查看习题详情和答案>>My friend Monty Roberts told me a story about a young boy. One day at school, the boy was asked to write a paper 26 what he wanted to be and do when he grew up.
That night he wrote a seven – paper 27 his dream of owning a farm. He put a great deal of his heart into the paper and the next day he handed it in to his 28 . Two days later he received his paper back. On the 29 page was a large red F with a 30 that read, “See me after class.” The boy went to see the teacher after class and asked, “ 31 did I receive an F?” The teacher said, “This is an unrealistic dream for a young boy like you. Owning a farm requires a lot of money. There’s no 32 a young man could ever do it.” Then the teacher added, “ 33 you will rewrite this paper, I will reconsider your 34 .”
The boy went home and 35 about it long and hard. Finally, after a week, he turned in the 36 paper, making no changes.
Monty then said, “I tell you this story because you are sitting on my farm. I 37 have that school paper over fireplace.” He added, “The best part of the story is that two summers ago the same schoolteacher brought 30 kids to camp out on my farm. When the teacher was 38 , he said, ‘Look Monty, I can tell you this now. When I was your teacher, I was something of a dream 39 . During those years I stole a lot of kids’ dreams. Fortunately you had enough courage not to 40 yours.”

children a lie. Like most teachers, she looked at her students and said that she loved them all the same.
But that was impossible, because there in the front row, slumped in his seat, was a little boy named
Teddy Stoddard. Mrs Thompson noticed that he didn't play well with the other children, that his clothes
were messy and that he constantly needed a bath. And Teddy could be unpleasant. It got to the point
where Mrs Thompson would actually take delight in marking his papers with a broad red pen, making
bold X's and then putting a big "F" at the top of his papers.
However, when she reviewed his file, she got a surprise.
Teddy's first grade teacher wrote, "Teddy is a bright child with a ready laugh. He does his work
neatly and has good manners…, he is a joy to be around ."
His second grade teacher wrote, "Teddy is an excellent student, well liked by his classmates, but he is
troubled because his mother has a terminal illness and life at home must be a struggle."
His third grade teacher wrote, " His mother's death has been hard on him. He tries to do his best but
his father doesn't show much interest and his home life will soon affect him if some steps aren't taken."
Teddy's fourth grade teacher wrote, "Teddy is withdrawn and doesn't show much interest in school.
He doesn't have many friends and sometimes sleeps in class."
Now, Mrs Thompson was ashamed of herself and felt worse when her students brought her
beautifully wrapped Christmas presents. Teddy's present, however, was clumsily wrapped in rough
brown grocery paper. Taking her time she opened it to reveal Teddy's gifts, a shinestone bracelet with
stones missing and a quarter full perfume bottle. How the children laughed! " What a pretty bracelet! Mm,
lovely
perfume! Perfect on my wrist." The children were silent.Alone together, after school, Teddy told Mrs Thompson, " Today you smelled just like my Mom used
to …" His teacher cried all night and,from that day, she stopped teaching reading, writing ,and arithmetic
and began to teach children instead.
