Test One
We all know that it is possible for ordinary people to make their homes on the equator(赤道), although often they may feel 1 hot there. Millions do it. But 2 the North Pole ―we know that it is not only a dangerously cold place, but that people like you and me would find it quite 3 to live there. At the present time only the scientists and explorers can do 4, and they use special equipment. Men 5 across and around the equator on wheels. 6 their feet or in ships for thousands of years; but only 7 men, with great difficulty and in very recent time, have ever crossed the ice to the North Pole. So it may 8 you to learn that, when traveling 9, it is really safer to fly over the North Pole 10 over the equator. Of course, this is not true 11 landings in the polar region (which passenger aeroplanes do not make), but the weather, if we are flying at a 12 of 5,000 metres above the Pole, is a delight. At 4,000 metres and more 13 the earth you can always be sure that you will not see a cloud in the sky as 14 the eye can reach. In the tropics(热带), on the other hand, you are not certain to keep15 bad weather even at such heights as 18,000 metres.
Aeroplanes can’t climb as 16 as or as quickly in cold air as in warm.17 can clouds. In practice, this is an advantage 18 the aeroplane, which is already at a good height 19 it reaches the polar region and so does not need to climb,20 at the same time cold air keeps the clouds down low.

Nobody likes insects. They are 1 and sometimes dangerous. Some of them bite us and give us 2;others bite us and give us big red 3.Some do not bite,4 they just fly round our heads or crawl round our houses and gardens.And we do not like any of them ― 5 those lovely butterflies.
But insects are interesting. First, they are very 6 animals.Three hundred and twenty million years ago there were no men or other 7 in the world but there were insects.Today,8 every square mile of land there are millions of them flying and crawling 9.Second, insects are very 10 to their habitat, to their food and to the weather.Now there are about a million different 11 in the world.Then12do people use insecticides?
Not many insects 13 us.In many cases we do not see the insects and we do not think much about them.The 14 is that insects eat so much of man's food,15 there are so many billions of them.So we must use insecticides to 16 them.
An insecticide is simply a special chemical 17 with some poisonous elements.Farmers 18 their crops very often and the insects die quickly.Of course some poisonous chemicals 19 on the crops or in the20, and that is also dangerous to our health.

Most young people enjoy some form of physical activity.It may be walking, bicycling, or swimming, or in winter, skating or skiing.It may be a game of some 1 -football, hockey, golf or tennis.It may be mountaineering.
Those who have a passion for 2 high and difficult mountains are often 3 with astonishment.Why are men and women willing to 4 cold and hardship, and to take risks on high mountains? This astonishment is caused,5, by the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activity to6 men give their leisure.
Mountaineering is a sport and 7a game.There are no man-made rules 8 there are for such games as golf and football.There are,9, rules of a different kind which it would be dangerous to 10but it is this freedom from man-made rules that makes mountaineering 11 to many people.Those who climb mountains are 12 to use their own methods.
If we compare mountaineering and other more 13 sports, we might think that one big difference is that14 is not a "team game".We should be mistaken 15 this.There are, it is true, no "matches" between "team" of climbers, but when climbers are on a rock face 16 by a rope on which their lives may depend, there is 17 teamwork.

If you stand a short distance away from a high wall and shout, your voice sometimes comes back to you as an echo. This happens because the 1 waves are reflected 2 the wall. This is the principle of radar, 3 instead of sound it is radio waves which are reflected. This 4 was made a few years before the last war,5 radio waves from a transmitting station 6 reflected back from a distant aeroplane.
It was realized 7 an apparatus could be devised to send out radio waves 8 and record the 9 from any approaching aeroplanes, it would be a wonderful method of defense 10 war.
Scientists 11 solving the problem and radar was 12. An apparatus was made which sent out waves in pulses, and the presence of a distant aeroplane was shown on the screen of a cathode(阴极) ray tube, (this is 13 we have in a television set). 14 this way radar stations could detect the approach of enemy aircraft.
After the war radar was put to peaceful uses. It is now installed at airports to 15 aeroplanes down safely in fog. It is fitted to ships so that they are warned 16 obstructions ahead,17 icebergs. It guides ships into port. It provides aeroplanes and ships 18 a magic eye, with 19 they can see 20 into the distance, in the dark or in fog.

When you read to lead to learn English composition, you 1regard the language as the main thing.
When you read a 2in English, do you read it for the story or for the English?

In 1902, a certain Miss Taylor decided to go over the falls in a barrel.There were different kinds of pillows inside the barrel to prevent her 13.Having examined the barrel carefully, Miss Taylor got in. The barrel was closed and then 14 into the water.Having reached the falls, it overturned and was shot down by the terrible 15 of the water.When the barrel was finally caught and opened, Miss Taylor came out alive 16with a frightened look in her eyes.
Once a crowd of visitors saw a rope 17 over them from one bank of the river to the other.Then they saw a man 18the rope.The man was an actor, Blondin 19.He managed to cross Niagara Falls on a tight rope.The people on the bank were surprised at his 20 it so well.

Most young people enjoy some form of physical activity.It may be walking, bicycling, or swimming, or in winter, skating or skiing.It may be a game of some 1 -football, hockey, golf or tennis.It may be mountaineering.
Those who have a passion for 2 high and difficult mountains are often 3 with astonishment.Why are men and women willing to 4 cold and hardship, and to take risks on high mountains? This astonishment is caused,5, by the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activity to6 men give their leisure.
Mountaineering is a sport and 7a game.There are no man-made rules 8 there are for such games as golf and football.There are,9, rules of a different kind which it would be dangerous to 10but it is this freedom from man-made rules that makes mountaineering 11 to many people.Those who climb mountains are 12 to use their own methods.
If we compare mountaineering and other more 13 sports, we might think that one big difference is that14 is not a "team game".We should be mistaken 15 this.There are, it is true, no "matches" between "team" of climbers, but when climbers are on a rock face 16 by a rope on which their lives may depend, there is 17 teamwork.

If you stand a short distance away from a high wall and shout, your voice sometimes comes back to you as an echo. This happens because the 1 waves are reflected 2 the wall. This is the principle of radar, 3 instead of sound it is radio waves which are reflected. This 4 was made a few years before the last war,5 radio waves from a transmitting station 6 reflected back from a distant aeroplane.
It was realized 7 an apparatus could be devised to send out radio waves 8 and record the 9 from any approaching aeroplanes, it would be a wonderful method of defense 10 war.
Scientists 11 solving the problem and radar was 12. An apparatus was made which sent out waves in pulses, and the presence of a distant aeroplane was shown on the screen of a cathode(阴极) ray tube, (this is 13 we have in a television set). 14 this way radar stations could detect the approach of enemy aircraft.
After the war radar was put to peaceful uses. It is now installed at airports to 15 aeroplanes down safely in fog. It is fitted to ships so that they are warned 16 obstructions ahead,17 icebergs. It guides ships into port. It provides aeroplanes and ships 18 a magic eye, with 19 they can see 20 into the distance, in the dark or in fog.

When you read to lead to learn English composition, you 1regard the language as the main thing.
When you read a 2in English, do you read it for the story or for the English?
