问题     Australians always take great pride in displaying their mateship to others. This was built up bit by bit when the first【S1】______began to explore a living on the vast, wild land. At that time, convicts and free immigrants had to fight together against the【S2】______nature which could put them on the verge of risks and disasters at any time. For survival’s sake, they united closely together to share sufferings and happiness.【S3】______, they became good friends who kindly helped each other and often【S4】______co-operation in their exploring undertakings.
    Later as more and more lands were explored, people began to scatter in the great interior individually. They no longer had any helpful neighbors nearby. Sometimes, it would be months【S5】______they met a passing stranger. Feeling lonely, they would of course be delighted to see each other and greet each other friendly and politely【S6】______of their background.
    Nowadays, this【S7】______has been extended: when your car breaks down on the highway, especially with an old man or child, passing cars will surely stop to offer help. If your car needs a mechanic, they will seek【S8】______for you in a nearby police station. If, for instance, you are wandering along a street with a worried look, someone may come up to you and ask, "Anything wrong? Can I help you?" When you are found really sick, kind Australians will accompany you to a hospital.
    If you are a newcomer to an Australian city, and ask for directions, you can always get the【S9】______information you want from almost anyone, old or young. When you cannot speak English well enough, they will try every means to make you understand them. Sometimes, they may also offer you a free【S10】______to the place you intend to go.
    As our world is getting more and more modernized especially in the cities, people are becoming more indifferent to each other. This makes the Australian mateship even more unique.
