Question

I had worried myself sick over Simon’s mother coming to see me. I was a new    , and I gave an honest account of the students’ work. In Simon’s case, the grades were awfully low. He couldn’t read his own handwriting.        he was a bright student. He discussed adult subjects with nearly adult comprehension. His work in no way reflected his       .

So when Simon’s mother entered the room, my palms(手掌心) were sweating. I was completely       for her lisses on both my cheeks. “I came to thank you,” she said, surprising me beyond speech.      me, Simon had become a different person. He talked of how he     me, he had began to make friends, and for the first time in his twelve years, he had      spent an afternoon at a friend’s house. She wanted to tell me how grateful she was for the     I had nurtured(培養(yǎng)) in her son. She kissed me again and left.

I sat, stunned (驚呆), for about half an hour,     what had just happened. How did I make such a life-changing difference to that boy without        knowing it? What I finally came to        was one day, several months before, when some students were         reports in the front of the class, Jeanne spoke       , and to encourage her to raise her voice, L had sai, “Speak up. Simon’s the expert on this. He is the        one you have to convince, and he can’t hear you in the        of the room.” That was it. From that day on, Simon had sat up straighter, paid more attention,     more, and became happy. And it was all because he    to be the last kid in the last row. The boy who most needed        was the one who took the last seat that day.

It taught me the most    lesson over the years of my teaching career, and I’m thankful that it came      and positively. A small kindness can indeed make a difference.
