The teacher sent me home with a note for my mother that said I needed to visit the eye doctor because I failed the vision test. The trip home that day was very slow.
My mother said it would all be just fine. "It wouldn’t hurt a bit," she said. But I wasn’t worried about pain-I was worried about looking _______.
The next day, my mother pulled me to the eye doctor’s office. I _______ a set of frames (镜框) and tried to believe my mother when she said they looked really _______ on me. The doctor said the glasses would be ready soon. But I wasn’t ready at all, and I didn’t think I ever would be.
When the glasses arrived, the eye doctor put them on my face and walked me out onto the sidewalk in front of his office. When I looked _______ from my shoes, I found myself in a whole new world – a world filled with _______ pictures, bright colours, and fine detail everywhere I looked. Suddenly I _______ the beautiful outline of red leaves on trees. I could see the details of people’s faces long before they were standing in front of me. I could see my mother _______ as she watched me see the world in a whole new way.
"Glasses aren’t so bad, are they? " Mom asked.
"Not at all, " I thought to myself. On that first day, they were a _______.
The Monday morning came, and I had to _______ the kids in my classroom. And it happened, just like I feared it would be. A mean kid pointed at me in the middle of the maths class and shouted, "Four ________! " But at the same moment, looking through my new glasses, I could see all the way across the room that the kid who had said it had an awfully big nose.
