I was bored. I sat on the sofa eating popcorn and look for something __1__ on TV. I stopped to watch a show: a boy about my age was hypnotizing(催眠) a man and having him do all funny things. __2__, I came up with a plan. "I bet I can do that," I thought.
I jumped up and raced to the dining room to get some string and a spoon. I tired the string to the spoon. OK! I was __3__. I couldn't wait.
I walked into the __4__, where my mom was preparing dinner. I asked Mom if she wanted to be hypnotized. Of course, my mom __5__.

As I started to swing the __6__ slowly in front of my mom's face, I said, "You are getting sleepy, you are getting very sleepy."
After __7__ it a few times, I told her that when I counted to three, she would become Elvis, a pop singer. I counted, and at that very moment, Mom started to __8__. I could hardly believe that I was able to hypnotize Mom on my __9__ try. I was excited. This was so cool! After a while, I decided that it was time to __10__ Mom. I could hardly wait to see Mom's reaction(反应) when I told her __11__ we did it!
"When I clap my hands three times, you'll be back to your usual self." I said confidently. I clapped loudly as I counted the numbers, __12__ Mom continued singing as if nothing had happened. What was wrong? I started to feel __13__. I didn't know what to do. It looked so easy on TV. I started to __14__. Just then, my mom realized I didn't know __15__ had only been pretending(假装) to be hypnotized. She stopped and hugged me.
To this day, Mom and I still laugh about the day I hypnotized her.
