Since I was a child, my mouth has caused me trouble. I'm not a bad person. I have a 1 time learning when to keep my mouth closed.
My mom has told me again and again, 'Robert, your constant 2 words are hurting me. If you continued to be this rude, you will get into big trouble.'
It's been a problem at school several times too when teachers have told me 3 I didn't want to hear. I used to feel it was my duty to 4 myself.
One day in English class I was working on my homework until I heard a classmate 5 behind me. It was Nathaniel, who liked doing that as usual.
At first, I said very6, "Nathaniel, would you please be quiet?"
However, Nathaniel continued talking to himself. I quickly 7 "Nathaniel, shut up!"
For the next five minutes, we threw hurtful words back and forth at each other.
I knew these words would make him 8. It would hurt his feelings and shut him up.
What I said filled him with anger. He tried to reach over my seat and catch me as he shouted, "That's it! That's it!"
9 at what he was doing, I sat back in my seat. I had never seen Nathaniel act like this before.
Later on, we were taken to the headmaster's office. There, Mr. Black, our English teacher, told us to 10the matter. It wasn't until then that I finally found that 11 I hurt someone physically(身体上), the wounds eventually heal(愈合). But when I hurt them with my 12, sometimes the pain never goes away.
At the end of the discussion, I said 13to Nathaniel.
When I went back to my room, I lost myself into 14 how often and how much what I said hurt others. It's at that time that I realized I should keep my 15 closed just before I threw hurtful words. I hope my mouth won't cause me any trouble.
