10、e, and all through the long summer vacations I sat on the edge of the street and watched with envy the other boys on the block play baseball. I was never asked to take part even when one team had a member missing, because they took it for granted that I would be no good at it. They were right, of co
11、urse.I would never forget the wonderful evening when something changed. The baseball ended about eight or eight thirty when it grew dark. Then it was the custom of the boys to retire to a little stoop(门廊) that stuck out from the candy store on the corner. There the boys would sit, mostly talking abo
12、ut the games played during the day. Then long silences would fall and the boys would wander off one by one. It was just after one of those long silences that my life as an outsider changed. I can no longer remember which boy it was that summer evening who broke the silence with a question, but whoev
13、er he was, I nod to him gratefully now. “Whats in those books youre always reading?” he asked casually. “Stories,” I answered. “What kind? ”asked somebody else without much interest.

14、entively. I must have told it well.The next night and many nights thereafter, a kind of unspoken ritual(仪式) took place. As it grew dark, I would take my place in the centre of the stoop and begin the evenings tale. Some nights, in order to taste my victory more completely, I cheated. I would stop at
15、 the most exciting part of a story and without warning tell them that that was as far as I had gone in the book and it would have to be continued the following evening. It was not true, of course, but I had to make certain of my newfound power and position. Other words of mine have been listened to

19、 Vacations B. Memory of Childhood Friends C. Books Appeal to me D. My First Audience CFor most city people, the elevator is an unremarkable machine that inspires none of the enthusiasm or interest that Americans afford trains, jets, and even bicycles.
