6.1 My professor brother and I have an argument about head and heart,about whether he overvalues IQ while I lean more toward EQ.We typically have this debate about people-can you be friends with an animal?I'd love it if our dog could fetch the morning paper and then read it to me,but I actually care much more about her loyal and innocent heart.There's already enough thinking going on in our house,and we probably spend too much time in our heads.Where we need some role modeling is in instinct,and that's where a dog is a roving revelation.
2 I did not grow up with dogs,which meant that my older daughter's respectful but unyielding determination to get one required some adjustment on my part.I often felt she was training me:from age 6to 9,she gently schooled me in their personalities,whispered to the dogs we encountered so they would charm and persuade me,demonstrated by her self-discipline that she was ready for the responsibility.And thus came our dog Twist,whom I sometimes mistake for a third daughter.
3 At first I thought the challenge would be to train her to sit,to walk calmly beside us and not go wildly.But I soon discovered how much more we had to learn from her than she from us.
4 For example,that the secret to a child's success is less rare genius than persistence,Twist's ability to stay on task is a model for us all,especially if the task is trying to capture the sunbeam that flicks around the living room as the wind blows through the branches outside.She never succeeds,and never gives up.This includes when she runs square into walls.
5 Then there is her unfailing patience,which breaks down only when she senses that dinnertime was 15minutes ago and we have failed to notice.Even then she is more eager than indignant,and her refusal to whine shows a restraint of which I'm not always capable when hungry.
6 The lesson I value most is forgiveness.Twist first offered this when she was still very young,7months old.We took her to the vet to be spayed (切除卵巢).We turned her over to a stranger,who performed a procedure that was probably not pleasant.But when the vet returned her to us,limp and tender,there was no blame.It was as though she already knew that we would not intentionally cause her pain.She forgave and curled up with her head on my daughter's lap.
7 I suppose we could have concluded that she was just blindly loyal and docile.But eventually we knew better.She will ignore us when there are more interesting things to look at,rebuke us when we are careless,bark when she has urgent messages to send.But her patience with our failings and her willingness to give us a second chance are a daily lesson in gratitude.
8 An age that is all about growth and risk needs some anchors and weights.Sometimes I think Twist's devotion keeps my girls on a benevolent leash,one that hangs quietly at their side as they trot(小跑) along but occasionally yanks them back to safety and solid ground.
9 We've weighed so many decisions so carefully in raising our daughters-what school to send them to and what church to  attend,when to give them cell phones and with what precautions.But when it comes to what really shapes their character and binds our family,I never would have thought we would owe so much to its smallest member.

16.I walked up to the counter.Behind it was a lady with glasses on the tip of her nose and gray hair on her head.
"Excuse me,"I said.She looked up."You're that Clements kid,"she said."I'm Miss Bee.Come closer and let me get a look at you."She pushed her glasses up her nose."I can describe you to the police if something goes missing from the store."
"I'm not a thief!"I was shocked.I was seven,too young to be a thief!
"From what I can see,you're not much of anything.But I can tell you've got potential."She went back to reading her newspaper.
"I need to get these."I said,holding up my list."So?Go get them."Miss Bee pointed to a sign on the screen door."I'm not your servant,so I suggest you get yourself a basket and start filling."
I visited Miss Bee several times a week that summer.Sometimes she short-changed me.Other times she overcharged."That can of beans is only twenty nine cents"I corrected her one afternoon.I had watched the numbers change on the cash register closely,and Miss Bee had added 35 cents.She didn't seem embarrassed.She just looked at me over her glasses and fixed the price.
But she ever let me declare victory.All summer long she found ways to play tricks on me.No sooner had I learned how to pronounce bicarbonate of soda(小苏打)and memorized its location on the shelf than Miss Bee rearranged the shelve and made me hunt for it all over again.
One day before I left,she said,"I know what you think of me,but I don't care!Each of us is put on this earth for a reason.I believe my job is to teach every child I meet life lessons.When you get older you'll be glad our paths crossed!"Glad I met Miss Bee?Ha!The idea was absurd…
Until one day my daughter asked me to finish her math problems."If I do it for you,how will you ever learn to do it yourself?"I said.Suddenly,I remembered the lady Miss Bee.

6.Sonya and her family have been homeless since she was 3 years old.Over the years,they have moved more than 15 times to different shelters around New York City.Moving around was hard on Sonya.At school,Sonya hid her homeless from teachers and other students.She didn't want to be treated differently from other kids.
In sixth grade,Sonya discovered a way to deal with some of her stress.She began studying dance at her middle school."IT was a way for me to express myself,instead of just holding everything in,"she explains.Soon,Sonya auditioned(试演)for a summer dance camp run by Alvin Alley,a famous dance company.She was accepted."I was excited,"says Sonya.
Dancing became an even more important part of Sonya's life in high school.But things were not going well for Sonya at school.Each time her family moved to a new shelter,Sonya often took care of her younger sisters and brothers.She helped them get ready in the morning and took them to school.They would be on time,but Sonya would be late.
Worrying about her family kept Sonya from thinking about her own future.That changed the summer after 11th grade.Sonya learned she would have to go to summer school to graduate.She became determined to succeed,no matter what."It was a wake-up call,"she says."I had to focus on school and on myself."
Sonya made up the work that she had missed,and finally graduated from high school.No one in her family had gone to college before.But in September 2015,Sonya enrolled in the State University of New York at Potsdam.She plans to become a doctor for kids and to teach dance to children who have disabilities.
