Sudha Chandran, a classical dancer from India, had to have herright leg cut after an accident. She was also cut off on her career (事业) road.

    Though the accident brought her bright career to a stop, shedidn't1. In the painful months, Sudha met a doctorwho had a(n)2 onher leg. So eagerly she wanted to go back to dancing after she had been fitted witha man-made leg. Sudha believed in herself and thought she could realize her dream,so she3 onher brave journey back to the world of dancing.

    After every public performance, she might ask her dad aboutit. "You still have a long way to go!" That was the4 she used to get from her father. In January 1984,Sudha made a historic comeback5giving a public performance in Bombay. Sheperformed in such a great manner that it moved6 to tears (眼泪) and this performance pushed her to number oneposition again. That evening when she asked her dad the same question, he didn't7 anything. He just touched herfeet as a praise.

    Sudha's comeback was so8 that a film producer decided to make the storyinto a hit film. It has moved more and more people.

    People wondered9 Sudhacould manage to dance again. When she was asked the question, she would just answerquite10 ,"YOUDON'T NEED FEET TO DANCE." Where there is a will, there is a way.

A few weeks ago, I went into Chase's class for help. I e-mailed Chase's teacher one evening and said, "My son keeps telling me that his homework is maths, but I'm not sure whether I should believe him. Help, please." She e-mailed right back and said, "No problem! I can help Chase after school anytime." And I said, "No, not him. Me. He gets it Help me."

And that's why I stayed with Chase's maths teacher. We talked about teaching children. We agreed that subjects like maths and reading are not the most important things that are learned in a classroom. We also talked about something else--kindness and bravery. 

And then she told me this. 

Every Friday afternoon Chase's teacher asks her students to take out a piece of paper and write down whom they'd like to sit with the following week. She also asks the students to nominate (推荐) who is the most popular student that week. They needn't write down their names on the paper. 

After the students go home, she takes out those pieces of paper and studies them. In fact, Chase's teacher is not looking for a new seating chart (表) or "popular students". She is looking for lonely children. She's looking for the ones who don't want to talk with others. She is finding out whose names are not noticed by their classmates.     ★        

After watching Columbine, the wise woman knew that all violence (暴力) comes um loneliness. So she decided to start fighting violence early and often, and what she is doing is SAVING LIVES. 

And she finds the lonely kids from those lists and tries to help them. It's maths to her. All is love--even Maths. 

A little boy runs to a train station. 1 is out of breath（上气不接下气）when he gets there. 2 the train leaves and the boy can't catch it. 

3 a man beside the boy. He4 to the boy，"If you run faster，you can catch the train. "

"I run as 5 as I can，"says the boy. 

"But 6 are you late for the train? "asks the man. 

"I start too 7 ，" answers the boy. " 8 ，I should start early. "

Many young people don't 9 at the beginning. They lose（失去） many good chances. They feel 10 when it it too late. 

Friends are very important in people's lives. Some have1 views and interests, but2 like the same things. Should friends be different3 the same? In my opinion, I don't care. I have two best friends, Wang Lei and Lin Ying. Wang Lei4 like me. I am5 than most of the students in my class, and Wang Lei is also quiet. And we both enjoy6 . On weekends, we often go to the library to do some reading. But the other friend of mine, Lin Ying, is7 different from me. She is much more outgoing, and she likes8 and often makes me laugh. She also likes9 , so she is more athletic（体格健壮的）. I don't think differences are important in a10 . What's your opinion?
