Li Fang decided to go to college in California.When she arrived,however,it was not the dream world she had imagined."People were struggling with problems and often seemed unhappy and too busy,"she said."(2) "One of her most difficult classes was P.E.When the class played volleyball,the other students were good at it.but she wasn't.One afternoon,the P.E.teacher had Li Fang hit the ball to her teammates so that they could knock it over the net.It was not a big deal for most people,but it made Li Fang scared.(3) A young man on her team seemed to understand what she was going through.He walked upto her and whispered(小声说),"(4) "Li Fang said,e'You will never understand how those words of encouragement made me feel.

Six years has passed.Li Fang is back in China,working as a salesclerk."I have never forgotten the words.(5) "She said,"I am sure the young man had no idea how much his kindness meant to me.He probably doesn't even remember it.From this experience,I have learned a lesson.Whenever you say something to a person﹣cruel or kind﹣you have no idea how long the words will stay with them."She is back in China.But still she hears those four simple words:You can do that.
