I looked out at the smiling faces packed into the school gym. The applause filled my ears. I had done it. I had really done it! I found a new person inside me, a much more daring, outgoing person who had been hidden all along, just waiting for the ______ to emerge(出现).

Just a few months earlier, it was impossible to ______ myself acting in a play in front of two hundred people. But without my teacher, Mrs. Sather, I couldn't get that opportunity.

In the first and second grade, I was extremely shy. But Mrs. Sather always ______ me.

One day, she announced, "Our class was going to ______ a play. Anybody, want to try?"

A few excited hands shot up-mine, of course, was not one of them.

After school she stopped me and invited me for a talk. Puzzled, I followed her to her desk. She said, "I think you are ______ for the lead character. But I was surprised you didn't raise your hand."

Me, the lead? Was she crazy?

Mrs. Sather gazed into my eyes as if seeing my inner _______ locked away inside. "But I'd like you to give this a try for me, " she continued. "If you reach for the stars, you might at least grab a piece of the moon.

I realized it was time to throw off ______ and show the world who I really was. I looked Mrs. Sather right in her sparkling(闪亮的)blue eyes and said, "OK. I'll try."

In the following months, in spite of fears, I did everything I could to ______ I could do it in practice.

At the end of the play, when the audience applauded, I knew they were not just cheering for my performance that night, but for the performances they knew would come in later years because of my newfound confidence.

It is reported that tea has helped poor farmers in Yunnan find a way out of poverty(贫穷)thanks to the efforts of a man, who had a chance to come across some local farmers there.

Ren Huaican was suffering mass mouth takers(溃疡)when he first visited the Jingmai Mountain in Pu'er city in the spring of 2006. However, after picking off several leaves from the old tea trees and chewing them, he felt amazed to find the pain was gone the next morning. The fact that the green leaves worked magic for him made Ren begin to show great interest in the tea from Yunnan.

During his search for tea production bases in the mountains across Yunnan, he found that the local tea business was scattered(分散的)and most of the tea farmers were living in extreme poverty. Ren realized what led to the tea industry problem was not only the underdeveloped tea market, but also the poverty of the local tea farmers. So he made up his mind to change things in the tea industry in order to help the local people get out of poverty.

In September 2006, he established the Kunming Colorful Yunnan King-Shine Tea Industry Co. It hired poor peasants from neighboring areas to remove weeds and pick tea leaves. Professional technicians were invited to teach the peasants how to do their jobs scientifically. Besides, for the farmers who lived off the old tea trees, the company taught them how to scientifically manage their trees and produce the best tea. As a result, their tea quality has greatly improved, and the price has gone up. In this way, the tea company has helped many people get out of poverty.

One manager in the company turned down higher incomes and job opportunities in Beijing. He found it hard to leave because of all the things they had done and all the people he had known. "We are a big family, " he said.
