Normally, she wouldn’t care about walking, but today, she had an important exam. As she paced __(4)__, wondering what to do, she noticed that on the bench sat a wallet. A great struggle occurred within her mind. Diana thought to herself, “Should I take the wallet to the police now?” Doing so would mean she would miss both the bus and the exam.

neighborhood in Lagos, where more than a hundred thousand people live in houses built on stilts*. Unfortunately, __(3)__ flooding in this region has made permanent buildings on the land impossible.

introduction of the BRAC floating schools has finally enabled the Bajau children __(2)__ education. The large __(3)__, funded by the Australian government and a Bangladesh charity, includes a fleet* of seven floating schools serving villages in the Basilan, Sulu, and Tawi-Tawi provinces.

8. Education is a key to success. When some countries are __(1)__ in education, there are

Thus, it is clear that education gives people a chance to __(7)__ poverty and poor health. Unfortunately, it is challenging for a country __(8)__ education for all its citizens.

political will, and poor quality of human and material resources leaves some regions weaker than others. For people __(9)__ in some areas, surviving is already a difficult task.

9. In some parts of Cambodia, children do not have access __(1)__ education. Therefore,
a(n) __(2)__ in rural Cambodia is bringing education to them.

10. Kindergarten classes always take place in a classroom, right? Well, for kids __(1)__ in
Europe, that is not always the case. __(2)__ learning in a regular classroom, some 3-6-year-olds have class entirely outside. These “forest kindergartens” have __(3)__ across Europe over the past fifty years. The basic idea behind them is that most kids spend too much time indoors, where they play with plastic toys and stare at screens. At forest kindergartens, the kids get a chance to spend hours __(4)__ in nature.
Despite the different environment, the purpose of forest kindergartens is pretty much the same as __(5)__ of indoor ones: to take care of and educate young children. Studies show that
__(6)__ is beneficial for kids to spend more time outside. This provides a great __(7)__ for them to learn many things.

experiences enable them to be healthier and more comfortable in a natural setting. By giving kids greater access __(10)__ nature, forest kindergartens are improving their lives. Do you think forest kindergartens would work in your country?

on __(1)__ sides of a village, it didn’t stop them from meeting each other. However, they couldn’t bring the romance to light because their families were of different classes and __(2)__. They even __(3)__ to see each other, but their efforts were in vain. __(4)__, they could never be together. Seeing no way out of the situation, the couple decided to settle the matter once and for all. The girl suggested that they __(5)__ suicide together in the name of love. They soon set a date to carry out the plan.
On the big day, the boy paced __(6)__ nervously in his room. Finally, he picked up his backpack and went to meet the girl.
