The first person to arrive was Tony Garcia from Colombia, closely {#blank#}1{#/blank#} by Julia Smith from Britain. After I met them and then introduced them to each other, I was very surprised. Tony {#blank#}2{#/blank#} Julia, touched her shoulder and kissed her on {#blank#}3{#/blank#} cheek! She stepped back {#blank#}4{#/blank#}surprised and put up her hands, as if in 50．{#blank#}5{#/blank#}. I guessed that there was probably a {#blank#}6{#/blank#}misunderstanding. Then Akira Nagata from Japan came in smiling, together with George Cook from Canada. As they were introduced, George reached his hand out to the Japanese student. Just at that moment, however, Akira bowed {#blank#}7{#/blank#}his nose touched George's {#blank#}8{#/blank#} hand. They both apologized－ another  {#blank#}9{#/blank#} mistake!

    Mary and her husband Dimitri lived a tiny village of Perachora. One of Mary's prize {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (possess) was a little white lamb which her husband had given her, She kept it {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (tie) to a tree in a field. One evening, however, the lamb was missing. The rope had been cut, so it was obvious that the lamb had been stolen.

    When Dimitri came in from the fields, his wife told him {#blank#}3{#/blank#} had happened. Dimitri at once set out to find the thief. After telling several of his friends about the theft, Dimitri found out that his neighbour, A1eko, had suddenly acquired a new lamb. Dimitri {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (immediate) went to Aleko's house and angrily accused him {#blank#}5{#/blank#} stealing the lamb. He told him he had better return it or he would call the police. Aleko {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (deny) taking it and led Dimitri into his backyard. It was true that he had just bought a lamb, he explained, but his lamb was black. {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (shame) of having acted so rashly, Dimitri apologized to A1eko for having accused him. While they were talking it began {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (rain) and Dimitri stayed in A1eko's house until the rain stopped. {#blank#}9{#/blank#} he went outside half an hour later, he was {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (astonish) to find that the little black lamb was almost white. Its wool, which had been dyed black, had been washed clean by the rain!

    Astronauts are people who go out into space. Being an astronaut is an exciting job. While in space, astronauts can look down and see {#blank#}1{#/blank#}（cloud）, land, and water. They can even see the moon up close. Astronauts get the chance {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(see) more stars than you or I have ever seen. Being an astronaut may be exciting, {#blank#}3{#/blank#} it is not an easy job. A person who {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(want) to be an astronaut has to study for years. There are many things an astronaut must learn to do before going into space.

    The cheongsam is a female dress with distinctive Chinese features and enjoys a growing {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (popular) in the international world of high fashion. The name "cheongsam", {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(mean) simply "long dress", entered the English vocabulary from the dialect of China's Guangdong Province. In other {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(part) of the country including Beijing, however, it is known as "qipao", which has a history behind it.

    After the early Manchu (满族) rulers came to China, the Manchu women normally wore a one-piece dress which came to be called "qipao". {#blank#}4{#/blank#}the rule of the Qing Dynasty was ended in 1911, the female dress survived the {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(politics) change and, with later improvements, has become the traditional dress for Chinese women.

    The cheongsam, {#blank#}6{#/blank#}neck is high, collar closed, fits well the female Chinese figure, and its sleeves may be either short, medium or full length, depending {#blank#}7{#/blank#}seasons or tastes. In addition, it is not too difficult {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(make). Nor does it need too much material. Another beauty of the cheongsam is that, they can {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(wear) either on casual or formal occasions. In either case, it {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(create) an impression of simple and quiet charm, elegance and neatness.

    The man who is going to fix our roof must be {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(honest) person my husband and I have ever met.

    My husband knew the back roof of the porch was fine and wanted {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(see) what this roofer would say when he gave his estimate. He told my husband that the back roof was just fine and then gave the estimate for the rest of the roof:$2,400.

    He called last night to tell us he could do the roof on Monday but {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(tell) us he had measured the roof {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(correct) by forgetting to add on the front part of the roof.{#blank#}5{#/blank#} instead of giving us a new estimate, he told us he {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(go) to do the roof for what he quoted us.

    My husband asked him what the correct estimate would {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(be).He said,"$3,000."Well, that's what I had thought it would be so that's {#blank#}8{#/blank#} I set aside. My husband was simply {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(amaze) at this roofer.

    The roofer doesn't know our decision that he'll get the $3,000.He's honest and is planning to be responsible for the mistake. My boss was kind to me when I made some {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(mistake) in the past and now I get a chance to pass this on to others.
