15、ouldn't know he had a problem when you saw him walk. The children in our neighbourhood ran around as most children did during play, and Joey would jump right in and run and play, too.

16、In the seventh grade he decided to __38__ for the crosscountry team. Every day he __39__ with the team.

It was the “differ

28、ence” that drew me to her. The woman didn't feel embarrassed. Instead, she was self-confident and full of life.

30、ng for her. However, she saw obvious value and pleasure in just being there. This woman showed such appreciation, confidence and consideration at the moment.

60、cs say banks made it very easy to get credit cards. But that may be changing. The crisis in the housing and credit markets is beginning to affect the credit card industry. More payments are late.
