Curiosity sometimes     be foolish or wrong.Some people with nothing to do are full of curiosity about what their neighbors are doing.They have a strong wish to know what they are bringing home or taking outside, or     they have come home so early or late. To be interested in these things is silly because it is none of their__   to know what their neigh-bours do or are doing. Such curiosity is not only foolish but also harmful. Most probably, it may lead to a small talk which often brings harm or disrespect to others, thus     (hurt)others' feelings.
However, there is a clever curiosity-the curiosity of wise men, who wonder at all the great things and try to find out all they can learn about them.Columbus could never have found America if he    (not be) curious. James Watt would not have made the steam engine     his curiosity about the rising of the kettle lid. All the discoveries in human history have     (make)as a result of curiosity, so the clever curiosity is never about      (important) things which have little or nothing to do with the happiness of       public.
