It was the golden season . I could see the yellow leaves 16 on the cool 17 . In such a season, I liked walking alone in the leaves, listening to the sound of them.

Autumn is a 18 season and life is uninteresting. The free days always get me 19. But one day, the sound of a violin 20 into my ears like a stream flowing in the mountains. I was so surprised that I jumped to see what it was. A young girl, standing in the wind, was 21 in playing her violin.

I had 22 seen her before. The music was so attractive（有吸引力）that I listened quietly. Lost in the music, I didn’t realize that I had been 23 there for so long but my 24 did not seem to disturb(打扰) her.

Leaves were still falling. Every day she played the violin in the corner of the building 25 I went downstairs to watch her performance. I was the only audience. The autumn seemed no longer lonely and life became 26. 27 we didn’t know each other, I thought we were already good friends. I believed she also liked me .

Autumn was nearly over. One day, when I was listening devotedly, the sound suddenly stopped. To my 28,the girl came over to me.

“You must like violin, ” she said.

“Yes . And you play very well. Why did you stop?” I asked.

Suddenly, a 29 expression appeared on her face and I could feel something unusual.

“I came here to see my grandmother, but now I must leave. I once played very badly. It was your listening every day that 30 me. ” she said.

“In fact, it was yourplaying 31 gave me a meaningful autumn. ” I answered. “Let us be friends. ”

The girl smiled and I smiled.

I never heard her play again in my life. I no longer went downstairs to listen like before. Only thick leaves were left behind. But I will always remember the fine figure of the girl. She is like a 32; so short, so bright, like a shooting star giving off so much light that it makes the autumn beautiful.
