3、 decided 8_(accept)his help. The man took Pollys hand and led her to her house. In his other hand the man carried 9_ stick. What a surprise when the man told Polly he was blind! She wanted to invite him to her home to rest for a while, but the man left quickly. He wanted to pay back the help that pe
4、ople gave him when it was 10._ (sun). 2Since I am blind, I always live in darkness. It does not make any 1 _ (different)if I am in the street or at my house-wherever I am, it is like I am in a fog, because I can see nothing of the world around me. 2 _ (go)out is an adventure for me. I can remember w
5、here the shops are, and I can 3 _ (easy)find my way around . However, I always hesitate when I leave the house, because there 4._ (be) many cars and lorries on the streets.

6、aid, I carry 6 _ stick with me when I go out. I grasp it in my hand and use it to feel the pavement, so I can know if there is something in front of 7_ (I). Since other people can observe that I am 8 _ (carry)a stick, they can usually guess that I am blind and stay out of my way. 9_ the same time, I
7、 often run into things 10 _ are up high, such as tree branches, and sometimes hit my head on them.3 It is a quiet evening. All soldiers are asleep while a guard 1 _(watch)for the enemy. Suddenly, there is a flash, and the sound of guns! They are being 2._(attack)! Hundreds of enemy soldiers rush tow
8、ard them. They are all going to be killed unless they get help.An officer writes 3 _ short message quickly on a small piece of paper:” Being attacked!

10、. That is why pigeons have been 10 _(used)to carry the news or even the mail. 4English is a language with many 1._(confuse) rules. Before two Germanic groups occupied Britain, Old English consisted of a mixture of 2._ (they) languages 3 _ Celtic. At the end of the 9th century, the Vikings from the N
11、orthern European countries 4._ (begin) to moved to Britain. As 5._ result, many pairs of words and phrases have similar meanings in English. After the Normans took control 6._England, French was 7 _( speak)in this country together with English, 8 ._ resulted in even more pairs of similar words. Mode
12、rn English includes many Latin and Greek words. Pronunciation also went through huge 9._(change). It is certain that this process will continue, and people will keep inventing new words and new ways10 _ saying things. 5The Chinese language differs from western languages. It uses characters 1_( stand
13、)for ideas, objects or deeds. Chinese words are often 2_(form)by putting together different characters. We can see the history of the Chinese language 3 _ looking at how these characters developed. Chinese writing began thousands of years ago. The first Chinese characters 4._(be) drawings of physica
14、l objects. Some characters have been simplified and others have been made more difficult over time. However, as 5_ whole, the characters have developed from drawings into standard form.Not all characters were 6_(develop)from drawings of objects. Some characters were made by 7 _ (combine)two or more
15、characters together eg. rest and prisoner. Other characters were developed for directions and numbers.

16、inese characters, 10 _ are wide used in Chinas mainland now. 6One big difference 1_ British and American English is in vocabulary. For example, the British use the word autumn while the Americans use the word fall. In this case, the older word is autumn. 2_, about four hundred years ago, the word au
17、tumn was 3 _ (replace)with fall. Later, the British returned to autumn, while the Americans still use fall.Of course, people from many different countries came to America and made their contributions to American English. Indeed, in American English there 4 _ (be) words from every major tongue spoken
18、 on Earth. Many of these words are absent in British English.Another big distinction between American and British English is 5 _ (spell). After the Americans 6_ (defeat) the British in 1781 and gained 7 _ (independent), they wanted to make the spelling of English words simpler. therefore, Americans
19、write color instead of colour.Finally, the pronunciations and accents are different. Both countries have slowly 8 _ (change) the way they say 9 _ same words, but in different ways. This process is _ (continue) every today.7I was lucky to have won a place on a cultural tour of places where there are
20、_ (lose ) civilizations. First we went to Pompeii in Italy, 2_ was buried by a volcano eruption about 2,000 years ago. It was not discovered until the 18th century by a farmer. 3._(fortunate), people started to dig in the area for treasure, 4._(cause) much damage. Thus, in 1860, the area was put und
21、er government so it could be preserved and 5_ (study ). When walking around the city, I saw streets just as they had been, 6._stepping stones along the road. Besides, I saw several houses decorated with wall paintings. I also saw the true-to-life figures of the people who had 7 _(die) in the disaste
22、r. Several days later, we arrived in Loulan, which was a stopping point on the famous Silk Road in China. It used to be a busy and wealthy commercial city with many huge trees. It is believed to have been gradually 8 _ (bury) by sandstorms from AD 200 to AD 400. The ruins 9. was found over100 years
23、ago by Sven Hedin, 9 _ European explorer. A lot of treasures were found. We visited the city walls, palaces, temples, workshops and towers there. 10.What surprised us most 10 _(be) the ancient water system that ran through the center of the city. 8I often wondered why the people of Pompeii did not r
24、un away before the volcano erupted. As it turns out, they did not know 1_ a volcano was. In fact, the Romans did not even have 2 _ word for volcano. They had no idea that a volcano would destroy 3 _(they). Starting from 20 August AD79, there 4 _ (be) some earthquakes near the volcano. However, no on
25、e paid them much attention. Then, on 24 August, the mountain exploded, 5_ (pour)out a cloud of ash. The ash was very hot-as much as 350 when it reached the city. It was also 6_ (move)quite fast. Most of the human remains from Pompeii have been found on the roads away from the city. The people were f
26、leeing the city 7_ their lives. However, they could not get away fast enough, so they were buried beneath the ash. A famous Roman scholar 8_ (happen) to be on a board nearby when all of this happened, so he went to the area 9 _ (see) what was going on. Even he did not know what a volcano was. It was
27、 unfortunate that he too 10_ (die)in the disaster. 9In 334BC, Alexander the Great 1 _ (take) his army, now with 42,000 men, into the Middle East and then Egypt, 2 _ (defeat) every army that stood in his path. Then he turned his eyes east, and marched all the way to India, finding victory wherever he
28、 went. It seemed 3 _ nothing could stop him from 4 _(take) control of the entire world. However , his own army grew 5_(tire) of endless battles and refused 6_ ( go) any further, so he had to turn back. By the age of thirty, he had already 7 _(occupy) more land than anyone before, and it seemed that
29、more glory was 8_ (wait)ahead of him. Yet, in 323 BC, he came down 9._ a fever and died. Since he had no son, his generals divided his vast kingdom among 10_ (they).
