“Wanted: Violin. Can’t pay much. Call…”
That advertisement in the newspaper made me remember my childhood. I, too, had wanted a violin, but we didn’t have the money. Even though times were 16 , I couldn’t wait any longer to ask. “Daddy, may I have a violin of 17 ?” Daddy’s face looked 18 . But a few weeks later, Daddy went home, with a case in his hand, 19 ,“Mary, I found this secondhand violin for seven dollars.”
The day when I carried my violin to school for my first lesson , no one could know how 20 I was. I practiced, joined the school orchestra(管弦乐队), gave performances……Several years seemed to run even quickly and I found myself in the first violin chair. More years 21 , and my violin made every move with me, until one day, I carefully 22 it away.
Now here 23 this want advertisement, I discovered the case deep in my closet（储藏室）. I put it on the table. Then I picked up the 24 , walked to the telephone and called by the 25 .
Later in the day, a man of about 30 knocked at the door. “I’ve been expecting someone would 26 my advertisement. My daughter wants a violin so 27 ,”he said, examining my violin. “How much are you asking?”
I said, “Seven dollars.” “Are you sure?” he asked, 28 he did not believe his ears. “Seven dollars.” I 29 and then added,” I hope your little girl will enjoy it 30 I did.”
I smiled, but I found my tears(眼泪) rolling down my face.
