2007年英语中考专题练习----缺词填空 Passage 1 Here’s a story about Ming’s life on the waters. Ming has lived all his life on a wide r 1 in china. His home is a large house-boat with a roof, one of hundreds that move up and down. In about six years he has not once been on l 2 ,but he is never lonely. He is a strong swimmer. In face(实际上),he could swim before he could walk. When he wants to play with his f 3 ,he just swims across to their boats or asks them to v 4 him. Ming’s father is a fishman,but he never u 5 a line or a net(网). Great black birds called cormorants do the fishing for him.
