As the twins looked around them in disappointment, their father appeared.

Jeff     2    (结巴地说出) their failed plan,     3    (他羞红了脸). “That’s a great idea.

Soon came the delicious smell of French toast and chicken porridge, at which the twins felt a great sense of achievement. With everything settled, father left the kitchen,     4    (承诺道) to keep their secret.

The twins carried the breakfast upstairs and woke their mother up. Sitting up in confusion, mother was greeted with the kids’ smiling eyes and happy giggles.

That’s the biggest surprise I’ve ever had!” It was then that father entered,     7    (回应) mother “That must be the best breakfast ever!” Mother bit into a piece of toast, nodding her head approvingly with great satisfaction.

I used to be a lazy student who often fell asleep in class. Worse still, I associated with bad friends. As a result, I was     1    (落后的) in my studies. It was not until the beginning of the new term that I     2    (开始) to behave well because my English teacher, Miss Yang, a beautiful and attractive lady, kept encouraging me not to give up studying. Under her influence, I was aware of my mistakes and decided to change my     3    (态度) entirely. Every day I     4    (上学) school on time and pay attention to my teachers in class. To     5    (避免) making the same mistakes, I usually attach a note to my desk as a reminder. Knowing that my studies are     6    (糟糕的), I want to improve it badly by making an effort. First, I     7    (醒来) early in the morning to do some reading aloud and attempt to learn the basic knowledge by heart. Also, my teachers are ready to assist me with my studies. With their help, it is not long before I make progress and catch up with my classmates. Not long ago, I participated in an Spoken English Contest on     8    (代表) of my class and I held the firm belief that I would     9    (打败) the other competitors. What astonished everybody was that I attained the championship and was     10    (授予) a gold medal. Now, not only do I go all out to study but I often exercise because only in this way can I keep the balance between study and relaxation.

The hungry bear followed his nose to our camp, which was surrounded by a high wire fence. He pulled and bit the wire. He stood on his back legs and pushed at the wooden fence posts.     1    (恐惧喷薄而出，将我紧紧包围，我已经寸步难行了).     2    (惊恐不已，我觉得两腿发抖，手心冒汗). Beside me was my wife, who was rooted to the ground,     3    (吓呆了).

Mary went back to the manor house in such a good mood. She couldn’t wait to see Colin and tell him about her morning. “Martha! I’m starving!” She announced.

“    1    , Miss Mary, lunch is a bit late today,” Martha apologized. She looked hot and bothered.

“What’s wrong?” Mary asked.

“It’s Master Colin. He’s working his way up to a right tantrum(耍脾气).”

Mary frowned and listened.

Sure enough, the sound of shouting and wailing (哀嚎) could be heard along the corridor. “    2    ? What’s upset him?”

Martha looked embarrassed. “It’s because you didn’t come when he asked for you, Miss Mary.”

“    3    ? How silly!” Mary felt a wave of anger sweep over her. Mary strode into Colin’s room. His face was crimson from screeching. “ What’s the matter with you?” She demanded.

Colin glared at her, “ You didn’t come to see me!” —from Chapter 10, Secret Garden
