“Equal pay for equal work” is a phrase by the American women who feel they are {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (fair) treated by society.They think it is not right for women to be paid less than men for the{#blank#}2{#/blank#} amount of work.Some people say men have {#blank#}3{#/blank#}  (many) duties than women.A married man has to earn money to support his family and make important {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (decide)，so it is right for them to be paid more.Some are even against married women {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (work) at all.When wives go out to work，they say，the home and children are given no attention {#blank#}6{#/blank#} ．If women are encouraged by equal pay to take up jobs，they will be {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (able) to do the things that they are best at doing：making a nice home and bringing {#blank#}8{#/blank#} children.Women who disagree say that they want to escape from the limited place which society wishes them to fill and have {#blank#}9{#/blank#} freedom to choose between a job and home life，{#blank#}10{#/blank#} a mixture of the two.In fact women have the right not only to equal pay but also to equal chances.

    Each year {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(thousand) of tourists visit the polar regions of the Arctic and Antarctica. But the increasing number of people traveling to the ends of the Earth can have {#blank#}2{#/blank#}negative effect on fragile ecosystems. Should tourists {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(allow) to visit polar regions?

    About 40,000 tourists visit Antarctica each year. More than five million travel to the Arctic and sub-Arctic. Transporting tourists to the regions {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(increase) ship and airplane traffic, adding to the risk of pollution, oil spills, and other {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(environment) damage. Because the places where wildlife is accessible {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(be) few in number, tourist traffic can become concentrated in specific areas, {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (put)Arctic vegetation at risk.

    Others say that access {#blank#}8{#/blank#}these very special parts of the world should not be restricted to only researchers and scientists. Polar tourism allows people to develop deep  {#blank#}9{#/blank#}（person） connections with polar regions. “Those {#blank#}10{#/blank#}travel to the Arctic or Antarctica often become cheerleaders for supporting those places.” Jim Sano, vice president for travel and conservation at World Wildlife Fund, told TFK.

    I felt upset when I was {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (tell) that I would have to leave the company. In order to find {#blank#}2{#/blank#} new job to support the family, I read almost all the newspapers {#blank#}3{#/blank#} set down almost all the telephone numbers in ads {#blank#}4{#/blank#} my notebook and tried to call almost all the companies that needed new clerks. Not until I{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (find) a job in a small town near Townsville did I calm down. My new boss, Mr. Brown, was one of my schoolmates {#blank#}6{#/blank#} I was getting along well with at school. Both of us were {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (excite) to see each other and we spent the whole afternoon {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (talk) about things and persons that we remembered at school. He asked me to give {#blank#}9{#/blank#} some advice on how to enlarge his present business and he was {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (entire) happy about my advice.

    Overhead bridges are found in many parts of big cities, especially in places{#blank#}1{#/blank#} traffic is very heavy and crossing the road is dangerous. The purpose of these bridges{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(be) to enable pedestrians to cross roads {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(safe). Overhead bridges are used in very much the {#blank#}4{#/blank#}way as Zebra crossings. They are more efficient although{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(little) convenient because people have to climb up a long flight of steps. This is{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(convenient) especially to older people. When pedestrians use an overhead bridge, they do not hold up traffic. However, when they cross a busy road using a zebra crossing, traffic is held up. This is why the government has built many overhead bridges {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(help) pedestrians and to keep traffic moving at the same time. For their own safety, pedestrians should be encouraged to use them instead of {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (risk) their lives by dashing across the road. Old people, however, may find it a little difficult climbing up and down the steps, but it is still much safer than walking across the road with all the danger of moving traffic. Overhead bridges serve a very useful purpose. Pedestrians, both old and young, should make {#blank#}9{#/blank#} a habit to use them. This will prevent unnecessary accidents and {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(lose) of life.

    When in 1984 I. M. Pei, then the most sought-after architect in America, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (present) his plans for a 70-foot glass pyramid in the 18th-century courtyard of the Louvre, the general{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(react) was anger. Because Mr. Pei was Chinese-American, he{#blank#}3{#/blank#} (apparent) had no under standing of the Louvre, or Paris, or France.

    However, these remarks did not annoy him. With quick enthusiasm and wide smiles, he took them. He had been asked to design {#blank#}4{#/blank#}new entrance for the museum and{#blank#}5{#/blank#} everyone's surprise, instead of adding on some concrete block, he had created a great welcoming space: put a winding staircase underground and capped it with a ray of light {#blank#}6{#/blank#}did not hurt the old facades(外墙).

    When he was a child, his imagination {#blank#}7{#/blank#}( shape) by his family's ancient gardens at Suzhou in Jiangsu. There, he would wander winding{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(path) through fantastic rocks towards pavilions (亭子), unconsciously {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (absorb) the beauty of the surroundings.

    Mr. Pei built a hotel complex at Fragrant Hill outside Beijing, after returning to China in 1974. He regarded this as a chance{#blank#}10{#/blank#} (bring) the Chinese away from their dull eastern European blocks and back to the domestic traditions they had lost.
