Welcome to this passage completion exercise. This is a cloze test where you need to fill in the blanks using words from the given word box. The key skills are analyzing context clues, identifying the correct word forms, and understanding the overall meaning of the passage. Let's examine the word box containing ten words and the passage with multiple blanks to fill.
Now let's learn the strategy for analyzing context clues. First, read the entire passage to understand the overall meaning. Then, for each blank, identify what type of word is needed grammatically. Look at the example: 'putting on a blank' requires a noun, and the context of railway construction suggests 'uniform'. Similarly, 'trained to be a blank' needs a profession, so 'mechanic' fits perfectly. For 'so many blank rules', we need an adjective describing strict rules, making 'rigid' the correct choice.
Now let's work through all the blanks systematically. First blank: 'putting on a uniform' - this refers to work clothing. Second: 'trained to be a mechanic' - a railway construction worker. Third: 'rigid rules' - strict and inflexible regulations. Fourth: 'even for a native Tanzanian' - emphasizing that mosquitoes were bad even for locals. Fifth: 'got a taste of' - experienced or sampled. Sixth: 'forehead as wide as mine' - describing facial features. Seventh: 'until I recovered' - time conjunction. Eighth: 'China deserves our thanks' - merits or earns gratitude. Ninth: 'without Liu' - in the absence of. Note that 'stability' is not used in this passage.
Here is the complete passage with all blanks filled correctly. The story flows naturally from the narrator's introduction to railway work, through the challenges faced, to the friendship formed with Liu Ming from China. For the title, we need to capture the main themes. Several options work well: 'A Friendship Forged by Rails' emphasizes both the railway setting and the friendship theme. 'The Railway That Brought Us Together' focuses on the infrastructure connection. The best choice is 'A Friendship Forged by Rails' because it captures both the construction setting and the central theme of cross-cultural friendship that develops through shared hardship.
