Question

My mother was the one who always beat me. I always cried loudly to let neighbors _______ she was killing me. For example, if she acted as though she was about to _______ her hand to me, I would open my _______ and let the world know about it. If anybody was passing by out on the road, _______ would either change her mind or just give me a few light touches.

Thinking about it now, I feel certain that just as my father supported me for being _______ than the other children, my mother gave me more shout for the _______ reason. She was very bright herself, but she liked the ones who were _______. Jimmy, my eldest brother, I knew, was especially her _______. I remember that he would tell me to get out of the house. “Let the sun shine on you so you can get some color.” He went out of his way _______ to let me have a sense of color-advantage.

I learned early that crying out in disagreement could finish things. My older brothers and sister would sometimes come in from school and ________ a biscuit with butter or something. My mother impatiently(不耐烦地), would tell them no. But I would cry out and make a big noise until I got what I wanted. I remember well how my mother asked me why I couldn’t be a nice boy like Wilfred. But I would think to myself that Wilfred, for being so nice and quiet, often stayed hungry. So early in life, I had learned that if you want something, you had better make some noises.
