I have learned that we should pursue our dreams regardless of what other people have to say. An ordinary person can become a hero, and wonderful things do happen when we are determined and committed. Most important of all, we should believe in ourselves!5-3 Text A: Language focusWords in use1. annual2. contract3. distinction4. substantial5. furnished6. amateur7. assemble8. react9. apparent10. magnificentWord building: Practice Word building: Practice-11) bore2) fascinate3) amusing4) explosion5) assumption6) evolution7) compensation8) contribute9) elementary10) revolutionaryWord building: Practice-21. assumption2. fascinated3. explosion4. elementary5. compensation6. evolution7. amusing8. bore9. contribute10. revolutionary Banked cloze1) amateur2) endurance3) individual4) independent5) present6) despite7) developed8) contests9) remarkable10) coined Expressions in use1) passed away2) left behind3) give away4) had no intention of5) Up to6) regardless of7) might as well,might just as well8) fall ill9) in attendance10) to this day5-4 Structure analysis & writingStructure analysis: Practice1) By the fifth night, he had overtaken them all.
