My Life on an Island

We live on the island of Hale. It’s about four kilometers long and two kilometers wide at its broadest point, and it’s joined to the mainland by a causeway 1 (call) Stand—a narrow road built across the mouth of the river 2 separates us from the rest of the country. Most of the time you wouldn’t know we’re on an island because the river mouth between us and the mainland is just a vast stretch of tall grasses and brown mud. But when there’s a high tide and the water rises a half meter or so above the road and nothing can pass 3 the tide goes out again a few hours later, then you know it’s an island.

Dominic’s train was due in at five and he’d asked for a lift back from the station. Now, Dad normally hates being disturbed when he 5 (write) (which is just about all the time), and he also hates having to go anywhere, but despite the typical sighs and moans –why can’t he get a taxi?

University this, university that, writers, books, parties, people, money…I didn’t like the way he spoke and waved his hands around 7 he was some kind of scholar or something. It was embarrassing. It made me feel uncomfortable—that kind of discomfort you feel when someone you like, someone close to you, suddenly starts acting like a complete idiot. And I didn’t like the way he was ignoring me, either. For all the attention I was getting I 8 as well not have been there. I felt a stranger in my own car.

We were about halfway across when I saw a boy. My first thought was how odd it was 9 (see) someone walking on the Stand. You don’t often see people walking around here. As we drew 10 (close), he became clearer. He was actually a young man rather than a boy. It’s hard to explain…
