Monday morning is an important time at our school. All of the students go to the playground. We listen to music, and we 1 the national flag（国旗）go up. Usually, one student gives a talk on Monday mornings. One Monday last year, a boy gave the talk. He was 2 and excited！When I saw him, I wanted to have a try, too. Can I really do it?
Last week our teacher said our class should give the talk. My teacher3 me, "I know you want to have a try. Next Monday, you can give the talk. Go and write something down. Get ready for it, I'm sure you'll do well. "
"Thank you"I answered. It was such a great4 for me!When I got home, I was excited. I wrote two pages for the talk. I read them again and again. 5 I read, I asked my parents to listen. I wanted to make my teacher happy.
Monday morning came. I began to feel6 . When did I last give a talk to so many people?Never!This was my first time. Could I really do it?Maybe I couldn't finish the talk.
When I got to school, we all went out to the playground. I7 in front of everyone. I opened my mouth, but I couldn't say anything.
"Take it easy, " I said to8 . "Don't be nervous. You can do it. "
Just then, I looked down at everyone. I saw about 1, 000 eyes. They were all looking at me!I couldn't even stand up.
I looked at their eyes more 9 . Their eyes were saying. "You can do it!Don't be afraid, just talk!"
I took a big breath（呼吸）. Then I began to talk. It wasn't hard, it was easy. I don't know 10 I finished my talk. But I did it. I felt so good that day. I showed myself to everyone what I can do.
