Question

C完形填空。(33分)

   My earliest memories of writing are only school homework,nothing of any creativity. All that  1 one day,when Mrs Kumar asked us to write “An autobiography (自传) of a pencil”.

   For me,it was just another piece of homework 2 Mrs Kumar reacted (表现) very differently. Maybe she was just being 3 ,or maybe she really liked the work. Whatever her 4 ,she read it out to the class as an example of “fine writing”.

   A few years later,I went back to my old school. I was walking through the 5 corridors (走廊) when I passed by Mrs Kumar,who was still teaching her class. She looked up as I passed and I 6 ,not wanting to disturb her.

   Seeing me,she went out and invited me into her class. “This girl is one of the best 7 this school has seen ,” she said “She wrote a wonderful autobiography of a pencil. I hope some of you can leam to write like her. ”

   Even after all these years,I can still clearly remember that moment. My face shines with 8 whenever I tell someone this experience. I am sure I was not the only student whose school homework Mrs Kumar 9 . It is likely that she made an effort to make each one of us feel 10 . However,I had never had anybody praise (表扬) my writing before that. It encouraged me to do better to prove to her that “Look!Your understanding in me has worked. I am good,because you believe I am. ”

   Today,I am a successful writer. Thanks to Mrs Kumar,my pencils are not only a tool (工具) to use. They are also a symbol of little beginnings and the power of a teacher’s encouragement.
