes. One morning they {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(eat) breakfast when suddenly Holmes said, “I have to go to a place {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (call) Coland. A horse has disappeared from there, and the police can't find it. Will you come with me?”

    “Do you think that the horse {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(steal) the other day?” Watson asked.

    “I don't know,' Holmes replied. “ I need to go to Coland {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(find) out.”

    “Why is this horse so important, Holmes?” Watson asked.

    “Because I {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(run) in a big race. If it wins, a lot of people will win a great deal of money. There are also people who {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(not want) it to win.”

    An hour later, they were on the train to Coland.

—Oh, sorry. We{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(have) a meeting.

    Australia is the one of the greatest {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(island) in the world. It is a little{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(small) than China. It is{#blank#}3{#/blank#}the south of the earth. Australia is big, but its population is small. The population of Australia is nearly as {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (large) as that of Shanghai. The sky in Australia is blue and the water is clean. You can clearly see fish {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (swim) in the rivers. Last month we visited Perth, the biggest city in Western Australia. We went to a wild flowers' exhibition. We had a wonderful time there. After visiting Perth, we spent a day in the countryside. We sat down and it was comfortable{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(have) a rest near a path at the foot of a hill. It was quiet and we enjoyed {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (we). It is never too hot in summer{#blank#}8{#/blank#} too cold in winter. But it often{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(rain) in winter, so bring {#blank#}10{#/blank#} umbrella with you.
