　　I like to be near water--sea, lake or river. That is probably 1 I was born in a village by the sea, and have lived most of my life close to water of 2 . When I am in some place which is 3 lake, river and sea. I am 4 and always feel that there is something missing 5 it is sometimes hard for me to decide what it is.

　　Of course, the sports I like are ones which 6 water--sailing, rowing and swimming, It is 7 to swim in small swimming-pools, but rowing and sailing are impossible 8 a lot of water. Rowing is best on a river, 9 sailing on the sea or a big lake, but 10 can do some sailing on a river, and one can 11 row on a lake or the sea when the weather is good.

　　Of the three sports--swimming, rowing and sailing, I like 12 best, because it is the easiest to 13 during the winter, when the water is too cold for 14 swimming and the sea is often too rough for sailing. 15 on the coldest days one can row: only hard 16 on the water, or thick fog stops one. Sometimes it is so cold when I go out rowing that 17 of water freeze wherever they fall. In such 18 , it is not very pleasant to swim: one cannot stay in the water very long; 19 , when one is rowing, one gets warmer the 20 one goes on.

　　Many changes are taking place in the way in which men and women look at their roles in society. We see these roles most dramatically(戏剧性地) in job and business situations. It is no longer 1 to find a male nurse or a female construction worker.

　　The fact that so many women today have 8 the job market and are 9 independent career(生涯) for themselves has 10 the traditional family structure in many ways. For one thing, household work that 11 to be done by women is now often 12 equally by men and women. Men have discovered 13 that they too are capable of preparing the family dinner, 14 than thinking that they are only capable of taking out the 15 .

　　Since I started to work for a 4 company, however, I have done most of my traveling through the Internet. By using the Internet, I have seen the 5 of many cities on my computer screen. And I have really made business 6 , too. With the help of the Internet, I have also got 7 about food in different countries.

Let's make use of information technology more 20 , and have great fun in experiencing the actual world.

　　I was going to Marblehead with my sailboat team. The team was racing down the highway at 85 mph 2 we realized we were 3 . Luckily, we saw a rest area ahead. I had a brand new $20 bill.

　　For the next two years, whenever I was 15 of the“pizza incident”, I would say to myself,“Don't think about it….”

　　I have learned two things from this 16 . Maybe I was a fool for 17 in to my conscience, and being too stupid to appreciate a 18 pizza. But the real lesson is that even if you get away from what you have done, your conscience will 19 up with you.

　　This reflects the saying,“A coward(懦夫)dies a thousand deaths; a hero dies one.”I was a coward and have felt terrible about that incident at least a thousand times. If I had been a“ 20 ”and gone back to pay for the pizza, I would have felt a little uncomfortable about it only once, or maybe twice.

　　People do not analyze every problem they meet. Sometimes they try to remember a solution from the last time they had a 1 problem. They often accept the opinions or ideas of other people. Other times they begin to act without thinking; they try to find a solution by trial and error. 2 , when all of these methods fail, the person with a problem has to start analyzing. There are six 3 in analyzing a problem.

　　 4 the person must recognise that there is a problem. For example, Sam's bicycle is broken，and he cannot ride it to class as he usually does. Sam must 5 that there is a problem with his bicycle.

　　Next the person must find the problem. Before Sam can repair his bicycle, he must know why it does not work. For example, he must 6 the parts that are wrong.

　　Now the person must look for 7 that will make the problem clearer and lead to 8 solutions. For example, suppose Sam decides that his bike does not work because there is something wrong with the brakes. 9 , he can look in his bicycle repair book and read about brakes, 10 his friends at the bike shop，or look at his brakes carefully.

　　After 11 the problem, the person should have 12 suggestions for a possible solution. Take Sam as an example 13 , his suggestions might be: tighten or loosen the brakes; buy new brakes and change the old ones.

　　In the end, one 14 seems to be the solution to the problem. Sometimes the 15 idea comes quite 16 because the thinker suddenly sees something new or sees something in a 17 way.

　　My first performance in front of an audience was coming up soon.

　　I tried as hard as I could to remain 1 , but my heart was racing. I stared down at my sweatcovered 2 hands.

　　I looked up again at the audience, realizing that these were 3 people. They were not just my mum and dad, who 4 say,“Good job!”even if I messed up the entire piece.

　　What if I had the wrong music? What if I played the wrong notes?

　　As it 5 , I was never able to answer these questions because the spotlight was 6 for me. I grasped my hands tightly together, drying off the sweat.

　　Slowly I walked to the mudbrown piano in the 7 of the room. It contained 88 demanding keys, which were waiting impatiently to be played. I swallowed the golfball-sized lump(隆起部分)in my throat and sat down. 8 , I opened the music. Next, I rested my still shaking hands on the ivory keys.
