Born to Draw

Jenna looked at the calendar and sighed (叹气). Even though she looked forward to the new term, she would miss spending her summer vacation ______. It was so satisfying to see how her drawings could bring life to her storytelling!

Unfortunately, Jenna's parents didn't understand how much she wanted to be a comic illustrator (插画家). When she talked about her dream job with her parents, she expected them to ______ her. Instead, they explained that drawing comics was a hobby, not a career (职业).

Jenna couldn't stop thinking about that unpleasant conversation, so she turned to her elder brother, James. She wanted her brother to help her make their parents ______ that drawing comics is an art form and that it can even be a great career.

But as she spoke, the look on her brother's face told her that he agreed with their parents. Jenna politely listened to her brother and then she walked back to her room ______.

At school a few weeks later, Miss Bridwell noticed that Jenna wasn't herself. Jenna told Miss Bridwell that she was ______ because her parents didn't back her choice of becoming a comic illustrator.

Pointing to the bookshelf in the front of the room, Miss Bridwell began, "When I was probably about your age, my dad once said writing was not a career. I was just straightforward with my dad. I simply told him the truth. I explained that I enjoyed writing, and that I wanted to get better and to write. I guess my ______ came through, and he believed me."

Miss Bridwell's story ______ Jenna a lot, so she decided to discuss her ideas with her parents again. It didn't happen immediately, but in the end, they came to understand that Jenna's ______ of drawing comics was more important than whether it was the career they wanted for Jenna.
