During the Middle Ages, kings and noblemen built castles for defense. The lord and his family and their servants lived in the castle. The lord owned the land around the castle, and it was farmed by peasants. In return, the peasants had small plots of land. The peasants didn't get paid, but they raised their own food on their plots of land. The lord also protected the peasants from danger.
Carpenters(木匠) made the first castles out of wood, but that didn't work well. Stone made better, stronger castles, but it was much more expensive. Brave workers had to use high scaffolding (脚手架) to build those walls. Sometimes, the walls were 115 feet tall!
Castles changed over many years. Later castles had double walls that were called curtain walls. If the castle was attacked, the attackers had to break through two walls. Usually, the inner wall was higher than the outer one. During an attack, the drawbridge into the castle was raised. The walls had long narrow openings in them so that soldiers could fire arrows through the holes safely. A large castle took many years to build. A whole army of builders carried out the project under the direction of a master worker. Workers cut and shaped the huge stones. They used mallets (木槌)and chisels(凿子) so the stones fit together well, and they used mortar (灰泥) to stick the stones together. The walls were built with a double row of stone bricks. The workers packed these walls with rubble(粗石), which the peasants helped dig and carry.

3. The following can make a castle difficult to break through EXCEPT _______. A. the drawbridge into the castle B. openings in the walls C. the higher inner wall D. high scaffolding
4. The underlined word “plots” in Para. 1 can be replaced by “______”. A. pieces B. states C. controls D. effects
