六、短文填空。
On a cool Tuesday morning in summer vacation, I went to the countryside with my friend, John. But when we 1
arrived
, the weather became very hot. We wanted to go back, but the next bus came three hours later. So we 2
waited
under the tree. In front of us was a small bridge. And we felt very 3
bored
during our stay because we could only watch people sometimes go across the bridge.
Just at that time, an old man with a fishing net walked on the bridge. He looked 4
strange
. He stopped and started to put his fishing net into the river instead of going across the bridge like others. Clearly, he was fishing.
"I think he usually fishes here. You see, he 5
uses
the net so fast. He must be good at fishing," I said.
"Right. Let's go and ask him about how to fish," John said. But what we saw 6
surprised
us when we went near him. In his net, there was 7
nothing
but bags, bottles, shoes, and newspapers. There were no fish!
"Grandpa, you're so unlucky!" we talked to him.
"What do you mean?"
"You came to fish, but you didn't get any," we said. But he didn't seem 8
unhappy
.
"Oh, today is your first time here, right?"
"Yes." We 9
wondered
why he knew it."
Then welcome to our village. And can you help me bring your 10
moving
things back when you leave here?" he asked in a friendly way.
