Evening classes

Recently I decided to go to evening classes twice a week. During the day I work in a

____________________ agency as a telephonist. It is not a very interesting

____________________ and I get bored. I also got tired of coming home every evening, putting a

___________________ meal in the oven, and then watching TV. So I decided to take up

____________________ as a hobby. Perhaps I should give you an

____________________ for my choice. Learning a skill is a good

___________________ to the problem of boring work. Also, I felt I was a

____________________ because any time I tried to put up a shelf, for example, it always fell down!

Now I am quite a ____________________ woodworker ! I am working on the

____________________ of some furniture at the moment. And although there are only two other girls

in the class , I don't feel any ____________________. I've turned out to be the best student in the

class!

How does the video work?

When I was young, I always dreamed of becoming a famous ___________________. When

I was at school I decided to study ____________________, and then become a millionaire by

inventing a wonderful new ____________________ which would make the world a better place.

Unfortunately, I wasn't very good at technical subjects. Any time I operate any kind of

____________________, something terrible happens. Machines which use

____________________, such as computers or television, always seem to give me a

____________________ shock.

The instruction booklets are always __________________. They never help me at all. Nowadays you

need to have __________________ knowledge just to turn on the video. To my great

____________________ it is always a child of six who helps me out of my

___________________ .

Film review

'Battle for your heart' is the new film starring Hugh Grace. I'm afraid that my first

____________________ was not very favourable. The scenes of violence are

___________________ and the main character, Tony, is simply

____________________. The audience is supposed to feel great

____________________ for Tony, an army officer, who is accused of

____________________ because he fails to attack the village where the

____________________ Miranda lives with her old father. Tony saves their lives, and although the

idea of marrying him has little ____________________ for her, Miranda agrees to it out of

____________________. However, she is still in love with Alex, one of the enemy army, and wants to

remain __________________ to him. The dialogue and the acting are just as bad as the plot. At the

end, I breathed a sigh of _____________________.

This is definitely one to miss!
