15．Learning English may be difficult for beginners．There are two （186）basic（base） stages to learn English．The first stage of learning this language would be very （187）interesting（interest）．Once you have a good command of the alphabets（字母），（188）gradually（gradual） you can learn many words．It would always be better to follow the method of reading first，then writing．When you feel （189）that you have understood the words，you can make sentences．This is the most amusing stage to learn．You just think of a sentence in your mother language，and try to set down the same sentence in English．There could be some mistakes，（190）but you should not worry about it．You'd better write the same sentence by（191）making（make） use of many different words till you are satisfied （192）withyour sentence．If you follow this way，very soon you can create sentences of your own．
（193）The second step is learning the grammar．Compared with（194）other languages，English is quite simple and very systematic（系统化的）．There are certain rules and regulations for each and every topic in grammar of this language．As long as you follow the rules and regulations，（195）it would be a difficult task to make mistakes．

On the following morning Henry was wandering on the pavement，when a window behind him was raised，and a gentleman asked him to step in．He （168）was shown（show） into a room where a couple of elderly gentlemen were sitting．A couple of days（169）before these two old and wealthy brothers had been having a hot argument what might happen to a stranger in London without a friend，and with no money（170）but a million-pound bank-note．One said he  （171）would starve（starve） to death； the other said he wouldn't．So they agreed to decide it by a bet．They wrote a  （172）letterwith the million-pound bank-note in it．Then the two brothers sat at the window a whole day watching for the right man to give it to until Henry came along．
After they had his story，one of  （173）them  handed Henry an envelope，and said he would find the explanation inside．After promising （174）notto open it until 2o'clock，Henry took his leave．

12．I will never forget the Christmas I spent in Germany a few years ago．
My family bitterly opposed us when my brother and I said （66）we were going to spend the Christmas holidays abroad．But nothing could persuade us （67）to stay （stay）．Two days（68）beforeChristmas，we went to a small town in Southern Germany．We spent（69）the whole Christmas Eve sightseeing．
There were so many activities in the town that they added to our （70）excitement （excite）．The streets were crowded with people，（71）and/where/in which the shops were full of wonderful things．In the evening，we went to listen to Christmas songs sung by children around the（72）brightly （bright） decorated Christmas tree in the main street．We returned to our hotel late that night，greatly（73）looking（look） forward to the next day when we planned to have a meal at the best restaurant in town．But in the morning the streets were empty．To make matters worse，all the shops including the restaurants （74）were shut （shut）．At last we had to return to our hotel，feeling very miserable（心情糟糕的）．Our Christmas"feast"was a bag of fruits，which my brother had happened to buy the day before．Our thoughts sadly turned to home，（75）wherethe entire family must have been wishing us a"Merry Christmas"at that moment．

10．Persevance，the quality of never giving up when facing great challenges，lies behind every great achievement in anyone's life．With perseverance a lame boy can learn to swim； with persistence a conquered country will win freedom．
Only with strong determination can people fight their way to final victories．Many a famous man has the same experience．They have obtained their status because they have had the will to overcome numerous difficulties．Outstanding athletes go all out to train themselves．Their  w illpower  is beyond imagination．We all have read of great musicians，writers and inventors  have created or discovered breakthroughs recorded in history．Always they have said that they owe all their success to perseverance．As to students，quite a big number of them  have been successful through perseverance．However，acertain group of them just stop half way and their previous efforts turn out to be fruitless．
The  same  is true   of  many rich businessmen．What we usually see are their achievements，but once we go behind the seenes we will find that they have put in a lot of continual steady  efforts Of all countless  exarmples the story of Colonel Saunders is perhaps one of the most
outstanding．The 65-year-old man from Kentucky   had a dream，to start a chain of fried chicken  restaurants all over the world．To rcalize his dream，he knew that he needed a restaurant   to go into partnership with him to open the first restaurant and to fry chicken according to the  secret recipe （配方）he had．Colonel Saunders had knocked on 1008doors before  he finally  found a proper person to co-operate with．It is doubtful whether many of us would have had the perseverance to knock even a hundred doors．

8．Americans think time is money．They say，"You only get so much time in this life； you'd better use it（61）wisely（wise）．"Americans（62）are trained（train） to use their time for constructive activities，（63）soAmericans admire a"well-organized"person．（64）whohas a written list of things to do and a schedule for doing them．They do not waste people's time with conversations or other activities that have no visible beneficial result．
The American attitude（65）to/toward（s）；time is not necessarily shared by others，especially non-Europeans．Non-Europeans are more likely（66）to regard（regard） time as something that is simply there around them，（67）notsomething of great value．In this background，the fast food industry can be seen as a clear example of American cultural product．McDonald's，KFC，and other fast food（68）companies（company） are successful in a country where many people want to spend the（69）least（little） amount of time preparing and eating meals．As McDonald's restaurants spread around the world，they have been viewed as symbols of American society and culture，（70）bringing（bring）not just hamburgers but speed，efficiency（效率），and shiny cleanliness．

7．Every day has the potential to be a good and，in some cases，a great day for you．Few of us get up in the morning （61）thinking （think） that we want this to be a bad day．Yet in many cases the day turns that way because of a person or an event that we worry about．
Think about those small events which can throw you off balance and affect your whole day（62）negatively （negative）．Who（63）stole （steal） your day？Was （64）it a boss，an unruly child，an erratic （难以预料，无常的）driver on the way to work，getting （65）an"F"on a history paper，or an （66）impolite （polite） waiter at lunch that did？
Every day numerous people or events can prevent us from having a good day，if we let them．The key is that we should adopt a positive attitude towards life．We cannot control （67）what happens to us in many cases，but we can control how we react （68）to these events．
Lao-tzu，a Chinese philosopher，（69）said （say），"He who conquers others is strong； he who conquers （70）himself is mighty．"
