My second visit

“I’d like to study it again. It seems a shame to 38 ______ it after two years”.
After a moment Dr Boxer said slowly, “If you’d like, I’d be happy to take you as a pupil, Mr Brown.”Предыдущий формат экзамена: пропуск 33.

A sign of weakness?
What should you do when you realise that you have to apologise? Is it better to swallow your pride and say you’re sorry when somebody is waiting 32 ______ your apology?

She’d have you go and 34 ______ him in the eye and say: ‘I’m sorry I threw the stone at you and I won’t do it again.’ It’s important to name what you did wrong, to show yourself as being regretful in some way and to indicate what might be different in the future.”

Shirley
It was Friday, the thirty-first of May, and it was Shirley’s birthday, her twentieth birthday. Shirley could 32 ______ believe it, but it was true. And she suddenly, and wonderfully, felt quite grown up, very grown up, in fact.
Last night her father had 33 ______ her a lovely young lady, and she had beamed at him, hugged him, and told him she was so happy to have him and Alice, have them as her parents. There was no one luckier than she was; Shirley believed that with all her 34 ______. Last night, over dinner, Alice and Victor praised her and were talking much about how proud they were of her and what she had become, and she had experienced an enormous rush of love and gratitude toward them. Her father had added that she had a wonderful life ahead of her, and she believed him. He always 35 ______ her the truth.
Her dream of going to Cambridge had come true and for the past year she had been living her childhood dream, 36 ______ lectures. She 37 ______ every moment of living in that ancient city of shining spires, gracious quadrangles, and beautiful architecture. It was an extraordinary experience to be in that place of great learning, and she would 38 ______ it with love long after she had left.
She was reading English and French history, her favourite subjects, and one day she hoped to be a historian and give lectures herself and write books.Предыдущий формат экзамена: пропуск 33.

Emily
Emily was disappointed. She finally settled on the one person she felt she could seek advice from. She decided to turn 30 ______ at the docks unannounced and hope George would be around when she knocked on his door.
She didn’t 31 ______either of her brothers who she was visiting. One of them would try to stop her, while the other would feel she betrayed a confidence. Emily could 32 ______wait until her day off, and once she had dropped Luke at school, she took a bus to the dockyard. She had chosen her time carefully: late morning, when George was still likely to be in his office, while her brothers would be fully 33 ______loading or unloading cargo at the other end of the dock. Emily said to the man on the gate that she’d come to apply for a job as a cleaner. He pointed indifferently towards the red-brick building and still didn’t 34 ______her. As she walked towards Spencer House, Emily looked up at the windows on the fifth floor and 35 ______which office was his. She recalled her encounter with Mrs. Gray, and the way she had been shown the door the moment she mentioned her name. Now Emily not only had a job she 36 ______and where she was respected, but she’d had two other offers in the past few days. She didn’t give Mrs. Gray another thought as she walked straight past the building and continued along the quayside.Выберите слово для пропуска 31.

A new coat
At the weekend Dotty went to Anna for tea and Anna’s mother Miranda gasped when she saw Dotty. She had changed a lot. Anna had 32 ______ Dotty to the hairdresser’s and now she had a very beautiful hairstyle with a fringe. 33 ______, Miranda knew that the girls had bought a new suit for Dotty.
“You look completely different with your hair like that,” Miranda said approvingly, then, “Did you bring your suit with you? Anna told me how nice it was.”
Dotty waved a bag at her. “Yes, I did. Anna is going to let me borrow one of her coats which would match my suit. She says I'm not 34 ______ to wear this one now.”
“Well, I certainly agree with her on that point but I think you may take my woollen coat 35 ______ of Anna’s. I never wear it any more so if you like it you’re more than welcome to keep it.” Miranda disappeared to return minutes later with a very smart swing coat in navy blue folded across her arm. “Here, try this on,” she encouraged and Dotty slipped it on. “It’s just perfect,” Miranda told her. “And I have to say it looks so much better on you than it ever did on me. Take it and wear it in good health.”
“But I couldn’t,” Dotty spluttered. “It must have cost a 36 ______ and I really can’t take it.”
“Of course you can,” Miranda said. What good is it to me, hanging in the wardrobe and never 37 ______ the light of day? You’ll be 38 ______ me a favour taking it out of the way.” Dotty was really pleased with Miranda’s present.Предыдущий формат экзамена: пропуск 33.
