Sam was worried. The following morning, he would have art class. It was his favourite class, but there was a 1 . Sam saw the world differently from everybody else.

“Good morning, class,” said Mr White. “Today, we're going to paint...”
Sam 3 , wondering what the next word would be. Please, he thought, not houses. Not buildings ...
“We're going to paint 4,” said Mr White, with a smile.
"Yes! Great!" said Sam 5
“We can't paint that!” shouted Mike from the other side of the classroom.
“Sure, you can,” replied Mr White __6 . “Think about it, Mike. What makes you happy?”
“Umm ... beaches, sunshine, and ... ice-cream!” said Mike.
“Well, there you go. That’s how you paint it. Start working!” said Mr White.
Sam was already 7_. He splashed (泼洒)large amounts of paint all over the 8 . It was really beautiful! There were shapes that we didn't have in the real world and the colours were so shining. The whole class __9_ and Sam looked proud.
From that day on, Sam was never 10 about art class. He knew that he could paint happiness, no matter what he painted.
