I was only eight years old when the Second World War ended, but I can still remember something about the 36 celebrations in the small town where I lived on the day when the war in Europe ended. We had not 37 much from the war where, though, like most children of my age, I often saw 38 houses in the streets and the very big 39 lorries(卡车) passing through. But both at home and at school I had become 40 to the phrases “before the war” and “when the war is over”. “Before the war”, obviously, 41 had been better, though I was too young to understand why, 42 there had been no bombs then, and people had eaten things like ice cream and bananas, which I had 43 heard of. When the war was over we would go back to London, but this meant very 44 to me. I did not remember what London was like.
What I remember now 45 V-Day(victory day) was the afternoon and the evening. Some boys and girls were collecting 46 and building an enormous bonfire(篝火). We stood and watched them for a time, and then I went home and 47 myself in with my key and waited for my parents to come back from work.
It was May and still broad 48 when my mother arrived, and my father came in about an hour later. After dinner I said I wanted to 49 the bonfire, so when it got dark my father took me to the end of the street. The bonfire was very 50 , and somehow people had collected some old clothes to 51 “Hitler” with the moustache(胡子) they had put on top of it. Just as we arrived, they set light to it. The flames 52 soon. Everyone was cheering and shouting.
I stood beside my father until the 53 started to go down, not knowing what to say. He said nothing, either. He had 54 in the First World War and remembered everything he had experienced. At last he said, “Well, that’s it, son. Let’s hope that this time it really will be the 55 one.”
