To talk before the whole class, he was 41 (terrible) shy the moment he thought of so many eyes 42 (stare) at him. He had no other 43 (choose), though. First Jack was to draft the speech, which was just a piece of cake for him because he was a good writer. But the hard part 44 (lie) in his oral presentation, for it was not allowed to read from the paper. He had to give the speech 45 his memory and in front of such a big audience!A real trial began when Jack stood on the platform with his legs trembling and his mind blank. How much time had passed by, he didn’t know. H is listeners were still waiting patiently and without any signs of laughing. Gradually he found himself back, 46 (give) out his speech without much difficulty. After what seemed to be a hundred years, he found the audience applauding. He made47 ! From then on, his fear of talking before an audience disappeared. Actually with his confidence48 (build) up, Jack now turns out to be a great speaker. As we know, the greater difficulty we meet on our way to 49 (success), the 50 likely we will be to achieve our goals.Passage 3Hongbao, a red envelope containing small 61 of money, is a gift that 62 (guarantee) to be warmly received, not just because of the cash, but also because of its traditional symbolism and 63 (good) wishes for the future.

Some say homework is necessary since only practice 41 (make) perfect, while others disagree. In my opinion, daily homework is necessary for students. However, this might be misleading that one may believeall forms of homework 42 necessary. Actually , only proper amount of homework in proper form is 43 ( accept); some homework may not only fail to help the students, but on 44 contrary bore them so much that they may lose their interest in studying. “Proper” homework,in my opinion, should 45 (vary) in its forms, 46 might be some extensive reading, a paper, or even just a game, as well as other ordinary exercise. And it should leave enough 47 (free) to the students so that they could do things they really like to do with self-motivation, rather than unwillingness.

Only if a teacher 49 (keep) this 50 his/her mind, the homework could be of most help to the students.Passage 5A farmer once organized a competition between his dog and his rabbit.

But the dog, after sniffing aroundfor a bit, 44 (lie) down and began to complain about how difficult it was to find one bonein such a big field.The rabbit dug 45 hours, and with every new hole the dog complained even more about how difficult this was, even for the rabbit. 46 the rabbit thought that each hole dug was one hole less that needed to be dug. When there was no place in the whole field 47 (leave) to dig, the rabbit dug a tunnel right to 48 the dog had been lying all the time. There he found the carrot and the bone.This is how the dog lost the game.

Passage 1New books and old ones arrived at the British Museum a hundred years ago, and more people came 61 (read) them. The old reading rooms were 62 (crowd). The air was bad and readers got terrible headaches. The librarian, Panizzi, wanted poor students, as 63 as rich men, to be able to learn. He got a free copy of every new book for the British Museum. Soon, there were three rows 64 books on every shelf and hundreds of books on the floor. Something cheerful happened. Panizzi 65 (he) designed the famous round Reading Room, with a beautiful high roof and forty kilometers of 66 (bookshelf). Some of the equipment was unusual. Cool air came up through small holes in the tables. Hot air in tubes under the floor kept readers’ feet warm. When the new Reading Room opened, there was a party with drinks 67 a large breakfast on the desks. You can imagine 68 wonderful the new Reading Room is! Since then, many famous men 69 (write) there. And the readers can enjoy all kinds of books 70 ( comfortable) in the new Reading Room.Passage 2Passage 3Blood is important to support our lives. But for now, the only way we can get more of it is through donation. And donated blood has its own problems. First of all, certain blood types are extremely rare. Type O negative blood (O-), for example, only 61 (exist) in 7 percent of people, according to Sunday Times. There are fewer 62 (donat e) and therefore there isn’t enough of this type of blood for everybody who needs it. In addition, donated blood comes from various people, which means that it has to 63 (examine) carefully for diseases such as HIV to make sure that it’s safe for trans fusion(输血).This is _64__ scientists all over the world have been trying to make blood in labs. And now, someone finally succeeded—Marc Turner at the Scottish National Blood Transfusion Service has produced blood fit for transfusion, reported Forbes. Different from many __65__ scientists, who have tried to make blood by mixing up different ingredients together, Turner chose to grow blood 66 (direct) from human stem cells. He developed 67 special technique to create a chemical environment similar to that in our bone marrow (骨髓). This environment encourages stem cells to develop fully 68 red blood cell.According to Turner, his artificial blood is 69 (likely) to contain disease viruses or produce side effects. And the best part is that 70 he managed to produce was type O- blood. Not only is it a rare blood type, it’s also a universal type, which means it can be transfused into any patient.Passage 4A recent study suggested that taking a bottle of water into the exam hall could help students improve their grades.According to the study those who brought drinks, 61 (especial) water, with them when sitting their exams performed up to 10 per cent better than those who did not.Comparing their exam results with their normal schoolwork grades, scientists then found that all those who 62 (bring) drinks with them got better grades 63 between 2 and 10 percent.It is unclear 64 drinking water improves exam results. But scientists say having enough water in our bodies and not feeling thirsty could have a 65 (help)effect on our brains.
