Among the capitals of big economies, Beijing enjoys a surprising distinction.     1     its sometimes unpleasant weather, it hosts more species of birds than any other such city apart from Brasilia. Remarkably, however, birdwatching remains     2     (common).

In many countries, birders play an important role in     3     (spot) changes in bird populations and behaviour. A British enthusiast in Beijing Terry Townshend, has recently set up     4     means of doing so without needing to stand for hours outdoors. It involves a digital listening device     5     (fix) on the roof of a 15-storey building in northern Beijing. For several months until mid-November it recorded the night-time calls of migratory birds flying above. The sounds will be used to identify night-lying species, some of     6     are not commonly seen overhead by day. The technique has been used in America and Europe, but Mr Townshend thinks this is its first known     7     (apply) in Asia. Such devotion is rare among     8     (amateur).

China has little history of birdwatching. Only in the 19th century did the scientific study of birds begin. Birdwatching as a pastime     9     (emerge) only in the past two decades, helped by rising incomes that have allowed people to buy binoculars and cameras. There is a small but growing number of local birders who     10     (close) monitor bird migration and draw public attention to human threats to birds.

  That way nothing is accomplished. His mouth was too dry     6     (speak)but he could not reach for the water now.  
  On the next turn, he     7     (near) had him. But again the fish righted himself and swam slowly away.
  Twice more it was     8     same on the turns.
  He tried it once more and he felt    9     (him) going when he turned the fish. The fish righted himself and swam off again slowly with the great tail weaving in the air.
