All I knew was that she was an orphan (孤儿) from Africa.She had just been adopted by a family in town who that the best way for her to learn American ways of life was to be with American kids.I looked down at this girl and promised myself that somehow I would help her.

But how could I help her in with us? There had to be a .

One day, when I went into the classroom, I saw that Suzy had her geography book to a picture of a train, and in her notebook, she had made a(n) copy.

I was surprised and thought that she could do something in the coming show.So, I took her to see the art teacher, Miss Parker, and showed her what Suzy had .“why, it’s wonderful,” said Miss Parker, who then showed us a poster she had painted the talent show.“I need more of these, but I just don’t have enough .Could you help me, Suzy?”

On the day of the talent show, Suzy’s were everywhere ---- all over the hall and all over the school, each one different.

“And finally,” said Mr. Brown, the schoolmaster, at the end of the show, “we have a (n) award.I’m sure you’ve all noticed the wonderful posters.” Everyone nodded.“One of our own students them.”

I could hear everyone whispering.“Who in our school could draw well?”

Mr. Brown waited a while before saying, “ this student worked so hard on the posters, she deserves a ,too.Our mystery(神秘) artist is our new student ---- Suzy Khan!”

Mr. Brown thanked her for all the wonderful posters and gave her a professional artist’s set.“Thank you,” she cried.

I , at that time when I was looking at her excited face, she’d probably never anything in her whole life.

In the mid-1950s, I was a somewhat bored early-adolescent male student who believed that doing any more than necessary was wasted effort.One day, this approach threw me into embarrassment

In Mrs. Totten’s eighth-grade math class at Central Avenue School in Anderson, Indiana, we were learning to add and subtract decimals (小数).

Our teacher typically assigned daily homework, which would be recited in class the following day.On most days, our grades were based on our oral answer to homework questions.

Mrs. Totten usually walked up and down the rows of desks requesting answers from student after student in the order the questions had appeared on our homework sheets.She would start either at the front or the back of the classroom and work toward the other end.

Since I was seated near the middle of about 35 students, it was easy to figure out which questions I might have to answer.This particular time, I had completed my usual two or three problems according to my calculations.

What I failed to expect was that several students were absent, which threw off my estimate.As Mrs. Totten made her way from the beginning of the class,I desperately tried to determine which math problem I would get.I tried to work it out before she got to me, but I had brain freeze and couldn’t function.

When Mrs. Totten reached my desk,she asked what answer I’d got for problem No.14.“I…I didn’t get anything,” I answered,and my face felt warm.

“Correct,” she said.

It turned out that the correct answer was zero.

What did I learn that day? First, always do all your homework.Second, in real life it isn’t always what you say but how you say it that matters.Third,I would never make it as a mathematician.

If I could choose one school day that taught me the most, it would be that one.
