BUYING A HOUSE
Tony and Sheila’s first home was a(an) __1__ house, one of a line
of houses all connected. But several years later when they had a small
child, they found it rather __2__ for three people. They wanted
something more __3__ and so decided to move. They went to a(an)
__4__ and looked at details of the houses he had to offer. They looked
at a __5__ house (one of a pair attached to each other), liked it, and
asked a __6__ to inspect it for them. He said that it was in good
__7__, and they therefore decided to buy it. Luckily they sold their
house quickly and soon a(an) __8__ firm was taking all their furniture
and other possessions to their new home. But already,
after a couple
of years, they are hoping to move again. Tony’s business is doing well
and they want to get a(an) __9__ to design a modern, __10__ house
for them, and a(an) __11__ to build it.

EATING OUT
I’m a terrible cook. I’ve tried hard but it’s no use. I’ve got lots of
__1__, I choose a __2__. I want to cook, I read the __3__. I prepare all
the necessary __4__ and follow the instructions. But the result is
terrible, and I just have a sandwich or some other quick __5__. So I
often __6__. I don’t like grand restaurants. It’s not the expense; it’s
just that I don’t feel at ease in them. First the __7__ gives me a(an)
__8__ which I can’t understand because it’s complicated and has lots
of foreign words. At the end of the meal when I pay the __9__. I never
know how much to leave as a __10__. I prefer __11__ places, like
hamburger shops where you pay at once and sit down and eat
straightaway. And I like __12__ places, where you buy a meal in a
special container and take it home.
