“Scotty!” Mr. Brown, my Year 11 English teacher, called me by my nickname (绰号) across the classroom. His eyes were bright and a secret   36  was half hidden behind the beard.
Once he finished joking over my unbearable   37 , I realized he was going to read my story aloud to the class. I turned red, feeling at once both embarrassed and   38 . I had my very   39  reading audience! Though my classmates were a ‘passive audience’, it didn’t weaken my feeling of being   40 .
After that, I came to   41  those Year 11 English classes. Throughout school I had always studied hard and achieved well in my school subjects. But creative   42  was a passion, and it was not an assignment, but a way of understanding the world and of   43  my thoughts and feelings about events and attitudes.
Mr. Brown was the first to   44  me for my writing so openly. My scores were always 19/20 or 20/20. My stories were often read out to the class. He even   45  one with the respected Head of English teachers, which was the most   46  part that is impressed on my memory. But   47  that, he offered a belief in me that no other teacher had.
My school   48  often stated, ‘Candice is a quiet achiever.’ I thought it was meant as a(n)   49  for being hard-working. I was someone that no one really   50  before, but Mr. Brown managed to   51  all that by bringing me to the attention of the world. Though it was the relatively   52  world of school, it put the seed of belief in myself that some day I could be an   53  person rather than the person who faded into the background.
I   54  touch with my teacher long ago, as we do when we move away from the school system and enter life. I wish I could tell him now how much he   55  me.
