Dora and Annie were called to the teacher's office for breaking the glass apple on Mrs.Marley's desk.They sat opposite Mr.Barlow and they looked quite nervous.

"Would either of you like to explain what happened?"Mr.Barlow asked.

Dora took a deep breath,"I was looking at Mrs.Marley's glass apple.The sun was shining on it,and it made a rainbow on the desk.I thought the rainbow would get bigger if we moved the apple."

"So you moved it?"Mr.Barlow asked.

Dora pointed at Annie. "She did it,but the rainbow got smaller.I tried to get the apple back,but it fell on the floor and broke."

"Thank you,Dora.Annie,tell me what happened in your own words

"Dora said she wanted to make the rainbow bigger,so I told her how my sister used a sun catcher to make a rainbow on the ceiling.I tried to show her that,but she said the rainbow was getting smaller and she could do it better.She tried to take it

"It was not!" Dora cried angrily.

Mr.Barlow stood up."Do you want to know what I think?" "Yes!" They said.

"I think Dora wanted to make the rainbow bigger and Annie tried to help." "Exactly!" Annie said.

"Not so fast,"Mr.Barlow said. "Annie,you thought you could make the rainbow better,and the apple fell and broke.Does that sound right?"

"So,we're both to blame,"Dora said.

"Yes.The real blame isn't in who broke the apple,"Mr.Barlow said. "It was in the fact that you both touched something that didn't belong to you."

"I guess we did,"Annie said.

"We should say sorry to Mrs.Marley,"Dora added.

"I think you both learned a valuable lesson,"Mrs.Marley said,smiling in the doorway.

I used to be very shy, so I usually just listened to other people's conversations. My teacher Mrs. Smith always encouraged me to communicate with others.

 One day, she told us that our class would put on a play she had written. "I need someone to play the lead role. Does anyone want to try?" she asked. A few excited hands were raised up— mine wasn't one of them. Mrs. Smith walked up to me and said," I think you' re perfect for it."

Me, the lead? Mrs. Smith continued," I was thinking of you for the role when I wrote the play!" Suddenly, I thought it was time to throw away my shyness and show the world who I really was. I looked at Mrs. Smith and said," OK, I'll try."

After five months of practicing, the big day finally arrived. I felt so nervous. My knees shook and my heart beat like I'd just run a mile." It doesn't matter how you do tonight," said Mrs. Smith, as if reading my thoughts." You've already shown yourself how wonderful you are. That's the most important thing for you."

Mrs. Smith was right. When I stepped on the stage(舞台), I showed that I could take chances(机会) and be brave enough to make a big change for myself — a girl with new- found confidence(信心). I thanked Mrs. Smith a lot. She helped me to change by encouraging me to act the lead role of the play. It was a great experience and I'll never forget it.
