Question

Once there was a boy in Toronto. His name was Jimmy. He started drawing when he was three years old,and when he was five he was already very 11        at it. He drew many beautiful interesting pictures,and 12        people bought his pictures. They thought this boy was going to be 13        when he was a little older. And then they were going to 14       these pictures for a lot of money. Jimmy's pictures were quite different from other 15       because he never drew on all of the paper. He drew on 16        of it,and the other half was always 17       .

"That's very clever," everybody said. " 18       other people have ever (曾经) done that before.” One day somebody asked him, "Please tell me,Jimmy. Why do you draw on the bottom (底部) half of your pictures,19        not on the top (顶部) half?"

"Because I'm small," Jimmy said, "my brushes (毛笔) 20       reach (达到) very high."
