I’d been 16 for six days and was already prepared to deal with failure. I remember when my mum 36 me up that morning, her voice wasn’t as 37 as it usually was.
I stayed in bed for a few minutes. I was 38 to leave its warmth and comfort, and didn’t want to face the problem that I’d let myself 39 for the past six months. Finally, I dragged myself out of 40 .
I finished getting ready and tried to 41 . It didn’t work, so I decided that my 42 should go with me. We had a little time, so I thought we could practice parking. I 43 , with the wheel hitting the fence. After that, the little bit of confidence I’d had was 44 . I tried two more times, but didn’t 45 much. Then we headed to the test site.
I went into a room for some paperwork. And I waited for 20 minutes—just 46 time to make myself believe that I was going to fail. Then, finally, it was my 47 . I just wanted to get it over and make sure that I had to come back next Thursday.
I stepped outside and the sky was the light blue I love. It offered me some 48 and I realized something: something between when I pulled myself off the seat and when I got outside. I had become 49 and confident.
The first thing I had to do was parking, which I did quite 50 . The confidence that came with it hit me like a wave. The rest of the test went well too and I 51 it all. As I drove back, the instructor told me I would not be coming back for a second 52 next Thursday.
Back in the building I didn’t have to say a word. My mum knew just by looking at me. Her 53 made her face softer. And I’m sure it was at least as big as the smile on my face. Her eyes, 54 , looked kind of teary. I knew she was 55 for me.

Last year was the first year when I taught the fifth grade. Recently, I’ve been 1 by a “graduated ”student for the first time. I was really surprised when he walked into my home.
He hasn’t physically changed much since 2 my class last year and if I had had to guess who would come to visit me first. I wouldn’t have thought of him. Carlos was a student who had a hard time sitting 3 in the beginning of last year. He would often 4 to go to the bathroom, and he’d talk or look like he was falling asleep because of little sleep. He often needed 5 in doing anything that other students could do well on their own.
I found out that the reason for his behavior in my classroom was that he had been 6 nightmares(噩梦)about his border-crossing experience. He was 7 that the immigration office would take him or his parents to prison or back to their 8 . And here he was in my class trying to learn a(n) 9 language, which he had never touched before.
When he was in my class, one thing that stood out was that he had a(n) 10 time speaking English. But when he walked in my room yesterday, all of that was missing. In walked a calm, 11 boy who spoke and understood English far better than when he left me in June. He even 12 to speak to my class in the sixth grade in English. He told me he remembered doing sign language and the video I made to help him 13 his English.
His visit 14 a lot to me not only because he has made great progress, but also because it reminded me what it means to be a teacher ----- to have a lasting influence on 15 .

The Pecan Thief
When I was six years old, I was visiting my grandfather’s
farm in Kansas. Grandpa had sent me into the 36 to gather
pecans for us to enjoy later.
Pecan picking was really 37 work and my little basket
was only half full. I wasn’t about to 38 Grandpa down. Just
then something caught my 39 . A large brown squirrel was
a few feet away. I watched as he picked up a pecan, hurried to a tree and 40 in a large hole in the trunk. A moment later the squirrel 41 out and climbed down to the ground to pick up another nut. Once again, he took the pecan back to his hiding place.
Not so 42 anymore, I thought. I dashed over to the tree and looked into the hole. It was 43 with pecans! Golden pecans were right there for taking. This was my 44 . Handful by handful, I scooped all of those pecans into my basket. Now it was full! I was so 45 of myself. I couldn’t wait to show Grandpa all the pecans. 46 , I ran back and shouted, “Look at all the pecans!” He looked into the basket and said, “Well, well, how did you find so many?” I told him how I’d 47 the squirrel and taken the pecans from his hiding place.
Grandpa congratulated me on how smart I’d been in observing the squirrel and his habits. Then he did something that 48 me. He handed the basket back to me and put his arm gently 49 my shoulders.
“That squirrel worked very hard to gather his winter 50 of food,” he said. “Now that all of his pecans are gone, don’t you think that little squirrel will 51 the cold winter? ”
“I didn’t think about that, ” I said.
“I know,” Grandpa said. “But a good man should never take 52 of someone else’s hard work.”
Suddenly I felt a bit 53 . The image of the starving squirrel wouldn’t 54 my mind. There was only one thing I could do. I carried the basket back to the tree and poured all the nuts into the hole.
I didn’t eat any pecans that night, but I had something much more filling—the 55 of knowing I had done just the right thing.
