THE AMAZING ANIMALS OF AUSTRALIA
Our topic today is “Creatures Unique to Australia”, with questions __________(answer) by wildlife expert, Dr Jim Smith.
Australia has lots of unique animals, but __________ animal is a symbol of the country
It has to be the kangaroo, __________ it has a wide distribution throughout the country. It’s a tough animal that has to survive in a difficult environment. Also, it cannot walk backwards, __________ it is always moving forwards. This expresses the __________(strong) and resolve of the Australians as individuals and as a nation. Baby kangaroos __________(weight) only two grammes at birth. They then find their way __________ their mother’s pouch — a kind of a pocket — to stay safe and warm. They sleep and drink milk in that temporary, __________(protect) environment until they are about seven or eight months old. After this phase, they go out to try their legs. After they learn to jump, they gradually spend less time with their mother and learn to be __________(dependent). Kangaroos may look cute, but __________(encounter) with them don’t always end so well. Kangaroos can hit and kick very hard, so please folks, if you see some kangaroos, remember they’re not for petting!
Koalas are cute, and we see so many pictures of people __________(hold) them. But in many places in Australia, it is __________ the law to even touch them. Can you clarify that
They are really quite cute, __________ the truth is, koalas are very sensitive creatures who can easily panic because of even small changes in their environment. They spend quite a lot of time eating, sleeping, __________ hanging onto tree trunks, so interaction with humans can cause them a lot of stress. Because of this, the government began to make laws against touching koalas, __________ the interest of animal protection, as well as public __________(safe). So, if you see one in the wild, you shouldn’t approach it to pick it up __________ even touch it. If you want to hold a koala, you have to go to certain __________(license) zoos where animal experts make sure that the koalas __________ (select) for each session are in a good state for human contact __________ that they are handled for only a limited time and on a limited frequency of occasions.
So, we’ve talked about some cute animals. What about animals which aren’t so cute
My favourite is a little creature called the Tasmanian devil. If you are out camping in Tasmania and come across __________, the experience might scare you! Tasmanian devils hunt at night, so you won’t usually see them, but you may hear their loud __________(cry) when they are fighting or eating. The noise they make could wake __________ dead. Frightening! They are about the size of small dogs and look like rather large black rats. They also have a terrible smell! Their diet is mostly dead animals. Fortunately, __________ their name, they are generally not violent towards people.
Australia also has some animals that many people have never heard of, for example, the duck-billed platypus. Is that some kind of bird
Not at all. __________ it may lay eggs in a nest like a bird, it’s really a primitive mammal, with a unique biology. Its eggs hatch after about ten days, and then the baby platypus __________(nurse) from its mother like all other mammals. Its nose looks like a duck’s bill, and it has feet like a __________(duck) so it can dive under the water, but it’s covered in hair. Do you know what’s really strange about a platypus The platypus doesn’t use its senses of sight __________ smell to find food. It has a capacity __________(find) food in the water by using electrical sensors in its bill. There are only a small handful of animals in the world __________ can do that!
Unit 3 SEA EXPLORATION Reading and Thinking
REACHING OUT ACROSS THE SEA
Trade and __________(curious) have often formed the foundation of mankind’s greatest achievements. __________(complete) the great map of the world was a strong passion for the people of early civilizations. Marco Polo’s tales inspired European explorers to search __________ sea routes from west to east. However, merchants and explorers from the East set sail from east to west many years before Columbus first __________.
In ancient times, silk from China found __________ way overland to India, the Middle East, and Rome, along __________ became known as the Silk Road. A trading route across the sea was also extended along the coasts of the Indian Ocean, centred around Ceylon (now Sri Lanka). Here, merchants from China and many other places met __________(negotiate) trade deals, which also led to more awareness of each other’s cultures. Over the centuries, further trading allowed more exploration of the regions to the west of China, __________ recorded in Du Huan’s Record of My Travels in the eighth century.
Later, the Ming Dynasty __________(far) developed relations with these regions. Between 1405 and 1433, seven large fleets sailed west on voyages of trade and exploration. These fleets were a sight __________(behold) and were in a league of their own at that time. __________ the command of Zheng He, they set sail from the South China Sea across the Indian Ocean to the mouth of the Red Sea, and then __________ the east coast of Africa. African royal families sent gifts such as giraffes as __________(gesture) of friendship in return for gold, silk, and spices. Although China withdrew __________ further expeditions after 1433, these land and sea routes remained active channels between other cultures for centuries.
To reach out across the sea remains a strong desire today. The ancient sea routes __________(travel) by Zheng He are being revisited with the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road, which is part of the Belt and Road Initiative. The aim of this initiative is to encourage cooperation and trade across the historic Silk Road areas, __________ strengthen the bonds between China and the rest of the world. Trading has grown greatly in recent years, and __________(continue) to do so in years to come. China has invested billions in systems and services along these routes, which will help to greatly develop the whole area __________ the benefit of future trade and cultural exchange.
China has also joined its friends across the sea on other important projects. Although the ancient sea routes of Zheng He have been travelled many times, there are still many other places left __________(explore). In recent years, China has joined other nations on several expeditions to explore the Arctic. From a __________(science) point of view, there is an urgent need __________(study) the Arctic in order to understand climate change and its effects.
Hundreds of years on, and __________ the latest technology in hand, the need to trade and the desire to enhance relationships will drive China __________(reach) out across the sea far into the future.
Unit 3 SEA EXPLORATION Using language
Express your opinions on sea exploration
Text 1
When people talk of exploring the sea more, they usually mean __________(exploit) it. Sea exploration has caused many problems and will continue to cause more.

Mining __________ resources is very damaging, especially in the Arctic. Because of climate change, there is less ice now, __________ means we can look for more fossil fuels further north. But if we burn __________, the ice will melt more and this negative cycle will continue. Climate change is warning us __________ something is very wrong.
Overfishing is __________ problem. Whales and dolphins are also hunted for their meat or for so-called research. Although this __________(ban) in 1982, some countries are still “murdering” these intelligent creatures __________ mercy.
The sea is home to life, not human beings’ possessions. It is huge, __________ it is more sensitive than we think. If we do not protect it, future generations will not forgive us.

VOLUNTEERING IN THE BUSH
8 March
I just got a parcel from home! It took about two weeks __________(arrive), and it was a bit damaged, but it was so nice to get some sweets and jam from home; I’ve been dying __________ (have) some of my favourite sweets, and it’s always nice to get mail!
So I__________(be) here in the jungle for about a month now. My secondary school is a bush school. The classrooms are made of bamboo, with clay floors and roofs of grass. It takes me only a few minutes to walk to school down a __________(dust) track covered in weeds. When I reach the school grounds, I’m greeted by __________ chorus of “good morning” from the boys. __________ (like) students in our country, these boys do not wear cotton uniforms, __________ many of them also have to walk a long way, sometimes for up to two hours, just to get to school.
There’s no electricity, __________(run) water or even textbooks, not __________(mention) laptops, tablets, or other modern devices! All the students have are pencils, rubbers, and paper. I’m still trying to adapt__________ these conditions. I’ve had to become much more __________(imagine) in my teaching. Science is my most __________(challenge) subject as my students have no concept of doing experiments. There is no equipment, and __________ there isn’t even a washroom, if I need water I have to carry it from my house in a basin! It’s important not to be too rigid about rules here, too. The other day I was showing the boys a chemistry experiment __________, before I knew it, the mixture was bubbling out of the test tube spilling everywhere! The class became a circus as the boys, who had never come across __________ like this before, started jumping out of the windows. Sometimes I wonder how relevant chemistry is __________ these students—few will ever become chemists—and most will be going back to their villages after Year 8 anyway. To be honest, I doubt __________ I’m making any difference to these boys’ lives at all.
17 April
Last weekend I made my first visit to a remote village, home to one of our students, Tombe. Another teacher and I walked for two and a half hours to get there—first, up a mountain __________ where we had fantastic views, and then down a __________(shade) path to the valley below. When we arrived at the village, Tombe’s mother, Kiak, saw us coming and started crying “ieee ieee”. We shook hands with all the villagers. Everyone seemed to be related to Tombe.
Tombe’s father, Mukap, a man with a strong jaw and a __________(wrinkle) forehead, led us to his house, a low, round bamboo hut with no windows, with a door just big enough __________(get) through, and with grass __________(stick) out of the roof—this shows it is a man’s house. Such housing is dark inside so it took time for our eyes to adjust. Fresh grass had been laid on the floor and there was a platform for Jenny and me to sleep on. There was a fireplace in the centre of the hut. The only __________(possess) I could see were one broom, a few saucers, a kettle, cups, pans, and a couple of jars.
Mukap built a fire outside and laid stones on it to heat. He then placed the hot stones in an empty oil drum with kau kau (sweet potato), ripe corn, and greens. He then covered the vegetables with banana leaves and left them to steam. It smelled delicious. We ate inside the hut __________(sit) round the fire. I loved listening to the family talking softly to each other __________ their language, even though I could not participate much in the conversation. Luckily, Tombe interpreted for us.
Later, I noticed a can __________(stand) upside down on the grill over the fire. After a while, Tombe threw it out of the doorway. Tombe told me that the can was heated__________(dry) out the leftover food. His family believes that __________(leftover) attract bad spirits in the night, so any leftover food is dried up in a can and the can is then thrown out of the hut.
We left the village the next morning after many goodbyes and firm handshakes. My muscles were aching and my knees shaking as we dragged __________(we) down the mountain towards home. That evening I fell happily into bed. It was such a privilege to have spent a day with Tombe’s family.

Hello! My name is Zhan Bingbing.

We see Chinese workers __________(build) roads in the Congo, a port in Pakistan, railways in Panama, and an airport in Sri Lanka. __________ we see Chinese miners, oil workers, agricultural experts, mechanics, and doctors __________(work) in nearly every corner of the world. And some people may ask. “Is it worth it Why help people overseas when China has many areas that are still __________ need of development ”
I had the same questions __________(I). But for me, it was much more personal. You see, my mother is a medical doctor, and for the last two years, she __________(work) as a volunteer consultant in Tanzania, Africa, as a part of a medical team sent by the Chinese government.
To be honest, when my mother first left __________ Africa, I was upset. You see, my mother cooked me dinner every night, and she took good care of me. But more importantly, she was my best friend. We talked together, we spent our leisure time together, __________ except for school and work, we were never apart. So I was unhappy about her leaving __________ even asking for my input.
But then I began to hear about the work she was doing in Tanzania, a country that has many health problems, and now I am singing __________ different tune. Many dangerous diseases which are rare in China are quite commonly contracted in Tanzania. And, __________the country is quite beautiful and has much natural wealth, many of the people are quite poor and live without things we take for __________(grant), such as electricity, running water, cars and good transport systems, and supermarkets. One project that my mother worked on was helping to build a cardiac hospital. Prior __________ this, if a Tanzanian had a heart condition and needed surgery, they would have to go abroad. __________ this was quite expensive, many people went __________ medical treatment and some even died. Now, not only __________ Tanzanians helped by the hospital, but people in __________(neighbor) countries are helped as well. It has made a big difference to their lives. My mother also does a circuit of the rural villages to provide medical treatment, help those with disabilities, __________ provide consultation and training for local doctors. In addition, her team has given patients new malaria treatment capsules __________(invent) in China and this has saved many lives.
Today, I want to relay __________ you that I’m proud of the work my mother has done and I am now __________(support) of it. Is her work worth it Yes, to the lives of the people she is helping, it is worth it. But by any criteria this work is worth it to us as well, because it shows that we are __________ (globe) citizens interested in world stability, and__________ we feel responsible for others and are ready to build a community with a __________(share) future for mankind. Everyone deserves a fair chance in life. When I think of all the things __________ we as Chinese citizens can be most proud of, helping others __________(come) at the top of this list. Now that I understand __________ important my mother’s work is, I’ve decided to become a volunteer myself to help people in other lands. In the future, I pray that you will do the same.
Thank you!

Larry Belmont worked for a company __________ made robots. Recently it had begun experimenting __________ a household robot. It was going to be tested out by Larry’s wife Claire.
Claire didn’t want the robot in her house, especially as her husband would be away on a business trip for three weeks, but Larry persuaded her that the robot wouldn’t harm her __________ allow her to be harmed. It would be a bonus. However when she first saw the robot, she felt alarmed. His name was Tony. He seemed __________(much) like a human than a machine. He was tall and handsome __________ smooth hair and a deep voice, although his __________(face) expression never changed.
__________ the second morning, Tony brought her breakfast and then asked her __________ she needed help dressing. She felt __________ (embarrass) and quickly told him to go. Now she was being looked after by a robot that looked so human, and it was __________(disturb).
One day, Claire mentioned that she didn’t think she was clever. Tony said that she must feel very __________(happy) to say that. Claire thought it was ridiculous that she was being offered sympathy by a robot, but she gradually admired his __________(wise) and integrity and began to trust him. He always treated her __________ dignity. She told him how she was unhappy that her home wasn’t elegant enough for Larry, who wanted to improve his social position with a __________(big) salary. She wasn’t like Gladys Claffern, one of the __________(rich) and most powerful women around.
As a favour, Tony promised to help Claire make __________(she) more beautiful and her home more elegant. So Claire borrowed some library books for him to read, or rather, scan. She looked at __________ (he) fingers with wonder as they turned each page. How absurd, she thought. He was just a machine.
Tony gave Claire a new hairstyle and improved her makeup. __________ he was not allowed to accompany her to the shops, he wrote out a list of things __________ he would need for his work on the house. Claire went downtown and bought these things. She had an appointment to paint her nails, then she went into __________ expensive clothes shop.

When Claire got home, she wept. Gladys was everything__________ Claire wished to be. Tony told her she was being sensitive and was just as good as Gladys.

THE TIME MACHINE
It was at ten o’clock today __________ the first of all Time Machines began its career. I gave it a last check, and __________ (sit) myself in the leather seat. I pushed the __________(start) lever on the main panel forwards an inch then immediately backwards again. __________(look) around, I saw my laboratory exactly as before. Had anything happened I thought my mind __________(trick) me. Then I saw the clock. A moment before, it was a minute or so past ten; now it was nearly half past three!
I drew a breath, __________(grip) the lever and pushed it forwards. The laboratory went hazy around me. My niece came in to fetch __________, maybe her handkerchief, apparently without seeing me. It probably took her a minute, __________ to me she moved like a rocket! I pushed the lever __________(far). Night came as if a lamp was being turned out, and in another moment came the day. Tomorrow night came, then skipped to day, again and again, faster and faster still.
__________ is hard to explain the strange and unpleasant feeling of time travelling. It felt like I was being driven fast on a __________ (wind) road. As my pace grew faster, the walls of the laboratory fell away, and I __________(leave) in the open air. The sun and moon looked as if they were being thrown across the sky, but soon there was __________(divide) between night and day. Around me I saw trees __________(grow) like puffs of smoke; they grew, spread, __________ died in moments. I saw huge buildings rise up, then __________(disappear) like in a dream. The whole surface of the earth was being changed, melting and flowing before my eyes. I calculated that I was being pushed through time at hundreds of years a minute.
I had a strange urge __________(look) at the random things that were being flashed before my eyes! I had thought about the risk of stopping the Time Machine many __________(time). So long as I travelled __________ maximum speed, it didn’t matter. But if I stopped and the same space was being occupied by something else, we would be forced together and explode like a bomb! Like an __________(patient) fool, I pulled the lever backwards hard. With a sudden jolt, the Time Machine was flipped on its side, and I __________(throw) through the air.
I __________ (stun) for a moment, and then heard the sound of thunder. I was sitting in the rain in some mud next to __________ machine. “A fine welcome,” I said, “for a man __________ has travelled thousands of years to be here!”

__________(survive) in this vast land on the ocean, the Aborigines had to be in close contact with nature. This shows in their music, too, __________ celebrates the natural world and the spiritual world around them.

The didgeridoo player has to change the shape of his mouth in order to change pitch. A __________(skill) player can play for a long time without stopping to breathe.

It’s almost time for me __________(say) goodbye to Australia. I’ve enjoyed my time here very much.

Personally speaking, __________ I like most about Australia is the people themselves. They have a straightforward and free-and-easy attitude __________ life, and their friendliness and __________(warm) made me feel at home wherever I went.
After experiencing Australia, I have to say that I agree with the tourism slogan: “There’s nothing like Australia.”

THE AMAZING ANIMALS OF AUSTRALIA
Our topic today is “Creatures Unique to Australia”, with questions __________(answer) by wildlife expert, Dr Jim Smith.
Australia has lots of unique animals, but __________ animal is a symbol of the country
It has to be the kangaroo, __________ it has a wide distribution throughout the country. It’s a tough animal that has to survive in a difficult environment. Also, it cannot walk backwards, __________ it is always moving forwards. This expresses the __________(strong) and resolve of the Australians as individuals and as a nation. Baby kangaroos __________(weight) only two grammes at birth. They then find their way __________ their mother’s pouch — a kind of a pocket — to stay safe and warm. They sleep and drink milk in that temporary, __________(protect) environment until they are about seven or eight months old. After this phase, they go out to try their legs. After they learn to jump, they gradually spend less time with their mother and learn to be __________(dependent). Kangaroos may look cute, but __________(encounter) with them don’t always end so well. Kangaroos can hit and kick very hard, so please folks, if you see some kangaroos, remember they’re not for petting!
Koalas are cute, and we see so many pictures of people __________(hold) them. But in many places in Australia, it is __________ the law to even touch them. Can you clarify that
They are really quite cute, __________ the truth is, koalas are very sensitive creatures who can easily panic because of even small changes in their environment. They spend quite a lot of time eating, sleeping, __________ hanging onto tree trunks, so interaction with humans can cause them a lot of stress. Because of this, the government began to make laws against touching koalas, __________ the interest of animal protection, as well as public __________(safe). So, if you see one in the wild, you shouldn’t approach it to pick it up __________ even touch it. If you want to hold a koala, you have to go to certain __________(license) zoos where animal experts make sure that the koalas __________ (select) for each session are in a good state for human contact __________ that they are handled for only a limited time and on a limited frequency of occasions.
So, we’ve talked about some cute animals. What about animals which aren’t so cute
My favourite is a little creature called the Tasmanian devil. If you are out camping in Tasmania and come across __________, the experience might scare you! Tasmanian devils hunt at night, so you won’t usually see them, but you may hear their loud __________(cry) when they are fighting or eating. The noise they make could wake __________ dead. Frightening! They are about the size of small dogs and look like rather large black rats. They also have a terrible smell! Their diet is mostly dead animals. Fortunately, __________ their name, they are generally not violent towards people.
Australia also has some animals that many people have never heard of, for example, the duck-billed platypus. Is that some kind of bird
Not at all. __________ it may lay eggs in a nest like a bird, it’s really a primitive mammal, with a unique biology. Its eggs hatch after about ten days, and then the baby platypus __________(nurse) from its mother like all other mammals. Its nose looks like a duck’s bill, and it has feet like a __________(duck) so it can dive under the water, but it’s covered in hair. Do you know what’s really strange about a platypus The platypus doesn’t use its senses of sight __________ smell to find food. It has a capacity __________(find) food in the water by using electrical sensors in its bill. There are only a small handful of animals in the world __________ can do that!
Unit 3 SEA EXPLORATION Reading and Thinking
REACHING OUT ACROSS THE SEA
Trade and __________(curious) have often formed the foundation of mankind’s greatest achievements. __________(complete) the great map of the world was a strong passion for the people of early civilizations. Marco Polo’s tales inspired European explorers to search __________ sea routes from west to east. However, merchants and explorers from the East set sail from east to west many years before Columbus first __________.
In ancient times, silk from China found __________ way overland to India, the Middle East, and Rome, along __________ became known as the Silk Road. A trading route across the sea was also extended along the coasts of the Indian Ocean, centred around Ceylon (now Sri Lanka). Here, merchants from China and many other places met __________(negotiate) trade deals, which also led to more awareness of each other’s cultures. Over the centuries, further trading allowed more exploration of the regions to the west of China, __________ recorded in Du Huan’s Record of My Travels in the eighth century.
Later, the Ming Dynasty __________(far) developed relations with these regions. Between 1405 and 1433, seven large fleets sailed west on voyages of trade and exploration. These fleets were a sight __________(behold) and were in a league of their own at that time. __________ the command of Zheng He, they set sail from the South China Sea across the Indian Ocean to the mouth of the Red Sea, and then __________ the east coast of Africa. African royal families sent gifts such as giraffes as __________(gesture) of friendship in return for gold, silk, and spices. Although China withdrew __________ further expeditions after 1433, these land and sea routes remained active channels between other cultures for centuries.
To reach out across the sea remains a strong desire today. The ancient sea routes __________(travel) by Zheng He are being revisited with the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road, which is part of the Belt and Road Initiative. The aim of this initiative is to encourage cooperation and trade across the historic Silk Road areas, __________ strengthen the bonds between China and the rest of the world. Trading has grown greatly in recent years, and __________(continue) to do so in years to come. China has invested billions in systems and services along these routes, which will help to greatly develop the whole area __________ the benefit of future trade and cultural exchange.
China has also joined its friends across the sea on other important projects. Although the ancient sea routes of Zheng He have been travelled many times, there are still many other places left __________(explore). In recent years, China has joined other nations on several expeditions to explore the Arctic. From a __________(science) point of view, there is an urgent need __________(study) the Arctic in order to understand climate change and its effects.
Hundreds of years on, and __________ the latest technology in hand, the need to trade and the desire to enhance relationships will drive China __________(reach) out across the sea far into the future.

Express your opinions on sea exploration
Text 1
When people talk of exploring the sea more, they usually mean __________(exploit) it. Sea exploration has caused many problems and will continue to cause more.
More exploration means more pollution. The Deepwater Horizon spilled over 200 million gallons of oil into the sea in 2010. Plastic pollution is also bad, killing many birds and fish, __________ has even been found in our tap water.
Mining __________ resources is very damaging, especially in the Arctic. Because of climate change, there is less ice now, __________ means we can look for more fossil fuels further north. But if we burn __________, the ice will melt more and this negative cycle will continue. Climate change is warning us __________ something is very wrong.
Overfishing is __________ problem. Whales and dolphins are also hunted for their meat or for so-called research. Although this __________(ban) in 1982, some countries are still “murdering” these intelligent creatures __________ mercy.
The sea is home to life, not human beings’ possessions. It is huge, __________ it is more sensitive than we think. If we do not protect it, future generations will not forgive us.
Text 2
To __________(true) understand our planet, we must explore the oceans which cover most of it. Opponents may be concerned, __________ sea exploration is important for our future. For example, scientific research ships can help __________(address) important issues such as climate change. We need to understand __________ is happening to our planet so that we can take action. Therefore, more research is necessary.
Understanding more about the sea will also help us manage its resources __________(well). __________(log) new species will improve our understanding of life on the earth. It may help us discover new medicines, as well as new sources of food and energy. __________(access) the deep ocean may also help us to predict events such as earthquakes.
The population of the world is growing and we need new resources for future development. There are probably vast amounts of resources under the sea and ice, not just oil and gas but also __________ (value) minerals.
Of course, there are still __________(environment) risks. However these should be balanced with __________(economy) needs. Hopefully, __________ technology improves, we may have more options for managing this balance.

VOLUNTEERING IN THE BUSH
8 March
I just got a parcel from home! It took about two weeks __________(arrive), and it was a bit damaged, but it was so nice to get some sweets and jam from home; I’ve been dying __________ (have) some of my favourite sweets, and it’s always nice to get mail!
So I__________(be) here in the jungle for about a month now. My secondary school is a bush school. The classrooms are made of bamboo, with clay floors and roofs of grass. It takes me only a few minutes to walk to school down a __________(dust) track covered in weeds. When I reach the school grounds, I’m greeted by __________ chorus of “good morning” from the boys. __________ (like) students in our country, these boys do not wear cotton uniforms, __________ many of them also have to walk a long way, sometimes for up to two hours, just to get to school.
There’s no electricity, __________(run) water or even textbooks, not __________(mention) laptops, tablets, or other modern devices! All the students have are pencils, rubbers, and paper. I’m still trying to adapt__________ these conditions. I’ve had to become much more __________(imagine) in my teaching. Science is my most __________(challenge) subject as my students have no concept of doing experiments. There is no equipment, and __________ there isn’t even a washroom, if I need water I have to carry it from my house in a basin! It’s important not to be too rigid about rules here, too. The other day I was showing the boys a chemistry experiment __________, before I knew it, the mixture was bubbling out of the test tube spilling everywhere! The class became a circus as the boys, who had never come across __________ like this before, started jumping out of the windows. Sometimes I wonder how relevant chemistry is __________ these students—few will ever become chemists—and most will be going back to their villages after Year 8 anyway. To be honest, I doubt __________ I’m making any difference to these boys’ lives at all.
17 April
Last weekend I made my first visit to a remote village, home to one of our students, Tombe. Another teacher and I walked for two and a half hours to get there—first, up a mountain __________ where we had fantastic views, and then down a __________(shade) path to the valley below. When we arrived at the village, Tombe’s mother, Kiak, saw us coming and started crying “ieee ieee”. We shook hands with all the villagers. Everyone seemed to be related to Tombe.
Tombe’s father, Mukap, a man with a strong jaw and a __________(wrinkle) forehead, led us to his house, a low, round bamboo hut with no windows, with a door just big enough __________(get) through, and with grass __________(stick) out of the roof—this shows it is a man’s house. Such housing is dark inside so it took time for our eyes to adjust. Fresh grass had been laid on the floor and there was a platform for Jenny and me to sleep on. There was a fireplace in the centre of the hut. The only __________(possess) I could see were one broom, a few saucers, a kettle, cups, pans, and a couple of jars.
Mukap built a fire outside and laid stones on it to heat. He then placed the hot stones in an empty oil drum with kau kau (sweet potato), ripe corn, and greens. He then covered the vegetables with banana leaves and left them to steam. It smelled delicious. We ate inside the hut __________(sit) round the fire. I loved listening to the family talking softly to each other __________ their language, even though I could not participate much in the conversation. Luckily, Tombe interpreted for us.
Later, I noticed a can __________(stand) upside down on the grill over the fire. After a while, Tombe threw it out of the doorway. Tombe told me that the can was heated__________(dry) out the leftover food. His family believes that __________(leftover) attract bad spirits in the night, so any leftover food is dried up in a can and the can is then thrown out of the hut.
We left the village the next morning after many goodbyes and firm handshakes. My muscles were aching and my knees shaking as we dragged __________(we) down the mountain towards home. That evening I fell happily into bed. It was such a privilege to have spent a day with Tombe’s family.

Hello! My name is Zhan Bingbing.
Lately, all of us have seen Chinese people on TV in far-off places in the world, helping other countries to develop. We see Chinese workers __________(build) roads in the Congo, a port in Pakistan, railways in Panama, and an airport in Sri Lanka. __________ we see Chinese miners, oil workers, agricultural experts, mechanics, and doctors __________(work) in nearly every corner of the world. And some people may ask. “Is it worth it Why help people overseas when China has many areas that are still __________ need of development ”
I had the same questions __________(I). But for me, it was much more personal. You see, my mother is a medical doctor, and for the last two years, she __________(work) as a volunteer consultant in Tanzania, Africa, as a part of a medical team sent by the Chinese government.
To be honest, when my mother first left __________ Africa, I was upset. You see, my mother cooked me dinner every night, and she took good care of me. But more importantly, she was my best friend. We talked together, we spent our leisure time together, __________ except for school and work, we were never apart. So I was unhappy about her leaving __________ even asking for my input.
But then I began to hear about the work she was doing in Tanzania, a country that has many health problems, and now I am singing __________ different tune. Many dangerous diseases which are rare in China are quite commonly contracted in Tanzania. And, __________the country is quite beautiful and has much natural wealth, many of the people are quite poor and live without things we take for __________(grant), such as electricity, running water, cars and good transport systems, and supermarkets. One project that my mother worked on was helping to build a cardiac hospital. Prior __________ this, if a Tanzanian had a heart condition and needed surgery, they would have to go abroad. __________ this was quite expensive, many people went __________ medical treatment and some even died. Now, not only __________ Tanzanians helped by the hospital, but people in __________(neighbor) countries are helped as well. It has made a big difference to their lives. My mother also does a circuit of the rural villages to provide medical treatment, help those with disabilities, __________ provide consultation and training for local doctors. In addition, her team has given patients new malaria treatment capsules __________(invent) in China and this has saved many lives.
Today, I want to relay __________ you that I’m proud of the work my mother has done and I am now __________(support) of it. Is her work worth it Yes, to the lives of the people she is helping, it is worth it. But by any criteria this work is worth it to us as well, because it shows that we are __________ (globe) citizens interested in world stability, and__________ we feel responsible for others and are ready to build a community with a __________(share) future for mankind. Everyone deserves a fair chance in life. When I think of all the things __________ we as Chinese citizens can be most proud of, helping others __________(come) at the top of this list. Now that I understand __________ important my mother’s work is, I’ve decided to become a volunteer myself to help people in other lands. In the future, I pray that you will do the same.
Thank you!
