Exciting News

“I have some exciting news, class,” said Mrs. Pike.

It was almost lunchtime, and Jenny Archer was ________ . She drew a piece of apple pie in her notebook.

Sometimes Mrs. Pike’s exciting news wasn’t very exciting. Once, Mrs. Pike had said it would be exciting to watch a filmstrip called Tommy Tooth and the Whole Truth About Teeth. But it wasn’t.

Jenny drew a scoop of ice cream on the apple pie.

“We’re going to have a ________ ,” said Mrs. Pike.

Jenny put down her pencil. She pushed her glasses back on her nose.

“The whole school will take part,” Mrs. Pike went on. “We’re going to ________empty tin cans to sell to a scrap-metal dealer (废品商). We’ll use the money to buy a video camcorder(摄录相机)and a TV monitor for the school.”

“What kind of competition is that?” asked Clifford Stern. “Just collecting cans?”

“The ________ that collects the most cans,” said Mrs. Pike, “will use the camera first. We will make our own class movie. You could all be stars!”

Me, a movie star! Jenny thought. Now, that was ________ . She pictured herself accepting an Academy Award. She would say, “I tall started when I was in a little school . . .”

“The person in the class who brings in the most cans will direct the first movie,” Mrs. Pike finished.

Wow! ________ a movie might be even better than starring in one. The director could make up the whole story. She would choose the actors and tell everybody what to do. Jenny loved to make up stories. And she was good at telling people what to do.

“You can be the star of my movie,” Jenny whispered to her.

“What do you mean your movie?” Beth asked.

“When I ________ the competition,” Jenny said.

“What if I win the competition?” Beth said.

“But I have to win,” answered Jenny. “I’ve always wanted to make a movie.”

“Since when?” Beth asked.

“Well, I just ________ it now,” Jenny admitted (承认). “But don’t you think I’d make a good director?”

“I think I might make a good director,” Beth said. “Why should you be the director?”

Beth was one of Jenny’s two best friends. Jenny didn’t want to fight with her. But she ________ wanted to win this competition. She just had to direct the class movie.

“Let’s not fight,” Jenny said. “We’d both be good directors.”

“You’re right.” Beth grinned (笑嘻嘻). “We won’t fight. Let’s just say, may the best can collector win.”

Jenny shook Beth’s hand. “May the best can collector win,” she repeated.
