You complete each sentence by filling the gap, in lines such as Harry cried ___ tears when he learned that Jane got fired. and Leah put her best foot ___ during the audition., which makes it a relaxed bit of practice.

A neat thing about these phrases is how vivid they are, since picturing crocodile tears or hanging on for dear life makes them easier to remember once you learn them.
