has {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (give) me a very bad account of you. He said you
are rude and untrustworthy. Is this correct?"
Peter
thought for a minute and said, "{#blank#}6{#/blank#} Anthony has a bad opinion of

these things."
The old

this, Anthony shouted {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (angry).
In the
end, Peter {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (choose). Peter looked quite common, but he
had impressive inner beauty.
