Question

  My feelings about science have really changed. I never used to 1        science,but last year I changed schools,and the science 2        at my new school are excellent. The science facilities (设备) are very 3       ,with laboratories that have all the latest equipment. Our chemistry teacher,Mr Longford,takes us to 4        science lectures (讲座) about four times a term,and these are 5        very interesting,as the lecturers are people who have made real discoveries in 6        area of science. The fact is,Canada has 7        firstclass scientists. In the last twenty years,seven Canadian scientists have 8        the Nobel Prize!The Nobel Prize is the highest scientific prize,so we should be very 9        of that.

  I'm becoming more and more interested 10        physics,and have decided that I want to 11       it at university. I'm going to try to go to 12        Montreal or Ottawa University,as both 13        supposed to have good Physics Departments. My parents are quite 14        They always thought I would become an 15        teacher！
