Slowly he sinks deeper and deeper until at last he is gone, buried in the treacherous(不可信的)earth The solid ground was solid only in【B2】______.

The subsurface water may have come from a spring, a river, or a stream. Sometimes pools of water near beaches become filled with sand.

Is it true that a man who steps into quicksand【B5】______ die? No, four men have fought their way from quicksand to firm land again.

Quick movements will make the sand yield【B8】______, but then it rushes and settles solidly around the body.
A man trapped in quicksand should either【B9】______, or not move at all, except to stretch out his arms. When the weight of the sand his body has【B10】______ equals his weight, he will stop sinking. With feet held still, and slow movements of arms, as in the backstroke in swimming men have managed to roll to safety and reach firm ground.
