box. Change the forms where necessary.




It is
（
1
）
proposed in this article that television be
（
2
）
prohibit
for
a
period
of
time
each
evening
As
（
3
）
social
scientists
have
long
noted,
excessive
television
watching
damages
a
family's
ability
to
communicate
with
one
another;
and may
（
4
）
actually lead to some forms of mental illness as
well as a rising
（
5
）
rate of divorce. Forcing families to turn off
their
television
set
each
evening
may
indeed
may
indeed
be
a
way of bringing them
（
6
）
together. Therefore, this
（
7
）
proposal
may well be a
（
8
）
worthwhile one. It would, however,
（
9
）
involve
some
difficulty
in
putting
it
into
effect,
as
few
Americans
would
be
willing
to
give
up
a
single
moment
of
television time.

A



Most people in the United States watch TV
, even though they complain
about television sometimes. It's great
（
1
）
fun to watch TV
, and it's easy.
Y
ou
（
2
）
turn on the TV
, sit down
（
3
）
in a comfortable chair, and see
many
（
4
）
interesting things. The people on TV will
（
6
）
make you laugh
and cry. They
（
6
）
will inform you and excite you.
（
7
）
From watching
TV
, you can learn about the
（
8
）
latest news from all over the world,
（
9
）
and you can learn about new developments
（
10
）
in science, art, literature,
and technology. Y
ou can
（
11
）
watch sports on TV
. Y
ou can watch the
Olympics,
（
12
）
or a local sports event. Finally,
（
13
）
in some places, it
is possible
（
14
）
to go to school by watching television.
（
15
）
There are
special classes on TV
（
16
）
for high school and college students. A person
（
17
）
may get al good education at
（
18
）
are some of the
（
19
）
reasons for watching TV
. There are others.

B
These days I don't watch television,
（
1
）
but a few years ago I
（
2
）

used to watch it every night. I was often a
（
3
）
little tired in the evenings
and there are
（
4
）
few forms of entertainment that demand as
（
5
）
little
effort as television. Unfortunately there are a large
（
6
）
number of people
in my family;
（
7
）
some wanted to see one program
（
8
）
while others
preferred another. I was happy to look at
（
9
）
any program, but the others
spent a great
（
10
）
deal of time arguing each night and there was
（
11
）
no way of settling the matter except by selling the set.
（
12
）
Now
everyone at home reads instead.

the
following
passage
with
word
chosen
from
the
Words&Phrases to Drill
box. Change the forms where necessary.
During her high school days Linda made up her mind to write and
illustrate(1)
her own books. When she told her fellow students what she
had decided to do, they
burst into(2)
laughter. Their
laughter(3)
left her
deeply
embarrassed(4)
,
but
she
did
not
lose
heart.
Instead,
she
kept
putting
down
on paper
what
she
felt,
refusing
to
believe
that
it
took
a
genius(5)
to do writing. After she got married Linda had to look after her
children and do all the cooking, cleaning and
laundry(6)
for the family.
But still she managed to fit her
favorite(7)
work in most of the time. So
far she has written
eight books, four of
which have been
published(8)
.
Linda firmly believes that you can write a book so long as you
set your
mind on (9)
it. It doesn't matter what
qualifications(10)
you have. What
does matter is whether you have a great determination to succeed.

A laundry worker wanted to be a writer. On nights and weekends, the
clack-clack
of
his(1)

typewriter
filled

house.
He spent
all

money

manuscripts(2)

Everyone

them. One day the laundry worker read a novel that reminded him
of(3)

manuscript

Bill
Thompson,

house.
It (6)

But (7)
Thompson did

laundry worker had promise as a writer and encouraged him

Over

Sam
Adams
seemed
to be
born
an
industrial
engineer.
Since
his
very childhood, he was an
efficiency(1)
expert, or so he thought. He was
very well organized in his everyday life.
Furthermore(2)
, he tried to get
every family member organized, too. His
amazing(3)
efficiency in doing
everything and his great powers of
observation(4)
provided him with a
good
foundation(5)

for
a
career(6)

in
industrial
engineering.
After
his
graduation.,he
got
a
job
in
a
shirt
factory
to

reorganize(7)

the
assembly(8)
line. It was easy for him to spot the problems. Within a week,
he was able to present his
findings(9)
to the
management(10)
and offer
suggestions(11)
for making the operations more
productive(12)
, such as
broadcasting
background(13)

music,
beautifying
the
environment,
relieving(14)

the
boredom
of
the
workers,
and
firing
whoever
was
holding up(15)
the work flow.
Unfortunately(16)
, his efforts for quality
control did not work out as he had expected.

When
our
children
were
born,
my
wife
Nancy
gave
up
her
job
to
look after
them. A year ago , Nancy and I decided to change
paces(1)
.
Nancy was beginning to get
bored(2)
at home all day. I was working hard
at the time, but I didn't
enjoy(3)
my job. Most of all, I hated
going(4)
to
work
in the rush
hour(5)
every day. I thought Nancy was
the(6)

lucky
one;
she could
organize
her
day
in(7)

her
own
way
—
she didn't
have
a
boss
telling(8)
her what to do. But I
didn't 9)
think of exchanging roles
with her
until(10)
she applied for a job. She got the
job(11)
, at a salary
higher than
mine(12)
. It seemed sensible for her to
take(13)
it and for me
to
stay(14)
at home.






At(15)
first I really enjoyed staying at home and
being(16)
with the
children.
I
now
understand(17)

my
children
better
through
spending
so(18)
much time with them. Btu I must admit, I do find housework very
boring(19)
. Most of my friends are at
work(20)
all day, so I often don't

anyone

women
do
at
home
and
I

understand
some

their
problems(27)

When the
elderly(1)
man entered the pudding shop, his
worn(2)

appearance made it quite
evident(3)
that he could not afford to buy any
of the Christmas puddings that were
laid ou(4)
on the counter. However,
he
sampled(5)
them as if it were his honest
intention(6)
to purchase one.
He appeared
out of place(7)
among the other more
prosperous(8)

looking customers; and, feeling that he had probably
come down(9)
in
the world, I decided top do him a favor by buying him one. To my
surprise, however, he seemed quite insulted by my offer, and immediately
counted out(10)
what little money he had to purchase one for himself.
