     May and Ann are twins (双胞胎). They look the same, but they are {#blank#}1{#/blank#}from each other in many ways (在很多方面).

One day, May and Ann go {#blank#}2{#/blank#} together. In the first shop, they see a pretty T-shirt. It's made of {#blank#}3{#/blank#} and feels very comfortable. But it costs much. Ann says she wants to {#blank#}4{#/blank#} one. But May won't. “{#blank#}5{#/blank#} doesn't grow on trees. We must {#blank#}6{#/blank#} it wisely (明智地),” she says, “300 yuan for a T-shirt? I don't think we {#blank#}7{#/blank#} a T-shirt like this. A cheap one can be nice, too.”

Ann doesn't listen to May. “We can ask our {#blank#}8{#/blank#} for the money. They want us to look {#blank#}9{#/blank#},” she says.

     “No, I don't think so,” May answers. 

     So, {#blank#}10{#/blank#} do you think is right? Would you like to buy the T-shirt if you were Ann?
