Leaving Her Mark。

Molly is a little hose. A few yeas ago,she was badly hurt by a dog. The dog bit all four of Molly s legs and left a large cut in her face. Molly s owner,Kaye Harris,took her to an animal hospital. Doctors there tried their best to save Molly s life,but soon one of her legs became very infected(感染)The only way to save her life was to remove the leg.

At fist,doctors thought Molly would die. But Molly changed their minds. Doctors noticed that she shifted(转移)her weight, and rested her good leg from time to time. They knew that Molly had amazing cleverness and a strong will. She wanted to live. Several doctors operated on Molly,and removed her infected leg. A false(假的)leg was made for her and doctors gave Molly a special horseshoe at the bottom of her false leg. This horseshoe had a stamp of a smiling face in it!

After the operation,Molly walked around on all four legs,as if nothing had ever happened to her!Now,with every step she takes,she stamps a smile in the dirt. Wherever she goes,Molly leaves her mark. Without saying a word,she speaks to people with her kind eyes. Even when she walks away,she leaves an impression.

Molly leaves her mark in other ways,too. Kaye Harris takes Molly to schools,nursing homes, army bases and hospitals. Molly is famous because she makes people smile and gives them hope. A book is even written about Molly!Molly has become a symbol of hope for people of all ages. Her story leaves a smile on people s faces,just as clearly as her horseshoe leaves a mark in the sand.

Note-taking is a skill that can help you do well in all your schoolwork. It can make you confident when you are studying. But unluckily, most students don’t know how to take notes.

★Write down key facts. If your teacher writes notes on the blackboard, that’s great. You can copy them or write down the most important facts of all in class. Different teachers do things differently. For example, some teachers may focus on (关注) lots of dates and facts in class, but they only write the important ones on the blackboard. Other teachers may not write anything down, but they may say something important again and again.

★Ask. Don’t be afraid to ask your teacher to repeat (重复说) what you miss. If your teacher speaks too fast and you can’t follow what he is saying, you can ask him after class.

★Compare. Comparing your notes with your classmates’ can be good for your learning. It can also help you and your classmates correct (纠正) some mistakes.

★Organize. Note-taking also needs organization. Keep notes for each subject in one notebook, so that you can find everything easily when a test comes.

★Good note-taking takes time. If you decide to recopy your notes every evening, you’ll surely have less time to watch TV. But you’ll save time in the coming test.
