Although I had left school against the advice of my teachers, I had, without telling anyone, tried to 41 my studies in literature at evening classes. It was a tiresome 42 from one end of the city to another and to 43 among adults was uninteresting. I was the youngest in the 44 , so the friendship I knew at school was 45 . I put up with it for a short period. It was 46 long a walk on cold winter’s nights and it was hard to put my 47 into Shakespeare with wet shoes and trousers. So I continued writing poetry at home.
By chance, I 48 some prizes and awards for literature. A young woman from a 49 company came to the college one day. She told me that I won a national poetry award. I 50 at her in astonishment(吃驚) and disbelief. She wanted to make a short 51 about me, to which I said, “ No, I couldn’t do that.” Not that I had any real 52 . I was just frightened. In the end she 53 me that I should do it the following day.
So I did. They made a short film of me reading one of my 54 and I became 55 interested in literature than ever. I 56 what I should do after this, and decided some weeks later that I could not 57 myself spending the rest of my days dealing with machines. So one evening, I hesitatingly (猶豫地) told my parents that I wanted to _58 to school. They were greatly surprised and a little afraid, but they did not try to persuade me not to. They wanted to know if I was 59 , and if I knew what it meant and 60 I realized that if I gave up my job training, it would be very difficult to get a good job. But nothing could stop me, and they asked about the matter no further.
