People often don't do what they really want to for fear of failure. You don't apply for a job {#blank#}1{#/blank#}case you don't get it. You don't perform at the school concert b{#blank#}2{#/blank#}others might laugh at you. A lack of confidence can l{#blank#}3{#/blank#} to a lot of suffering. The key to o{#blank#}4{#/blank#}this problem is to believe in yourself. This might be{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(容易)said than done, but there are many w{#blank#}6{#/blank#} to help you do this. Talk about your problem with a friend or look {#blank#}7{#/blank#}advice on the Internet. Imagine yourself being {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(成功）and practice breathing techniques to keep you calm when you get nervous. And the {#blank#}9{#/blank#} important thing is： believe you can do it. When you've{#blank#}10{#/blank#} (学会）to do that, you are well on your way.

    You might want to think twice before purchasing{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(conventional) grown strawberries or spinach(菠菜). According to a new report from the Environmental Working Group(EWG), these foods are the most likely{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(pollute) with the pesticide.

    Even low levels of pesticide exposure can be harmful to infants, babies and young children,{#blank#}3{#/blank#}parents and caregivers should take measures to lower children's exposures{#blank#}4{#/blank#}pesticides while still{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(feed) them diets rich in healthy fruits and vegetables.

    Just last year, the red berry knocked apples and{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(hold) the title of the most polluted. The pesticide increased in strawberries because of out-of-season demand. The most polluted strawberry had traces of 20{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(vary) pesticides.

    Also moving up on{#blank#}8{#/blank#}list this year is spinach. Spinach jumps from the{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(eight) to the second most polluted product. The study finds spinach samples contain more pesticides by weight than all other produce{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(test). In high doses, it can cause damage to the nervous system.

    I had just visited my best friend in hospital with my mum，{#blank#}1{#/blank#}hadn't seen my friend since she'd gone into hospital six months earlier.

    I knew where she was coming from as she was{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(grave) ill, but as I'd been visiting her every week I had stopped seeing the obvious; my friend{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(lose) most of her body weight and her hair was falling out, it wasn't looking good.

    After the visit I took my mum to the station{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(see) her off on her train; the mood was understandably bleak but I stayed positive as well you do, don't you? I went to get{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (we) some coffee and my mum some food for the journey. I misread the amount of my purchase and didn't have enough money.

    {#blank#}6{#/blank#}some reason, this was the straw that broke the camel's back; I burst into uncontrollable{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(tear) as a massive queue was gathering behind me. A woman came up to me and offered to pay, putting an arm round my shoulder, no questions{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(ask).

    I could barely say thank you through the confusion and the flood of emotion that was pumping through me {#blank#}9{#/blank#} running off in embarrassment. After composing myself I ran round the station {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(try)to find this kind lady to thank her properly but never did.

    Researchers examined the benefits of singing among people with mental health conditions {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (include) anxiety and depression.

    They found people who took part in a community singing group improved their mental health and that the combination of singing and socializing was an important part of {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (recover).

    The grassroots action runs weekly singing workshops for the people {#blank#}3{#/blank#} mental health conditions as well as the general public. It {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (original) began at a hospital in 2005, {#blank#}5{#/blank#} afterwards moved into the community. Around 120 people now attend four free workshops each week across Norfolk, two thirds of {#blank#}6{#/blank#} have had contact with mental health services.

    The research project followed the group for six months and {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (undertake) interviews and focus groups with participants, organizers, and workshop {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (leader).

    The report shows how singing and socializing gave participants {#blank#}9{#/blank#} feeling of belonging and wellbeing that often lasted a day or {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (many), as well as improved social skills and confidence.
