“It’s no use, Mum,” said Johnny. “I’m just no good at dancing.”

“You’ve got to keep trying. Tonight will be __16__, dear. Try a turn with that pretty Lisette.”

Johnny __17__. Every Saturday night used to be the best of the week. He and his parents went to the __18__ at the Club, where his hero, Alcide, played the accordion £¨ÊÖ·çÇÙ£© with the band. But lately everything had changed. Now that Johnny was older, he was __19__ to dance with a girl!

__20__ Johnny and his parents arrived at the Club, music had already started. Johnny got up his __21__ to approach Lisette. “May I have this dance?” Johnny asked. “That’s all right,” said Lisette. Johnny struggled to keep up with Lisette’s __22__ steps, but he was always one beat behind her. Then Johnny heard his friend Pierre say, “Look! Johnny has two left feet!” __23__ burst from the crowd. Johnny __24__ and ran outside, determined never to go to another dance.

The next Saturday, Alcide __25__ to Johnny’s house for some potatoes. He happened to hear Johnny playing the accordion. Alcide’s eyes __26__. “Bring that accordion and play some songs tonight,” Alcide said. Then he drove off, leaving Johnny staring openª²mouthed __27__ him.

At the Club, Johnny scanned the crowd for Lisette and __28__ her. The band played for a long time before Alcide said, “Dear friends, I got a __29__ for you tonight. Young Johnny is going to join us!” __30__, Johnny stepped up on the platform, his eyes on the floor. He began to play, and the band __31__ behind him. When the song ended, he heard cheers. Johnny kept playing until the dance was __32__. “You did a fine job tonight. Play with us again next Saturday night,” Alcide said. “Yes, sir!” said Johnny. __33__ he went outside, Johnny saw Lisette and her friends near the door. Lisette stepped __34__, smiling. “You played really good tonight!” she said.

“Thank you,” Johnny blushed £¨Á³ºì£©. As he walked on, Pierre __35__ moved out of the way for him to pass.

Johnny patted his accordion. Come to think of it, in his whole life, he had never once seen Alcide out on the dance floor.
