Patient: Good morning, doctor

Doctor: Morning. What seems to be the trouble?

Patent: It's my vision. I can't see well at night, and when I wake up in the morning, it takes me a few minutes {#blank#}1{#/blank#} I can see clearly.

Doctor: OK. I'm going to take a closer look. Just relax. How {#blank#}2{#/blank#} has this been going on?

Patient: A couple of weeks, I guess — wow, that's bright!

Doctor:{#blank#}3{#/blank#}it hurt when I do that?

Patient: Not exactly. It's just really bright.

Doctor: OK. Please, go on.

Patient: Well, I {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (walk) down to the basement in my house about three weeks ago when I slipped and bumped my head pretty hard on the steps.

Doctor: Where exactly did you hit your head?

Patient: Right on the back. I heard a loud sound, {#blank#}5{#/blank#} everything seemed to be okay.

Doctor: You didn't get it {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(check) out then?

Patient: No, I didn't. Well, a week passed, and all of a sudden I started to have problems {#blank#}7{#/blank#} my sight. I first noticed it when I was driving back home from work. It's gotten {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (bad) over the past week.

Doctor: I'm glad you came. I'm going to order some tests, and I want to make {#blank#}9{#/blank#}appointment for you to see a specialist tomorrow morning. {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (hope), nothing is too serious.

W: What {#blank#}1{#/blank#} wonderful place!

M: I wanted the best restaurant {#blank#}2{#/blank#} your birthday. And I know you like French food. Let's begin with a cocktail(鸡尾酒) and then look at the menu.

W: I don't want to look at it because {#blank#}3{#/blank#} always takes me a year to make up my mind. Any suggestions?

M: I've never been here before, but everything {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (suppose) to be excellent.

W: They have snails(蜗牛)! But I wouldn't dare eat them. They might make me sick.

M: I feel the same way about snails. I think I'll have roast duck(烤鸭). It comes with vegetables and potatoes.

W: {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (sound) good. But {#blank#}6{#/blank#} I like seafood, I'd like {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (begin) with some seafood. And let's have the salad after the main course.

M: Fine. We should have white wine with dinner and champagne(香槟)with dessert since this is {#blank#}8{#/blank#}celebration.

W: Oh, don't forget the cheese. There's nothing like real French cheese.

M: I can see already this {#blank#}9{#/blank#} going to be an {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (enjoy) and delicious dinner.     

- Sounds great! _____

（At 3:00 pm, Tom and Amy are in the classroom.)

Tom: Hi, Amy.

Amy: Hi, Tom. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} What's wrong with you?

Tom: I have a stomachache.

Amy: What did you eat for lunch?

Tom:  {#blank#}2{#/blank#}

Amy: I see. Maybe it is caused by them.

Tom: {#blank#}3{#/blank#}

Amy: Do you often just have snacks for lunch?

Tom: Yes, very often.

Amy: Oh! {#blank#}4{#/blank#} Snacks are bad for health.

Tom: I know that. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} But I really enjoy them.

Amy: Anyway, you should try to eat less.

Tom: You are right. I'll try from now on.

    When we compare ourselves with great people, we may feel very ordinary (平凡的）unimportant. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}, we must remember that those great people were extraordinary (卓越的) The world has more than 6 billion people, {#blank#}2{#/blank#} it is difficult for all of us to be extraordinary. What can we do? We can try to be the {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (good) people that we can possibly be.

    This means that we Deed to be honest and hardworking. We also need to be open-minded and kind to other people. Most {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (importance), we need to be ambitious (有雄心的). We need to always set goals for {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (we) and work hard to achieve these goals.

    Madam Curie and Thomas Edison were hard-working, kind and ambitious, and they {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (work) hard to achieve their goals. Curie gave her life to “ease (减轻）human suffering”. Edison spent his life as an inventor. He invented a camera {#blank#}7{#/blank#} showed movement. Later people used cameras to make modem films.

    A famous writer from Ireland once wrote, "We are all in the gutter (社会底层）but some of us are looking at {#blank#}8{#/blank#} stars.” I often come up with this when I am unable to achieve something. It reminds me that we are all at a lower level {#blank#}9{#/blank#} that we all have a {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (high) goal to work towards.
