阅读理解     On my first day of teaching,I found that I spent 85 per cent of my energy disciplining and 15 per cent
teaching knowledge.Of course I had some wonderful,serious students who would do well wherever they
were in life,but others worked hard to push themselves to the limit (限度).At night I went home
exhausted,often near tears.What gave me the idea I wanted to teach?
      And then there was Matthew.
     After school Matthew would come into my classroom to dust erasers or empty the wastepaper basket.
     "Why do you come in to visit me?" I asked him one night.
     "Because at home no one listens to me," was his reply.Later I found out that there were eleven children in his family,with Matthew near the middle.
     One time when he came to see me,he said,"Miss Ausmus,the kids are saying that you and Mr D.like each other."
     "Matthew,Mr D.is a nice man and we both teach some of the same students.He is not my boyfriend,
and it"s not something the children should be talking about anyway."
     Another time,he said,"Will you wait for me so I can marry you when I grow up?"
     "Sorry,Matthew,but that won"t work," I answered in a gentle way.
     When my birthday arrived,his mother made me a cake.She delivered (递送) it after school,and as
Matthew was carrying it up the school steps,he tripped (绊倒),dropping the cake.I found him in tears.I
told him that bringing me a cake was very,very special,whether I was able to eat it or not.
     After my second year of teaching,I said "goodbye" to Matthew and his family.
     Years passed and in 1992,I went back to the little town to visit.Matthew"s parents still lived in the same house.His mother greeted me warmly."Janet,"she said,"Thanks for all the time you spent encouraging
Matthew.You taught him to believe in himself.You are the reason he went to college."
     I had made a difference in the life of a young boy.But I wonder...did Matthew ever know the difference he made in mine?

     My mother loves flowers.As soon as warm weather comes around,you will find her planting,
watering and weeding over everything.For many years we lived next door to each other,and she
spent as much time in my garden as she did her own.After the flowers became plentiful each  
summer,she would cut colorful bouquets (花束) to enjoy inside the house-both hers and mine.I
would often come  home from work and find a beautiful arrangement (布置) of  fresh flowers on
my coffee table.
     Shortly before Christmas one year,a local flower shop  offered a bouquetamonth special.It
seemed to be a great  way to thank her for all of the flowers she had given me  through the years.
     After the holidays,in early January,I drove her to the  flower shop to pick up her first month"s
bouquet.The small  fresh colorful bouquet would hardly fill a small vase (花瓶).
     I was so embarrassed (尴尬的). However,after we returned home,she began to arrange the
flowers she had received."Mom,I"m sorry," I told her."I can"t believe how skimpy that bouquet is."
She looked at me and smiled."It"s okay," she said."It allows me to better enjoy the beauty of each
one."
     Mom"s words helped me to realize something bigger and more important-when we have too many
good things,we often fail to enjoy the beauty of each one.
