Question

I used to be ashamed of my grandma. I know that's a1thing to say, but it was true until today, so I have to2it.
The 3started when my friend Katy found Grandma's false teeth floating in a glass on the bathroom sink. I was so used to seeing them that I4 took notice of them. But Katy shouted, laughing and5 to talk to them. I had to get down on my knees and6her to shut up so my grandma wouldn't7 and get hurt.
After that happened, I8 there were a million things about Grandma that were embarrassing(令人窘迫).
Once she took Jill and me out to Burger King.9 ordering our hamburgers well-done, she told the person behind the counter, "They'11 have two Whoppers (巨无霸) well-to-do. " Jill burst out laughing, but I almost10.
After a while, I started wishing I could11 Grandma in a closet. I even complained to my parents. Both my parents said I had to be careful not to make Grandma feel12 in our home.
Then last Wednesday, something happened that13 everything completely. My teacher told us to help find interesting old people and14 them about their15 for a big Oral History project. I was trying to think of someone when Angie pushed me gently.
"Volunteer your grandmother," she whispered. "She's16 and rich in experience."
That was the last thing I ever thought Angie would say about my grandma.
This is how I ended up on17 today interviewing my own grandmother before the whole school assembly (集合). All my friends and teachers were listening to her18 she was a great heroine. I was19of my grandma and hoped she would20 know that I had been ashamed of her.
