Mrs. Thompson was 39 that he didn’t play well with other children, that his clothes were 40 and that he always needed a bath. 41 , when she received his records, she got a real 42 .
Teddy’s first grade teacher wrote, “Teddy is a smart child with ready laugh. He does his work neatly and has good manners.”
His second grade 43 wrote, “Teddy is an excellent student, well liked by his classmates, but he is troubled because his mother has a deadly illness and life at home 44 be a struggle.”
His third teacher wrote, “ His mother’s death has been 45 to him.”
By now, Mrs. Thompson realized the problem and she was 46 herself. She felt even worse when students 47 her beautiful C hristmas presents, except for Teddy’s ---- a 48 that was one quarter full perfume（香水）.
After the children left she 49 for at least an hour.

A snake handler who cheated death after being badly bitten by a snake is now teaching Australians how to 36 in the case．Neville-Burns has been bitten twelve times during his long work with snakes, and uses all his 37 to give lectures to people at risk of meeting a snake 38 .

I used to watch her from my kitchen window．She seemed so small as she struggled her way through the crowd of boys on the playground．The school was across the street from our home and I would often watch the kids as they played during break．I remember the first day I saw her playing basketball．I watched in wonder as she ra n circles a- round the other kids．She managed to shoot jump shots just over their heads and into the net．The boys always tried to stop her but no one could．I began to notice her at other times, basketball in hand, playing alone．
One day I asked her why she practiced so much．Without a moment of hesitation she said, "I want to go to college．The only way I can go is to get a scholarship to save money for our family．I am going to play college basketball．I want to be the best．My Daddy told me if the dream is big enough, the facts don"t count．" Well, I had to give it to her ?she was determined．I watched her through those junior high years and into high school．Every week, she led her school team to victory．
One day in her senior year, I saw her sitting in the grass, head in her arms．I walked up and sat down in the cool grass beside her．Quietly I asked what was wrong． "Oh, nothing," came a soft reply, "I am just too short．" The coach told her that she would probably never get to play for a top ranked team ?much less offered a scholarship —so she should stop dreaming about college．She was heartbroken and I felt my own throat tighten as I sensed her disappointment．I asked her if she had talked to Father about it yet．She told me that her father said those coaches were wrong．They just did not understand the power of a dream．He told her that if she truly wanted a scholar-ship, nothing could stop her except one thing —her own attitude．
The next year, as she and her team went to the Northern California Championship game, she was offered a scholarship and joined the college team．She was going to get the college education that she had dreamed of．

Brownie and Spotty were neighbor dogs who met every day to play together. Like pairs of dogs you 36 find in most any neighborhood, these two loved each other and played 37 so often that they had worn a path through the grass of the field between their own houses.
One evening, Brownie’s family 38 that Brownie hadn’t returned home. They went looking for him with no 39 .Brownie didn’t appear the next day, and, despite their 40 to find him, by the next week he was still missing.
Curiously, Spotty 41 at Brownie’s house alone, barking. Busy with their own lives, they just ignored(不理睬)the 42 little neighbor dog.
Finally, one morning Spotty 43 to take “no” for an answer. Spotty followed Ted about, barking strongly, then running towards a nearby wood, as if to say “ 44 me! It’s urgent!”
Finally, Ted followed the anxious Spotty. The little dog led the man to a 45 spot a half mile from the house. There Ted found his beloved Brownie 46 , one of his hind legs stuck in a steel leg hold trap. Horrified, Ted now wished he’d taken Spotty’s earlier requirement 47 .Then Ted noticed something quite remarkable.
Spotty had done more than simply 48 Brownie’s human owner to his trapped frie nd. In a circle around the 49 dog. Ted found some dog food---which was later 50 as the remains of every meal Spotty had been fed that 516 !
Spotty had been visiting Brownie 52 , in a single-minded quest to keep his friend alive by offering  his own comfort. Spotty had obviously stayed with Brownie to protect him from being hurt, snuggling(依偎) with him at night to keep him 53 and touching him gently with its nose to keep his spirits up.
Brownie’s leg was treated by a veterinarian and he re-covered. For many years afterward, the two 54 watched the faithful friends frolicking(嬉戏) 55 chasing each other down that well-worn path between their houses.

Not too long after I had begun to drive as a teenager, someone pulled out of a parking lot onto the road in front of m e. I reacted 36 and pulled up very close behind her--- just to show my irritation(怒气) and let her know she didn"t "just 37 with that!" We"ve all been there with 38 incidents and reactions. My mother was with me, and told me to turn into the 39 parking lot. Safely there, she asked me why I 40 that lady had pulled out in front of me purposely. 41 rude, power play--- I guessed. Mom said that maybe she had just had some bad 42 , maybe she was late picking up her child and was distracted(分心). Think of all the 43 of why someone does something like that. It"s usually not on purpose--- but what I do as a reaction is on purpose. She always said that I 44 to think about the other side before I 45 . Usually the reaction causes more of a 46 .
I am in my fifties now, and to this day, that has always 47 my head whenever those  48 happen. I"ve 49 my children the same thing. We often see and hear about "road rage." No matter to what 50 that "rage" is taken, my children will say something like, "They need Grandma"s words!" As adults, I don"t see them react as most of us do 51 their first reaction is always anger and irritation --- they 52 it and 53 what the other person"s pro blem might be. Even if the other driver really might be 54 or doing a "power play," no more 55 reactions will occur because of their irritation.
