Ray was thought to be a strange boy. One day when he was flying his kite, he said to himself,
"Did anybody ever try to fly a kite at night? I think it must be very fun. But the kite can't be seen
in the dark, what if I tie a
light to it? That would be really good. I {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (try) it tonight."
As soon as it was dark, he {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (take) his kite and lantern, and went to a large field about
a mile from his
home. He tied the
lantern
to the tail of his
kite. The lantern
{#blank#}3{#/blank#} (make) of paper. The kite flew higher and higher. He tied the string( 线) to a tree, then he stood there, staring at his kite. It floated( 飘 ) high up into the air. How wonderful! While Ray {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (enjoy) his special kite, some
people in the village also saw it.
"Look! A light{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (fly) in the sky,"
one person said.
"It can't be a light," said a
man.
"Perhaps it's a big firefly(萤火虫) ," said another.
"Maybe it's a
comet(彗星),"said another man.
"How strange!"
said a boy.
"Let's find out what this strange light {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (be)." the last one said. Then they went
to the field.
While this was taking place, Ray, who had gotten tired of standing, was sitting behind
a tree.
He {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (see) the men as they came, but they didn't see him. When they reached under the light, and saw what it was, they looked at each other and said while laughing, "There is nothing unusual {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (happen)! This is just a trick of some naughty boys', but it{#blank#}9{#/blank#} (fool) us all,
let
us keep the secret."
Then they laughed again and went back to the village.
When the men had gone, Ray thought it was time for him {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (go), so he went home, too. When his mother heard what he had done, she hardly knew whether to laugh or scold(责备), but just told him to go to bed.
