The next day ,when we came to class, there would be two or three topics on the blackboard5to the homework reading. We were6to write an in -class essay about one of the topics. The following day ,she would7thd corrected and graded essays and each person would be called8to stand in front of the class and to9his\her essay.

Mrs. McNamara kept all of our written work in files, it was easy to see the18in writing that had occurred.

There is no one “  22 ” place to begin. Each of us has a different   23 place, and the place where we will be of greatest service has to do with where we most want to   24 .

Our Area of Power is where we feel the most passion to act and have the most   26 that results are   27 .
If we pray for world peace, but have no vision of what this would look like and no faith that our   28 will help, our effect is less than if we pray for peace and harmony in our own   29  with a clear picture of what this means and excitement that healing is possible.

Adults are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practised in the meantime. A man who has not had an opportunity to go swimming for years can ___21___ swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after several decades and still    22   away. A mother who has not    23  the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins "Twinkle, twinkle, little star" or recite the story of Cinderella or Snow White.
  One explanation is the    24    of over learning, which can be stated as following: Once we have learned something, additional learning increases the    25   of time we will remember it.
  In childhood, we usually continue to practise such skills as swimming, bicycle riding long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and    26   ourselves of poems such as "Twinkle, twinkle, little star" and childhood tales such as Cinderella or Snow White. We not only learn but  __27  .
  The law of over learning explains why cramming (突击学习) for an examination, though it may result in a(an)    28    grade, is not a    29   way to learn a school course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A little over learning,    30  , is usually a good investment toward the future.
  21. A. only               B. hardly           C. still               D. even
  22. A. move              B. drive             C. travel             D. ride
  23. A. thought about     B. cared for         C. showed up      D. brought up
  24. A. result             B. law              C. rule             D. cause
  25. A. accuracy          B. unit                 C. limit             D. length
  26. A. remind            B. inform             C. warm            D. recall
  27. A. recite              B. overlearn         C. research         D. improve
  28. A. passing           B. average             C. excellent             D. discouraging
  29. A. convenient       B. demanding       C. satisfactory       D. swift
  30. A. at most          B. by the way       C. on the other hand  D. in the end

“When a customer enters my store, forget me. He is King, ’’said John Wanamaker, who in l876 turned an abandoned railway station in Philadelphia into one of me world’s first department stores.

Now their _28__ will be tested as never before. Taking advantage of shoppers’ __29__ will no longer be possible: people will know—and soon tell others, even those without the internet—that prices in the next town are cheaper or that certain goods are inferior. The internet is working wonders in __30__ standards. Good and honest firms should benefit most.

Being alone in outer space can be frightening. That is one reason why astronauts on solo (单独的) space flights were given plenty of work to keep them  21 . They were also constant communication with people on the earth.  22 , being with people from whom you cannot get away might be even harder than being alone. This is what happens on long submarine (潜水艇) voyages. It will also happen on  23  space flights in the future. Will there be special problem of adjustment under such conditions?
Scientists have studied the reactions of men to one another during long submarine voyages. They have found that the longer the voyage lasts, the more serious the problem of 24  is. When men are  25  together for a long period, they begin to feel uneasy. Everyone has little habits of speaking and behaving that are ordinarily acceptable. In the limited space over a long period of time, however, these little habits may become very  26 .
Apparently, although no one wants to be  27  all the time, everyone needs some degree of privacy. When people are enclosed together, they are in what is called a stress situation. That means that they are under an unusual amount of  28  or stress.
People who are well-adjusted are able to  29 stress situations better than others. That is one reason why so much care is taken in  30  our astronauts. These men undergo a long period of testing and training. One of the things tested is their behavior under stress.

One topic is rarely mentioned in all the talk of improving standards in our schools: the almost complete failure of foreign-language teaching. As a French graduate who has taught for more than twenty-five years, I believe I have some idea of why the failure is so total.  21  the faults already found out in the education system as a whole — such as child-centred learning, the “discovery” method, and the low expectations by teachers of pupils — there have been several serious  22  which have a direct effect on language teaching.
The first is the removal from the curriculum (课程) of the thorough teaching of English  23 . Pupils now do not know a verb from a noun, the subject of a sentence from its object, or the difference between the past, present, or future.
Another important error is mixed-ability teaching, or teaching in ability groups so  24  that the most able groups are  25  and are bored while the least able are lost and  26  bored. Strangely enough, few head teachers seem to be in favour of mixed-ability school football teams.
Progress depends on memory, and pupils start to forget immediately they stop having 27  lessons. This is why many people who attended French lessons at school, even those who got good grades, have  28  it a few years later. Because they never need it, they do not practice it.
Most American schools have accepted what is inevitable and  29  modern languages, even Spanish, from the curriculum. Perhaps it is time for Britain to do the same, and stop  30  resources on a subject which few pupils want or need.
21. A. Due to                 B. In addition to       C. Instead of            D. In spite of
22. A. errors                  B. situations             C. systems               D. methods
23. A. vocabulary           B. culture                C. grammar             D. literature
24. A. wide                    B. similar                C. separate               D. unique

Although I had left school against the advice of my teachers, I had, without telling anyone, tried to  36  my studies in literature at evening classes. It was a tiresome  37  from one end of the city to another and to  38  among adults was uninteresting. I was the youngest in the  39 , so the friendship I knew at school was  40 . I put up with it for a short period. It was  41  long a walk on cold winter’s nights and it was hard to put my  42  into Shakespeare with wet shoes and trousers.

A few days ago, I got a letter from a student. In his letter, he told me, “I have this friend at school. She’s one of my good friends but lately she has been ___36__ strange. When I talked to her the other day, she said coldly, ‘Do I look like I care?’ She was being all strange to me. She told me __37___ she thought I was a bad friend, but she still thinks I am her best friend. I am so confused.”
In my letter in reply, I gave him my advice:
After reading your question, I can understand why you’re confused. It sounds like your relationship with your friend is a little shaky. There could be several reasons for her __38__. For example, maybe she has a lot on her mind and is __39__ a few challenges of her own. She may not feel comfortable talking to anyone about them __40__ and may just need a little time to sort through her own feelings. Or, on the day you talked to her, she could have been having a bad day and didn’t realize she was very cold to you. I could list a few more __41__for you, but you know, __42__, the only person who knows why your friend reacted that way is your friend. My__43__ to you is to tell her how you feel. Let her know she hurt your feelings and ask why on some days she’s nice to you, and on other days she isn’t __44__ nice. It could be that your friend is making some other new friends at school and is having difficulty __45___ her old relationships. Whatever her reasons are, you should let her know that you are a unique, caring person who certainly deserves a good friendship at school, _46__ you wouldn’t have taken the time to write me. If your __47__ with this person fades a bit, it’s OK, because you will develop may other friendships.
