Much meaning can be carried clearly with our eyes, so it is often said that 1. can speak.
Do you have such kind of 2. ? In a bus you may look at a stranger, but not too long. And if he finds that he is being 3. at, he may feel uncomfortable.
If you are looked at for more than necessary, you will look at yourself up and down, to see if there is anything 4. with you. If nothing goes wrong, you will feel 5. with the person who is looking at you that way. Eyes do speak, right?
Looking too long at someone may seem to be 6. . But sometimes things are different.

"You're crazy!" some people saw him and said. "Those are chili peppers! You can't just eat them like that! We only put a little 6. of them into food for taste. They are not 7.."
"No, I can't stop!" the man said. "I 8. money for them, and now I must eat them. It's my money!"
The man was stupid, right? But we sometimes do things just like that. We put money, time and effort into something 9. as a business or job. And even though it won't work, and we know there's no 10. that things will change, we still continue just because we've put money, time and effort into it. Sometimes we need to let it go and move on.
