When I was about twelve, I suddenly developed a great passion(热情) for writing poetry(诗). I gave up all my other hobbies, such as 1 stamps and spent all my 2 time reading poetry and writing it. This habit of writing poetry on every possible time soon got me3 trouble at school. If a lesson did not interest me, I 4 take out my notebook and 5 poems in class. Of course I 6 this very cautiously(小心地), but it was not 7 I got caught. One day while I was 8 writing a poem during a geography lesson, I looked up 9 the teacher standing over me, fuming with anger (= getting very angry) because I was not 10 attention. He tore the poem up, with a11 not to waste time in his lesson. 12 I felt certain that I had written a good poem, 13 that evening I wrote it out again from 14. Not long after, I read 15 a poetry contest and I decided to send in my poem. Weeks later, long after I had given up 16, I got a latter informing me I had won first 17. Everyone at school was very impressed, 18 the geography teacher, who 19 me more carefully than ever. He 20 that I not write poetry in his class!
