| Jane was not an ordinary girl. She was an extremely popular person due to __________unusual gift.
She was very good at arranging all sorts of__________ and events.
In fact, all the scripts and programmes for our school events __________________ by Jane. We helped her as much as we could but she always did most of the work.
Once I asked Jane if she could help me to make a surprise for my mum. Jane __________ at once.
“I __________ you, no problem,” she said, “But I need to know some details about your mum.”
Jane asked me about what time my mum usually got up and when she went to bed, what food she liked and hated, what her favourite films, colours, and flowers __________.
She asked me a lot of questions and I __________ answer most of them.
I felt uneasy but Jane laughed, “It’s a common thing. Unfortunately, we often do not notice even our own family – our parents, sisters and brothers. If we __________ other people better, we would understand them better.
And we would be much __________ to them, wouldn’t we?”

| “What would you like me to bring you from London?” Dad often asked me this question when he was going somewhere on business. He worked a lot and __________ a lot of time with the family.
We knew that he loved __________ a lot but he was really a very busy person.
And it was his __________ business trip that month.
I thought for a moment and said: “I want a Paddington Bear.”
My dad __________ his suitcase but he looked up at me at once when he heard that.
He was surprised and asked me why I__________ a Paddington Bear.
I didn’t know what to answer. My dad __________ packing and sat down beside me.
“You know, when I was small,” dad said quietly, “that bear was my favourite fictional character.”
I read the book too and I also saw a film about that character. He was a very polite bear who travelled to London from some exotic country. He __________________ in Paddington Station by the Brown family, who adopted him.
The soft toy changed their life and made it much __________.
“Ok. I __________________ you the bear if you want”, said Dad. “And we’ll also see the film about him as soon as I come back. Agreed?”
“Sure.” I was delighted with his plan.

| Have you heard of Band Aid 30? Probably not. Then let me explain what ‘Band Aid’ is. In 1984, Bob Geldof and Midge Ure __________ together a group of British and Irish singers and musicians and produced a song, called ‘Do They Know It’s Christmas?’.
The song was a charity single. The musicians said that the money from the sales __________ to help poor people in Ethiopia, who were suffering from a famine.
The group __________ Band Aid. Over forty singers were involved in the project, including Paul McCartney, Bono, David Bowie and Sting.
In 2014, the group changedits name to ‘Band Aid 30’ because it was the __________________ time the song was recorded. That year, the song aimed to help those who were suffering from the Ebola virus.
Since the time of its birth, the song __________ a lot of money. The money is still used only for charity.
Although the song has sometimes been criticised, over 312,000 __________ of the song have been sold.
Usually, I __________ to music a lot, I have other hobbies.
But one of my friends, who is a __________________ music expert than I am, says that, if the song helps people in need – it can never be a bad thing!

| It started as a normal Monday morning. My alarm clock woke__________ up early in the morning.
I had breakfast, brushed my teeth and __________ outside to catch the bus.
At school I noticed that something was different. I came up to my friend Laura and asked her: “What’s going on? Why __________ everyone so excited?”
“Don’t you know?” she said. “All the teachers __________ for a conference. Only the headteacher and a few of the school staff are here.
The senior students will be teaching us today. They are only two or three years __________ than us. How can they possibly teach us?”
However, she was wrong. Our substitute teacher, a student two grades above, was very serious. He said that he __________________ some French poetry to us.
It was an unusual, but interesting French class. The poem __________ on the board, our new teacher read it and then we discussed the poet’s message, choice of words and other poetical things.
Probably because the teacher was almost the same age as us, we felt relaxed and spoke freely. He also told us several amusing __________ about the poet and his time. When the class was almost over, our substitute teacher invited us to attend the next session of the school literary society.
“I’m the Chairman of the society,” he added, “If you come, we __________________ a special welcome party for new members.”
