I strongly believe the right words at just the right time could change someone’s life.

When I was 3 years old, my parents _______ I was totally deaf. But from the third grade, they decided to put me in a “mainstream” school where all of my classmates had _______ hearing. So I was the only deaf child at Blue Creek Elementary School. From the first day there, the other kids often _______ me and called me names mainly because of my hearing aid (助听器) and the way I talked.

I was worried throughout elementary school. Besides the problem of “fitting in” with the other students, I also had _______ with most of my schoolwork.

One morning, Mrs. Jordan, my fifth-grade teacher, asked _______ a question in her math class. She was a large woman with a _______ that went through the walls of her tiny classroom, and it could even spread to the hallway.

I _______ her lips (嘴唇) and raised my hand right away. For once I knew the answer! But I was afraid when she called out my name. Then I answered her question _______. I will never forget what happened next.

Mrs. Jordan pointed directly at me. With shining eyes and a wide smile, she cried, “THAT’S RIGHT, STEPHEN!”

For the first time in my young life, I became a star. I had _______been so excited before!

Right then and there I made a ________that I would make a place for myself in this world. No matter how many difficulties I might meet in life, I knew I could overcome them.
