Before long, through the door came a tall ordinary-looking man 17 about 40. He said shyly, “Good afternoon, gentlemen.” His 18 had a surprising tone (语气) of respect, almost 19 he were addressing （向---讲话）the Supreme Court (最高法院)20 a group of youngsters. He wrote his 21 on the blackboard---Wilmer T. Stone-- ,and 22 sat on the front of his desk.. “Gentlemen,” he began, “We are now this 23 ---your last---to continue your study of 24 . I know we shall 25 learning with and from one another. We are going to learn 26 about journalism and how to write your weekly school paper.

A man who doesn’t read 31 on the earth with a blindfold(眼罩). If I have to put all my 32 into a single word, it would be: ‘browse(广泛浏览)’”. Mr. Stone went on like that, 33 in a friendly and understanding tone. The 34 of the class came much too soon. And we boys had to 35 the classroom with an unexpected feeling of excitement.
