  My sisters and I had had fine dreams of a home in the city, but when the Alcott family found itself in a 1 house at the South End with not a 2 in sight, only a back yard to play in, and 3 money to buy any of the good things before us, we children all rebelled and 4 the country again.

  Anna soon found little pupils and walked 5 away each morning to her job, 6 the corner to wave her hand to me in 7 to my salute with the duster. My father 8 his classes at his room downtown, mother to her all-absorbing poor, the little girls to school, and I, Louisa, was 9 to keep house, 10 like a caged seagull as I washed dishes and cooked in the kitchen.

  My only 11 was the evening reunion, when all 12 with such different reports of the day' s adventures, we could not 13 to find both amusement and instruction.

   14 brought news from the upper world. Mother, 15 in old and poor clothing because she would give away her clothes, brought 16 tales of suffering and sin(犯罪) from the darker side of life. Gentle Anna would modestly talk about her 17 as a teacher, for even at seventeen her sweet nature 18 all who knew her.

   19 reports were usually a mixture of the tragic(悲剧) and the comic, and the children 20 their small joys and sorrows into the family where comfort and sympathy(同情) were always to be found.

The Maum Sin Yong School says that they are the first in Colorado and the one of only two schools in the US to teach martial arts (武术) to students with mental diseases.

    “They do everything that our regular classes do,” says Rob Hansen, Tae Kwon Do instructor. Hansen teaches the kids how to punch (拳打), kick, and block along with the values of the Korean martial arts. He says that they also learn confidence and how to improve their motor skills. “They’ve learned focus, just to be able to pick one item and pay attention to it.”

    “Tae Kwon Do is pretty fun,” says Christina Hinkle. She was born with Down syndrome (唐氏综合症) and says she never wants to miss class. “Well, how come? It’s pretty fun.”

    “Ever since she saw Karate Kid, she’s been running around the house, doing kicks and punches,” says Peggy Hinkle, Christina’s mother. Peggy says that her daughter processes information slowly and taking Tae Kwon Do lessons has helped her in all parts of her life. “It gives her a chance to be a regular kid.”

    Wednesday’s class is not a normal class. Instead, it’s a day that all the students have been waiting for. “Today is actually the first day, and I’m actually going to be able to test these guys,” says Hansen. The students would receive their White Belts. However, in order to receive their belts, the students must show off their skills in front of a group of Black Belts.

    “Nervous? No way. I’m so excited,” says Christina just before she displayed what she has learned over the past few months. She and the other students also answered questions about the history of Tae Kwon Do, as well as its philosophy (哲学).

    “To me, it’s just really important for them to actively see that they are learning something,” says Hansen. “That they actually are able to be rewarded for everything that they’ve done in this class.” All the students passed. They received their White Belts.

    “To see the joy in her face was very rewarding,” says Peggy. She videotaped the whole test and hugged her daughter telling her that she’s proud. “Christina feels like she could do anything,” she says.

Christina says that her next goal is to keep working on her skills so she can move up to a Gold Belt. She says, “Oh, my God, I can’t believe I got the first rank.”
