Lexi Peters, a 14-year-old girl in New York, loves hockey. She’s not only good at playing on her after-school team, but also at playing hockey video games. But when Peters played the popular NHL (National Hockey League) games made by Electronic Arts, something really bothered her. The virtual (虚拟的) character in the game could only be a boy — not a girl.
She didn’t think that was reasonable. There must be many girls playing hockey in the US. So she wrote a letter to Electronic Arts.
“Being represented by a man is unfair to women and girl hockey players,” Peters wrote. “Women’s hockey is a fast-growing sport. I am confident that I’m not the only woman interested in the opportunity to create herself in the game.”
Several weeks later, Peters received an unexpected e-mail from the senior producer for EA Sports’ NHL games, David Littman. “Hi, Lexi,” the e-mail began. “We agree with you!”
Electronic Arts said it would create a female player in the game. “I was thinking you could be the model,” Littman wrote. Peters almost couldn’t believe it. Later, she sent photos of herself taken at all different angles (角度).
And so, when Electronic Arts released the newest version of their game, NHL 12, this fall, Peters was the face of the female player. She can now skate with the NHL’s great players. “It’s strange at first, but you get used to it,” said Peters. “It’s really funny and cool.”
For Peters, there is also an important lesson that she will take with her the rest of her life. “If you have something to say, and you think it’s important, go for it!” she said.

After a long time, the car finally arrived at the hotel. “You should pay me fifteen dollars,” the car driver said to the young man. “What! Fifteen dollars? Do you think I’m a fool?

I grew up in a community called Estepona. I was 16 when one morning, Dad told me I could drive him into a 31 village called Mijas, on condition that I took the car in to be 32 at a nearby garage. I readily accepted. I drove Dad into Mijas, and 33 to pick him up at 4 pm, then dropped off the car at the 34 . With several hours to spare. I went to a theater. 35 , when the last movie finished, it was six. I was two hours late!

I knew Day would be angry if he 36 I’d been watching movies. So I decided not to tell him the truth. When I 37 there I apologized for being late, and told him I’d 38 as quickly as I could, but that the car had needed some major repairs. I’ll never forget the 39 he gave me. “I’m disappointed you 40 you have to lie to me, Jason.” Dad looked at me again. “When you didn’t 41 . I called the garage to ask if there were any 42 , and they told me you hadn’t yet picked up the car. ” I felt 43 as I weakly told him the real reason.

I’m going to walk home now and think seriously about 46 I’ve gone wrong all these years.” “But Day, it’s 18 miles!” My protests and apologies were 47 . Dad walked home that day. I drove behind him, 48 him all the way, but he walked silently.

Seeing Dad in so much 49 and emotional pain was my most painful experience. However, it was 50 the most successful lesson. I have never lied since.
