Diane Ray was completely self-centered and very spoilt. Her parents gave her   36 she wanted, knowing that she would throw a temper tantrum(耍小孩脾气)if they did not. She would scream and kick and  37 on the floor drumming her heels. Her parents always   38 .

That was why she was alone on the  39 , wearing an expensive swimsuit. It has taken a massive tantrum to  40 her parents to buy it.

“You should mind your own   46 !” Diane replied and walked into the gentle waves.

“If you go out there you’ll be  47 ,” the man called after her. She did not bother to reply.

Diane slipped into the water and dived   48  until white caps began rolling in and it became harder to  49 against the current (水流). Saltwater hit against her face, making it  50 to breathe. Oh, why had she not listened to advice.

Panicking, she began to  51 . Then, just as it seemed as if she would slip beneath the surface, she heard a  52 voice. “Hold on ! I’m coming.” With  53 , she saw the old man rowing an ancient-looking boat towards her. “I hope you’ve learned a lesson. You put us both in  54 , ” he shouted angrily, as he dragged her over the side of the  55 . Gratefully, Diane thanked him and ran towards the beach-house.
