完形填空。
It was the night before the composition was due. As I looked at the list of topics, "The Art of Eating
Spaghetti (意大利面条)" caught my eye. The word "spaghetti" brought back the
1 of an evening at
Uncle Alien's in Belleville
2 all of us were seated around the table and Aunt Pat
3 spaghetti for
supper. Spaghetti was an exotic (外来的) treat in
4 days. Never had I eaten spaghetti, and
5 of
the grown-ups had enough experience to be
6 it. What laughing
7 we had about the
8
respectable method for moving spaghetti from plate to mouth.
9 , I wanted to write about that, but
I wanted to
10 it down simply for my own
11 not for Mr. Fleagle, my composition teacher.
12 ,
I would write something else.
When I finished it the night was half gone and there was no
13 left to write a proper composition
for Mr. Fleagle. There was no choice next morning but to
14 my work. Two days passed before Mr.
Fleagle returned the
15 papers. He said, "Now, class, I want to read you a composition," "The Art of
Eating Spaghetti".
My words! He was reading my words out
16 to the whole class.
17 laughed, then the whole
class was laughing with open-hearted enjoyment. I did my best not to show
18 , but what I was feeling
was pure happiness,
19 my words had the power to make people
20 .
