"hi! john." mary ran towards me with a rare bright smile on her face, saying, "i'm gonna have a dance performance tonight. i hope you'll come. here is the ticket. don't forget!" she left in a hurry, disappearing in the ¹（人群） of people quickly.

"what?! what performance? dance? is that ²?" i asked myself. mary was not such kind of girl. she was a quite ordinary one. i had never seen her making up or wearing attractive clothes, moreover, she always wore her big black-frame glasses, for she did not know how to dress up indeed. what a terrible thing, especially for a plain girl!

"i should go to, i must go to. that's a miracle!" i thought.

i arrived at the hall with the ticket, and found my seat. her performance was the seventh one. i knew i would suffer from a hard time before her turn, for i had no sense of art, but her performance was worth of watching, no matter how long i would wait for.

time went slowly, i struggled with myself not to fall asleep.

"let's welcome the next exciting dance — latin!" applause filled the hall at once.

i opened my eyes as large as possible, fearing to lose anything. wearing a golden and shining skirt, mary appeared on the glorious stage. her dress went well with the brilliant lights. such scene seemed to be a mermaiden showing up under the glittering sunshine, meanwhile, i could feel all the audience in the hall focused their eyes on her and it was also hard for me to remove my sights from her. she was so beautiful: her ³ was slim; her long golden hair lay back in curls over her delicate ears. dancing with a charming smile, she was ⁴ absorbed in the latin music. at this moment, she looked like a pretty butterfly flying on the splendid stage… i could hardly believe my eyes.

after all the performance ended, i waited for her at the gate.

"hi!" she stood in front of me with a bag and her crystal high-heeled shoes in her hands, and dressed as she used to be, but the making-up still could be seen.

"how do you feel?" there was not a little bit tired expression appeared on her face.

"fantastic!" i answered.

"ha, ha. i knew it would be." she could not ⁵ her excitement, laughing like a child.

"may i lend a hand?"

"thank you!" she handed her crystal shoes to me which were shining in the wonderful ⁶ night（繁星之夜） ; at the mean time, i realized that every girl has a pair of special shoes which are like the crystal shoes of cinderella（灰姑娘） .
