1 • are you ever impatient? when? why? well, i think that every student is rather impatient when he or she is waiting for their mark for a well-done test or some credit work. so am i.
i am always disappointed very much if the teacher doesn’t have time enough to check up our works and doesn’t tell us the marks at the following lesson. i’m impatient to know the result of the work.
2. • have you ever been dishonest? what did you do? there are some situations when people are dishonest trying to do the things better. better than they are. once i bought a copybook with a very nice picture for myself. i liked the picture and the copy book very much, but when i came home i saw admiration in my younger sister’s eyes while she was looking at the copy book and at the cover with a beautiful picture. so i decided to tell her that i had bought that copy book really for her. i still remember her smiling grateful eyes…
by the way, her attitude towards me became better after that.
3 • when would you be impolite?
i really can’t imagine a situation when i could be impolite.
i’m always polite - everywhere and with anyone! i always remember the golden rule: your attitude to other people should be just the same that you want them to have towards you.
4 • what kind of things do you find inconvenient? well, just being rude, impolite, dishonest, lazy, greedy, cheeky, bullying, wicked, envying, mean, untidy, etc.
5 • have you ever been dissatisfied with something you bought? why? what did you do?
unfortunately, i have. why? sometimes someone says that the thing is cool or that it matches very much… you bring it home and the more you look at it the more you feel that you are dissatisfied with it. sometimes i try to present somebody with it, but more often i say to myself that next time i should be more careful and shouldn’t buy unnecessary things any more.

it was about 6 pm when i heard a knock on the door. it (1) was jason, my teenage neighbour. he looked cold and upset.
“what’s wrong, jason? ”
“i (2) have lost my key and i can’t get into my house.”
“come in. today’s not a day for long walks, or long waits,” i looked out the window. it (3) was snowing hard and it was windy. the weather was getting (4) worse every hour.
jason (5) took off his coat and boots. his (6) feet were wet and i gave him a pair of socks to change into. a cup of hot tea and some biscuits soon made the boy feel warm.
“where are your parents, jason? ”
“i (7) don't know. i can’t call them because of this,” he pulled his phone out of his pocket and showed it to me – the screen (8) was broken and the phone was obviously dead.
jason focused on the food again. he took his (9) fourth biscuit and said: “i wish my mum could make biscuits like this.”
