Question

The cell door1 and I hear Chief's keys clinking as other doors clang shut further down the row. I step into my little cell and sit down. I glance up at the window, covered in mesh(鐵網(wǎng))，and think to myself, “This isn't a life, it's just a(n)2.”
Being3 makes me feel as though I'm being buried alive. I am a puppet(木偶) with people4 strings so that I eat, sleep and wake when they want me to.
I lie on my bed as night5 and think the same thoughts6. I think about how it all went so wrong, and imagine how I will7 for all the time I've lost.
Every day I live the same routine and nothing changes except the people. Prisoners depart for other prisons, or get8. Others9 from different prisons, or fresh from custody. It's a10 revolving(旋轉(zhuǎn)) door.
When I committed my11， I was a lost young boy, but now I am12. Walking around the yard, I would notice my fellow prisoners reading books and writing letters to friends and family, which upset me as my13 at school was limited.
I longed for the day when I'd be able to sit in the sun, enjoying a cup of coffee and reading a newspaper or book14 my choice. I also longed to write letters to my friends and family, sharing my thoughts and feelings.
I decided not to waste my time inside and,15， make the most of all the resources available to me. I started to learn and was16 to realize my dream.
Now, after five years' persistence, heartache and hard work, I have17 my goal. Having18 a course as a reading adviser, I can now help others to read and write. And I have even started a creative writing workshop at Junee Correctional Centre. Learning to read and write at a highter level has given me the inner strength to present myself in a more19 manner.
And the day I've dreamed about has come true: I now enjoy my cup of coffee with a book in my other hand. Learning to read and write has changed my life and this article is my first piece of “proper” writing, and it won't be my20.
