As Teachers' Day draw near，I would like to express my thanks to Ms. Li，who taught me English last year. At that time，I was having a trouble studying English and my scores fell. Ms. Li encouraged me and tells me her story that she never gave up before her studies didn't go well. She also said that it was necessary make efforts so that I would not regret waste time. Her words were the best medicine because she stood in her shoes to deal with problems and gave me sincere advices. She did not simple comfort me. Her teaching methods also counted. It had never crossed my mind that studying could be so interested until I met Ms. Li.

   A little girl studied at her desk in the purple bedroom of her childhood home. The girl’s homework was to _______ a true story. Simple. Yet there she was, _______ it for a long time for better past her bedtime.

So attentive was the girl — changing words to _______ the mood (语气), erasing passages to move the story along, reading out loud to _______ the rhyme — that she jumped when she _______ her father’s hand on her shoulder. Dad was a business manager. He liked to _______ and watch TV at night. It was not his _______ to check up on her.

“Daddy?” she said, looking up at him. “I think I just decided what kind of job I want when I grow up. I like to write about things that really _______. I like to move the words around.” “I’m glad to see you take your schoolwork so _______,” he said. “I’m proud of you.”________ he kissed the top of her head.

Decades later, the girl made great efforts in writing, which ________ her a top job at Reader’s Digest, a ________ that has for nearly a century told true stories of ________ interest. As she walked out of the office that afternoon, she ________ the night in her purple bedroom and decided that for every issue (期刊), she would write her editor’s note as a story. That way, she would honor the ________ of the magazine. She ________ her mom with the news of her job. “Oh, honey, I wish your father were ________,” her mom wrote. “He would be so proud.”

“As an ________, I am doing the work I love, writing about people of interest doing things that matter. It’s been a (n)________ to connect with the thousands of you who have ________ to me. Let’s continue to do so,” the girl said.

   As everyone grows, they realize there will always be someone who is better. I learned this _______ in the second year in high school. The shock this experience brought was so great that I felt my _______ was nothing left. That was all it took；one person _______ everything.

Her name is Jenny. She was the girl who _______ raised her hand and had useful comments  about everything. When teachers needed challenging problems to be answered, they _______ answers from her. And if students needed _______ they went to consult her. I didn't _______ her, but I admitted her presence annoyed me. In the first year, as a model student, I was the person everyone _______ and all the teachers trusted. Then she came out of _______! We also had two __________ together. There I got to see what everybody thought of her. When an exam finished, it became a __________ that she got the top grade and it didn't __________ to my classmates whether I was right there, __________ I also got an excellent grade. They would cross me and __________ her! I was left being ignored. __________ , I didn't feel like trying anymore.

I stopped trying to put on a show because no one was __________ anymore. Later, she was called to make a（n）   __________ at the graduation ceremony and she talked of her hard work in it. I realized all her hard work got her there, not her desire to __________ . It finally hit me that Jenny __________ the attention she got. She showed me how big the world is and how __________ the world I used to live in. I'll do my best because I know it will pay off.
