Have you ever wanted to talk to the writer after reading a book he or she wrote? At Boone Middle School in Florida, the US, from time to time, students 1 (give) a chance to have a talk with the writer they love.
Last week, all the ninth-graders at school had a video talk with the US writer S. L. Rottman. So far, she 2 (write) many books. 3 the talk, the students had read the writer's book Hero in class.
The book Hero is about 4 teenage boy named Sean, who is sentenced(判决）to work on a horse farm. But its 5 (end) is not clear. With no sequel(续集), students imagined what would happen to Sean and asked Rottman about it. The answer they received was “It is good for you to create your own ending.”
Caitlynne Sheppard was one of the 6 (student) who were happy with the answer. “7 the writer didn't give us a clear ending in the book, it would still leave us trying to imagine what might happen next in our mind,” Sheppard said.
In fact, the video talk is just part of the school's yearly reading project, which started last November. Students not only had to finish 8 (read) the book Hero, but also needed to interview “heroes” around them. For example, Emily Cain interviewed a police officer. “Few people notice that some police officers are 9 (able) to go home at night, or that they have to put their lives at risk 10 (save) other people,” she said.
