On the fourth day of his sojourn, the Time Traveler understands why the Eloi are terrified after nightfall. 【C1】______ Following them, he discovers that they belong to a loathsome, ape-like creature that lopes along before him, eventually disappearing down a ladder into a shaft. The Time Traveler cannot believe that this creature is as human as the Eloi until he realizes that the Morlocks, as they are called, are also descended from the human beings of his time. The world has been divided between the fragile, helpless Eloi, who inhabit the surface of the earth, and the fierce, obscene Morlocks, who clamber about in the darkness of their underground tunnels, like human spiders, emerging only at night. 【C2】______ . The Morlocks, descended from the working class, do all the physical labor, but their brutality and savagery keep the Eloi in mortal terror of the day these servants will revolt.
Certain now that the Morlocks, and not the Eloi, are responsible for hiding his machine, the Time Traveler determines to follow them into their subterranean caverns, despite Weena’s warnings. 【C3】______. He is attacked by them, but by lighting matches before their eyes, he manages to escape above ground. 【C4】______.
【C5】______. As the Time Traveler is running out of matches, he goes exploring the next day with Weena to find some other sources of light. He discovers an ancient palace of green porcelain, apparently a science and natural history museum long forgotten by the Eloi. 【C6】______.
Weena is exhausted after the long trek to the museum, so the Time Traveler decides to camp out with her that night, building a fire to keep the beasts away. 【C7】______ During the night he awakens to discover that his new fire has gone out, his matches are missing, and Weena is no longer there. 【C8】______ . He finds that his first fire has spread through the forest, killing thirty or forty Morlocks.
Sleeping by night, he makes his way back to the sphinx which he is determined to open with a crowbar from the science museum. 【C9】______ . Inside he discovers his machine. 【C10】______. Just as the Morlocks are about to cany him off to suffer Weena’ s fate, the machine hurtles him out of their grasp and far into the future.
(From The Time Machine)
A. The Eloi, obviously the masters, are descended from the nineteenth-century ruling class in England.
B. Later the horrible realization comes to him that the Morlocks live on Eloi meat, carrying off their victims at night
C. Like the other Eloi, Weena is easily fatigued and fearful of the dark, but she loyally joins the Time Traveler in his adventures
D. But when he sees some Morlocks crouching in the woods, he decides it would be safer to spend the night up on a hill where he builds a new campfire
E. But at that instant a group of Morlocks pounce upon him, and it is all he can do to fend them off while he starts the machine
F. The door, however, is already open when he gets there, and, not suspecting a trap, the Time Traveler enters
G. In the dark ruins of an ancient building, he becomes aware of strange eyes staring at him
H. Fearing that she has been abducted by the Morlocks, he searches for her without success
I. The machine lands on a desolate beach where the Time Traveler discovers the only inhabitants are giant, evil-looking crabs
J. There he fortunately finds some matches and wax from which he can fashion a candle
K. The only safeguard against these obscene creatures is light, which they fear as much as the Eloi fear darkness
L. Clambering laboriously into one of the caves, the Time Traveler sees a group of the creatures gnawing at a chunk of meat
