I have a neighbor we call "Happy". I have never seen her angry at anything and never heard her say a harsh (苛刻) word to anyone or about anyone. They always have a positive attitude     1     other people and the society.

Happy and her husband Ben. 70, have a huge garden on which they spent many happy hours together working. Most of the neighbors watched interestingly as Ben doubled the size of     2     (they) garden. As the cost of food climbed faster, we all wished we also had such a large garden.

One day last month was the time     3     Happy and Ben asked most of the neighbors to go for an “all-day food feast". The place where we     4     (invite) to go was their house. They said to us, "Please bring gloves and arrive very early in the morning, will you?" We didn't know the reason why they asked us to do that. Neither did we know what     5     (take) place the next morning.

By 9:00 am, there were nine of us in the garden picking     6     (variety) kinds of vegetables such as tomatoes, beans, okra, and squash. By 10：00 am, there was lots of laughter. We didn't need to pretend     7     (be)like others and we were ourselves. We shared a lot of stories. By five o'clock. everyone was a little drunk from the wine and beer. After dinner, we played games. We were     8     (extreme) happy. As we were leaving, Happy and Ben handed each of us a shopping bag that was filled with the bounty (收成) of the day. What a delightful gift!

Well, in     9     (summarize)the point wasn't so much about the food. The true gift was a day of friends enjoying one another's company, wasn't     10    ? None of it would have happened if it had been for Happy and Ben's garden.

Archaeologists have uncovered a collection of 3,000-year-old handicrafts at Sanxingdui, Sichuan province. The researchers found more than 500 objects at the site in 2019, most of    1    were carved out of gold, bronze, jade and ivory.

Experts are unsure who made the handicrafts, but they guess that the creators belonged to the Shu state, a    2    (high) skilled civilization conquered by the neighboring state of Qin in 316 B.C. Because the people of Shu left behind few    3    (write) records, historians’ knowledge of their culture is limited.

A major highlight of the find is a 0.6-pound fragment (碎片) of a gold mask that may have been used    4    (wear) during religious ceremonies. About 84 percent pure gold, the piece likely weighed close to one pound in total,     5    (make) it one of the heaviest gold masks from that time period discovered in China to date.

Other    6    (discovery) made at the site included two kinds of silk. Silk has played    7    important role in China’s long history. As the statement points out, the silk was thought to serve    8    a carrier by the ancient inhabitants of Sanxingdui for communication between heaven, earth, man and god. The presence of silk at Sanxingdui     9    (indicate) that the ancient Shu Kingdom is one of the important origins of silk in ancient China. All these findings enrich and     10    (deep) our understanding of the Sanxingdui culture.
