I (54)C now and think she must have been a rather (55)D teacher-to exercise such red-pen restraint (克制)to(56)A the joy,wonder and excitement of expression to flower-however faultily-like that,because to bloom is better than not to.
I used to(57)A beautiful a lot.Never could I quite remember that the e went (58)C the a.Eventually the e and a settled into their right places.I am glad I didn't care too much about them though.Pretty is easier to spell but it doesn't hold as much as you (59)B sometimes.And thanks to Mrs.White,I felt no (60)B with writing what I meant even if I couldn't quite spell it out.Because life isn't Pretty.It's Beautiful.
