　　Passage 17

　　Dear Editor,

　　I used to be a doctor in the children’s department of a local h  1  . Sometimes I treated children w   2      have been poisoned(中毒) by medicine for older family members. The children can easily o   3    the bottle that we now use in China.

　　Some days ago I talked about medicine w  4    an American. He showed m  5    a plastic pill bottle that is “Childproof”(防儿童的). The design was s  6   simple that I’m sure our Chinese factories could produce these b   7    easily. The top of the bottle locks, but can be o   8    by pressing down on it while turning. This is d   9    for most young children to do, b   10    adults can open them without any difficulty.

　　I’m sure that the expense of making such tops would be very low. As a doctor, I’d love to see this done. And most parents would be grateful.

　　Passage 18

　　Climbing a mountain is hard work. But one step after another finally brings a person to the t  1   . Along the way, he can stop and look a   2   . And the h   3    he climbs, the more wonderful his view(视野) is. If he keeps climbing, he will have a new world before him. He will have a new way of t  4    everything.

　　Now learning a f  5   language is something like climbing a mountain. This new language can give you a new view of life. And it is more than a look at the surface(表面) of things. It can open the way into people’s minds and hearts, into a culture(文化) very d  6   from the one of your own. This will make you richer, e   7   in things that money can’t buy. Even though you never set foot on a ship or a plane, you can be an armchair w   8    through books.

　　Like the mountain climber who stops now and then to l   9    at the scenery around him, everyone who is interested in reading will find p   10    in books as he fights on to learn more and more of that new language.
