順藤摸瓜，首先是藤，你拿到文章之後要重點讀第一句。
瞻前顧後，在文章空格的上下文處，你覺得這個地方需要什麼詞，帶著這個目的到四個選項里找。

Snow fell past the men's basket, and they could see more snow on the ground. The men tried to throw out some more sand; but it was hard. They tried to break the icy sand with their knives, but it was not easy. The work was slow and they were still falling, so they had to drop some whole bags of sand. One of them fell on an icy lake and made a black hole in the ice.

the train and open the windows.You can see many interesting things on

railway station or a bus stop.Also you can carry many things with you
in a car.But sometimes there are too many cars on the road.
