I have a successful career as    1     educational consultant. But my life wasn’t always so great. I had a learning    2     (disabled) from an early age and suffered a lot in public schools. 

My life improved surprisingly when I discovered art. The art world gave me a chance    3     (express) myself without words. I went to a workshop and gradually got good at    4     (produce) things with clay. Here I learned my first important lesson:    5     I was disabled in language, I could still be smart and well express myself with clay. And my confidence came along. 

I got my next lesson from rock climbing. It was a fun thing but I was scared from the beginning. I soon noticed it wasn’t a talent thing; it was practice. So I did it more. After about five years of climbing, I found    6     (me) in Yosemite Valley on a big wall. I learned that if you love something and do it all the time, you will get much    7     (good) at it. 

Later I practised reading and writing every day,     8     I used to avoid as much as possible. After two hard years, I was literate (能读会写的).

For many students, the most important     1    (decide) they must make at school is choosing a career. But choosing the right career     2    (be) not easy. So how do you find one that you will enjoy? Before you choose a career, think about your interests and your talents, and then think about jobs     3     fit them. Ask yourself: What do I enjoy doing? What do I do well? Next, learn about your career choices. See if the library has books     4    (describe) different kinds of work. Also, try out careers by taking part­time jobs. Then consider what is important to you. Perhaps you like     5    (work) face to face with people. If so, a job as     6    computer programmer may not be the best choice.     7     you like getting a monthly salary, then starting your own business probably is not for you.     8    (final), remember that you can always change your mind. Most people change jobs several times during     9     (they) workeing life. Your first job right after college probably will not be your career thirty years from now. Allow yourself to change if you are not     10    (satisfy) with your chosen career.

The Budj Bim Cultural Landscape has long been regarded as a wonder of ancient engineering. The water system in Australia    1     (build) more than 6, 000 years ago—long before even the Egyptian pyramids took shape.

Ancient inhabitants of the region made the system of channels and dams as an    2    (extraordinary) complex trap for the eels(鳗鱼) that locals depended on for food. Budj Bim was recognized as    3    World Heritage site today, but few suspected the system ran so far and so deep.

In fact, it took a disaster for Budj Bim    4    (reveal) itself in all its former glory. Bushfires,    5    (spark) by record temperatures and lasting drought, have burned away the thick leaves covering the water system,    6    (allow) the full scale of Budj Bim to emerge from the flames.

The Egyptian pyramids were made with materials that were plentiful nearby, and    7    was Budj Bim. It was made with the area’s most ready resource: volcanic rock. Those building blocks came from the lava of a now-inactive volcano,    8     the ancient people used to redirect waters from Lake Condah—waters heavy with eels.

Now the Aboriginals still call parts of the area home, and their population    9    (decline) dramatically since Europeans arrived on the continent. But their    10    (achievement) stand the test of time—even if it took a tragedy to reveal them. It’s an important acknowledgement of the work their ancestors have done.
