Once a group of 50 people was attending a seminar. Halfway through his talk, the speaker stopped and decided {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (create) a group activity. He went around the hall and gave each person a balloon. Each one was asked to write his or her name on the balloon {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (use) a marker pen. Then all the balloons were {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (collect) and put in another room.

    The speaker then led the group to the room full of balloons and asked them to find the balloon {#blank#}4{#/blank#} had their name written on, within five minutes. Everyone was {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (hurried) searching for their name, bumping into each other, pushing each other around. It was chaos. At the end of the five minutes no one could find {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (them) own balloon.

    Now each person was asked to randomly collect {#blank#}7{#/blank#} balloon and give it to the person whose name was written on it. Within two minutes everyone {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (have) their own balloon. When everyone quieted down, the speaker began to talk, saying that this is exactly what was happening in our {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (life)．Everyone is hurriedly looking for happiness, and not knowing where it is.

    Our happiness sometimes lies in the happiness of other people. Give them happiness {#blank#}10{#/blank#} you will get your own happiness.

    She looks like any other schoolgirl, fresh-faced and full of life. Sarah Thomas is forward to the challenge of her new A-level course. But unlike school friends, 16-year-old Sarah is not spending half-term {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (rest). Instead, she is earning £6，500 a day as {#blank#}2{#/blank#} model in New York.

    Sarah {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (tell) that she could be Britain's new supermodel, earning a million dollars in the new year. Her father Peter, 44, wants her to give up school to model full-time. But Sarah, {#blank#}4{#/blank#} has taken part in shows along with top models, wants {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (prove) that she has brain as well as beauty. She is determined to carry on with her {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (educate).

    She has turned down several {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (invitation) to star at shows in order to concentrate on her studies. After school she plans to take a year off to model full-time before going to university to get a degree {#blank#}8{#/blank#} engineering or architecture.

    Sarah says, “My dad thinks I should take the offer now. But at the moment, school {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (come) first. I don't want to get too absorbed modeling. It is {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (certain) fun but the lifestyle is a little unreal. I don't want to have nothing else to fall back on when I can't model my more.”
