Part Iv Cloze (10%)
During a trip to observe wild animals in Africa, I encountered the least brave animal on earth the wildebeest(角马).I sat on a riverbank for three hours watching a group of thousands build 56 the courage to drink water.
More than a million wildebeests 57 northward into the wetlands. It is a long, dry and difficult journey. Frequently. the only available water is the Grumeti River, 68 represents both life and death. Unlike some creatures that can take moisture 59 the grass they eat, wildebeests must drink from the river to live. The river supports other wildlife, including 60 that kill and eat other animals. Though thirsty 61 traveling, the wildebeests stand back from the water sensing possible danger.
Moving slowly toward the bank can 62 hours, as an individual wildebeest steps forward steps back and then carefully steps forward again, More wildebeests gather together and advance, gradually pushing the leaders to the river, 63 they want to go or not. It's been a long time 64 they drink last time, and you feel their anxiety for water Lions are possibly on the 65 , saving energy as they wait for an opportunity for lunch Once the large group moves to the river, lions could 66 , making the group running in a wild and uncontrolled 67 The mad rush would raise a dust cloud that blocks the 68 of the wildebeests nearby. a kill is almost guaranteed.
Sitting on that riverbank, I noticed that a young wildebeest finally stepped ahead and drank while the 69 adults held back. Soon, others began drinking. But 70 lining up along the bank, taking turns, they gathered and pushed. Some had to walk farther into the water than they were 71 to go. Those pushed farther in water got frightened and in 72 frightened the others. They all retreated hastily and returned to their route. Only the few that were 73 enough got a drink. The others went 74 . There was no danger that day. only the wildebeests' fear and 75 courage kept them from drinking.
