For years , many adventurers have travelled to the Rocky Mountains in search of hidden treasure. They were on the hunt for a bronze (铜) chest. It was said to be filled     1    diamonds and gold. On June 6, 2020, news broke that the chest was    2    (final) found. The person who found it has chosen    3    (remain) unidentified.

Forrest Fenn is an antiques    4     (collect). He lives in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Fenn created the treasure hunt more than 10 years ago,    5    (hope) it would inspire people to have fun and explore nature. Fenn    6    (publish) a book called The Thrill of the Chase in 2010. In the book, he dropped some tips about    7    the treasure chest was located. The clues (线索) were in a form of a 24-verse poem. Readers had to use the poem to settle the puzzle. This led many explorers down     8    (danger) roads in search of the chest’s location. Fenn says the end of the hunt is bittersweet. “I feel halfway kind of glad, halfway kind of sad because the hunt is over," he says.“I congratulate the     9    (thousand) of people who participated in the search    10     hope they will continue to be drawn by the promise of other discoveries.”

Last week I took a journey deep into space, to the end of the solar system. I bought tickets for     1     (me) and my friends at the park’s entrance,       2    tickets are also available online. Futuroscope is not only for    3    (individual), but is also the perfect mix of fun and learning for class outings. Classes or other large groups that let Futuroscope know    4    (them) plans in advance can get the group admission rate. For anyone    5    (come) from out of town, Futuroscope has many excellent hotels, most of    6    provide a shuttle service to the park. If driving, Futuroscope is within easy reach of the freeway. Plan your trip    7    (good) before starting, since Futuroscope has     8    many shows, activities and great souvenir shops that     9     is difficult to see them all. Come ready to walk a lot—be sure    10    (wear) some comfortable sneakers or other walking shoes!

The backyard barbecue is one of the most famous American traditions. Summer is the best barbecue season. In     1    （place）like Southern California and Nevada, it rarely rains during the summer. The air is dry, much like a desert.     2    is nice to invite friends, neighbors or co-workers to enjoy a summer feast.

Along with the food, outdoor barbecue is a     3    （society）setting. People get together to have drinks and food, and keep up     4    the latest happenings. They meet and talk with each other while     5    （have）a great time. In addition, many people bring their children along. They will have fun playing with each other.

The main     6    （attract）though is the food. People love experimenting with new things     7    （improve）the taste of their favorite meat. Ribs（肋骨）and chicken     8    （consider）at to be the most popular items on the menu. People can cook just about anything. The most wonderful thing about a backyard barbecue is the smell of barbequing food.

The tradition is     9    （especial）are at festivals such as the Fourth of July and Veterans Day. People do not need an excuse to have a barbecue outdoors.     10    they need are just a grill（烧烤架）, some food and good company.

Late in the afternoon, the boys put up their tent in     1    middle of a field. As soon as this was done, they cooked a meal over    2    open fire. They were     3    (hunger) and the food smelt good. After a wonderful meal, they told     4    (story) and sang songs by the camp fire. But some time     5    (late) it began to rain. The boys    6    (feel) tired so they pet out the fire and crept into their tent. Their sleeping-bags     7    (be)warm and comfortable, so they all slept soundly. In the middle of the night, two boys woke up and began    8    (shout). The tent was full of water! They all leapt out of their sleeping-bags and hurried outside.
