【题目】Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words (在短文的空格内填入适当的词,使其内容通顺。每空格限填一词,首字母已给)

Early on Saturday morning. Many of the world are still in bed, enjoying another hours or two of sleep. But a few of Americans are up and r1to go. They plan to be the first to arrive at the yard-sales. What are these yard-sale shoppers looking for? Secondhand things, of course. Yard-sale shoppers aren’t the only people who like used goods. From Australia to the USA, westerners love to buy other people’s things. E2 the rich people look for an antique (古玩) among used goods. Some people buy used goods to save money, others do that to c3 antiques.

How old is old?

For those in Asia. 5, 000-year-old antiques sit in museums. Western antiques are not so old. But American goods even more than twenty years old have value. An ice-cream maker from the 1920s could be $50.S4 from World War I could sell for $4,000 or more.

Some people own old things because they want to make money from them. They go to classes and read books to learn which goods will have more value or are liked by collectors. Others simply buy old things they think interesting. Those who do not want to make money from the old goods say, “Don't buy it u5 it's useful.”

Where to find them?

Secondhand goods can be found in a variety of places. Saturday morning yard sales are the r6 places for those who start to take up the hobby. The flea(跳蚤)market is another place. You won't find fleas, but you may find a wide variety of old things.

Shopping at a flea market for the first time is not easy. You have to look t7 things patiently and carefully to find something you really want.

【题目】Fill in the blanks with proper words. The first letter is given.

One Sunday, Nick went skiing at Sugar-loaf Mountain in Maine. In the early afternoon, when he was planning to go home, a fierce snowstorm swept into the area. Unable to see far, he a 1 turned off the path. Before he knew it, Nick was lost, all alone! He didn’t have food, water, a phone, or other supplies. He was getting colder by the minute.

Nick had no idea where he was. He thought about all the survival s2 he had watched on TV. It was time to put what he had learned to use. He decided to stop skiing. There was a better chance of someone finding him if he stayed put(留下原地). The first thing he did was to find s3 from the freezing wind and snow. If he didn’t, his body temperature would get very low, w4 could quickly kill him.

Using his skis, Nick built a snow cave. He got in. Then he piled branches on top of himself to stay as warm as he c5. By that evening, Nick was really hungry and he ate snow and drank water from a nearby stream so that his body wouldn’t l6 too much water.

The next day, Nick went out to look for help, but he couldn’t find a7 to give him a hand. He knew that if he went too far, he might not be able to find his way back to the cave. He followed his tracks and returned to the snow cave, because w8 shelter, he could die that night. On Tuesday, Nick went out to find help. He had walked for about a mile when a volunteer searcher found him. After two days of being lost in the snow, Nick was saved.

Nick might not have s9 this snowstorm had it not been for TV. He had often watched Bear Grylls’ survival show “Man vs. Wild”. That’s w10 he learned the tips that saved his life. In each episode of “Man vs. Wild”, Grylls is abandoned in a wild area and has to find his way out.
