And we were enjoying every bite of ill-gotten berry 23 all of a sudden the Jordans’ backyard lights were turned on.
“What you boys doing out here?” Mr Jordan shouted. In all 24 ran off my friends, une aten raspberries 25 everywhere.
He made an attempt to grab one or two, but they were too quick. Speed was never my 26 . So I could just stand there and 27 whatever punishment from the Jordans and my parents.

My friends said they could hear every 29 word from the darkness of our backyard, where they had gathered to celebrate their 30 .
They 31 me about it for days afterwards, while all I could do was complain about how 32 it was that I had to pay the full 33 for doing the exact same thing all of them had done without any 34 consequences. After about a week, I complained it to my father.

Born in America, I spoke English, not Chinese, the language of my ancestors. When I was three, my parents flashed cards with Chinese __21__ at my face, but I pushed them __22__. My mom believed I would learn __23__ I was ready. But the __24__ never came.
On a Chinese New Year’s Eve, my uncle spoke to me in Chinese, but all I could do was __25__ at him, confused, scratching my head. “Still can’t speak Chinese?” He __26__ me, “You can’t even buy a fish in Chinatown.”
“Hey, this is America, not China. I’ll get some __27__ with or without Chinese.” I replied and turned to my mom for __28__.
“Remember to ask for fresh fish, Xin Xian Yu,” she said, handing over a $20 bill. I __29__ the words, running down straight into the streets of Chinatown.
I found the fish __30__ surrounded in a sea of customers. “I’d like to buy some fresh fish,” I shouted to the fishman. But he __31__ my English words and turned to serve the next customer. The laugh of the people behind increased __32__ their impatience. With every __33__, the breath of the dragons on my back grew stronger－my blood boiling－ __34__ me to cry out, “Xian Sheng Yu, please.” “Very Xian Sheng,” I repeated. The crowd erupted into laughter. My face turned __35__ and I ran back home __36__, except for the $20 bill I held tightly in my pocket.
Should I laugh or cry? They’re Chinese. I’m Chinese. I should feel right at __37__. Instead, I was the joke, a disgrace to the language.
Sometimes, I laugh at my fish __38__, but, in the end, the joke is on __39__. Every laugh is a culture __40__; every laugh is my heritage fading away.

Each of us has our own __26__of what cheese is, and we want to __27__it because we believe it makes us __28__.
Once there lived four little characters. Two were __29__named Sniff and Scurry and two were little people named Hem and Haw.
Every morning, the mice and the little people __30_their running wear and went to Cheese Station C __31__they found their cheese. It was such a large store(仓库) of cheese that Hem and Haw __32__moved their homes to be closer to it.
One morning, Sniff and Scurry arrived at Cheese Station C and discovered there was __33__cheese. They weren’t surprised. __34__they had noticed the supply 35 cheese had been getting smaller every day; they were prepared for the result. They set out quickly to __36__new cheese.
Later that same day, Hem and Haw arrived. “What? No cheese! Who moved my cheese?” Hem yelled(叫喊). They went home that night __37__and discouraged.
The next day Hem and Haw __38__to Cheese Station C. But the situation hadn’t changed. Haw asked, “Do Sniff and Scurry know something we don’t know?” Hem __39__him and said, “What would they know? They are simple 40 and we are human beings. They cannot be __41__than we are.”
Haw suggested, “Maybe we should 42 talking about the situation and just to look for some new cheese.”
Haw decided to 43 Cheese Station C while Hem was more comfortable staying in the cheese less Station C.
Meanwhile, Sniff and Scurry went farther 44 they found Cheese Station N. They found what they had been looking for. It was the biggest 45 of cheese the mice had ever seen.
