完形填空。
In 2004, I was 22 years old and had just come back to Brazil after 14 months in England, holding my
Cambridge Proficiency certificate. After nervously
1 a short training course, I began to give classes to
my 12 students, all of them older than I was. I

3 they wouldn't
find out how unconfident I felt most of the time. I was quite
4 , actually, until the end of
5 and the
night of the final oral test.
The test was going to start at 7 pm, and at 6:50, I
16 myself in the teachers bathroom to
17 all the
test questions again. I really wanted to learn the
18 by heart so no one would think I was an inexperienced
tester. The
19 is, I actually locked myself in the bathroom. I
20 couldn't get out! The bell rang at 7 pm
and I could hear the noise in the halls

22 the bathroom
door, but failed.
I heard the cleaning lady's voice and asked for help as
23 as I could. However, she wasn't exactly a

my students gathered outside too, happily saying things like "Aren't we
27 ! No test today!" All I could do
was
28 , and my entire
29 was waiting for me outside, naughty smiles on their faces."
30 ! Teacher."
They said, "We know you are human too!"
They all passed their test. True to the Brazilian style, we all went out for a beer afterwards, and laughed
the whole thing off.
