When the judge had finished  小题6:   he was saying, Ms. Mary opened the big handbag she was carrying and took out her sewing. Without saying a word, she 小题7:          (choose) a needle with a very small eye, and threaded it at the first time.
When she had  小题8:   (success) done this, she took the thread out of the needle again and handed both the needle and thread to the judge, saying, “Now it is your turn. I suppose you can drive a car well, and you have no doubts  小题9:    your eyesight.”
