This morning, I got a funny feeling. Today I had to give a report in my 1 , and I was afraid to do so for a long time!

Mom came into the kitchen, asking,"Are you ready, 　2 ? "

"Yes, "I answered quietly. 3 in fact I wasn't ready!

On my way 　 4 school, I could feel my heart beating . I hated this!

I went into Mrs Owens' class. She was smiling, and saying 5 to all her students as she did every morning.

"Hi, Sam, "she said to me as I walked 6　 the classroom.

"Hi," I said and quickly sat in my 　7 , I looked at the clock. The time was near.　 Then Mrs Owens started ," Sam, it's time for you to show yourself. " Show 8 　?Oh, no!

I got up slowly, 9 　the ground as I walked to the front of the classroom. Then, I looked up, and everyone was looking at me. Mrs Owens knew I was 10 , so she came beside me, and put, her hand on my back.

She said to the class," Sam works very hard on his 　11　 ,and I know it is a very interesting report. "Then she turned to me and asked," Sam, 12 did you like best about your report on Hawaii?"

I thought about the fun things I read about surfing before, and I started to talk. I talked and talked 13 the whole class, and I was not nervous at all. It was great fun, it wasn't frightening . The class cheered as I finished and Mrs Owens was 　14　 .

In fact ,I can do 15　 than I think I can —if I try! I am proud of myself.
