My mother asked me to go to several garage sales  (宅前旧货出售) with her one cool morning.

We finally__36__at a pleasant house in the woods.The elderly__37__told me that he and his wife were retired (退休的) teachers.As we were searching，I heard the gentleman’s wife say her__38__to someone，and I immediately__39__who she was.She looked at me and said，“You’re Lisa Miller.” I looked at her__40__，for it had been nearly thirty__41__since I had been in her class.

My mother immediately said sorry to her for any__42__I might have made.She did that again after learning that I wasn’t the sweet little child.She thought that if this woman__43__me after so many years，I must have done something__44__.My teacher looked at my mother and__45__said，“Oh，no，she was very good.”

My teacher__46__that during the last week of school，I__47__her a plant from my mother’s garden.It was a lamb’s  ear.She took us to her garden where she planted the lamb’s ear.Over the years it__48__.As I looked down her driveway  (车道) with lamb’s ears on both sides，she said，“Every day when I leave my house and drive up the driveway，I think of you.And when I come home they__49__me，I think of you.”  Tears__50__my eyes.There at her home was a piece of my  life that she had raised.

At that moment，she taught me more about__51__than I  could imagine.We give pieces of ourselves every day__52__thought.We seldom imagine the effects (影响) that we have  on others’ lives.That piece may grow and spread，becoming  a(n)__53__part of a life.In the end it isn’t the big things that  matter，__54__the small things that make all the__55__in the  world.

Popular music in America is what every student likes. Students carry small radios with earphones and listen to music before class, after class, and at lunch. Students with cars buy large speakers and play the music loudly as they drive on the street.
Adult drivers listen to music on the car radio as they drive to work. They also listen to the news about sports, the weather, and the life of American people. Most of the radio programmes are music.
Pop or popular music singers make much money. They make a CD or tape which radio stations use in many places. Once the popular singer is heard all over the country, young people buy his or her tape. Some of the money from these tapes goes to the singer. Wherever the singer goes, all the young people want to meet him or her.   Now the singer has become a national star.
