The moment happened 30 yours ago but it was still fresh in my memory．I was a college freshman and had 1 up most of the night before laughing and talking with friends．Now just before my first 2 of the day my eyelids were feeling heavier and heavier and my head was drifting down to my desk to make my textbook a 3 ．A few minutes nap(小睡)time before class couldn't 4 , I thought．
BOOM! I lifted my head suddenly and my eyes opened wider than saucers．I looked around with my 5 beating wildly trying to find the cause of the 6 ．My young professor was looking at me with a boyish(孩子气的)smile on his face．He had 7 dropped the textbooks he was carrying onto his desk．“Good morning!”, he said still 8 ．“I am glad to see everyone is 9 ．Now let's get started．”
For the next hour I wasn't sleepy at all．It wasn't from the 10 of my professor's textbook alarm clock either．It was instead from the 11 discussion he led．With knowledge and good 12 he made the material come 13 ．His insight was full of both wisdom and loving-kindness．And the enthusiasm and joy that he 14 with were contagious(有感染力的)．I 15 the classroom not only wide awake, but a little 16 and a little better as well．
I learned something far more important than not 17 in class that day too．I learned that if you are going to do something in this life，do it well，do it with 18 ．What a wonderful place this would be if all of us did our work joyously and well．Don't sleepwalk(梦游)your way through 19 then．Wake up! Let your love fill your work．Life is too 20 not to live it well．
My neighbor's eight-year-old daughter used to live in the countryside, her native place．Recently her parents 1 her to town to live with them．Wild and uneducated, she would use 2 words when she was angry．Sometimes she went so far as to 3 on the ground, to the 4 of all people around．Her parents tried to 5 her by beating and kicking．However, she became more 6 ．Finally they became thoroughly 7 with her．
One day their next-door 8 , a retired teacher, gave the girl a snow-white dress, which was very 9 ．It immediately caught the girl's 10 and made them shine brightly．
The girl put on the dress and became quite a 11 person．She no longer acted rudely or hit others．She 12 seldom rolled on the floor．She knew running wild was not 13 for her in a beautiful dress．Since then, the girl had been 14 , neat, and lovely．
The story set me 15 a lot．Perhaps everyone has a beautiful dress 16 somewhere in his or her heart．Only some people are not aware of it, 17 it or take no notice of it． 18 is a powerful force or weapon－that's something 19 by many of us．It can arouse fine qualities that humans are 20 with but have so far hidden somewhere．It has a soul-shaking influence that is indeed unmatched．
As a music teacher, I have always known that music touches the soul．It can 1 all kinds of barriers to reach students in a very special way．It can be the 2 for each child to find their light．I would like to 3 a story about it．
For a few years 1 was 4 with the opportunity to teach disabled students．One of my most 5 students was a five-year-old girl called Vanessa, who had difficulty walking, and could not speak．We 6 sat on the floor for our music lessons and Vanessa liked to 7 on my lap(膝上)．One of her favorite songs was John the Rabbit．”It was a call and response song where I sang the call and the students 8 twice while singing the repeating phrase,“Oh, yes!”Vanessa liked to 9 her hands together with mine and clap with me．We probably performed that song during every class, Vanessa and I clapping together．But she 10 said or sang a word．
One day, when the song was finished, Vanessa turned around, 11 me in the eye, clapped her tiny hands twice and said the words“Oh, yes!”I opened my mouth in 12 and for that moment 1 was the one who could not speak．When my heart 13 started beating again, I looked over at the assistant teacher to find her also 14 ．Through music, we had made an awesome connection．
Several years later, I met Vanessa on the street in town．She waved with a big 15 on her face and then clapped her hands twice, imitating the song we had 16 so many times in our music class．The little girl, 17 her connection with music, left an impression on me that will last forever．Every child has the 18 to learn and grow．It is up to us to 19 the way to reach each and every one of our students．We all must find each child's 20 ．
When I was about twelve, I suddenly developed a great passion(爱好)for writing poems．I 1 all my other hobbies, such as 2 stamps, and spent all my 3 time reading poetry and writing it．This habit of 4 poetry on every possible occasion soon got me into trouble at school．If a lesson did not 5 me, I would take out my 6 and start writing poems in class．Of course I did this very 7 , but it was not long before I got 8 ．One day while I was 9 writing a poem during a geography lesson, I looked up to find the teacher 10 me, looking very angry because I was not 11 attention．He tore the poem up, with a 12 not to waste time in his lesson．All the same I was convinced(深信)that I had written a good poem, so that evening I wrote it out again from 13 ．Not long after, I read about a poetry 14 and I decided to send in my 15 ．Weeks later, long after I had given up hope, I got a letter telling me I had won first 16 ．Everyone at school was very impressed－except the 17 teacher, who 18 me more carefully than ever．He was quite 19 I was not going to write poetry in his 20 ．
Peter and Paul had a permission from their parents to camp in a field close to their farm．But, being adventurous boys, they know it would be more 1 to camp in the woods that lay beyond the river．Excitedly, the boys 2 with their tent and food．
Carying their heavy 3 , the two brothers walked along the riverbank, hardly noticing the distance or the sun beating down．．They were eager to reach their 4 before lunchtime．As they entered the cool, shadowy woods, they began to search for a suitable camping spot．Peter wanted to 5 close to the river at the edge of the woods, 6 Paul, who was older, insisted that they camp further away．7 Peter followed his brother deeper into the 8 ．“This really is a wonderful setting!”said Paul in excitement．They 9 thei tent, and settled down to eat the sandwiches they had made, then decided to find their way 10 to the river to catch some fish．
“
Are you sure that this is the right 11 ?”whisperde Peter shakily．“I’m sure we passed that hollow tree just a while ago．”Paul walked 12 silently．“Look, there it is again．We’re lost, aren’t we?”complained Peter．Paul had to admit that he didn’t know where they were．13 , they were a long distantce from where they were 14 to be．They were not even 15 of where they had set up their camp．They set in 16 for a few minutes until Peter had a bright idea．“Why don’t we look for clues(线索)the way trackers 17 in the movies?We weren’t careful about how we walked, so I’m sure we would have left 18 some broken tree branches and leaves．”
Carefully, the boys 19 the marks that they had left, until finally they found their campsite．Hurriedly, they packed their belongings and set off 20 the direction of the river．
What would their parents think of their adventure?
