When I entered the classroom, our teacher announced we were going to have a math test. I took a look at the full of what looked like hieroglyphs(象形文字) to me and began to . I did the best that I could, and then left my to put my paper in a pile(摞) on the front desk with a(n) .
I returned to my seat and then an idea came to my mind. I where the teacher was before I made my . She was walking in the of the room with her back turned. I left my seat and went back to the pile of test papers already handed and when I picked up my paper I also the paper right below it before returning to my seat. When I looked at the paper I had taken, I discovered it was the work of the girl in our class. I copied her answers to my paper.
The next day the teacher handed back our papers turning them facedown on everyone’s desks. When I my paper over, I was to see an “F” on it. After class I went to the girl whose answers I had and said to her, “That math test was difficult. I it. I guess we need to study more.” Her was, “Not me, I got every question and got an A.”
The teacher knew. She never blamed me in front of the class and me to keep my dignity(尊严). I made a to myself never ever to cheat again. I would remember to always be in the things I do. I never forgot that teacher who failed me when, really, I had failed myself.

Barefoot and dirty，the girl just sat and watched the people go by．She never tried to speak．Many people passed，but never did one person stop．
The next day I decided to go back to the park，curious to see if the little girl would still be there．Right in the very spot as she was yesterday，she sat with the saddest look in her eyes．
Today I was to make my own move and walk over to the little girl．As we all know，a park full of strange people is not a place for young children to play alone．
As I began walking towards her，I could see the back of the little girl’s dress indicated a deformity（畸形）．I smiled to let her know it was okay，I was there to help，to talk．I sat down beside her and opened with a simple “Hello”．I smiled and she shyly smiled back．We talked until darkness fell and the park was completely empty．I asked the girl why she was so sad．The little girl looked at me and with a sad face said，“Because I’m different．”
I immediately said “That you are!” and smiled．The little girl acted even sadder．She said，“I know．” She looked at me and smiled．Slowly she stood to her feet，and said，“Really?”
“Yes，dear，you’re like a little guardian angel sent to watch over all those people walking by．” She nodded her head “yes” and smiled，and with that she spread her wings and said with a twinkle in her eye，“I am．I’m your guardian angel．”
I was speechless，sure I was seeing things．She said，“For once you thought of someone other than yourself，my job here is done．”
Immediately I stood to my feet and said，“Wait，so why did no one stop to help an angel!?” She looked at me and smiled，“You’re the only one who could see me，and you believe it in your heart．”…and she was gone．
And with that my life changed dramatically．So，when you think you’re all you have，remember，your angel is always watching over you．Mine is!

One day，some of the girls in our neighborhood started acting a bit strangely towards me．They talking to me．After a day or so of this，I finally what was going on．I'd said something to a（n） girl the night before that she didn't like．I'd had a few that night, and like everyone I sometimes say things that severer than I mean them to．
Anyway，it seemed that the girl had told many of her friends，and now they were all at me．They found a great to think of all the other supposed“crimes”I'd committed over the past year． they'd all really liked me before, suddenly they I was a really bad guy．
This was a difficult problem．I to get along well with these people and I liked them all．I didn't want them to me because of something stupid I'd said when I was drunk．It didn't much whether they or I was wrong．All I wanted was things to be to normal again．
So I wrote the popular girl a note saying：“I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings．I didn't mean to”．And that was it．The problem was solved． ．the girls who were angry with me now liked me than ever．They felt I'd done something in admitting I was wrong and apologizing．
Learn how and when to ．Often，the pride and stubbornness you hold onto by refusing to back down isn't worth the of a lasting argument．An apology can for healing a difficult situation．And often, people will think better of you for it．
