My first boss said to me at my job interview, "A woman's place is in the house." But he saw that I __53__ good results and even had good things to say about me.

　　Blessed indeed is the man who hears many gentle voices call him father!

　　Lydia M. Child

　　When I was a little girl, my father had a time-honored tradition.

　　36

　　my bedtime story, he would give me a nose

　　37

　　, and whisper the most

　　38

　　words into my ear. “Michelle, of all the little girls in the whole wide world . . .” he would pause.

　　“ Yes, Daddy?”

　　“ How did your mommy and I get so

　　39

　　to get the best one?”

　　40

　　he had time to finish, I would say, “You got me!” And then he would

　　41

　　, “The best little girl in the whole wide world, and we got you.” He would end with a bear hug and

　　42

　　kiss to my forehead.

　　Years

　　43

　　and my father never missed a night,

　　“ Yes, Daddy?” I stared at the floor.

　　“ How did your mom and I get so lucky to get the best one?”

　　After I

　　from college, I became engaged. My father never missed a night to

　　47

　　or leave a message

　　48

　　me how special I was to him. I even wondered if he would continue calling after I got

　　49

　　, but he didn’t. The daily calls I had taken for granted all my life ended the day he

　　50

　　from cancer, only weeks before my wedding. I deeply missed

　　51

　　the days with my father.

　　Standing behind the white church doors, I waited for the wedding march to begin. Before we walking down the aisle, my brother

　　52

　　inside his pocket and handed me an ivory napkin. Inscribed (题写) were the words:

　　Of all the precious

　　53

　　in the whole wide world, how did Mark get so lucky to marry the best one? He married you, Michelle, and he is so lucky! I am so proud of you, my little girl.

　　Love, Dad

　　Without

　　Each of us fails from time to time. If we are wise, we accept these failures as a  51  part of the learning process. But all too often as parents and teachers we disallow this  52  right to our children. When I see a child  53  to this kind of pressure, I think of Donnie.   

　　Donnie was my youngest third grader. His  54  of failure kept him from classroom games that other children enjoyed. He 55  answered questions — he might be wrong.

　　I tried my best to build his  56. But nothing changed until midterm, when Mary Anne, a student teacher, was assigned （安排）to our classroom.  

　　She was young and pretty, and she loved children. My pupils, Donnie included, 57  her.   

　　One morning, we were working math problems at the chalkboard. Donnie had 58  the problems with painstaking neatness. Pleased with his progress, I 59  the children with Mary Anne and went for art materials. When I returned, Donnie was in 60 . He’d missed the third problem.  

　　My student teacher looked at me in despair. Suddenly her face  61. From the desk we shared, she got a container filled with pencils.  

　　"Look, Donnie," she said, kneeling beside him and gently 62 the tear-stained face from his arms. "I’ve got something to 63 you." She removed the pencils, one at a time, and placed them on his desk.  

　　"See these 64 , Donnie," she continued. "They belong to Mrs. Lindstrom and me. See how the erasers are 65 ? That’s because we make mistakes too. But we erase the mistakes and try again. That’s what you 66  learn to do, too."   

　　She kissed him and stood up. "Here," she said, "I’ll leave one of these pencils on 67 desk so you’ll remember that everybody makes mistakes, 68  teachers." Donnie looked up with love in his eyes and a smile.   

　　The pencil became Donnie’s  69  possession. That, together with Mary Anne’s frequent encouragement, gradually 70  him that it’s all right to make mistakes — as long as you erase them and try again.

　　It has been difficult to sit on the bench most of the time, watching my team from the sideline. I always wonder why I am not good enough to be on the floor. After endless hours of work and devotion,

　　1

　　myself through drill after drill, the last thing I want is to be a cheerleader. The feeling of being

　　2

　　is sometimes too much and drives me to

　　3

　　on the spot. I often feel as though my

　　4

　　are wasted and my time is eaten away, devoted to nothing. It is heartbreaking to be a spectator for the game I love, knowing that no one has enough faith to give me the chance to

　　5

　　on the floor. Tears well up, but I

　　them back. I shouldn’t be so

　　7

　　over something so silly.

　　Away from the game, It’s easier to put my thoughts together, rather than letting my

　　8

　　drive my reasoning. I consider why I am where I am. I have played basketball my whole life. I have a strong

　　9

　　for the sport and always have. There is nothing like the

　　10

　　of playing: the swish of net, the sweat rolling off my cheeks, even the bruises are battle wounds worn

　　11

　　after every game.

　　Even if I don’t play much, I participate in every game. I am part of a team of girls who

　　12

　　together like a family. I am there for them, as they are for me.

　　Should I move on? Or should I stay with my team and continue playing basketball with great passion just a little longer? The

　　13

　　isn’t difficult when I consider the joy that being part of a team

　　14

　　me-not just any team, but my team. I love basketball and my teammates. When I think about that, my

　　15

　　from the bench really isn’t so bad after all.
