Our English teacher was like a friend to us, and we all liked her. One day she came 1 the classroom and shouted, “Who did this?” She held up a piece of broken glass and asked, “Who 2 the window?” She seldom became angry. 3 this time she was.
I broke the window. I had done that 4 throwing a baseball. I didn't want to admit (承认) it 5 I didn't have enough money to pay for a big window 6 that .“My father will be 7,”I thought. At first I didn't put up my hand, but later something strong in my heart suddenly made me 8 up. “I did it,” I said. How difficult it was for me to say that!
My teacher 9 a book from one of our book shelves and then began walking towards my desk. I was afraid that she was going to punish(惩罚) me.
“I know you like collecting 10 very much,” she said, looking down at my 11 face. “Here is the book about collecting stamps that you are looking for. Now, the book is 12 and I shall not punish you. Remember, it's because you 13 the truth.”
I couldn't believe it! My teacher wasn't punishing me. I didn't 14 to pay for the broken window. And I got my favourite book!
15 time goes, the book is gone, so is my wonderful teacher. But I will never forget the lesson the teacher gave me that day.
