was a movie house, a space station, or whatever my young mind could imagine. I would 10 away with my friends and play in the basement. This was always 11 because it was so cool and dark, and there
were so many things there to hide among. There was a small 12 at the back of the building. We would
go there to lie in the 13 of the trees and enjoy ourselves.
But what I saw was 14 different. The apartment building was now in 15 ,which looked hardly

Brenda Bongos was a happy, artistic girl. She had one big ambition-to play the drums in a band. But
one big obstacle lay in her way. To be good enough to play in a band, Brenda had to practice a lot, but
she lived next-door to a lot of old people. Many of them are sick. She knew that the sound of beating
drums would really get on their nerves. So, she had tried playing in the strangest places: a basement, a
kitchen, and even in a shower. But there was always someone it would annoy.
One day, while watching a science documentary on TV, she heard that sound cannot travel in space,
because there"s no air. At that moment, Brenda Bongos decided to become a sort of musical astronaut.
With the help of a lot of time, books and work, Brenda built a space bubble. This was a big glass ball
connected to a machine which sucked out all the air inside. All that would be left inside was a drum kit(成套设备) and a chair. Brenda got into the space suit she had made, entered the bubble, turned on the
machine, and played those drums like a wild child.
It wasn"t long before Brenda Bongos came very famous. Many people came to see her play in her
space bubble. Shortly afterwards she came out of the bubble and started giving concerts. Her fame
spread so much that the government suggested that she be part of a unique space journey. Finally,
Brenda was a real musical astronaut, and had gone far beyond her first ambition of playing drums in a
band.
Years later, when asked how she had achieved all this, she thought for a moment, and said: ""If those
old people next - door hadn"t mattered so much to me, I wouldn"t have found a solution, and none of this would have ever happened."" |

| 2. Brenda started to give concerts _______ . |
A. after she practiced in her space bubble

〔1〕"Everything happens for the best," my mother said whenever I faced disappointment.
" If you carry on, one day something good will happen. And you"ll realize that it wouldn"t have happened if not for that previous disappointment."
〔2〕Mother was right, as I discovered after graduating from college in 1932. I had decided to try for a
job in radio, then work my way up to a sports announcer. I went to Chicago and knocked on the door of every station-and got turned down every time.
〔3〕In one studio, a kind lady told me that big stations couldn"t risk hiring an inexperienced person. "Go out in the sticks and find a small station that"ll give you a chance," she said.
〔4〕I returned home to Dixon, Illinois. While there were no radio-announcing jobs in Dixon, my father
said Montgomery Ward had opened a store and wanted a local athlete to manage its sports department.
Since Dixon was where I had played high school football, I applied. The job sounded just right for me.
But ______ _ .
〔5〕My disappointment must have shown. "Everything happens for the best," Mom reminded me. Dad
offered me the car to job hunt. I tried WOC Radio in Davenport, Iowa. The program director, a
wonderful Scotsman named Peter MacArthur, told me they had already hired an announcer.
〔6〕As I left his office, my frustration boiled over. I asked aloud, "How can a fellow get to be a sports
announcer if he can"t get a job in a radio station?"
〔7〕I was waiting for the elevator when I heard MacArthur calling, "What was that you said about
sports? Do you know anything about football?" Then he stood me before a microphone and asked me to
broadcast an imaginary game. I got the job!
〔8〕On my way home, as I have many times since, I thought of my mother"s words: … |

Miss Gorgers taught physics in a New York school. Last month she explained to one of her classes

I passed him the tray with the two 17 chocolates. I replied," Maybe not. 18 it"s too
cold to be working outside today."
