　　What I need 7 a book that contains (包含) all the words spell 8 . Where can I find it? Properly I shall have to write it 9 ! Of course, I need a book which I can rely on (依靠). If I can't rely on it, 10 is the use of it? Also, it must be a book to carry 11 , so it must be small 12 to put in my pocket.

　　An Englishman 13 I knew to be a university lecturer once told me that 14 the most educated Englishman 15 spell every English word correctly! If he hears a new word which he has never heard before, he cannot be 16 how to spell it! I was so surprised that I wouldn't believe it, but he said, 17 , there are nearly 18 a million words in English, and nobody knows all of them, and secondly, English is not spelled phonetically (根据语音地).

From the time I was seven, I had a dream of becoming a member of the Students Union. I always 36  my school leaders for taking responsibility for all of us. So I dreamed of being a leader.
Years flew by, and soon I was able to participate in the elections,   37  I would win. But the reality struck that I hadn’t had a chance. I wasn’t pretty. Girls across the school hardly knew me. I just did not have what it   38  to win a school election. I was   39 .
As I cried in my room that evening, I   40  took a deep breath and decided I wouldn’t stop dreaming. I decided that I would   41  elections again in my final year at school—and I would win.
I recognized that my   42  had a lot of things in their favor. What were the   43  that would work in my favor? I had good grades, and I was friendly and helpful.
