When Dave was eighteen, he bought a secondhand car for 200 so that he could travel to and from work more__1__ than by bus. It worked quite well for a few years, but then it got so old, and it was costing him _2_much in repairs that he decided that he had better _3_it.

Dave told him, and Sam answered, “Well, what about advertising it in the paper? You may _8_more for it that way than the cost of the advertisement!” Thinking that Sam's_9_was sensible(合理的),he put an advertisement in an evening paper, which read “For sale: small car, _10_ very little petrol, only two owners.

For two days after the advertisement first appeared, there was no _11_.But then on Saturday evening he had an enquiry(询问).A man rang up and said he would like to_12_ him about the car. “All right,” Dave said, feeling happy. He asked the man whether ten o'clock the next morning would be_13_or not. “Fine,” the man said, “and I'll _14_my wife. We intend to go for a ride in it to _15_ it.”

The next morning, at a quarter to ten, Dave parked the car in the square outside his front door, _16_ to wait there for the people who had_17_ his advertisement. Even Dave had to

_18_that the car really looked like a wreck(残骸).Then, soon after he had got the car as clean_19_ it could be, a police car stopped just behind him and a policeman got out. He looked at Dave's car and then said, “Have you reported this _20_ to us yet, sir?”

_5_by this new material which could be moulded (用模子做) into shapes and _6_so cheap to buy.

Poor young men _7_in cities with lots of smoke and dirt were_8_ to buy white celluloid collars(领子).The collars were hard and uncomfortable. But they did not have to be sent to

wash. The poor young men _9_ rub them clean every evening with soap and water! Poor mothers,

_10_ had not been able to afford playthings _11_their children, were now able to buy them playthings _12_ of celluloid. But celluloid had one very serious fault. It caught fire very easily. In fact it burned even more quickly than wood or cloth. There were many terrible accidents, particularly _13_ children. For years scientists worked hard to find a better plastic material than celluloid. They had _14_ success.

Indeed, in Britain, he might be in the Traffic Police and spend all, or a lot of, his time _6_up and down main roads and motorways.

A policeman has to help keep the _8_, too. If there is a fight or some other disturbance, we _9_ the police to come and restore order. And they often have to _10_ situation at great risk to their own _11_.

We expect the police to solve crimes, of course, so an ordinary policeman, _12_ he is not a detective(侦探),will often have to help_13_and arrest criminals.

And _14_ do we call when there is an emergency—an air crash,a_15_,a road accident, or a robbery? We call the police. _16_a policeman has to be _17_to face any unpleasant emergency that may happen in the _18_ world.

The police do an absolutely necessary job, they do it _19_ well and I support them, but I do not envy policemen. I do not think that I could _20_ do the job of a policeman.

A high school history teacher once told us, “If you make one close friend in school, you will be most fortunate. A true friend is someone who stays with you for life."_1_ teaches that he was right. Good friendship is just not easily _2_.

It is possible that we simply do not stay in one place long enough food _3_friendship to _4_. However, there can be_5_disagreement on the need for each of us to think carefully about the kind of friendship we want.

To most of us, friendships are considered very important, but we need to have clear in our _6_ the kinds of friendship we want. Are they to be close or _7_ at arm's length? Do we want to _8_ourselves or do we want to walk on the surface? For some people, many friendships on the surface are _9_enough—and that' s all right. But at some point we need to

10 that our expectations are the same as our friends' expectations. The sharing

of_11_experience _12_ our tears as well as our dark dreams is the surest way to deepen friendships. But it _13_be undertaken(进行) slowly and carried on only if there are _14_of interest and action in return.

What are some of the _15_of friendship? The greatest is the attraction to expect too much too soon. Deep relationships _16_time. Another“major difficulty" is the selfishness to think one “possesses" the other, including his time and attention. Similarly, friendships _17_ actions in return. In 18words, you must give as much as you take. Finally there is a question of taking care of. Unless you spend _19_time together, talking on the phone, writing letters, doing things together, friendships will die _20_.

It was a normal summer night. humidity(潮湿) hung in the thick air. The only sound was my sister's heavy 1 from the bed next to me.

I couldn't go to 2 , partly because of my cold and partly because of my 3 for the next day. My mum had said that tomorrow was going to be a 4 .

Sweat stuck to my aching body. Finally, I gathered enough 5 to sit up. I looked out of my small window into the night. There was a big bright 6 hanging in the sky, giving off a magic glow.

My sister turned over as though she was as light as air. Why could she sleep soundly? Why wasn't she 7 too? Did she know about tomorrow?

I couldn't stand the 8 anymore, so I did what I always do to make myself feel better. I went to the 9 and picked up my toothbrush and toothpaste. Pouring the red paste onto the brush, I cleaned back and forth, up and down.

Then I walked downstairs to look for some 10 of movement, some life. Gladiator, my cat, 11 me as he meowed(猫叫)his sad song. He was on the old orange couch, 12 on his front legs, waiting for something to happen. He looked at me as if to say, " I'm 13 , pet me. I need a good hug." Even the couch begged me to sit on it.

In one movement I settled down onto the soft couch. This couch 14 my birth, my parents' marriage, and hundreds of other little 15 .

As I held Gladiator, my heart started beating heavily. My mind was 16 with questions: What's life? Am I really alive? Are you listening to me? Every time I moved my hand down Gladiator's body, I had a 17 thought; each touch sang a different song.

I forgot all about the 18 and the next day's surprise. The 19 was so full of warmth and silence that I sank into its arms. Falling asleep with the big cat in my arms, I felt all my worries 20 move away.
