From a teacher's (2.1 diary/dairy): Last night I (2.2 assess) a batch of essays that my Grade 11 class (2.3 write). The topic was, "What I want to do when I leave school." I put my pen down and (2.4 lean) back in my chair, (2.5 frown) at the books on my table. This (2.6 be) the (2.7 ten) essay in which the learner had written some (2.8 various) on the theme of, "I want to be the CEO of a large company and earn a massive salary!"

As I sat (2.9 there/their), I (2.10 wonder) (2.11 weather/whether) these Grade 11 learners, so close to the end of (2.12 there/their) school career, (2.13 understand) the difference between goals and dreams. There is nothing (2.14 ________) with dreams, but a few (2.15 achieve) short-term goals along the way would make it (2.16 easy) to bring those dreams within reach.
