66、或括号内单词的正确形式。No one could say that Katy Perry is an ordinary artist.Her songs are not just about sweet love and heartbreaks, _56_ usually have bigger themes.Take the songs Firework (2010) and Roar(2013) for example, _57_ Perry sings about being our own master and _58_(discover) our true value.Earlier
67、 this year, she _59_(announce) her new album Witness, together with a new idea for pop music. Perry calls her new style “purpose pop”, meaning a _60_(society) and political message.It seems that Perry has become tired _61_ simply encouraging people.Now, she wants to educate them politically as well.

76、 see you killing anything.Thats not the reason why I bought you this gun.” I thought he was afraid that Id learn what real power felt like.Anyway, it was okay with me because I figured Id find many other targets.“Hey, Mike.” I yelled to my friend upon making one of my greatest discoveries.“Check thi

78、many times you shot those things they never broke.Then again, maybe thats why it got boring.A few months later, I found myself walking down the street, gun in hand, searching for new targets.I stopped by a telephone pole, popping off a few shots with nothing better to do.Suddenly, a bird swooped (俯冲

82、, I began to feel a little uneasy.With the night falling, I was on pins and needles.Paragraph 2:When my dad got home that evening, he asked me how my day was. I was dead silent.Dad merely rested his hand upon me and waited with a soft look in his eye.“I.” my voice cracked and I cleared my throat.“I
83、shot a bird.” “Oh?” he replied, his expression unchanging.“Where is the bird now?” I led him to the desk.Seeing the bird, dad smoothed its feathers with his gentle fingers and fixed the broken wing with a bandage.Several days later, the bird was fully recovered.Seeing it fly away, I realized I should use the real power to protect rather than hurt lives.
