Childish Voice
When I was a young child, my parents often told me that it was time to teach a man everything. I didn’t understand and wondered why 36 had such a big influence 37 a person. I thought I could grow up quickly to find it out as an adult．But now, 38 I come to knock at the door of adulthood, I feel 39 to express my own 40 on this saying. I know that I’m just a high school student with very 41 experiences. There are still many things 42 me in the future, yet I would like to express myself in a childish voice.
I once read this sentence: “To make this world a happy place to live, you’d better 43 youreself and your heart , instead of the whole world.” I was shocked. It made me think about life 44 . There are so many things around us that 45 our will. We can’t force life 46 our wishes.The earth won’t stop turning no matter whether we 47 it or not. What we can do is just to make ourselves 48 the world. I think we should learn to accept 49 life gives us, no matter whether it’s the spring sunlight or the winter snowfall, and try to be happy.
Deeply moved by the pop song Grandmother (by Jay Chou), I always try to 50 every pleasant thing in my life, but now I see I don’t catch most of the pleasant moments. It is more 51 that they slip by and leave you feeling 52 . I realize that I’m not just living 53 myself and that there are the others around me I should think of .They all pay attention to my growing up, even if it’s just a little progress.
Everyone has his or her own attitude towards life, be it positive or 54 . It doesn’t matter, I think. There is one 55 that should be obeyed—and that’s to make this world better.

Twenty-five years later another group of graduate students was 37 the job of testing the 38 . They went back to the same area. Some of the boys— 39 men—were still there，a few had died，some had moved away， 40 they got in touch with 180 of the 41 200. They found that only four of the group had ever been sent to prison.
42 was it that these men，who had lived in a breeding place of crime，had such a 43 good record？ The researchers were continually told，“Well，there was a teacher…”
They pressed 44 ，and found that in 75 percent of the 45 it was the same woman. The researchers went to this teacher，now living in a home for retired 46 . How had she had this remarkable influence 47 that group of children？ Could she give them any reason why these boys 48 have remembered her？

Just how popular was Mini? Very. Every year, her classmates voted her 31 the favourite student. She was so easy to 32 along with that the number of friends she had by far outnumbered (压倒)those of anyone else in her group.
One day the 10-year-old was 33 talking in the class and ordered to stay back as 34 . Staying back 35 doing something “useful”, like helping in the garden or library after school.
Now the school in which Mini 36 had a rule of sorts. Once a month, you could interchange your punishment schedule with someone else. If you 37 something else to do the day you were punished, you could 38 a friend to stand in for you. Of course, you had to return the favour, but in that same month itself. Otherwise the favour cancelled itself out. So the students who stayed back for others and wanted the favour repaid, found ways to be punished that very month. 39 it happened, on that day a very dear aunt was visiting Mini on her way back to America. That afternoon was the only 40 Mini had of seeing her for another five years. Mini needed someone to stand in for her. That was a problem though it was the last day of the month. So anyone who helped her, would do so out of friendship's sake alone. She sought out Preeti, her “best'”friend. "Oh no Mini, I can't," Preeti said. "I have to coach my brother for his nursery entrance test. The kid just can't seem to get into any decent （体面的）school." And she spent a good 41 of time telling Mini of her brother's problems.
"Mohit, 42 you stay back for me?" Mini asked another friend who was dribbling a ball（运球） in the playground. She knew he often just hung around after school. "To help the librarian? I 43 you'd told me earlier. I have to go to a relative's house with my father. Some other day perhaps," and 44 that Mohit fled.
By now, Mini was beginning to 45 if even one of her friends would 46 to stay. But she tried again. Three 47 friends and each one refused. Of course, no one said "no" outright. Mini was a great pal, after all. But each had a “reason”why they couldn't take her place that afternoon, and if only it were some other day...
So, after school Mini stayed back to help the 48 , Ms Mathur. And, when the remote Ms Mathur found her crying after everyone had left, it was she 49 surprised Mini by allowing her to leave to meet her aunt. "Some popularity I have," Mini murmured（嘟囔） to herself, as she went home. "I may have many friends, but in reality I have 50 ."
