    Do you often throw away things you don't need anymore? Have you ever thought about how these things can actually be put to good use? Nothing is a waste if you have a {#blank#}1{#/blank#} mind.

    You have probably never heard of Amy Hayes, but she is a most {#blank#}2{#/blank#} woman. She lives in a house in the UK that she built herself out of rubbish. The windows and doors come from old buildings around her town that were pulled down. The top of the house is an old boat {#blank#}3{#/blank#} upside down. And the gate in front of her house is made of rocks and old glass bottles. Amy recently won a prize {#blank#}4{#/blank#} the Help Save Our Planet {#blank#}5{#/blank#}. The president said, "Amy is an inspiration to us all."

    Amy isn't the only one who is good at {#blank#}6{#/blank#}. Jessica Wong from Hong Kong uses old clothes that people don't wear anymore to make bags. She has been {#blank#}7{#/blank#} this for a few years now. She opened a small shop where she sells her bags, and she has {#blank#}8{#/blank#} set up a website to sell them online. She {#blank#}9{#/blank#} likes to use old jeans to make handbags. Her bags are cute and {#blank#}10{#/blank#}. "I plan to write a book about new ways to use old clothes," she said. "I hope people can read my book and enjoy it!"

The Elmore Bank had just put in a new safe and vault (金库). Mr. Adams was very {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (pride) of it. He gladly explained its workings to everyone. Ralph Spencer listened {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (polite), but did not seem very interested. The two children, May and Agatha, were very{#blank#}3{#/blank#} (excite) to see these shining things. 

At this time, Ben Price, a policeman from Little Rock, walked inside the bank hall. He told the clerk that he was just waiting for a man he {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (know). 

Suddenly there was a scream (尖叫). May locked Agatha in the vault. The old banker cried, "Oh, the door can't {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (open). And the clock I hadn't started yet." During the following silence they could just hear the girl wildly{#blank#}6{#/blank#} (shout) in the dark vault. "Only one man in Little Rock can open this door," said Mr. Adams. "Ralph, the child can't stand it long in there. There isn't enough air, and besides, she {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (die) of fear. What shall we do?"

Ralph threw off his coat and pulled up his shirt sleeves. With that act Ralph Spencer disappeared and Jimmy Valentine took {#blank#}8{#/blank#} ( he) place. "Get away from the door, all of you," he said. Then he set his suitcase on the floor and laid out all the tools. In ten minutes, breaking his own burglarious (入室盗窃的) record, he opened the door. 

Jimmy put on his coat and walked towards the front door. A big man stood in his way. "Hello, Ben!" said Jimmy, with a strange smile. "Well, let's {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (go)." And then Ben Price acted rather strangely. "Guess you're mistaken, sir," he said. "I don't think we've met each other before. Your carriage {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (wait) for you, isn't it?"
