4．During an 1899F4tornado （龙卷风） in Missouri，three people，Miss Moorehouse，Mrs．Webster，and her son were caught up in the storm．They （16）were carried （carry） nearly one mile，but were let down so gently （17）that none of the three was seriously injured．Here is Moorehouse's （18）description （describe）of her unbelievable flight．
‘‘I was conscious all the time when I was flying through the air，and （19）it seemed a long time．I seemed to be lifted up，（20）going （go） up to a great height．At one time I was far above the church towers，and seemed to be carried to a （21）distant （distance） place．As I was going through the air，I saw a horse，（22）which was a white one and had a harness （马具） on，floating about with me．By the way （23）the horse kicked and struggled as it was thrown about，I knew it was alive．I was afraid that it would knock into me，（24）but it did not．Finally，I was mercifully landed （25）on/upon the ground unharmed，saved by luck．"

3．Keeping a diary in English is one of the （16）effective （effect） ways to improve our English writing ability．（17）Compared （compare） with other forms of writing，it is shorter and takes （18）less （ little ） time．It can help us to develop the habit of thinking in English．（19）If we persist in this practice，gradually we'll learn how to express ourselves in English．In keeping a diary in English，we certainly run up against many （20）difficulties（ difficulty）．In the first place，（21）it often happens that we have trouble finding appropriate words and phrases to give expression to our mind．Secondly，there are many idiomatic ways of saying things in Chinese．And it is extremely hard for us to put them into English properly．
As far as I （22）am concerned （concern），my  （23）suggestion（suggest） is that we should always have a notebook and a Chinese-English dictionary within easy reach．Whenever something beats us，we can first put it down in our notebook and then consult our dictionary．We can also turn to our English teacher for help，if necessary．In short，I believe that it is （24）of great use to keep a diary in English for （25）the development of our writing skills．

19．The next morning Alex was waiting in the FMA president's suite when Jerome Patterton arrived．Alex filled him in quickly on the Jax report．Then he said，"I want you to give an order to the trust department to sell every share of Supranational we're holding．"
"I won't!"Patterton's voice rose．"Who do you think you are，giving orders-----""I'll tell you who I am，Jerome．I'm the guy who warned the board against in-depth involvement with SuNatCo．I fought against heavy trust department buying of the stock，but no one-----including you-----would listen．Now Supranational is caving in．"Alex leaned across the desk and slammed a fist down hard．"Don't you understand？Supranational can bring this bank down with it．"
 Patterton was shaken．"But is SuNatCo in real trouble？Are you sure？"
"If I weren't，do you think I'd be here？I'm giving you a chance to salvage something at least．"He pointed to his wristwatch．"It's an hour since the New York  stock market opened．Jerome，get on the phone and give that order!"Muscles around the bank president's mouth twitched nervously．Never decisive，strong influence often swayed him．He hesitated，then picked up the telephone．
"Get me Mitchell in the trust department…Mitch？This is Jerome．Listen carefully．I want you to give a sell order immediately on all the Supranational stock we hold…Yes，sell every share．"Patterton listened，then said impatiently，"Yes，I know what it'll do to the market．And I know it's irregular．"His eyes sought Alex's for reassurance．The hand holding the telephone trembled as he said，"There's no time to hold meetings．So do it!Yes，I accept responsibility．"
 He hung up and reached for a glass of water．"The stock is already down．Our selling will depress it more．We'll be taking a big beating．"
"It's our clients-----people who trusted us-----who will take the beating．And they'd have taken a bigger one still，if we'd waited．Even now we're not out of the woods．A week from now the SEC may disallow those sales．They may rule we had inside knowledge that Supranational was about to be bankrupt，which we should have reported and which would have halted trading in the stock．
