2021高考英语短文故事精读与语法填空训练（七） 一：语法填空训练 Fully insured  全保险 Insurance companies are ( normal) willing to insure anything. Insuring public or private property is a standard practice in most (country) in the world. If, however, you were holding an open air garden party or a fete it would be equally possible (insure) yourself in the event of bad weather. Needless to say, the bigger the risk an insurance company ( take), the higher the premium you will have to pay. It is not uncommon ( hear) that a shipping company has made a claim for the cost of salvaging a sunken ship. But the claim made by a local authority to recover the cost of salvaging a sunken pie dish must surely be unique. Admittedly it was an ( usual) pie dish, for it was eighteen feet long and six feet wide. It had been (purchase)by a local authority so that an enormous pie could be baked for an annual fair. The pie committee decided that the best way to transport the dish would be by canal, so they insured it for the trip. Shortly after it was launched, the pie committee went to a local inn to celebrate. At the same time, a number of teenagers climbed on to the dish and (hold) a little party of their own. Dancing proved to be more than the dish could bear, for during the party it capsized and sank in seven feet of water. The pie committee telephoned a local garage owner arrived in a recovery truck to salvage the pie dish. Shivering in their wet clothes, the teenagers looked on while three men dived repeatedly into the water to locate the dish. They had little difficulty in (find) it, but hauling it out of the water proved to be a serious problem. The sides of the dish (be) so smooth that it was almost impossible to attach hawsers and chains to the rim without damaging it. Eventually chains were fixed to one end of the dish and a powerful winch was put into operation. The dish rose to the surface and was gently drawn towards the canal bank. For one agonizing moment, the dish was perched precariously on the bank the canal, but it (sudden) overbalanced and slid back into the water. The men were now obliged to try once more. This time they fixed heavy metal clamps to both sides of the dish so that they could ( fast) the chains. The dish now had to be lifted vertically because one edge was resting against the side of the canal. The winch was again put into ( operate)and one of the men started up the truck. Several minutes later, the dish was (successful) hauled above the surface of the water. Water streamed in torrents over its sides with such force that it set up a huge wave in the canal. There was danger that the wave would rebound off the other side of the bank and send the dish plunging into the water again. By working at tremendous speed, the men managed (get)the dish on to dry land before the wave returned.
