“Who did this?” asked my teacher. Thirty children tried to think about not only what they had done, but also what our teacher 　　16　 　have found out.

“Who did this?” she asked again. She never became 　　17　 　, but she was this time. She help up a piece of broken glass and asked, “Who broke the window?”

“Oh, no,” I thought. I was the one who broke the window. I did not do it on purpose (故意地). It was caused by a 　　18　 　throw (投，掷)of a baseball. But 　　19　 　did it have to be me?

If I admitted (承认)it, I would 　　20　 　into a lot of trouble. How would I be able to 　21　 　a big window like that? I didn’t want to raise my hand. 　　22　 　, something much stronger than me pulled me up. “I did it.” Then I kept quiet. 　　23　 　was hard enough to say what I felt.

“I know how you like birds,” she said as she stood looking down 　　25　 　my face. “Here is a book about birds. It is yours now. You will not be punished. But remember, it’s only for your honesty.”

I couldn’t believe it! I wasn’t punished and I was getting a book. I had been saving up all my money to buy one.
