When I was young, I went to a boarding（寄宿）school in Edinburgh. It was far from home because I1on an island in the north of Scotland.
It was a music school, and I studied the violin. At the end of the term, we all packed our bags and our 2 to go home for the holidays. Most kids went by train or bus. Some were 3 by their parents. But I had to go home by ferry—14 hours overnight on the open sea.
One summer, after packing my suitcase and violin, I said4to my friends. I took the train to the ferry terminal（渡船码头）and then got on the ferry. But when the ferry started moving, I realized a(n)5thing! I left my violin on the train!
Oh no! What should I do? What would my dad say? He'd be really6! I got so scared（害怕）that I didn't sleep all night.
The next morning, I7the ferry to meet my dad. After I told him everything, he laughed. I looked at him and couldn't believe it.8was he laughing?
I always had a label（标签）in my violin case with my address and a telephone number. My dad told me, "A cleaner found your violin on the train and took it to the police. They 9 me and put it on a plane. It arrived an hour ago." 10, my violin was safe. I was so happy!
