1. 
   I am a second year student of Uzbek State University of World Languages. Last year I entered the university after 5 years of failure, that’s why I was _____________________ with happiness. At first everything seemed to __________________ for me, however, it wasn’t so easy to study here. The students were ____________________ with different tasks from various subjects and if they didn’t know how to manage their time they often failed. Even ______________________ might not help you, because most of the students had poor knowledge. Finally most students became so nervous and depressed, after failing the exams and couldn’t meet the deadline, to make matters worse they didn’t get their monthly stipend, so they were in the situation, as ___________________________.
   

2. 
   I never complain of my health. I always feel myself ___________________. However, a couple of weeks ago, I began having troubles with my health. I felt badly day by day. Firstly, it seemed that I am exaggerating everything and making ______________________. Unfortunately, it was really serious case and when I went to my doctor, he told me to go to the hospital and take all necessary medical treatments immediately. At that very moment I had some financial problems and I needed some money to pay the hospital expenses. Therefore I had to ask some money from my friend, we had a good relationship from our school time. I knew it was not an easy thing to ask someone to support you financially, I even regretted that I hadn’t ______________________. As a result, my friend refused to help me, even I had explained her the situation. I was so disappointed from my friend. I remembered that I used to help her at any time when she asked for my help. I couldn’t understand such kind of __________________________ who you can’t rely on.
