Question

【題目】 Have you ever blown dandelion seeds to make a wish? Me too. Have you ever eaten a dandelion (蒲公英)? Me neither.

"Time to go, Athena," Mama said from the sidewalk. She_______ the car door open waiting for me. I stepped in the car with my hook. "She knew I didn't eat dandelions. Why did I have to pick them with my family every spring? " I thought.

My father and grandmother smiled from the front seats of the car. I turned and_______ to Brigid, the girl who had just moved in. She stood across the street and watched. I was glad she didn't ask where we were going.

We rode into the _______ , not too far from our house just outside Chicago. I set down my book feeling the warm breeze. I told the wind, "I hope we are not there yet."

I had never seen anyone in the field with us, but I was always_______ that someone would notice us picking dandelions. People in America pulled dandelions from their yards. What would the new neighbors think if they found out our family ate weeds (雜草)?

We drove west until the houses stopped. Then we stopped. We walked through a large field. Hundreds of yellow flowers_______ over the soft earth. I looked for a place to hide.

"What's the matter with you, Athena?" Granny asked. "Nothing," I said. "But why do we eat dandelions? No one else does." "The best_______in the world." Granny answered.

It seemed to take hours to fill the bags. By the time we were ready to leave, we had enough dandelions. On the way home, Mama and Granny talked about hosting a dinner party for the new neighbors.

The night of the party, Brigid arrived with her parents. Mama served octopus with onions, peppers stuffed with lamb and rice, and horta made of dandelions. Our guests ate everything. Brigid tasted the octopus and the lamb. Then she put her fork on the horta. "Wait!" I said. Too late. "You ate the dandelions!" I told her_______ "Not bad," she said and ate another bite. We both laughed.

After dinner, Brigid and I went to the back yard. The stars reminded me of dandelions in the soft field. I closed my eyes and made a _______ to be as open-minded as my family and my new friends.
