新一轮中考复习备考周期正式开始， Working in the fields is new to the students. It is entirely different from classroom studies. With great curiosity① and excitement, we students of Senior Two began our learning-from-peasants activities in Jianxing village, Jiang Wan Township, not far from Shanghai. To our disappointment, the first day‘s work was not to till② the land; rather we were asked to pull up weeds③ in the fields. Weeding seems to be as easy as turning over one‘s hand, but not at all. The weeds clustered④ together and there were so many of them, that we could hardly see the crops. Some weeds were so deeply rooted they wouldn‘t be pulled up even by two people. Weeding went on for three days. We all had aching back and legs, yet we were happy to see the fruits of our work. On the fourth day, the boys in our class were required to scoop⑤ up the mud from a riverbed and carry it into the fields. The mud is quite fertile and is used for planting tomatoes. We used handcarts to carry the sludge. It was hard for one boy to push the cart along the muddy path. We exerted⑥ all our strength to move the carts forward.Besides carrying sludge and pulling up weeds, other students filled small plastic cups with soil, while still others carried iron pipes from one place to another.
