Question

【题目】 As a new teacher at Dull Primary School in Denver, Kyle Schwartz thought of a simple way to get to know her third graders, most of whom came from ______ families. She asked them to complete the note, "I wish my teacher knew..." and share something about themselves.

Their honest answers gave the teacher a chance to understand her students' difficulties. "I wish my teacher knew I have no pencils to do my homework," ______ one child. "I wish my teacher knew sometimes my reading homework is not signed, because my mom is not free a lot," wrote another. Some showed hope for the ______,"I wish my teacher knew that I want to go to college."

"Some notes are really heartbreaking." Schwartz tells ABC News. "I care ______ about each of my students and I don't want them to be poor forever." She explains, "I hoped to know ______ I could better support them. So I ______ to let them tell me what I needed to know. That was why I created the fill-in-the-blank exercise."

______ the third graders were allowed to answer anonymously (匿名), most wanted to include names. And some were even excited to read their notes out loud, ______ one shy girl who bravely said that she was lonely. "After she told the class, 'I don't have friends to ______ me,' I was worried what they would do," Schwartz tells US Weekly. "However, I felt encouraged to see how much support the other kids offered her. They invited her to play at break and sit with them at lunch. You see, children have an unusual ability to show empathy (同情) ."
