Born to Draw

Jenna looked at the calendar and signed(叹气). Even though she looked forward to the new term, she would miss spending her summer vacation __13__. It was so satisfying to see how her drawings could bring life to her storytelling!

Unfortunately, Jenna’s parents didn’t understand how much she wanted to be a comic illustrator(插画家). When she talked about her dream job with her parents, she expected them to __14__ her. Instead, they explained that drawing comics was a hobby, not a career(职业).

Jenna couldn’t stop thinking about that unpleasant conversation, so she turned to her elder brother, James. She wanted her brother to help her make their parents __15__ that drawing comics is an art form and that it can even be a great career.

I simply told him the truth. I explained that I enjoyed writing, and that I wanted to get better and to write. I guess my __18__ came through, and he believed me.”

Miss Bridwell’s story __19__ Jenna a lot, so she decided to discuss her ideas with her parents again. It didn’t happen immediately, but in the end, they came to understand that Jenna’s __20__ of drawing comics was more important than whether it was the career they wanted for Jenna.
