When an egg breaks from outside, a life ends. When an Egg breaks from inside, a life begins.
All life’s circumstances can be seen in an egg where in the soft yolk (蛋黄) inside is our _____ and the hard shell outside is the barrier. When the barrier breaks from outside, our desire is crushed, but when it breaks from inside, we __ a new skill, a new habit and a new life.
I was 22 years old. I did not where the kitchen was in my house, since I had __ gone into the kitchen before. All of a sudden, I had to move to America to pursue my master’s degree. That is when it _____ me that I had to learn to cook a proper meal in order to _____ . My desire to cook began to _____ , and the yolk began to stir.
The first time I made_____ , it came out like white glue. Within a month of experimenting with different recipes, I ______ the art of making Chinese fried rice and north Indian curry. This breaking of the eggshell from _ gave me yet another skill for life, ____ . Now that I look back, maybe my wife agreed to marry me for this ____ alone.
It is easy to break an egg from outside, but it is __ to break it from inside. What is even more difficult is to ____ you from outside and break the egg from inside. That is where the role of a teacher, a mentor or a coach comes in.
As a father, I took it as my responsibility to __ my son cycling and swimming. In this case, the yolk was the untapped potential of my son and the barrier was his fear of losing _ . It took months of patience and coaching to help him _ his fear. It was an uphill task to keep him motivated through failures. _ , I was glad and relieved when he learned both these essential skills.
The important lesson here is that the egg will be __ no matter what. Success, when the egg breaks from inside, is more about what you overcome than what you achieve.
Life always throws up _ . I urge you all learn the instrument that you always wanted to play but have not played so far. As the saying goes, there is never a lock without a key, never a problem without a solution. Persist, believe in yourself and allow your yolk to break through to a new soul, a new you.

That morning, I stepped into the classroom, ready to share my knowledge and experience with seventy-five students who would be my English Literature class. Having taught in for seventeen years, I had no about my ability to hold their attention and to on them my admiration for the literature of my mother tongue.
I was shocked when the monitor shouted, " !" The entire class rose as I entered the room, and I was somewhat about how to get them to sit down again, but once that awkwardness was over, I quickly my calmness and began what I thought was a fact-packed lecture, sure to gain their respect—perhaps their admiration. I went back to my office with the rosy glow which came from a sense of achievement.
My students diaries. However, as I read them, the rosy glow was gradually 49 by a strong sense of sadness. The first diary said, "Our literature teacher didn’t teach us anything today. her next lecture will be better." Greatly surprised, I read diary after diary, each expressing a theme. "Didn’t I teach them anything? I described the entire philosophical framework of Western thought and laid the historical for all the works we’ll study in class," I complained." How they say I didn’t teach them anything?"
It was a long term, and it became clear that my ideas about education were not the same as of my students. I thought a teacher’s job was to raise questions and provide enough background so that students could their own conclusions. My students thought a teacher’s job was to provide information as directly and clearly as possible. What a difference!

On the day of the talent show, Suzy’s were everywhere ---- all over the hall and all over the school, each one different.

I could hear everyone whispering. “Who in our school could draw well?”
Mr. Brown waited a while before saying, “ this student worked so hard on the posters, she deserves a ,too. Our mystery(神秘) artist is our new student ---- Suzy Khan!”
Mr. Brown thanked her for all the wonderful posters and gave her a professional artist’s set. “Thank you,” she cried.
