A Life with Birds
For nearly 17 years David Cope has worked as one of the Tower of London’s Yeoman Warders,【C1】______known to tourists as Beefeaters. David, 64, lives in a three-bedroomed flat right at the【C2】______of the Byward Tower, one of the gatehouses. "【C3】______our bedroom we have a marvellous view of Tower Bridge and the Thames. " says David.
The Tower of London is famous【C4】______its ravens, the large black birds which have lived there for over three centuries. David was immediately fascinated by the birds and when he was【C5】______the post of Raven Master eight years ago he had no【C6】______in accepting it. "The birds have now become my life and I’m always【C7】______of the fact that I am【C8】______a tradition. The legend says that if the ravens leave the Tower, England will fall to enemies, and it’s my job to【C9】______sure this doesn’t happen!"
David【C10】______about four hours a day to the care of the ravens. He has grown to love them and the【C11】______that he lives right next to them is ideal. "I can【C12】______a close eye on them all the time, and not just when I’m working. "【C13】______, David’s wife Mo was not【C14】______on the idea of life in the Tower, but she too will be sad to leave when he retires next year. "When we look out of our windows we see history【C15】______around us, and we are taking it in and storing it up for our future memories. "
【C13】
选项
A、Firstly
B、First of all
C、At first
D、First
答案
