The mountain was high and it was cold． Everything （1） （cover） by snow and ice and it was dangerous． I shook in my tent as the storm tried（2） （knock） me back to the bottom． "You will never make it to the top，" everyone said，"no woman has ever climbed this mountain and only a few people have done it by themselves．" I was so confident（3） I would be the first woman to climb up to the top of Whitmore． I had prepared for several （4） （month）．
The wind had gotten much （5） （quiet） when I woke up the next morning． I climbed（6） of my tent and looked out at the mountain． Everything was white and still． "I will make it to the top today，" I thought to（7） （I）．
I started up the slope． My feet crunched the snow with every step I took． It was a beautiful day． I was climbing quickly． Soon I was going to reach the top．All of （8） sudden， I slipped （滑倒）．I moved down the mountain． I was going slowly at first but then I started to slide very fast． I started to turn around and around quickly． After what felt （9） forever， I came to a stop． I had slid all the way to the bottom． I was alive． I couldn't believe it．
Three days later， I（10） （make） it to the top． It was a beautiful day and I had a perfect view of everything around me．

As a child，I got angry quite easily and was not good at communicating with others．
I still remember it was an early autumn．Some （71） started to turn yellow and weather became cool．One day，as I was getting ready for school，my mother carelessly handed me my father's vest（背心）instead of（72） ．At that time，I was getting to have a （73） size than my father，so when I put on the vest，I felt as if I wasn't able to breathe! I realized that it was a small mistake which （74） by my mother，but somehow the breathless feeling was so strong that it made me very angry．My mother said sorry with a smile，but I shouted at her （75） thinking much，I got it off my body so wildly that I made a hole in it．I put on my own vest and rushed out of the house （76） my mother could stop me．
Later，my mother shared her bad feelings with my father，"See what your son has done．"Instead of scold（责备）or beat me，my father （77） asked my mother to mend the vest．
Later when my mother told me about my father's response，I felt ashamed（惭愧的）of my bad behavior．My father's gentle kindness （78） me a lesson which I would never forget．
On that day，I decided not to let anger（79） me any longer．Of course，there are times when I am angry．However，whenever that happens，I （80） to remember my father's vest．It always reminds me to think about others' feelings when I get angry．
The world needs love and many people need our help．Several years ago，my teachers asked me to take part in a program that helps those who are （31） ．Each week，I spend an hour in the classroom helping with schoolwork，art project，games and other （32） ，including eating．My mother is a teacher，so I am used to helping children； however，I found that working with children with special needs would（33） my life forever．
At first，I thought it would be（34） to be with the children who are so different，but gradually I found there's something special about these students．So there was no need to worry about it．Each Thursday I was welcomed by the smiling faces of Thomas，Joey and Missy．Thomas has to sit on the wheelchair．He communicates with simple words （35） yes or no．Joey，a deaf girl，always welcomed me with a big smile．Missy was born with a kind of （36） and it makes her really small for her age．In a normal classroom，it would be common to hear a teacher comfort a child who is tapping his pencil，speaking （37） ，or making unnecessary noises．However，here，shouts，cries，and other noises are （38） ．They're signs of excitement and different ways of communicating．
Working with children with special needs has changed my life．It has made me（39） others' needs．One of my teachers believes that we should be part of something bigger than （40） ．I never realized how true this was until I worked with these children．I believe everyone should get out and do something that makes a difference．
