Passage 1

(09·浙江)

The trip to that city was eye-opening for everyone, and near its end , all the young people in our group began to reflect on what it had meant. We __21__ the first night we had arrived. We had all gone into the markets of the city __22__ the young people could experience its energy. But what we actually saw simply  23  us all –the rundown houses, the children in rags, the people begging for money… Walking home,  24   under a low bridge, we came across  25   families of homeless people seeking a bit of dry ground to sleep on  26   he night.
