完形填空

My birthday was a few days ago. Now I’m 24 years old and I’m  1  with teaching. I didn’t remember my birthday until the morning of the 1st. It was just like an ordinary day, no presents, no party, no cake... When I was  2   , I always felt sad that almost nobody remembered my birthday, not even my family. But now I don’t    3  any more, especially this year, from my birthday to next day, not much     4 . This month I have several foreign students   5   Chinese with me. I give lessons privately, so I need to do quite a lot of work before each lesson. So far I’m getting more    6   in teaching foreigners Chinese, and I think it’s a very cool job. When I was at  7 , I wanted to follow these native English speakers. They can   8  to foreign countries and get teaching jobs easily almost anywhere even though they’re not real teachers. I complained Chinese people didn’t have as many chances as people from the West. But now things are  9  . As China is becoming stronger, Chinese is becoming more and more    10  and maybe in the future I can get teaching jobs in foreign countries. I’ll study more and get ready.
