The waiter came hurrying up. Before I came downstairs I had prepared
carefully for what I must
. I had looked three times in my dictionary to make sure ____the English for “breakfast”. I had tried to get the right
and I had stood in the front of a mirror and twisted my mouth until it ached.
The waiter asked me
I could not understand, but I spoke only my one prepared word “breakfast”. He looked at me in a
way. So I repeated it. Still he did not understand. It was
that English people didn’t understand their language. The waiter
his head and went away, but he came back in a minute and brought a tray with tea, bread and butter--- enough to feed a small army--- and went away. But I was hungry, and I left
. When the waiter came back I thought his face showed a little

People always say that if God closed a door in front of you, there must be a window opened for you. Yes, people always say that, but
31
is the window for me?
I’m not disappointed, just a little worried
32
as my roommate said, “Why are you angry with yourself once you
33
to do anything?” I had no idea. I just can’t
34
myself if I can understand some easy things. Now, I just feel

worse was that actually I didn’t understand what the

it. Sometimes I can’t even find the right words: sometimes I am too shy to

others. I have to admit that I am

The wisest people are always
43
who can take advantage of others’ wisdom. But I was so stupid as to close myself and

46
to get help the next time I have any questions. I can
47
I am not smart, But I shouldn’t hide it. I must
48
it as soon as possible. 49
I will have to waste much more time on it ---just like tonight.
Difficulties always go with me. Go
50
! I can make it.

As I understand, if scientists produced a human clone, there would be a great risk of it having a disease. Nobody seems to understand the ageing process of a clone. It would be terrible if a baby was the age of its parent at
31
. Its cells would grow old fast and it would die young.
32
until the technique is perfectly safe, it should be
33
.
I'd love to have a clone of
34
. I often wish I had a twin sister, someone who
35
me in everything. So why not a clone? Well, the idea
36
be fun but I'm not sure if it would be
37
. I think we would be playing with fire if we let scientists go ahead with
38
cloning. There are so many
39
involved that all research in this area should be strictly controlled.
There are so many arguments
40
cloning that it is difficult to get anyone to consider the possible benefits. I am
41
that it is a technique which could be beneficial. The most obvious use would be for childless
42
. They would be able to have babies with their own genetic material. I don't see what's wrong with that.
Imagine a child
43
up knowing that his or her mother is really a sister or a brother. The emotional
44
on the child would be
45
. Or a child who was cloned from a dead brother or sister. What kind of emotional pressure would they feel, knowing they were made as a replacement for another? The whole idea
46
me!
It's all very good to ban human cloning but scientists should be allowed to
47
research. If they don't, we may
48
important benefits for our society, such as producing body organs. A clone is an
49
copy of a person with the same gene. Therefore, it is the
50
donor for an organ(器官) transplant.
