I know I should have told the headmaster at the time .That was my real 36 .
He had gone out of the study for some 37 , leaving me alone . In his absence I looked to see 38 was on his desk . In the 39 was a small piece of paper on which were written the 40 “English Writing Prize 1949. History Is a Series of Biographies (人物传记).”
A(n) 41 boy would have avoided looking at the title as soon as he saw the 42 . I did not . The subject of the English Writing Prize was kept a 43 until the start of the exam so I could not 44 reading it .
When the headmaster 45 , I was looking out of the window .
I should have told him what had 46 then . It would have been so 47 to say : “I’m sorry but I 48 the title for the English Writing Prize on your desk . You’ll have to 49 it.”
The chance passed and I did not 50 it . I sat the exam the next day and I won. I didn’t 51 to cheat , but it was still cheating anyhow .
That was thirty-eight years 52 when I was fifteen . I have never told anyone about it before , 53 have I tried to explain to myself why not .
The obvious explanation is that I could not admit I had seen me title 54 admitting that I had been looking at the things on his desk . 55 there must have been more behind it . Whatever it was , it has become a good example of how a little mistake can trap (使陷入)you in a more serious moral corner (道德困境). 【題組】47． (A)tiring (B)easy (C)important (D)difficult
