76、reading the book. A few days later, David handed in his story. He didnt give it much thought.

He neve

And again he was praised.David became very interested in writing. He often wrote short stories and asked Mrs Brown to read them
78、and correct them for him. Mrs Brown always correct them for him. Mrs Brown always corrected the mistakes he had made and gave him good advice to improve them. One year later, David joined the school newspaper and became an editor of it. He was no longer that boy who lacked selfconfidence. He gained
79、his confidence and was hopeful about his future.He succeeded in entering college and kept writing. Several years after graduating from college, he had his first book published.
