I had been a high school teacher for six years and had watched a lot of TV shows about solving cases (破案). I was about to begin my dream    35   , something I had wanted for a long, long time.

When one of the officers followed me out, I couldn’t wait to ask, “Did I pass, sir?” “No,” he said angrily. “What? Why?” I wondered. He then    41    at his shirt and shouted, “See this?   42    shots! Luckily they were paintballs. I didn’t wear any protective gear (裝備) because I was just in the corner to    43    you.”

I said sorry to the officer and told him that I was not terrible at other police trainings and I always scored a high mark when we    44    telling someone that their family member had died. “That’s good,” he said. “Because when you accidentally    45    someone with the way you did, you will be able to tell the family very nicely how they died.” In the end, after nine months of what is usually a six-month course, I realized that people around me would be a lot better off if I    46    to teaching.

I am now the Head of Department for English at a high school. The words of the Rolling Stones spring to mind: You can’t always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you just might find you get what you need.
