I was small for my age. I was shy and sometimes it was hard for me to make friends with the others. However, learning came fairly easy for me. I was the best in most of my classes, but PE class was my nightmare (恶梦) and made me feel that I was not as good as the others.
Miss Forsythe was our PE teacher. She was young and energetic. Everyone liked her. She said that we all had to come to her classes. No one could hide from Miss Forsythe! One day she told me that she wanted me to play a game with another girl in a PE show. I was rather worried that I wouldn’t do a good job when she explained her idea, but she was excited. With her encouragement, I had no choice but to agree. It was a "boy meets girl" game. I played the boy and my classmate, Margaret Ann, played the girl. We were dressed in evening clothes and danced around the floor. According to Miss Forsythe, I had to pick up Margaret Ann when we finished the dance. Since I was not strong enough to pick the tallest girl up, it was she who picked me up. I suddenly felt ten feet tall! It was a huge success and everybody applauded (鼓掌) for our excellent performance. What a wonderful ending! Afterwards, I smiled confidently (自信地).
Miss Forsythe’s understanding and willingness to create a place for me in her show (which certainly did not need me) gave me some much needed confidence. She was and always will be my favorite teacher.

We are warned by our teachers not to waste time because time 26 will never return. I think it quite 27. What does time look 28 ? Nobody knows, and we can’t see it or touch it and no 29 of money can buy it. Time is abstract(抽象的), so we have to 30 about it.
Time passes very quickly. Some students say they don’t have 31 time to review their lessons. It is 32 they don’t know how to make use of their time. They waste it in going to theatres or playing, and 33 other useless things. Why do we study everyday? Why do we work? Why do most people 34 take buses instead of walking? The answer is very 35 .We wish to save time because time is36.
Today we are living in the 21st century. We 37 time as life. When a person dies, his life ends. Since life is short, we must 38 our time and energy to our study so that we 39 be able to work and live well in the future. Laziness is the 40 of time, for it not only brings us 41 , but also does other 42 to us. If it is necessary for us to do our work today, 43 we do it today and not 44 it until tomorrow. Remember that time is much more 45.
