In the first day when I went to work in a very famous

1．________

restaurant, my boss complained that there were very a few

2．________

people coming for dinner．So I am“invited”to have a meal in

3．________

the restaurant．After ordering two French dishes and some food,

4．________

I began to look frequently at watch timing the serving of the

5．________

meal．Meanwhile, I looked around to see that there was anything

6．________

else wrong there．I wrote something improper down secret．My

7．________

meal was not serving yet．I looked at my watch ：32 minutes

8．________

passed!I realized that wait too long for service was the main

9．________

reasons why the business was poor．Then I wrote a report about

10．________

my findings and presented it to the boss．

A few months after returning the U．S．from Germany, I took

1．________

part in a college course in French．Since I have learned

2．________

to say German well in Germany, I thought it might be

3．________

interested to begin studying another language．At the

4．________

first class, a teacher asked us to do a pronunciation

5．________

exercise, in it he would say a word or two in French, and

6．________

each student would do their best to copy(模仿)．When

7．________

my turn came, he kept having me to say more words, and I

8．________

finally asked him why．“I find it great fun,”he explained

9．________

it．“In 25 years of teaching at school, it's the first time

10．________

I've heard an American speak French with a German accent．”

Proof Reading．

I was only about six that he held his hand

1．________

out to me．I took it in me and we walked．Then

2．________

I ask him,“Grandpa, how come you have

3．________

so much lines on your hand?”he laughed and

4．________

said,“Well, that’s a big question!”He was

5．________

silent for a moment．So he answered slowly：

6．________

“Each these lines stands for a trouble in my

7．________

life．”I looked at his other hands．“But Grandpa,

8．________

what do you have more lines on that one?”

9．________

“Because there are more the honors and joys in my life．”

10．________

Many students want to know about the different between

1．________

American English and the British English．How did these differences

2．________

come about?There is no quick answer to this questions

3．________

At beginning the language in Britain and American was the same．

4．________

In 1776 America becomes an independent country．After that, the

5．________

language slowly began change．For a long time the language in America

6．________

stayed the same, when the language in England changed．

7．________

For example, 300 years ago the Englishman talked about

8．________

“fall”．Today, most of British people talked about“autumn”

9．________

but Americans still talk about“fall”．

10．________

I got to the stadium early so as to find my seat easy．

1．________

The performance begin at 7∶30 pm, when all

2．________

the seats were taken，we, the audience, were so excited by

3．________

the special sound of heavy metal which we couldn’t

4．________

help crying and jump．Suddenly I heard the sharp sound

5．________

of an ambulance and saw a young man taken out of a stadium．

6．________

He must have injured in the excitement, but this didn’t stop

7．________

the concert．It was still went on smoothly．When the

8．________

performance was over; the singer thanked us to our

9．________

enthusiasm and support．We kept cheering for him some time．To tell truth, I’m really crazy about the heavy metal music．I’m sure I’ll be a fan of this popular type of music．

10．________

I was used to be dissatisfied with my English teacher’s

1．________

poor English．I was also tired with her teaching methods,

2．________

they were always slow and boring．However, my attitude

3．________

towards her began to change one afternoon．It was raining

4．________

heavily and I didn’t attend to school．At 5∶30 pm, I received

5．________

a phone call．“Were you all right?”asked my teacher in a

6．________

quiet noise．On hearing her words, I was shocked and my

7．________

heart was flooding with mixed feelings．She was showing

8．________

her concern for me, though I had been happy with her!

9．________

Was she just acting, and had I really misunderstood her?
