I had to walk past Coleen’s house every day to get to school．At that 1 Colleen and I didn’t really know each other and I just used to 2 around with other lads up the road．Still, I’d see her when I was walking home and I fancied her then．
But Coleen wasn’t really interested in boys．We had little in 3 because she was a good student 4 all I was interested in was my football．
I 5 to pull little tricks and try to get close to her, but I’m quite 6 and with Coleen it was worse because I fancied her．I 7 wanted to kiss her but I didn’t know how．
I remembered once I 8 to have a contact lenses(隐形眼镜) that I couldn’t get in my eyes and asked her to have a 9 and see if my eyes were OK．She looked and then walked away．
I could never get the 10 to ask her out properly or kiss her．I invited her out on 11 of dates, but she thought I wasn’t 12 ．
But my day came when the 13 came off her bike．I saw her and stopped to help on my way home．I fixed the bike then asked her if she would come on a date with me．This time she said yes!I was in 14 nine．
We went for a walk．We knew we were going for a kiss．I took her to the back of the church, it was like the local 15 lane．It was the first kiss that 16 to me, she was special．I knew then that we were 17 for each other．
I 18 her home and I phoned her as soon as I got in and asked her for a proper 19 ．Again, she said yes．
As weeks 20 to months, I realized how much in love I was by the way my life had changed from simply rushing out on to the street after school to play．
It was three days before the opening of the Pirates(海盗)of the Caribbean ride at Disneyland．Walt Disney was touring the 1 and suddenly felt strangely 2 ．In his heart he felt th at something was 3 , although he wasn't quite sure 4 it was．He 5 as many employees as h e could find－including the repairing workers and food service people－and 6 them through a kind of inspection(检查)trip．
“Does it look right?”he asked．Yes, the clothes and scenes were 7 ; the buildings had been copied from the New Orleans French Quarter in Caribbean．
“Does it sound right?” Disney 8 the latest sound equipment installed(安装)in order to exactly 9 the sounds of music, voices, boats and even animals that you'd 10 to the Caribbean．Yes, it sounded right．
“Does it feel right?”He had controlled the temperature to perfectly 11 that of a New Orleans night．Yes, it felt right．
12 , something was still missing．“What is it?” Disney asked．
Finally, one of the young men who had been sweeping the floors said, “ 13 , Mr, Disney, I 14 up in the South, and what 15 me is that on summer night like this, there 16 be lightning bugs(虫子)．”Disney's face 17 up．That, of course, was 18 !The young man was given a generous prize, and Disney actually had live lightning bugs 19 in to make his ride more real 20 he could figure out a way to imitate(模仿)them mechanically．

However it wasn't 2 two days ago that Dad finally allowed me to drive on the motorway．Our 3 was Orewa, a seaside town about 60 kilometers away from my home in Auckland．That morning I 4 sure I had enough to drink and went to the toilet about three times 5 we left．I thought I was totally 6 for the journey, but nothing could have prepared me for my family's 7 ．“Relax!Don't hold the steering wheel(方向盘)so 8 ．The car is going zigzag(弯弯曲曲的),”called a nervous voice from the 9 ．“Speed up．70km/h isn't fast enough．You are holding up the traffic,”another voice ordered from the seat next to mine．
How 10 !My parents were really starting to get on my nerves．To satisfy them I sped up and within a second, an angry voice began to yell again．“Stop! 11 !Are you crazy?”
Everything did not go fine until I pulled off the motorway and drove into the city, 12 the speed limit was only 50km/h．My family seemed relieved(放心的)and 13 telling me what to do．They all looked out of the windows and enjoyed the scenery． 14 , that silence didn't last very long．My mum suddenly cried out,“Look at those 15 above us．Aren't they lovely?”
How did she expect me to look up in the 16 ?As the driver I had to 17 ．Who knows what would have happened if I had taken my eyes off the 18 ?Four hours later we drove home．This time the journey was much 19 than before as everyone else 20 fast asleep．So, I just took my time and enjoyed the drive．
