“Hey, Jenny ! How’s the model?”
I had just taken a bite of my hot dog 31 I heard a familiar voice yelling at me from across the crowded school yard. I saw a group of popular girls who were all 32 .
“What kind of 33 are you going to do? An ad for a Frankenstein movie?” More laughter. My stomach twisted into a tight knot. How could they humiliate (羞辱) me like this, in front of the entire school? As I walked into the cafeteria, I 34 the dark scars on my right hand.
At 9 months old, I knocked over a tea pot and dumped boiling water all over my hands and stomach. My parents 35 me to the hospital, but I had to have skin graft (移植) operation. I was in so much pain! But what 36 me most were the cruel things people said about how I looked, like that day at lunch.
The girls were being super mean to me because they’d heard I was considering doing some modeling. A close friend had suggested that I shouldn’t let my scars 37 me and that I might make a good model.
But after that 38 at school, I was sure I’d made a huge mistake. Upon arriving home, I covered the mirror with a blanket, fell on my bed and sobbed.
The next day, I39 myself to go to school. At lunch my best friend Jesse tried to encourage me: “You can’t 40 forever, Jenny. So what if you have a few scars? Just go outside and show them that you’re just as good as they are.” Although I knew he was right, I couldn’t imagine standing up for myself like that.
However, that night as I sat on the bed, my friend’s words replayed in my mind. I’m 41 hiding from myself, I thought. How stupid! Slowly, I stood up, walked over to the 42 , and tossed the blanket aside. There, in the mirror I saw a slim, dark-haired, blue-eyed girl, looking just fine, 43 with a few scars.
The next day I wore a comfortable T-shirt to school. What’s more, I had lunch outside the cafeteria,
44 beside those mean girls. They were shocked that I should dare to walk into their territory. I felt different too—free and happy.
Sometimes people still look at me strangely. They whisper and stare, but I don’t let it get to me. I have applied to several modeling companies, and at least one company is considering me for jobs. Maybe I’ll never 45 posing on the runway (T形舞台), but I do know one thing: I’m done.

A．nodding B．cheering C．laughing D．quarreling
