Although we were all brought up in the same way, my brothers and sisters soon【11】their pressed flowers and insects. Unlike them, I had no ear for music and languages. I was not an【12】reader and I could not do mental arithmetic.

I love discussing my【15】topics and enjoy burning the midnight oil while reading about other people’s observations and【16】.
