On my first day of the sixth grade, I noticed one little girl called Amy on the school bus. “Don’t   1  her,” Lauren said, who sat beside me, “or they will make fun of you.”

Amy had many physical differences —lots of   2  for other kids to make fun of her. Her eyes weren’t straight. Her glasses were an inch thick. And she had really ugly teeth.

Every day as we drove to school, kids would shout insults (侮辱) at Amy. “God, what a

 3  face! Stop looking at me!” “Mr. Rolland (the driver)! Amy took off her   4 , and now her eyes are frightening me! Make her put them back on!” I also did that because I didn’t want them to treat me the same way they treated Amy.

But while I was insulting her, my heart   5  for the girl. I could see that the insults were making her look   6 , because she was so ashamed and alone. Then I wanted to stand up for her. I just didn’t know how to stop my schoolmates   7  the night of our class roller skating party.

Our whole class was there, including Amy. Amy didn’t know how to   8 , but I could see how much she wanted to   9  like the rest of us. So I skated over to her and took her by the hand. We began the journey together around the skating rink. She just smiled, and sometimes she would laugh in   10 .

On the school bus the next morning there was much news about Amy and me  11   together, but   12  insulted her or me. And they didn’t do that for the rest of the year.

After graduation, I never heard from Amy again. However, I never   13  her and I’ve always   14  if I changed her life for the better. But I know for sure she changed my life. After becoming her friend, I no longer tried to impress (给…留下印象) people by trying to   15  like them. I became myself.
