The Amber Room      (put) up in 1709. It used to belong      Frederick William I, the first King of Prussia. Peter the Great fell in love with the room on a visit, and in 1716 the King of Prussia sent it to Peter the Great as a gift.
The Amber Room was shipped to Russia in 18 large boxes and put in the Winter Palace in St Petersburg as a part of a European art collection. It was first open in 1746 in the Winter Palace,       it was housed till 1755. In 1755, Czarina Elizabeth ordered the room       (move) to the Catherine Palace in Pushkin. An Italian       (art) Bartolomeo Francesco Rastrelli redesigned the room to fit into its new larger space,      (use) extra amber from Berlin.
   seems hard to believe that boxes of several tons of amber could go missing, and many historians have tried to solve the mystery. Most of them believe     the boxes were destroyed in the Second World War. One of the more extreme theories is that Stalin    (actual) had a second Amber Room and the Germans stole a fake (赝品).
The history of the new Amber Room, at least, is known for sure. The reconstruction (重建),       was based largely on black and white photographs of the original Amber Room, began in 1979 at Tsarskoye Selo and was completed 25 years later.

The old couples refused at first       I insisted.

That little act of      (kind) made everyone who saw it feel good—but it made me feel the best of all!

When he was a little boy, Christopher Cockerell once noticed his mother turning the wheel of her sewing machine with her hand. “Won’t it work quickly if a machine      (turn) the wheel for you?” he asked. “I suppose it will.” said his mother, without paying any attention to him. Christopher knew she always had a lot of work and that she was       stubborn that he could hardly do anything to change     mind. But he wanted to help. In his bedroom there was a toy steam engine      (buy) by his father as a gift to him. “I will make better use of it,” little Christopher said to himself. So, when his mother was not using her sewing machine, he decided to fix the toy steam engine onto it. When he finished      (do) it, he was quite pleased, thinking his mother would like it. “Very clever,” his mother said when she saw it. But then she sat down and went on turning the wheel       hand. “I       (work) like this for too many years,” she explained. Christopher felt very     (disappoint). He couldn’t understand his mother’s      (behave).
This teaches Christopher a lesson that anyone     tries to improve anything has to learn: many people don’t like new ideas.

Umbrella is what we easily forget and leave behind in our daily life. When the weather is fine, we certainly don’t think of it; only when it's raining, we’ll carry it purposefully.
