It was the night before the composition ...

It was the night before the composition was due. As I looked at the list of topics , "The Art of Eating Spaghetti (意大利面条) " caught my eye. The word "spaghetti" brought back the 36  of an evening at Uncle Alien' s in Belleville   37  all of us were seated around the table and Aunt Pat  38  spaghetti for supper. Spaghetti was an exotic (外来的) treat in   39   days. Never had I eaten spaghetti, and  40  of the grown-ups had enough experience to be  41  it. What laughing  42  we had about the  43  respectable method for moving spaghetti from plate to mouth.   44  , I wanted to write about that, but I wanted to  45  it down simply for my own 46 , not for Mr. Fleagle, my composition teacher.   47 , I would write something else.

When I finished it the night was half gone and there was no  48  left to write a proper com­position for Mr. Fleagle. There was no choice next morning but to  49  my work. Two days pas­sed before Mr. Fleagle returned the   50  papers. He said, "Now, class, I want to read you a composition, “The Art of Eating Spaghetti'. "

My words! He was reading my words out  51  to the whole class.   52 laughed, then the whole class was laughing with open-hearted enjoyment. I did my best not to show  53 , but what I was feeling was pure happiness,   54  my words had the power to make people  55 .
