In many films, whenever Earth faces a disaster, the (solve) is always fleeing the planet spaceship. But now the Chinese sci-fi movie, The Wandering Earth (offer) a different and (encourage) idea. In the film, Earth is being destroyed by the dying sun. In response, humans around the world work together (build) a giant engine system, will push Earth away from the sun. This" ambition" didn't come from nowhere. Up to now "homeland" (have) a soft spot in the hearts and minds of Chinese people. This special cultural background (probable) makes The Wandering Earth different from other films.
The film was released on Feb 5, the first day of Chinese New Year of 2019. It was time when many people had just made the hard journey back to (they) hometowns. So there is only one possible way to tell the story: Earth goes wherever humans go, because it's our home.
I shared one of the lifeboats with the chief engineer, Tom Fenton. I don't 1 the exact circumstances, but the storm continued into the second night. In some ways, we were able to avoid being 2 into the sea. Then as quickly as it had come, the 3 passed. The wind died down and the stormy sea became 4. The clouds drifted away, and the stars came out in the clear sky above. We didn't know where we were or what would happen to us but it was a marvelous(令人惊异的) feeling, just being 5. At night the little boat drifted in the open sea while Tom and I 6 soundly. We were both exhausted. The next morning, I was 7 by brilliant sunshine. At first the bright sun made it impossible to see, but as my 8became used to the light, I was able to look around. There was nothing but the deep blue 9 of the Pacific in all directions. The other lifeboats were gone.
Now that the danger of the storm was over, I began to 10 our other problems. All our supplies were 11. We had no food, no fresh water, and we were somewhere in the South Pacific, 12 hundreds of miles from land. Perhaps we would drift here in the quiet 13 for weeks. It was a frightening thought. My companion was still sleeping. I was about to 14him up when I saw something in the distance. 15away from the sun towards the west, I thought I saw the blue shape of land in the distance.
