Meyer has been crazy about writing since she was young. She got her first lesson in story-telling from     grandfather, who gave her words of love. He set off her imagination and influenced her much. Meyer always had stories running      her head and as soon as she could write, she put them down on paper.
Meyer      remembered the call that changed her life. It was Tuesday, February 18th, when the     rang in the kitchen of her Los Angeles home. On the line was Marty Banderas, a literary agent (代理) to whom she had sent a copy of her novel three weeks earlier. She asked Meyer some    information, like age and health condition. Meyer felt      and asked what that was about. Banderas only replied, "I've just sold your      for one and a half million dollars!"
She sat down in shock. She had written over fourteen novels in twenty years, but each one had been     by publishers(出版商). Many people would have been discouraged (气馁的),     not her. Each time, she just got down to writing another one. Her husband advised her to find something else to do, but she never     . Seeing this book published was the most    thing that has ever happened to her.
Now she is a      of three children, but she has never stopped     , turning out novels between kids and dishes. She is writing another novel now, and she expects another success. Yes, her belief (信仰) has brought her     , and it has changed her life    . Meyer is very confident that she will enjoy a more successful and meaningful life as long as she keeps on with her dream.

Tina was a seventeen-year-old girl who always wore a bright smile. She suffered from a disease and had to use a walker most of the time. People didn’t speak to her very often. Maybe it was because she looked        and people didn’t know how to come near to her. Tina usually broke the ice with people she met with a big “     .”
In one class, I gave the students an assignment (作业) to      a poem. I only made the assignment worth a very small part of their total grade since I knew most of my        would not do it anyway. In the class, one by one each student      to correctly recite (背诵) the poem. Finally, angry and half joking, I said that the next student who       recite the poem had to do three push-up (俯卧撑). To my     , Tina was next. She used her walker to move to the front of the class.      she recited, she made a mistake. Before I could say a word, she       her walker and started doing push-ups. I wanted to say, “Tina, I was just     !”But she     , continued the poem and she finished the rest perfectly.
When she finished, a student asked, “Tina, why did you do that? It’s not an important assignment!”
“Because I want to be like you guys! To be     .” Tina said.
Silence fell on the whole room when another student cried out, “Tina, we’re not normal! We are teenagers! We get in      all the time.”
“I know,” Tina said as a big       spread across her face. The rest of the students laughed, too.
