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.

“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 . . .”

“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 (承認(rèn)). “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.
