d on December 4,1952. All movement in the town came to a stop. It was almost impossible to drive or ride in anything. The streets which led into the center were filled with __2__ that moved two miles an hour. Soon, however, the traffic was stopped. Being left by their drivers, the buses and cars stood empty in the streets. Many who usually travel by bus took underground (地铁). But there were __3__ many people there that the gates had to be closed. Being caught in the fog, people felt their way along the walls of houses with one hand, while they put out __4__ in front of them so as not to knock against something or somebody.

At the Opera House (大歌剧院) they got through the first act of La Traviata before so much fog had spread into the building that the __5__ could not see the conductor (乐队指挥).

It was a terrible fog, indeed, and as many as 4,000 people in London lost their lives.
