Question Try to fill in the missing words: DAN Hi, my name is Dan and I wanted to take a moment to tell you about one of my favorite movies of all time. It is called, “The Princess Bride.” This movie came out in 1987 and I was still a young boy – so I think that is the main BLANK 1 of 19 why I am so fond of it. The story revolves around a girl named Buttercup and her farmhand named Wesley. They fall in love, but there comes a time when Wesley decides to BLANK 2 of 19 to seek his fortune. While he is gone, Buttercup is captured by an evil prince, and the story follows their fantastic journey through a fantasy land as they try to BLANK 3 of 19 the evil prince and reunite. This movie has everything. To quote a line from the movie, “This story has fencing, fighting, torture, revenge, chases, escapes, BLANK 4 of 19 love, miracles…” It has everything for everybody. It’s a great family movie, it’s a great movie for men and women alike. It takes itself seriously, but it also takes time to make BLANK 5 of 19 and have fun with itself. I watched this movie as a kid all the time – so much so that I memorized every single BLANK 6 of 19 of dialogue in the film. And if I watched it today, I would probably discover that I still do have it memorized. One of the characters in the movie is a pirate, and there is a scene where he fences with another guy. And that is probably the most BLANK 7 of 19 part of the film for me. As a young boy I loved this character so much I even dressed up as him for Halloween, and I just loved fencing and sword BLANK 8 of 19. I don’t want to give away too much, if you haven’t seen it – even though I know the film came out 30 years ago – but I really really love this movie so much and I would say that this movie was in part BLANK 9 of 19 for my love of making my own movies. It inspired my BLANK 10 of 19, my ability to dream up new stories and fantasy, and I love making my own stories today – even with my young four boys, we make BLANK 11 of 19 little films. This is a movie that I plan to show them when they are old enough and I hope you get a BLANK 12 of 19 to watch it too. ASHLEY Hello, my name is Ashley and today I’m going to talk to you about my favorite book. My favorite book is titled Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West, and it was written by Gregory Maguire in 1995 and this book BLANK 13 of 19 on the background story of the Wicked Witch of the West. So it focuses on her family life and how she grew up and the BLANK 14 of 19 leading up to her being the Wicked Witch of the West that you see in the Wizard of Oz. So it really focuses on her before the whole Dorothy story came into play. And the reason why I really like this is because it gives one of those BLANK 15 of 19 villains, it gives you their background story – so rather than, you know, kind of being like “oh she’s a villain, I really don’t like her,” you read this story and you’re like “OK, now I BLANK 16 of 19 why she became who she became, and I actually really like this character and I kind of feel BLANK 17 of 19 for her.” This book is also a famous Broadway play titled “Wicked,” and I myself have not seen it on Broadway but I’m hoping that BLANK 18 of 19 I can make it out to New York – hopefully it’s still playing – so I can see it on Broadway. I really suggest this book if you like kind of those satires or getting background stories from your BLANK 19 of 19 movies and books – so yeah, Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West by Gregory Maguire – check it out!
