Part 3: Filling in the Blanks
We need to choose the most suitable word from the list: Hard, heavy, look, see, speaks, strong, tells to complete the sentence.
Text: Becky is a kind of actor called a mime. A mime 1 ______ stories silently using just his or her body. Becky and her theater company, Black Box, act without using words. They wear white
Analysis: The sentence describes what a mime does with stories. Mimes use actions and expressions, and the word "tells" fits best in this context to convey the idea of communicating stories, even without words. The other options don't fit grammatically or semantically. "Speaks" implies vocalization, which mimes often avoid. "Look" and "see" are about perception, not narration. "Hard," "heavy," and "strong" are adjectives and don't fit as verbs describing the action of relating stories.
Answer: The missing word is tells.
