Imagine you are living in a moving house. Inside the house, there is a small kitchen, bathroom and bedroom.Everything you need is close at hand.
In the US, you can really see these moving houses on the mad. They are called recreational vchicles(RV,房车).People call them houses on wheels. When it's holiday time, the whole family often gets into this lovely house
and hits the road for a trip across the country.
Compared to a real house, this home on the road is small for a family who has to spend every hour of every day together. But the best thing about it is that it changes your journey into a free exploration.
You can drive as long as you like without worrying about finding hotels. Or you can just stop somewhere nice and stay for a few weeks. You may also come across other families who are on road trips. Together, you take out your tents and snacks. It's camping time with a lot of chat and laughter.
Of course, RVs are not always convenient(便利).They can sometimes break down and you have to spend time mending them. But this type of road trip still wins people's hearts because they can go whenever and wherever they want.

When we hear about "the homeless", most of us think of the poor countries. However, it's wrong. The _______ is that the homeless can be found everywhere. For example, we can see many people living on the streets in a _______ country like Germany. Kurt Muller and his wife Rita have spent eleven years making _______ for the homeless of Berlin, Germany's capital. They first _______ in a long and hot summer. They made lots of sandwiches for the homeless when most Germans were _______ on holiday. However, the Mullers soon realized that food wasn't _______. "What these people also need is warmth and _______," says Rita. So they never refused to help the homeless at any time and their home was always _______ to the people who couldn't face another night on the streets.
The couple soon _______ all their time and money, so Kurt visited food and clothing companies to __________ donations (捐赠). Today, over thirty companies donate food and money and a shoe factory __________ new shoes as well. No matter __________ Kurt and Rita offer, they receive no payment for their hard work. Rita says, "We feel like parents, and parents shouldn't __________ money for helping their children." Though they often get __________, they say they will continue with their work because they like the feeling of making a __________ in the world. And their love for the homeless has made many people in Germany give their hands to those who need help.
