Each of us fails from time to time. If we are wise, we accept these failures as a 36 part of
the learning process. But all too often as parents and teachers we disallow this 37 right to our
children.
When I see a child 38 to this kind of pressure, I think of Donnie.
Donnie was my youngest third grader. His 39 of failure kept him from classroom games
that other children enjoyed. He 40 answered questions—he might be wrong.
I tried my best to build his 41 .But nothing changed until midterm , when Mary Anne , a student teacher , was assigned(安排) to our classroom .
She was young and pretty , and she loved children . My pupils , Donnie included , all 42 her.
One morning , we were working on math problems at the chalkboard . Donnie had 43 the problems with pains-taking tidiness . Pleased with his progress , I 44 the children with Mary Anne and went for art materials . When I returned , Donnie was in 45 . He’d missed the third problem .
My student teacher looked at me in despair . Suddenly her face 46 . From the desk we shared , she got a container filled with pencils .
“Look , Donnie,” she said, kneeling beside him and gently 47 the tear-stained face from his arms . “I’ve got something to 48 you.” She removed the pencils , one at a time , and placed them on his desk .
“See these 49 , Donnie,” she continued . “They belong to Mrs . Lindstrom and me . See how the erasers are 50 ? That’s because we make mistakes too . But we erase the mistakes and try again . That’s what you 51 learn to do , too.”
She kissed him and stood up . “Here”, she said , I’ll leave one of these pencils on 52 desk so you’ll remember that everybody makes mistakes, 53 teachers.” Donnie looked up with love in his eyes and a smile .
The pencil became Donnie’s 54 possession . That, together with Mary Anne’s frequent encouragement, gradually 55 him that it’s all right to make mistakes—as long as you erase them and try again .

It was 4 o’clock in the morning, when I received the phone call.
“This is the emergency room calling and your son was just 1 in with severe burns on his face, neck and arms. We’ve called for a (n) 2 and are going to fly him to the burn unit in Seattle.”
Seattle was 350 miles from his college, so we knew immediately this was 3 .
The doctor described the accident, which caused the burns. At 6 am, our son and his friends decided to barbecue hamburgers. When they 4 the charcoal (木炭), it burst into flames because they had sprayed (喷洒) too much gasoline (petrol). The flames 5 my son’s shirt tail and shot from his waist to his head.
6 , one of the boys was quick-minded, grasped my son, and rolled him on the grass. While it saved his life, it was not in 7 to save him from severe burns and the terrible scars (伤疤). So, he had to return to college with scars.
When I was a child, my mother told my sister, who had a 10-inch, very 8 scar on her arm. “Ann, if you ignore the scar, other people will ignore it. It doesn’t mean they won’t 9 it, but it means it will not matter to them if it doesn’t matter to you.”
I 10 this wisdom (智慧) on to my son. He took my advice to 11 and returned to school with his head held high — glad he was alive.
By the end of the six-month waiting period, he decided that the scars did not matter, so he made the 12 to give up any plastic surgery (外科手术).
We all have “scars” that 13 people to keep away from us. And we spend a lot of time thinking that if only we looked differently, or dressed differently, people would like us better.
But you see, people will only judge you by your looks, or your clothes, if you are judging yourself by these same 14 standards(标准). Put your imperfections out of your 15 and concentrate (集中) on what you value within yourself, and your beauty will shine through.
