Word Formation
When I was young, I found language classes rather _____________ (point). I enjoyed other
subjects, but languages were my _____________ (weak). I couldnt understand a word and I used to
_____________ (pronounce) everything. My teachers knew I was an _____________ (ambition)
student who wanted to do well, but I let myself down in languages. My marks were _____________
(accept) in French and German and I wanted to give up. Then one year I went to Germany and
something _____________ (amaze) happened. It all started to make sense. I took _____________
(proud) in talking to people. I didnt feel like a _____________ (fail) anymore and I started to make
progress. In fact, languages became one of my _____________ (strong). I went on to study German at
college and became a good _____________ (communicate).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Its surprising how _____________ (friend) changes. When people are young, they have a
large number of friends with whom they are in _____________ (day) contact. As teenagers, they often
become more _____________ (select) and their circle of friends is normally smaller. However, the
_____________ (important) of friends and _____________ (relation) grows. Teenagers often prefer to
confide in a best friend, while being completely _____________ (communicate) with all adults. Later,
people develop different levels of friends. Their circle of friends starts to _____________ (broad)
and they have different groups to relate to those who live in their _____________ (neighbor),
colleagues, people they just say hi to, along with family and _____________ (establish) close friends.
Retirement is ideally a _____________ (joy) time, with friends often being reunited across the years.
At any stage in life, friends help and support us, and often know us best.
