完形填空

Mr. Whitson taught sixth-grade science. In his first class , he gave us a 1 about an animal called “cattywampus” , which died out during the Ice .Age. He passed 2 a skull （头盖骨） as he talked. We felt proud for feeling it, took 3 and later had a quiz.

When my paper returned, I was shocked at the big red cross through 4 of my answers. Why? I had written down exactly what he said.

Very simple, Mr. Whitson 5 . He had made up the story about the cattywampus. Needless to say , we were extremely 6 .

We could have 7 him out, he said. 8 , he told us 9 remains of the animal had ever been found at the very moment he was showing us the skull , 10 , a cat's. So , why didn't we 11 his description about its color and other facts, especially the ridiculous （荒唐的） 12 he gave it. The zeros would be recorded in his 13 book. He hoped we would learn something from this 14 . Teachers and textbooks were not always correct and we shouldn't let our 15 sleep , but speak up what we thought right.

We 16 our skepticism （怀疑主义） into other 17 , but it caused problems for the teachers who weren't used to being challenged （挑战） . I've kept in mind what Mr Whitson gave me the 18 to look people in the eye and tell them they are wrong.

Not everyone sees the 19 in this. I once told a teacher about it and she was astonished , saying “He shouldn't have tricked you like that”. I looked at her 20 in the eye and told her she was wrong.
