Simon: Right. And how many are coming? Did you say about 8?

Linda: Yes, they said 8 at first, but 44 ( change) to 6 this morning.

Simon: Good, we have 5 weeks to prepare. Here are my suggestions. On the first day, a welcome party, then they can visit 45 schools in the district on the second and third days.

Linda: We’ve got to remember this group wants to look at how the Internet is being 46 (use)in the classroom. That’s 47 they are coming for.

Simon: Exactly, 48 I want to ask Mr. Tod to give them a talk on this on the afternoon of the third day.

Passage 2

Sean: What a fine day! Oh, I can spend all my free time 41 (read) on this balcony on

Jean: You don’t know that 43 the balcony faces north, it will get cool in the summer,

but too cold in the winter.

Sean: You don’t have to worry about that. We have the 44 (center) heating system

in winter, don’t we?

in the summer and the warm sunshine in the winter.

___48 (satisfy).

Sean: I’m most 49 (attract) by the price. You know it costs the least in Beijing. Jean: The least? Are you sure? Do you know the developer?

Passage 3 My first football 41 ( compete) was in Nagoya, Japan several years ago. Last year our team went to Seattle, Washington in the USA. We 42 (win) second place. 43 (personal), I think the team that got first place cheated, because they had developed a new type of program just 44 the match began. So we need to encourage our programmer to improve our intelligence too. We are 45 (determine) to create an even 46 (good) system. In a way our programmer is like our coach. She programs us with all 47 possible moves she has seen while 48 (watch) human games. Then she prepares reliable moves to use if a new situation arises. In this way I can make up new moves using my “artificial intelligence”. I would really like to play against a human team, for I have been programmed to act just like them. After all, 49 the help of my electronic brain that never forgets anything, using my intelligence is 50 I’m all about!

And then, 45 dream became clearer and clearer in my mind. I must try my best to escape out of my poor and backward hometown. I worked 46 (hard) at my study than most of my classmates, and, after luckily 47 (succeed) in the national college entrance examination, I realized my dream again: after graduation, I became a citizen working in a city. 48 the first college graduate out of a remote village, my success set 49 example for my folks.
