1. The Statue of Liberty and Eugène Delacroix’s painting, Liberty Leading the People, have

three things in common. Both artworks were created by a Frenchman. Both were created __(1)__ freedom. And, finally, both include a tribute* to Libertas, the Roman goddess of Liberty.

Liberty Leading the People was painted __(2)__ the Romantic style in 1830. __(3)__, it has come to be associated* with the French Revolution some forty years earlier. It is, however, based on the July Revolution* of the 19th century, __(4)__ was also a significant event in France ’s history.

The painting shows ordinary French citizens who are charging and __(5)__ their guns at the soldiers of King Charles X. In __(6)__ of the brave men is the fi gure of a fearless female

freedom fighter. Her dress is torn, exposing her breasts to the enemy. __(7)__ her left hand is also a gun, in her right the future French flag. This is Libertas, the goddess of Liberty, who is leading the way to freedom.

The __(8)__ duration* of the July Revolution was but 72 hours. By the __(9)__ of the “Three Glorious* Days,” the fighters had won back their precious freedom. The unjust and greedy king had lost his crown and the people of France __(10)__ no longer had to suffer under his cruel rule. Liberty had led them to a better, freer future.

2. Do you throw your food waste in the garbage? If you are someone _ _(1)__ cares about the

environment, you should think about composting*. If you have space outside your home, just create a pile of dirt and throw your food waste onto it. If your property is smaller and your

compost would have to be right __(2)__ your home, use a closed bin. If you live in an apartment, don’t worry! You can buy special warm compost bins that can stay inside your home. The best part is that they’re not __(3)__ smelly!

__(4)__ experts, a good trick is to compost as much brown material (dead leaves, wood, etc.) as green material (food, grass, etc.). If you follow this rule, you __(5)__ get high -quality soil.

Riding their bicycles, they took me __(1)__ the beach. They had a picnic and really enjoyed themselves. Unfortunately, they weren’t __(2)__ careful, because they forgot all about me when they left! Suddenly, the wind picked me up and blew me into the ocean.

I floated for __(3)__ days, until I was eaten by a huge fish. I wasn ’t alone; I saw a

disposable fork next to me. Over the next few days, the fish swallowed __(4)__ bits of plastic.

In addition, the statue itself contains many symbols. There ’s a special meaning behind almost __(4)__ it. The torch in her right hand, for example, stands for the light of liberty that guides people to freedom. The date on the tablet in her left hand reminds us of the end of British rule in America. At her feet are broken chains that sym bolize the fact that __(5)__ is coming to an end. It’s no wonder she’s known as Lady Liberty!

5. I was swimming near the land one day when I noticed something shiny in the water. After

Somehow, that slippery little fish had __(7)__ getting stuck in my throat. This was the moment __(8)__ I first realized that I ’d made a big mistake. It wasn’t a fish like me after all.

I tried __(9)__ some time to cough it back up, but it was of no use. It was definitely stuck. Then I tried to swallow something else, but I just couldn ’t get it down. It was __(10)__ that without food, there was no way I could survive. I guess plastic bags make for a deadly dinner. 註:decent 像樣的 dart 飛奔 prey 獵物 delicate 可口的

It might, however, come as a surprise to many to learn that there is a second Statue of Liberty, __(4)__ is also very much worth a visit.

According to his son, Thulin created plastic bags to save the planet, not to __ ③__ it. Plastic bags were meant to be kept folded up __④__ people’s pockets so that they could easily be reused.
