“What’s the matter, Mary?” I stopped _____. “Denis, you are a great dancer! Can you help me?” “What is it?” I_____.“There’ll be a dancing show in my school, but the boys think I’m slow, and none of them wants to be my partner. Could you dance with me for it?” She looked at me, _____ for my reply.“You can be a good dancer!” I ___her. “Let’s show those people that they have been wrong all along.”
In the following months, we practiced every evening, _____ from my parents. I was having a fantastic time and soon Mary improved a lot.
Finally came the big day. I became _____ when I heard my parents would come to watch the show. As the ______ began, I took a deep breath and tried to calm down. We moved perfectly, shining with ______. From the cheering of the crowd, I was sure we had been ______.
