In the past, I didn’t get on with my parents. I hardly talked to them because they liked to ______ me with my sister. And that made me sad. I sometimes argued with them ______ this. However, I wanted to show them that I could do things ______ my sister. Then I began to spend most of my free time ______ in my bedroom. Luckily, my art teacher, Miss Green, ______ me a lot of help. She taught me some drawing ______ to help improve my paintings. At that time, she was the only person I ______ talk to. One day, I told Miss Green about my problem. She pushed me into taking part in a painting competition. In her opinion, the best way to communicate with my parents was to prove (证明) ______ to them.
After a few weeks waiting, the result finally came out, I was very happy and excited because I got first prize! When I took the prize home, my parents were very ______! They never thought I could do a good job. I could see that they were very happy. And they began to care more about me. Now, ______ between my parents and me are very good.
