填空题I used to hate being called upon in class mainly because I didn"t like attention drawn to myself. And unless otherwise assigned(指定) a seat by the teacher, I always 1 to sit at the back of the classroom. All this 2 after I joined a sports team. It began when a teacher suggested I try out for the basketball team. At first I thought it was a crazy idea because I didn"t have a good sense of balance, nor did I have the 3 to keep pace with the others on the team and they would tease me. But for the teacher who kept insisting on my "going for it", I wouldn"t have decided to give a try. Getting up the courage to go to the tryouts was only the 4 of it! When I first started attending the practice sessions, I didn"t even know the rules of the game, much less what I was doing. Sometimes I"d get 5 and take a shot at the wrong direction— which made me feel really stupid. Fortunately, I wasn"t the only one "new" at the game, so I decided to 6 on learning the game, do my best at each practice session, and not be too hard on myself for the things I didn"t know "just yet". I practiced and practiced. Soon I knew the rules and the "moves". Being part of a team was fun and motivating. Very soon the competitive 7 in me was winning over my lack of confidence. With time, I learned how to play and made friends in the 8 —friends who respected my efforts to work hard and be a team player. I never had so much fun! With my 9 self-confidence comes more praise from teachers and classmates. I have gone from " 10 " in the back of the classroom and not wanting to call attention to myself, to raising my hand—even when I sometimes wasn"t and not 100 percent sure I had the right answer. Now I have more self-confidence in myself.

填空题It"s never easy to admit you are in the wrong. Being human, we all need to know the art of apologizing. Look back with honesty and think how often you"ve judged roughly, said 1 things, pushed yourself ahead at the expense of a friend. Then count the occasions when you indicated clearly and 2 that you were sorry. A bit frightening, isn"t it? Frightening because some deep wisdom in us knows that when even a small wrong has been committed, some mysterious moral feeling is 3 , and it stays out of balance until fault is acknowledged and 4 is expressed. I remember a doctor friend, telling me about a man who came to him with a variety of signs: headaches, insomnia and stomach trouble. No 5 cause could be found. Finally my friend said to the man, "Unless you tell me what"s worrying you, I can"t help you." After some hesitation, the man 6 that, as executor of his father"s will, he had been cheating his brother, who lived abroad, of his 7 . Then and there the wise old doctor made the man write to his brother asking 8 and enclosing a cheque as the first step in restoring their good relation. He then went with him to mail box in the corridor. As the letter disappeared, the man burst into tears. "Thank you," He said, "I think I"m 9 ." And he was. A heartfelt apology can not only 10 a damaged relationship but also make it stronger. If you can think of someone who deserves an apology from you, someone you have wronged, or just neglected, do something about it right now.

填空题Shopping from a catalogue is much more comfortable than shopping in person．Relaxing at home, catalogue customers can forget the pressure of traditional shopping. For one thing, a catalogue gets customers rid of the need for transportation to a department store and the problem of finding a parking place. More importantly, there is no shop assistant to press the catalogue shoppers into buying something they do not want. Best of all, if the customers do not find exactly what they have been looking for in the catalogue, they will not feel that they have wasted their time on a pointless journey; they will have spent perhaps fifteen minutes instead of a few hours, and their feet and legs will not be aching either. It is no wonder, therefore, that many people do their shopping at home.
