He just rides around on the machine that he bought, and the machine does all the work. W: That’s (8) p good, I used to cut grass when I was in high school. But now I think I might work for a road building company, (9) o something like that. M: It would be a good (10) e . And you could earn a lot too. |

Z: I
suppose the class size is bigger? M: That’s for sure, but the students in China are well (1) b and listen carefully, so it’s not a problem. The biggest thing is (2) t the teachers have a different approach in China-here the classes are a mixture of (3) b “students-centred learning” and the more traditional “teacher-centred learning”.

When I come (1) a a good article while reading newspapers,
I often want to cut and keep it. But (2) j as I am about to do so I find the
article on the (3) o side is as much interesting. It may be
a discussion of the way to keep in good health, or (4) s about how to behave and conduct oneself
in society. If I cut the front article, the opposite one is (5) l to suffer damage, leaving out half of
it or keeping the (6) t without the title. Therefore, the
scissors would stay (7) b they start, or halfway done when I find
out the regretful result. Sometimes two things are to be done at the same time, both (8) w your effort. You can only take up one of them, the other has to wait or be given up. But you know the future is unpredictable - the changed situation may not allow you to do what is left (9) . Thus you are caught in a difficult position and feel sad. How come that nice chances and brilliant ideas should gather around all at once? It may happen that your life changes greatly on your preference of one choice (10) t the other. |
