(Un)attractive

I noticed Jason once I entered the hall. Tall, handsome, well-built with a

flawless complexion, he gave the impression of being supremely

1________________________ ‎(Обери: devastated, confident, embarrassed,

humble). His sense of humour made him stunningly attractive, and I knew

lots of people who looked up 2 ____ ‎(Обери: at, on, of, to) him. To tell the

truth, I used to be one of those who longed for his attention.

Jason always had a 3 __________ ‎(Обери: wide, big, round, huge) circle of

friends, but what he also had was a tendency to be cruel, even ruthless at

times, when he was 4 ____________ ‎(Обери: of, out, of out, out of) sorts. He

never hesitated to 5__________ ‎(Обери: say, tell, speak, talk) his mind, which

led to our total misunderstanding. Well, appearances can really be deceiving.

A Flat to Rent

You have just entered the university and are now planning to rent a flat.

Before you set off on your journey, find out several things you need to know.

Become Sherlock Holmes for a while, as what you should do is some serious

What's the water pressure like in the shower? Do the locks work well, and

Choosing a Career

Choosing the right career can be the most important decision I must make

this year. For most of 11 ______________ ‎(Обери: today, todays, today's, todays')

school-leavers, its not a problem at all. But I'm still in two minds.

I see 12 ____________ ‎(Обери: my, me, mine, myself) as a famous actor or a

singer, but my dad says that neither singing 13 ______ ‎(Обери: not, nor, or,

but) acting will help me maintain my family. He wants me to have a steady

job with a future. And it looks like we will never understand each 14

__________________ ‎(Обери: other, another, all, and other).

That's why next week, I'm visiting a career counsellor as I hope she might

help me get a better idea about what kind of job suits me. I will definitely

listen to her suggestions, but the decision will be 15 ________________ ‎(Обери:

myself, myselves, mine, my). And the only thing I know for sure is that if you

have a plan for your career, you'll choose jobs that push your skill sets

towards your long-term objectives and foster your relationships with key

people.

Floating School

What does your school look like? A typical three-storey building with a large

with three rows of 16 __________________________ ‎(Обери: two-student, two-

student's, two-students', two-students) desks facing the teacher's desk and

the blackboard? And would you like to attend a boat school?

Ulushi is a nine-year-old schoolgirl in Bangladesh who has her lessons on the

boat deck. Without such schools, she would 17 __________ ‎(Обери: must,

might, have, ought) to take a five 18 ____________ ‎(Обери: miles, mile, miles',

mile's)walk together with a friend of hers. And she 19 __________ ‎(Обери: can,

might, will, can't) have missed out on her education during last spring's

monsoon floods.

It's as plain as day that if schoolchildren can't reach their school, their

classroom should go to them. That is why the boat first picks up the students

from their riverside stops, and once they have docked, the classes begin.

Around two-thirds of the country’s primary schoolchildren study at floating

schools on the boats built in the 20 ____________ ‎(Обери: 1990, 1990s, 1990's,
