Let me tell you a story. A good friend of mine lives with six hundred animals on an island. Ever s___1___ he left school, he has travelled all over the world l___2___ for animals for his own zoo. He writes books about his travels, and about his wonderful a___3___. The money for his books helps him to p___4____ for all the animal food. My friend told me that when he was looking for water last week （There is not enough water on the island, though there is a lot all around it ）， he f___5___ oil. He n___6___ money for his travels and for his zoo, and a little oil would buy e___7___ water for a long time, but he knows that if he tells anybody else about it, it will be the e___8___ of his zoo and his life’s work. So I think he will not tell anybody e ___9___ you and me about what he found — because oil and water can’t be p___10___ together. Oil may bring greater trouble to his animals than not having enough water. Do you think so?
