When I was a little girl, I was very shy and unconfident. I used to be afraid of {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(speak) in public, so I always kept quiet in class. I never answered the teachers' questions. I just listened to them {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(quiet).

But one day, things changed. I {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(listen) to my Chinese teacher Ms. Song carefully {#blank#}4{#/blank#}usual. Suddenly, she asked the whole class {#blank#}5{#/blank#}question which was quite easy. Ms. Song looked around, and then her eyes were on me. She asked me {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(answer) it. Feeling nervous, I stood up slowly and was unable to say a word. "Come on! Believe {#blank#}7{#/blank#}yourself. You are the best!" said Ms. Song. I looked at Ms. Song in the eyes, and I could feel her encouragements. I {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(take) courage from it and answered the question {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(correct). Ms. Song gave me a big smile and so did my classmates. From then {#blank#}10{#/blank#}, I started to  answer the teachers' questions in class.

    Since then, whenever I meet challenges, I always say to myself, "You're the best."

    I like the book To be the best teacher because it reminds me of Miss Green {#blank#}1{#/blank#}is my primary English teacher. She was {#blank#}2{#/blank#} outgoing teacher. She liked singing songs very much and she especially liked the music that she could sing along {#blank#}3{#/blank#}.She always made her classes full of fun. What's more, we {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (praise) by her for any tiny progress. So we tried to get good {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (grade) on English. However, I was poor in spoken English at that time. Miss Green advised me {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (improve) it by speaking in public as often as possible. Also, she encouraged me that no matter {#blank#}7{#/blank#}difficulty I met, I shouldn't {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (give) up. Later, thanks to {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (she), I improved my spoken English. So without doubt, Miss Green was a teacher who influenced me {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (great).
