Linda: We‘ve got to remember this group wants to look at how the Inter is being 46 (use)in the classroom. That‘s 47 they are ing for. Simon: Exactly, 48 I want to ask Mr. Tod to give them a talk on this on the afternoon of the third day. Linda: That will fit in very 49 (nice). Simon: And on the last day, they would do some sightseeing. We could take them on the tour of London, but many of them 50 have been there already, and Scotland will be too far away. Linda: Why not take them for a walk along the coast? It should be interesting. Simon: Good idea! Linda. I‘m sure they‘ll like it. Passage 2 Sean: What a fine day! Oh, I can spend all my free time 41 (read) on this balcony on a fine day like this. I like it. Jean: The balcony is very beautiful, but I don‘t like the fact that it 42 (face) north. 7 Sean: Why? What‘s wrong with its facing north? Jean: You don‘t know that 43 the balcony faces north, it will get cool in the summer, but too cold in the winter. Sean: You don‘t have to worry about that. We have the 44 (center) heating system in winter, don‘t we? Jean: Yes, we do. The best houses face south, anyway.

Passage 3 My first football 41 ( pete) was in Nagoya, Japan several years ago. Last year our team went to Seattle, Washington in the USA. We 42 (win) second place. 43 (personal), I think the team that got first place cheated, because they had developed a new type of program just 44 the match began. So we need to encourage our programmer to improve our intelligence too. We are 45 (determine) to create an even 46 (good) system. In a way our programmer is like our coach. She programs us with all 47 possible moves she has seen while 48 (watch) human games. Then she prepares reliable moves to use if a new situation arises. In this way I can make up new moves using my ―artificial intelligence‖. I would really like to play against a human team, for I have been programmed to act just like them. After all, 49 the help of my electronic brain that never fets anything, using my intelligence is 50 I‘m all about!
