Her mother tried to 17 Susie’s tantrum（发脾气）. Finally her mother 18 . I was surprised that we could have almost anything we wanted by throwing a tantrum.
That day my mother 19 me up early because we were going to a department to do the shopping for 20 Day. I was excited to see a toy telephone. Looking lovingly 21 at my mother, I asked, “Can I have that telephone?”
She replied, “Baby, not now, but 22 you are a good girl, maybe Santa Clause will 23 you.” “But Mama, I want that telephone right now,” I said. My mother’s eyes 24 and her hand tightened（紧握）on mine. “Becky, you 25 have that telephone today, and if you 26 you can have a spanking（打屁股）.”
We were standing in the long 27 ,and I knew from my experience that it was now or 28 . So I lay down on the ground and began screaming, “I want that telephone.” Tired Christmas 29 looked as my mother calmly said, “Becky, you’d better get up by the 30 of three or else.” “One…Two…Three.” But I was 31 in full tantrum. Then she lay down beside me on the 32
and began screaming, “I want a new car, I want some jewellery, I want…”
33 , I stood up. “Mama, stop, Mama, get up,” I tearfully 34 .
She stood up. The others waiting began to laugh. The next thirty minutes was plete 35 for me. Then one parent said to me with a smile, “I bet you’ll never try that again”.
