1、C  born 這是過去分詞做定語來修飾people，表示這種狀態。.
2、B  have different ways of doing something。所以說后面應該接動詞ing的形式。
3、C 根據Arians think they are lovely and gentle ，可推測出他們不可能做錯事。
4、C the other 表示兩者中的一個，other 表示別的，但它是單數，只能表示一個，another則表示另外一個，明顯不符和本文意思。所以應填 others 表示別人。
5、B 根據前文意思可知此處應填simple。
6、C 應該他們不會對任何事道歉，應填anything。
7、D 只有填nothing才符合他們的人物性格。
8、B 對他們這種行為的修飾，應該用fun 表示有趣的意思。
9、B 他們會準備好來談論他們的錯誤。應該用talk about。
10、C write a a formal article ，寫以一篇正式的文章。
11、B 和前面的read it out 相對應。
12、B apology 是可數名詞。
13、B 根據此段可知他們認為犯錯誤很自然（natural）。
14、B unnecessary必要的。犯錯誤很自然，言外之意即為不必道歉。
15、A wait for等待。他們不會等待別人來道歉。
