Each of us fails from time to time. If we are wise, we accept these failures as a necessary 31 of the learning process. But too often as parents and teachers we deny this same right to our children. We convey(勧器) 32 by words or by actions that failure is something to be ashamed of, that nothing but 33 performance pleases us.
34 I see a child under this kind of pressure ,I think of Jack. He is a shy, nervous perfectionist. He 35 answered questions!he might be 36 .
I try my best to 37 his self-confidence. And I repeatedly 38 God for direction. But 39 changed until midterm, when Mary, a student teacher, came to our classroom.

That¨s what you must learn to do, too. ̄ Jack looked up with 44 in his eyes---the first time I¨d see on his face that year.

When I was about 12 years old, I really wanted a new bike! I __36__ my parents my birthday wish, but I knew there was little hope because my family could __37__ have that money.
On my birthday my parents told me they had my __38__ outside in the back yard. At once I __39__ out to the yard. There was my bike, __40__ it wasn¨t the bike that I thought it would be. This one was pink, old and worn with age. It was so __41__! I thought I __42__ my parents¨ feelings because I could see the disappointment __43__ their faces and I was sure they could see it on mine. I __44__ the old bike and rode it, feeling __45__ that I had made my parents feel this way. So I put on a smile, rode as fast as I could and didn¨t __46__...
As time went by, I began to understand my parents gave me __47__ much more than just a rusty��伏倨議��old bike. They gave me a life lesson about __48__. When you give something out of love, it doesn¨t matter what it is in fact. What matters is the love that is in it. I like to remember this __49__ because giving a gift is not about money. It¨s about how much love you can feel from it. Do remember, a gift that __50__ two dollars isn¨t any less valuable��嗤勺峙議��than one that costs one hundred dollars, or even more.
