One day a teacher asked her students to list the names of the other students in the class on two sheets of paper，leaving a space bet

ween each name．
Then she told them to

think of the 36 thing they could say about each of their 37 and write it down．
It took the remainder of the class period to finish their 38 ，and as the students left the room，each one handed in the papers．
That Saturday the teacher wrote down the name of each student on a 39 sheet of paper，and 40 what everyone else had said about that 41 ．
On Monday she gave each student his or her list．Before long，the entire class was 42 ．“Really?”
she heard whispers．“I 43  knew I meant anything to anyone!” and “I didn’t know 44 liked me so much!” were most of the 45 .
That group of students   46on. Several years later, one of the students, Mark, was killed in Vietnam and the teacher attended the funeral of that special student.
The church was 47  his friends．After the funeral，Mark’s parents met the teac

her．“We want to 48 you something，” Mark’s father said，taking a wallet out of his pocket．“They 49 this on Mark when he was killed．We thought you might 50 it．
Opening the wallet，he 51 removed two 52 pieces of notebook paper that had been folded and unfolded many times.
The teacher knew without looking 53 the papers were the ones on which she had listed all the good things each of Mark’s classmates had 54 about him.
“Thank you so much for doing that,” Mark’s mother said.” As you can see, Mark 55 it.”
