1．Why did the chicken cross the road？
Answer：To get to the other side!
That's an old （ and not really funny） joke，but it came to my mind as I watched people （A）cross the road at the intersection（十字路口） of Jianxin Road and Hezuo Road．
The tragic light was red，so they shouldn't have been crossing the road，and the traffic passing through the intersection was heavy and the cars were moving slowly．（B）一群行人正在等待交通灯的改变． Then one man，who I guess was in a hurry，stepped off the curb （路口） and began weaving his way across the road through the slow-moving traffic．（C）Soon others were following him on this dangerous crossing and more continued to cross against the red fight even as the speed of the cars picked up．They ignored the honking horns of the drivers and just kept going．
Each year dozens of pedestrians are either killed or injured on Tianshui's roads and at least one third of these pedestrians were jaywalking．（D）Jaywalking is an all-too-common （实在太平常的） practice in Tianshui．People cross in the middle of the road or against the red light at intersections．They seem unaware of the danger to themselves or the possibility that they may cause a traffic accident．
（E）Traffic laws are meant to keep us safer so we should obey them．When a chicken decides to jaywalk （擅自穿越马路），stop him and don't follow him．That way you'll get to the other side safely．

101．在（A）处填入一个恰当的词，使句子完整．cross
102．将（B）处句子译成英语．Some pedestrians are waiting for the traffic lights to change．
103．将（C）处句子译成汉语．一会儿其他人也跟着他穿过这条危险的十字路口，即使车已经开始加速了，却有更多的人继续跟着闯红灯过马路．
104．将（D）处句子译成汉语．擅自穿越马路，在天水实在是一种太平常的做法了．
105．将（E）处句子改写为简单句．To keep us safer，we should obey traffic laws．．
