Question

When I was eight years old, Mother told me to put my coat on because we were going somewhere ______. Usually, that meant we were going to see someone important. I would at least get a new toy. I asked which one it would be that day, and she told me that I would get something ______ than a toy. She said I would get “access (通道) to a world of toys.”

I had no idea what she meant. Did that mean we were buying a toy ______?

But we did not end up at any toy store. Neither did we finally see anyone we knew. ______, mother pulled her car into a parking lot in front of a building that looked like something out of the past. It didn't have a modern ______ at all.

We took stone steps up to the entrance. Only then I found out what this place was, because there was a sign that ______“Marcy Public Library”. We pushed the door open, and mother led me to the front desk. “I'd like to get my daughter a library card”, she told the man ______ the desk. He asked her to fill out a form. “What kind of books do you like to read?” he asked. I was too shy to ______. I only smiled. “Well, you’ll find it out in time,” he said.

I do not remember ______ I picked out that first day, but I know that in the years that followed I read through the books on history, books of poetry, and books about art. The library opened up a world that I ____ knew that day.

So my mother was right. Getting a library card was like getting access to a world of toys.
