Why do Americans display such　40 in a public place？I thought the movie would help improve my English, but as it 41 ,it was an Italian movie. 42 about an hour I decided to give up the movie and 43　my popcorn. I’ve never understood why they gave me so much popcorn！It tasted pretty good , 44. With time going by, I understood 45 of the romantic­ sounding Italians. I just heard the 46 of the popcorn chewed between my teeth. My thought started to 47.I remembered when I was in South Korea, I 48 to watch a host on TV frequently. He seemed like a good friend to me, until I saw him　49　on TV in New York speaking　50　English instead of perfect Korean. He didn’t　51　have a Korean accent！I felt like I had been betrayed (背叛)．

Near the theatre there lived　 24　 actor named John Wilkes Booth, who was strongly against the 25 though he hadn't fought for the South himself. As the play 26　　 after a moment for a rest, Booth came into the theatre. He walked slowly and quietly 27　 the door through 　28　 he could move into the President's box. He looked 　29　 carefully so as to find the guards 　30　 were protecting the president from the enemy. To his joy, there was none of 　31　 and nobody noticed him. He reached the door quickly and began to hold the gun in his pocket.

　　It was quiet in the theatre. Suddenly a terrible sound 　32 in on the play. It surprised everyone and soon everyone looked 33　 where the sound had just come. Smoke was seen 　34　 from the box, where the 　35　 had enjoyed the play all the night! Soldiers hurried 36　 , but it was too 37　 . The murderer had already jumped from the box 38　 to the stage from which he hurriedly ran out of the 　 39　 .

Lincoln, one of the greatest American presidents, was shot and 　40　 early the next morning.

One summer night, on my way home from work I decided to see a movie. I knew the theatre would be air-conditioned and I couldn't face my 　1 apartment.

Sitting in the theatre I had to look through the 　2 between the two tall heads in front of me. I had to keep changing the 　3 every time she leaned over to talk to him, 　4 he leaned over to kiss her. Why do Americans display (展示) such 5 in a public place?

I thought the movie would be good for my English, but 　6 it turned out, it was an Italian movie.

7　 about an hour I decided to give up on the movie and 8　 on my popcorn. I've never understood why they give you so much popcorn! It tasted pretty good, 　 9　 . After a while I heard 　10 more of the romantic-sounding Italians. I just heard the 11 of the popcorn crunching (咀嚼) between my teeth. My thought started to 12　 . I remembered when I was in South Korea, I 　13 to watch Kojak on TV frequently. He spoke perfect Korean-I was really amazed. He seemed like a good friend to me, 　14 I saw him again in New York speaking 15 English instead of perfect Korean. He didn't even have a Korean accent and I 　 16 like I had been betrayed(欺骗). When our family moved to the United States six years ago, none of us spoke any English. 　17 we had begun to learn a few words, my mother suggested that we all should speak English at home. Everyone agreed, but our house became very　 18　 and we all seemed to avoid each other. We sat at the dinner table in silence, preferring that to 19 a difficult language. Mother tried to say something in English but it　 20　 out all wrong and we all burst into laughter and decid-ed to forget it! We've been speaking Korean at home ever since.
