One day, a poor boy who was trying to pay his way through school by selling goods from door to door found that he only had one dime left. He was hungry so he decided to 36 for a meal at the next house.
However, he lost his nerve 37 a lovely young woman opened the door. Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water. She thought he looked 38 so she brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it 39 , and then asked, “How much do I owe you?”

Years later the young woman became critically ill. The local doctors were baffled. They finally sent her to the big city, where specialists can be called 43 to study her rare disease. Dr. Howard Kelly, now 44 , was called in for the consultation. When he heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light 45 his eyes. Immediately, he 46 and went down through the hospital hall into her room.
47 in his doctor’s gown he went in to see her. He 48 her at once. He went back to the consultation room and 49 to do his best to save her life. From that day on, he gave 50__attention to her case.

In recent years many countries of the world have been faced with the problem of how to make their workers more productive. Some experts say the ___1___ is to make jobs more varied(多样的). But do more varied jobs ___2___ greater productivity? There is evidence to suggest that ___3___variety certainly makes the worker’s life more enjoyable, it doesn’t ___4___ make him work harder. As far as increasing productivity is concerned, then, ___5___ is not an important factor.
Other experts feel that giving the worker___6___ to do his job in his own way is important, and there is no doubt that this is true. The ___7___ is that this kind of freedom can’t easily be given in the modern factory with its complicated(复杂的) machinery which must be used in a ___8___ way. Thus while freedom of choice may be important, there is usually very little that can be done to ___9___ it.
Another important ___10___ is how much each worker ___11___ to the product he is making. In most factories the worker ___12___ only one small part of the product. Some car factories are now ___13___ with having many small production lines rather than one large one, so that each worker contributes more to the production of the cars on his___14___. It would seem that not only is degree of worker contribution an important factor ___15___ it is one we can do something about.
To what___16___ does more money lead to greater productivity? The workers themselves certainly think this is ___17___. But perhaps they want more money only because the work they do is so boring. ___18___ just lets them enjoy their spare time more. A ___19___ argument may explain demands for shorter working hours. Perhaps if we ___20___ making their jobs more interesting, they will neither want more money, nor will shorter working hours be so important to them.

A wise man once said, “A man who makes no mistakes usually does not make anything.” It took me a long time to gather the 36 to admit that I had been making mistakes since my earliest days. 37 , many of the things that I had learned were 38 .
As a child from a poor family, I learned that when you had money, you were 39 to spend it on whatever brought you happiness 40 . I didn’t understand that even though putting money in the bank would not 41 me that quick joy, it could provide a sense of 42 — I still had that money.
One problem is that I never had an opportunity to 43 any money of my own until late in my teen years. All of my gift money 44 to my parents for “saving”, which actually 45 to be an emergency fund(风险基金) for things such as food.
On rare 46 , some relatives would give me some money, but they would 47 in my ear not to tell my mother and to spend it quickly on something fun. Their 48 was good — they wanted to bring joy to the life of a “ 49 ”boy, but it didn’t teach me any 50 skills. Soon I would go back to having no money.
Another thing is that I believed that 51 help from others was bad. My parents were strict, and in many ways I 52 their philosophy (处事原则), but their personal beliefs prevented them from ever accepting any help. 53 we often had to live on a single part-time income, we never asked 54 anything. In this way, I was led to believe that accepting a helping hand, even in 55 of great need, was a sign of weakness.

Tales of the supernatural are common in all parts of Britain. In particular, there was (and perhaps still is) a belief in fairies(仙女). Not all of these 1 are the friendly, people-loving characters that appear in Disney films, and in some folktales they are 2 and cause much human suffering. This is true in the tales about the Changeling. These tell the story of a mother whose baby grows 3 and pale and has changed so much that it is almost 4 to the parents. It was then 5 that the fairies had come and stolen the baby away and 6 the human baby with a fairy Changeling. There were many ways to prevent this from happening: hanging a knife over the baby’s head while he slept or covering him with some of his father’s clothes were just two of the recommended 7 . However, hope was not lost even if the baby had been 8 . In those cases there was often a way to get the 9 baby back. You could 10
the Changeling on the fire--then it would rise up the chimney, and you would hear the sound of fairies’ laughter and soon after you would find your own child safe and sound nearby.

If you walk through the streets of any big city at six or seven in the morning, the chances are that you will see women hurrying along, pushing prams (婴儿推车). You may see more than one woman 1 on the same door and, as it opens, quickly kiss the child, 2 a package of nappies and hurry off down the street to clock on the early shift in an office, leaving their children to a child – minder – a woman who may be doing the job legally or illegally, well or badly. Brain Jackson, director of the Child – minding Researching Unit, and his colleagues have done a great deal of work in finding out 3 it means for a child to spend the first years of life in the care of a child – minder.
4 law, anyone who looks after a child for more than two hours a day and gets paid must be registered. 5 the punishment is a 6 pounds fine. Local authorities are responsible for the registration and supervision (监管) of minders. The regulations 6 adequate provision (保障) for fire, safety and health. Very few minders can 7 these. Yet, not many districts give financial assistance. “This means,” Brain Jackson says, “that when you have one registered minder tested and proved by the local authorities, you can be sure that you will get a dozen unregistered, illegal minders 8 .”
The researchers found themselves 9 into the role of private investigators when they conduct their 10 . Getting up early to do a “Dawn Watch” following mothers through cold, dark streets and nothing where they left their babies, Jackson says, was a long, slow process.

Michelle is blind, but she makes such good use of her other senses that guests rarely realize that she is blind.
When my daughter Kayla came back from her home, she was very 1 about her day. She told me that she had baked cookies, played games and done art projects. But she was especially excited about her finger-painting project. “I learned how to 2 colors today! Blue and red make purple, and yellow and blue make green! Michelle 3 with us too. She said she liked how the paint feels through her fingers,” said Kayla.
Something about my child’s excitement caught my 4 . this made me sit down and take a look at my child and at myself.
Then Kayla said, “Michelle told me my picture showed joy, 5 and a sense of accomplishment. She 6 saw what I was doing!” Kayla said she had never felt how good finger-painting felt until Michelle showed her how to paint without looking at her paper.
This is when I realized Kayla didn’t know that Michelle was blind. It had just never 7 in conversation. When I told her, she was quiet for a moment. At first, she didn’t 8 me. “ But mommy, Michelle understood exactly what was in my picture!” Kayla insisted. I knew my child was 9 because Michelle had listened to Kayla when she 10 her artwork. Michelle had listened to Kayla’s pride in her work, and her wonder at her discovery of the way colors blend.

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 have some ___1_____ of why the failure is so total. 2 the faults already found out in the education system as a whole, there have been several serious 3 which have a direct effect on language teaching.
The first is the removal from the curriculum (课程) of the thorough teaching of English 4. Pupils now do not know a verb from a noun or the subject of a sentence from its object.
Another important error is mixed-ability teaching, or teaching in ability groups so 5 that the most able groups are 6 and are bored while the least able are lost and 7 bored.
Progress depends on memory, and pupils start to forget immediately they stop having 8 lessons. This is why many people who attended French lessons at school have forgotten it a few years later.
Most American schools have accepted what is necessary and 9 modern languages, even Spanish, from the curriculum. Perhaps it is time for Britain to do the same, and stop 10 resources on a subject which few pupils want or need.

Many cancer patients are finding new hope in an unusual approach to cancer treatment. The common method has been developed by Carl Simonton, a specialist in the science of tumors. 1 can sometimes be "truly amazing," he says, when a cancer 2 lets his mind take part in the treatment.
Simonton remembers that his first patient might have been thought to be a " 3 ” case by some. "He was a sixty-one-year-old man with very severe throat cancer. He had lost a great deal of weight. He could 4 swallow his own saliva and could eat no food.
"I taught him to 5 and mentally see his disease," Simonton says. "Then I had him 6 an army of white blood cells coming, attacking and 7 the cancer cells. The results of the treatment were both exciting and frightening. Within two weeks his cancer had noticeably become smaller and he was quickly gaining weight. I say it was ' 8 ' because I had never seen such a change. I wasn't sure what was going on. I also didn't know what I would do if things went wrong. But 9 didn't go wrong.

Scientists already knew that mice make ultrasonic(超声波) sounds—noises that are too high-pitched(高音的) for people to hear 4 special equipment.
To find out whether mice put such sounds together in song-like 5 , the researchers recorded the sounds of 1 mice. Using computer 6 , they were able to separate the sounds into specific types of syllables(音节), and found the mice produced about 10 syllables per second.
The results showed that nearly all of the mice repeated sequences(顺序) of syllables in different patterns. That’s enough to meet the definition of what scientists 7 song. But not all scientists are 8 _ that what the mice are doing is 9 singing. To prove it, the researchers must show that there’s learning involved. And, they need to __ 10 why the mice sing.
