She said, “Suzie’s in the corner because she’s not been very 3 . She didn’t listen to a 4 I said or do the things she should.” In the corner I saw her baby doll all dressed in lace and pink. It was 5 she’d been put there to sit alone and 6 .
My daughter 7 her “conversation”, as I sat down on the floor. She said, “I’m all fed up. I just don’t know what to do with her any more. She cries whenever I have to work and wants to play games, too. She never 8 me do the things that I just have to do.
She tries to help me with the dishes, but her arms just cannot 9 . And she doesn’t know 10 to fold towels. I don’t have the 11 to teach. I have a lot of work to do and a big house to keep clean. I don’t have the time to sit and play— 12 what I mean?”
And that day I thought a lot about making some 13 in my life, as I listened to her 14 words that cut me like a knife. I hadn’t been paying enough attention to what I hold most 15 . I’d been caught up in responsibilities that increased throughout the year.
But now my 16 has changed, because, in my heart, I realize that I’ve seen the world in a different 17 through my little darling’s eyes. So, let the cobwebs(蜘蛛网) 18 the corners and the dust bunny rabbit rule the floor. I’m not going to worry about keeping up with them 19 .
I’m going to fill the house with 20 of a child and her mother, for we are granted only one childhood, and we will never get another.

A few weeks ago, our dog, which we had kept for more than ten years, had to be put down. First, a tumor on her stomach got worse, and she was very 36 . Then, the pain in her back got so bad that sometimes she 37 lie down in the middle of a walk and couldn't take another 38 .
When I first found out, l was very sad and cried a lot. She was more like a sister to me than a 39 .But I was also angry at my stepfather,Steve,who told us the 40 a week after it happened. He 41 because he didn' t want to worry us, and he didn't want me to get depressed(抑郁的) and fail my exams. I just thought she was 42 at the animals' hospital.
I think you know all the 43 that went through my head: She was my dog!Why didn't he tell us earlier? I didn't even get to say goodbye.
People in my family have a 44 of keeping things from me to protect me, such as only telling me that my aunt had cancer 45 she had already improved health. All I could think was: Not again !
I 46 to my mum, and she said, “I know. I'm 47 , too.” I opened my mouth to shout. And then she added, “I'm so angry with Steve that he had to 48 through all this on his own.”Hearing my mum's words, I shut up my mouth. I had been so 49 on myself.

He'd had her for longer than he'd had us—and he had to make the decision to 51 her life, and then kept in silence for an entire 52 . All my anger melted away, and all I felt was 53 .
It makes me realize that we focus so much on ourselves that we 54 the pain of others. At that moment, my mum's words were an incredible 55 that I'll never forget.

This little story I’m about to tell you happened when I was 11 years old, and I’ll never forget it.
It was at my friend Jenny’s house after 36 one day, and we were doing our homework. While I was there, a friend of Jenny’s mom came over to 37. I didn’t know her name or 38 what her face looked like. I just 39 her hands, her voice and the lesson I 40 from her.
I can’t forget that she 41 her hands to introduce herself. It was so 42, I thought, rich fine skin; then I heard her saying, “Oh no, that is not 43 you shake hands. Let me teach you.” She didn’t do that at all in a condescending (屈尊的) manner. 44 that, I just remember her voice explaining the 45 of a good handshake of conveying (传达) a 46 sense of self-belief, of looking the other person in the eyes, and of making a warm 47. Hearing her friendly words, I first understand what being 48 meant.
I admired her for 49 time to teach me about one of the important things in life. I was grateful for her not talking down to me 50 I was 11 and didn’t know much. I also felt somewhat admired by the way she 51 me. It felt good to be talked to as a(n) 52, rather than as an 11-year-old child. I also 53 her telling me that if someone isn’t aware of something you should show him or her the right direction; don’t be afraid to 54 your knowledge.
I think of her every time I meet someone 55, and I’m so thankful for her little lesson.

Isn't it amazing how one person, sharing one idea, at the right time and place can change the course of your life's history?When I was 14, I was a high school_1_with learning disabilities. One day I met an old man, a bum (流浪汉).

The bum first brought a couple of old 4 and then started with a few 5 that were very special and that changed my life.He said, "There are two things I want to 6 you.Number one is to never 7 a book by its cover, for a cover can fool you." He followed with, "I'll 8 you think I'm a bum, don't you?" "Yes, I 9 so, sir." Well, young man, I've got a little 10 for you.I am one of the 11 men in the world.I have probably everything any man could ever want.But a year ago, my wife 12 , and since then I have been deeply 13 on life.I realized there were certain things I had not yet experienced in life, one of 14 was what it would be like to live like a bum on the streets.For the past year, I have been going from city to city doing just that.So, you see, don't ever judge a book by its cover, for a cover can fool you. "Number two is to learn how to 15 .For there is only one thing that people can't 16 away from you, your wisdom."He 17 my right hand and put it upon the books he'd 18 from the shelves, the writings of Plato and Aristotle's everlasting 19 from ancient times. His 20 request was for me to never forget what he taught me. I haven't. | ||||
