A man got lost while driving through a country. As he tried to read a map, he drove off the road into a ditch(沟渠) {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (luckily). Though he wasn't injured, his car was stuck deep in the mud(泥). So the man had got to walk to {#blank#}2{#/blank#} nearby farm to ask for help.

  “Warwick can get your car out of that ditch,” said the farmer, {#blank#}3{#/blank#}  (point) to an old mule(骡). The man looked at the weak mu le and the farmer {#blank#}4{#/blank#} just stood there repeating, “Yep, old Warwick can do the job.” The man thought he had nothing to lose. Therefore, {#blank#}5{#/blank#} took the old man and Warwick to the ditch.

    The farmer hitched(套住) the mule to the car and {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (shout), “Pull, Fred! Pull, Jack! Pull, Ted! Pull, Warwick!” And the mule pulled the car from the ditch {#blank#}7{#/blank#} very little effort.

The man was {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (amaze). He thanked the farmer and asked, “Why did you call out all of those other names {#blank#}9{#/blank#} you called Warwick?” The farmer smiled and said, “Old Warwick is just about blind. Once he believes he's part of a team, he won't min d {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (pull).”

    Traffic is a very important part in daily life.Nearly everyone complains about being stuck in traffic so much{#blank#}1{#/blank#}people are making it possible that the future city will have no traffic at all.H.G Wells,in his book.The Sleeper Awakes,tells something about the traffic.In the streets of that future London there will be no vehicles.The city{#blank#}2{#/blank#} (provide) with moving roads.One side of the road travels{#blank#}3{#/blank#}one direction;{#blank#}4{#/blank#}other side moves the opposite way. Anyone who wants to go to another part of the city steps on the moving “way” and sits on one of the seats until he arrives.He has none of the troubles,{#blank#}5{#/blank#}a private car brings with it: whether there is enough petrol,whether the tyres are all right,and where to park it.The moving way is always at his service,always moving{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(silent) along,always ready{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(take) him to his destination.That city of the future will have no traffic jams.

    To link up the{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(vary) cities,vehicles driven by atomic power will pass along highways{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(divide) into two main groups of lanes.Each group will consist of several lanes.Some for slow traffic,some for fast.Crossroads will not exist on these highways,but will be replaced by bridges and junctions.Where these highways enter cities{#blank#}10{#/blank#} (port) and other built-up areas,they will pass through underground tunnels.

    A 71-year-old female {#blank#}1{#/blank#} Taobao has become a role model for many women in this country.

    Yang Guang began moving from Shanghai to Hangzhou in August 2015 when she launched her modeling career {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(success) on Taobao after her {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(retire).

    Yang, who starts her journey at 6:30 a.m., tries more than 100 clothes and poses for photos {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(advertise) these clothes for senior women until 7 p.m. each working day.

    She says she enjoys the process and feels {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(delight) and energetic every day, even though she{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(bother) by diseases such as high blood pressure and heart trouble sometimes.

    {#blank#}7{#/blank#} the saying goes, “Opportunities are for those who are prepared.” Yang {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(shoot) tens of movies{#blank#}9{#/blank#} television dramas with many singers before she became a model on Taobao.

    {#blank#}10{#/blank#} is never too late to realize your dream and time can give everything you want,” says Yang, who has a special kind of beauty that comes from life experiences.

    One day, Nick invited his friends to supper. He was cooking some delicious food in the kitchen .Suddenly, he {#blank#}1{#/blank#}（find）that he had run out of salt. So Nick called to his son," Go to the Village and buy some salt, but pay a fair price for it: neither too much {#blank#}2{#/blank#} too little."

    His son looked surprised. "I can understand why I shouldn't pay too much, Father, but if I can pay less,{#blank#}3{#/blank#} not save a bit of money?"

    "That would be a very {#blank#}4{#/blank#}（reason）thing to do in a big city, but it could destroy a small village like ours," Nick said.

    Nick's guests,{#blank#}5{#/blank#} had heard their conversation, asked why they should not buy salt more cheaply if they could. Nick replied," The only reason a man would sell salt {#blank#}6{#/blank#} a lower price would be because he was desperate for money. And anyone who took advantage of that situation would be showing a lack of respect {#blank#}7{#/blank#}the sweat and struggle of the man who worked very hard to produce it."

    "But such a small thing couldn't {#blank#}8{#/blank#}（possible）destroy a village."

    "In the beginning, there was only {#blank#}9{#/blank#}very small amount of unfairness in the world, but everyone added a little ,always {#blank#}10{#/blank#}（think）that it was only small and not very important ,and look where we have ended up today."

    Chinese researchers have planned to build an airport in Antarctica in November. The Chinese {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (be) not very used to flying to the southernmost continent, because the country s first polar plane, the Snow Eagle 601, {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (put) into use only three years ago.

    Before the Snow Eagle 601, Chinese researchers traveled to the ice-covered land by ship, which took significantly {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (long) than flying. There are currently more than 20 airports in Antarctica, but none of them belong to China. The Snow Eagle 601 has to rely on Russian airports {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (take) off and land. That's {#blank#}5{#/blank#} the Chinese researchers decided to build their own. Building an airport in Antarctica is very different from building one elsewhere. The continent is covered by a {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (constant) moving layer of ice, so the builders must find somewhere that moves at the slowest possible pace and in a {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (fix) direction.

    The builders managed to find a spot back in early 2017 following {#blank#}8{#/blank#} tough measuring process that took place in the storm-like polar winds. The next problem is the snow. The soft nature of snow makes {#blank#}9{#/blank#} a bad material for a runway. So the builders must use road roller-like {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (machine) to press the snow, which can be very time-consuming in extreme coldness.
