One day just before closing time, John rushed into    1     TV store to buy a color TV setwith the money he     2     (save) for three months. The friendly shop assistant was waiting for the day's last and     3     (twenty) customer to reach her sales target for her bonus,     4    she warmly greeted John and showed him the various     5     (model) on display. She asked John to see     6     clear and colorful the image on the screen was. At that moment, a new commercial advertisement came onto the screen,     7     (introduce) a popular brand of camera as well as some beautiful pictures it had taken. The camera     8     (attract) John. He     9     (sudden) changed his mind and told the shop assistant “Thank you for the TV commercial advertisement. Now I have to hurry to the camera store     10     (get) that camera.”

Mr. Li was good at music and also liked folk     1     (tale) when he was young. After he retired, he began to travel around the country to collect them. Whenever he collected a folk tale, his face     2     (light) up. About two years later, he returned to his hometown with a great many interesting folk tales. It was he     3    set the program Reading Tales in his village in motion. There was a trend that each family set aside some time for reading tales every day. In addition, he was so innovative that he     4     (compose) a lot of soft music for the old people in his village. In his spare time, he also made some lovely toys using some used wires and other materials.       5    contrast, his wife was less active. She often did some housework and seldom went out.

I knew I    1    (choose) a job with a lot of stress but I love what I do. The thing about being a teacher is that you have access to children’s minds    2    they are open and eager to learn. If what I do as a teacher can help turn a child like Graham into such a successful adult, then I know what I’m doing is worthwhile. As John Dewey, the famous educationalist, said, “Education is not    3    (prepare) for life; Education is life itself.”

A long time ago, a little boy was walking through a park. In the middle of the park there was a tree     1     a sign on it. The sign said “I am a magic tree. Say the magic words and you will see.”

The boy did everything     2    (guess) the magic words. He tried abracadabra, tan-ta-ra, and many more…, but none of     3    (they) worked.

Extremely     4    (tire), he threw himself on the ground, saying, “Please, dear tree!”     5    (sudden), a big door opened in the trunk. Inside it everything was dark, except for a sign     6     said “Carry on with your magic”. Then the boy said, “Thank you, dear tree!” With this, the inside of the tree     7    (light) up brightly and showed a pathway     8    (lead) to a big pile of toys and chocolate.

The little boy brought all his     9    (friend) to the magic tree, and they had the best party ever. This is     10     people always say that “please” and “thank you” are the magic words.

One day, Nick invited his friends to supper. He was cooking some delicious food in the kitchen. Suddenly, he     1     (find) that he had run out of salt. So Nick called to his son, “Go to the village and buy some salt, but pay a fair price for it: neither too much     2     too little.”

His son looked       3     (surprise). “I can understand why I shouldn’t pay too much, Father, but if I can pay less,    4     not save a bit of money?”

“That would be a very     5     (reason) thing to do in a big city, but it could destroy a small village like ours,” Nick said.

Nick’s guests,     6     had heard their conversation, asked why they should not buy sale more cheaply if they could. Nick replied, “The only reason a man would sell sale at a lower priced would be because he was desperate for money. And anyone who took advantage     7     that situation would be showing a lack of respect for the sweat and struggle of the man who worked very hard to produce it.”

“But such a small thing couldn’t     8     (possible) destroy a village.”

“In the beginning, there was only     9     very small amount of unfairness in the world, but everyone added a little,     10     (think) that it was only small and not very important, and looked where we had ended up today.”
