Question

【题目】

Do you have any interests in your childhood? In my seventh grade, I developed a/an _____ in solving a Rubik’s Cube. I started by asking my brother to teach me and he asked me to solve a blue cross on a cube by myself.

I spent around 20 minutes mixing the cube and finally got that little blue cross on the top. ______, I jumped up from the chair and raced into my brother’s bedroom. After handing the cube to him, to my surprise, he mixed the perfect blue cross up. Making my work completely disappear.

“Do it again,” he ______ it back to me.

“No, I won’t.” I was angry stepping out of his room.

A few weeks later, my brother wasn’t at home. “I’m going to _____ how to do this without him!” I promised myself. I spent the rest of my night watching a guy on YouTube teach me to solve the first few steps. I mastered those steps.

The next day, I spent the whole school day secretly______ what I had learned the night before. When I made my way to my music class, I tried to find some spare time taking out the cube again and solving what I knew. Noah, my classmate, and also one of my best friends later, laughed at me.

“Do you know how?” I sneered(讥笑）.

“Actually yeah, let me see it. My fastest solving ______ is 15 seconds,” he noted as he began solving the cube. It took him about 25 seconds to finish it.

“Okay, that was cool.” I started solving the cube again. I didn’t know at that time this boy would be my inspiration for cube solving. He taught me each step, each day, and when I ______, he’d remind(提醒) me how to do it. He was the best friend I’d ever had.

Sadly he’s no longer with us now, but the memories of solving cubes together will be there forever. It was this boy who helped me with cube solving. It takes me around a minute to solve a Rubik’s Cube. I am ______ that I can do something not many people can. Thank you, Noah
