talked to me. She said she and my schoolmate all　　　 　　　 　　　 2_____________

wished me success , but it didn’t matter that I would　　　 　　　　 3___________　

win or not. When I was on the stage the next day, I felt so 　 　　　 4 _____________

nervous as I shook like a leaf. There were so many people　 　　　　 5_____________

present ! Suddenly I caught a sight of my English teacher　 　　　　 6_____________

in the crowd. She was smiling but nodding at me. I remembered　 7_________ 　　

her words and calm down. I did a good job and won the fist 　　　　　　 8 ____________

prize. Now my picture and prize is hanging in the library.　 　　　　　 9_____________

Whenever I see them I will often think of my English.　 　　　　　　　 10 ___________

　 When I was thirteen, my family moved from Boston to Tucson, Arizona.　 1　 　the move, my father 　2　 　us in the living-room on a freezing January night. My sisters and I sat around the fire, not 　3　 　that the universe would suddenly change its course. “In My, we’re 　4　 　to Arizona.”

The words, so small, didn’t seem 　5　 　enough to hold my new life. But the world changed and I awoke on a train moving across the country. I watched the 　6　 　change from green trees to flat dusty plains to high mountains as I saw strange new plants that 　7　 　mysteries(奥秘)yet to come. Finally, we arrived and 　8　 　into our new home.

　　 9　 　my older sisters were sad　 at the loss of friends. I 　10　 　explored(探索) our new surroundings.

One afternoon, I was out exploring 　11　 　and saw a new kind of cactus(仙人掌). I crouched(蹲)down for a closer look. “You’d better not 　12　 　that.”

I turned around to see an old woman.

“Are you new to this neighborhood?” I explained that I was, 　13　 ,new to the entire state.

“My name is Ina Thorne. Have you got used to life in the 　14　 ?It must be quite a 　15　 after living in Boston. ”

How could I explain how I 　16　 　the desert? I couldn’t seem to find the right words.

“It’s vastness,”she offered. “That vastness 　17　 you stand on the mountains overlooking the desert--you can 　18　 　how little you are in comparison with the world. 　19　 , you feel that the possibilities are limitless.”

That was it. That was the feeling I’d had ever since I’d first seen the mountains of my new home. Again, My　 20　 　would change with just a few simple words.

“Would you like to come to my home tomorrow? Someone should teach you which plant you should and shouldn’t touch.”
