This was the morning, when Jeremy, l4 years old, was to begin his duck shooting. He had 31 the whole idea ever since his father had bought him 32 and had promised him a __33__to this island. But he loved his father and wanted to 34 him.
They came to the beach. To ease the sense of fear, he took a 35 of his father, then he put the camera aside and picked up the gun. His father said happily, “I’ve been 36 a long time for this day. I’ll let you 37 .” He leaned (屈身) forward, eyes narrowed. “There is a small flight(一群) now. Keep your head down; I’ll give you the 38 .”
Jeremy’s heart was beating 39 . “No, don’t let them come, please!” But they came, closer, closer... “Now, take them!” cried his father. Jeremy felt his body 40 . He stood up, leaned into the gun the 41 his father taught him. In the same distance, the ducks saw the gunners and flared (突然飞去) wildly. For a second he hung there balanced between life and death. There was no sound. Jeremy stood 42 , seizing the gun.
“What happened? 43 didn’t you shoot?” his father said in a controlled voice. The boy didn’t answer. His lips were trembling.
“Because they were so 44 ,” he said and burst into tears. He sat down, face buried in his hands and wept. All 45 of pleasing his father was gone. He had his chance and he failed .
For a moment his father was 46 . And then he said, “Let’s try again.” Jeremy didn’t lower his hands. “It’s no use, I can’t.”
“Hurry, you’ll miss them. Here!” Gold metal touched Jeremy. He 47 up, unbelieving . His father was handing the camera to him, and said softly, “Quick!,” Jeremy stood up and pressed his shutter release(快门) button in a flash. “I got them!” His face was bright.
Jeremy saw that there was no disappointment in his father’s eyes, 48 pride and love. “I’ll always love shooting. But that doesn’t mean you 49 . Sometimes it takes as much 50 not to do a thing as to do it.” He paused. “I think you could teach me how to operate that camera .”
