The most important lesson I learned in high school had nothing to do with maths or American history. It came at graduation, several minutes before I left Miramonte High School.

I was rather shy back then, content to  ________ around with my few friends and to concentrate on my  ________I was doing so well that by the end of senior year I had perfect scores and enough   ________to go to college.

But my good record soon became a  ________to my well-being. In early June of senior year, the headmaster called me into his office. He asked me to give a leave-taking speech at graduation. I looked at him, my heart  ________ fast. This was the________  for my hard work? I said something, but not very clearly, and hurried away from the office.

I was ________ about the decision, finally agreeing to compromise. I wasn’t the only speaker — I would   ________   the honor with five other students. Still, it was doubtful whether the task was ________me. How in the world would I give a speech to hundreds of people?

Graduation day soon arrived and, as  ________, I was nervous. I’d been practicing my speech for days, and I had it________. But I had never been so  ________ in my life. The first half hour of the ceremony passed, and then my  ________ came. My name was announced. I managed to reach the platform without falling down. But within minutes, I finished my speech,  ________  back to my seat and feeling unsatisfied with my performance.

Now I still have the  ________of that speech. My voice trembled a little, but  56 it was clear and strong. I’m proud of that tape. I achieved something I’d never________ — I spoke in front of hundreds of people.  ________ I didn’t realize it at the time, the successful completion of that speech gave me the  ________to participate in class at college, to give oral reports, and to eventually break free of my  ________ .

I never would have chosen to give a speech at graduation. But I am glad I did. I know it may well turn out to be one of my shining moments.
