Dramatic Peak District, with its genuine steep fells, never fails to astonish me. A car will【C1】______you all round the Peak District【C2】______a morning. It is nothing【C3】______a crumpled green handkerchief.【C4】______, we hear of search parties going out there to find【C5】______travelers. I have never explored this region properly, and so it remains to me a country of【C6】______. I could go on with this list of surprises, but perhaps you had better make your own.
Another【C7】______of our landscape is its exquisite moderation. It has been born of a compromise【C8】______wildness and tameness, between Nature and Man. One【C9】______for this is that it contains that exquisite【C10】______between Nature and Man. The fence and the gate are man-made, but are not severely regular and trim【C11】______they would be in some other countries. The trees and hedges, the grass and【C12】______flowers, all suggest that Nature has not been forced【C13】______obedience. The irregularity and coloring of the cottage make it【C14】______snugly into the landscape, and you feel it might have grown there, because it looks nearly as much a piece of natural history as the trees. In some countries, the cottage would have declared, "Man, the drainer, the tiller, the builder, has settled here. " In this English【C15】______there is no such direct opposition. Men and trees and flowers, we feel, have all settled down comfortably together. The motto is, "Live and let live. " This exquisite【C16】______between Nature and Man explains in part the charm of the older Britain. The whole town fitted snugly into the landscape,【C17】______they were no more than bits of woodland; and roads went【C18】______the easiest way as【C19】______as rivers. It was impossible to say where cultivation ended and wild life began. It was a country rich【C20】______trees, birds, and wild flowers, as we can see to this day.

A Pay Rise or Not
"Unless I get a rise, I'll have a talk with the boss, Henry Manley. "George Strong said to himself. George liked his job and he liked the town he lived in, but his wife kept telling him that his pay was not enough to meet the needs of the family. That was why he was thinking of taking a job in Birmingham, a nearby city about 50 miles away. He had been offered a job in a factory there, and the pay was far better.
George lived in Wyeford, a medium-sized town. He really liked the place and didn't like the idea of moving somewhere else, but if he took the job in Birmingham, he would have to move his family there.
Henry Manley was the manager of a small company manufacturing electric motors. The company was in deep trouble because, among other reasons, the Japanese were selling such things at very low prices. As a result, Manley had to cut his own prices and profits as well. Otherwise he would not get any orders at all. Even then, orders were still not coming in fast enough, so that there was no money for raises (加工资) for his workers. Somehow, he had to struggle along and keep his best workers as well. He sighed. Just then the phone rang.
His secretary told him that George Strong wanted to see him as soon as possible. Manley sighed again. He could guess what it was about. George Strong was a very young engineer. The company had no future unless it could attract and keep men like him. Manley rubbed his forehead (前额), his problems seemed endless.
Henry Manley was already deeply in debt.
