（2024·广东广州·一模）Long long ago, people didn’t know how to plant crops, or how to make cloth, or how to make tools. Life was difficult. The god Nyame up in the sky had all the wisdom of the world. He kept it 1 in a pot.
One day, Nyame decided that he would give the pot of wisdom to Anansi. Every time Anansi looked in the pot, he learned something 2 . It was so exciting!
Greedy Anansi thought, “I’ll keep the pot safe at the 3 of a tall tree. Then I can have it all to myself!” He tied the pot to his 4 closely and began to climb the tree. But it was hard to climb the tree with the pot hitting him in the knees.
All the time Anansi’s young son had been 5 under the tree. Then he said, “Wouldn’t it be easier to climb if you tied the pot to your back instead ” Although Anansi had 6 at first, he followed his son’s idea later and it really was a lot easier.
In no time he was high up in the tree. He said to himself with satisfaction, “That’s it! No one can 7 this place!” But then he stopped and thought, “I’m supposed to be the one with all the wisdom, but here my son was 8 than me! How could it be!” With all his strength, Anansi threw the pot down out of the tree 9 .
It broke into pieces on the ground. The wisdom was free for everyone. Then people learned to farm, to make clothes, to make tools, and all the other things.
It’s true that 10 wisdom makes a better world.

When Susan felt ready to return to her job, she was too 63 to get around the city on the bus by herself. Therefore, for two weeks, Mark walked with Susan to and from work each day.
