We were ____ to write an inclass essay about one of the topics. The following day，she would ____ the corrected and graded essays and each person would be called ____ to stand in front of the class and to ____ his/her essay. The class were required to criticize (评论) that essay，____the grade of everyone in class would be reduced.
