She then ordered us to【C9】______these words into our exercise-books one hundred times.

Should the【C18】______change received at the store be forgotten or【C19】______? Nobody will know except【C20】______. But you have to live with yourself, and it is always better to live with someone you respect.  [br] 【C10】
