doorbell rang. I opened the front door and saw two small children in rags huddling together on the
top step.
"Any old papers, lady?" asked one of them.
I was busy. I wanted to say "no" until I looked down at their feet. They were wearing thin little
sandals(凉鞋), wet with heavy snow.
"Come in and I"ll make you a cup of hot cocoa."
They walked over and sat down at the table. Their wet sandals left marks upon the floor. I served
them cocoa and bread to fight against the cold outside. Then I went back to the kitchen and started
cooking.
The silence in the front room struck me. I looked in. The girl held the empty cup in her hands,
looking at it. The boy asked in a flat voice, "Lady, are you rich?"
"Am I rich? Pity, no!"
I looked at my wornout slipcovers(椅套). The girl put her cup back in its saucer(茶碟)carefully
and said, "Your cups match your saucers." They left after that, holding their papers against the wind.
They had reminded me that I had so much for which to be grateful.
Plain blue china cups and saucers were only worth five pence. But they matched.
I tasted the potatoes and stirred(搅动)the meat soup. Potatoes and brown meat soup, a roof over
our heads, my man with a regular job, these matched, too.
I moved the chairs back from the fire and cleaned the living room. The muddy marks of little
sandals were still wet upon my floor. Let them be for a while, I thought, just in case I should begin to
forget how rich I am.

Walking over to the offender, I asked for the_1_.Frozen, she refused to give it to me.I waited, all
attention in the classroom on the quiet 2 between teacher and student.When she finally 3 it over

I knew the two most likely candidates for drawing the picture.It would do them some 7 to teach them
a lesson, and maybe it was high time that I did it!
Thankfully, I was able to keep myself 8 .
When there were about six minutes remaining, I showed the class the picture.They were all silent as I
told them how 9 this was for me.I told them there must be a reason 10 and now was their chance to
write down anything they needed to tell me.Then I let them write silently while I sniffed in the back of the
classroom.
As I 11 the notes later, many of them said something like, "I"ve got nothing against you," or "I"m
sorry you were hurt." Some kids said, "We"re 12 of you." But two notes, from the girls who I 13
were behind the picture, had a list of issues.I was too 14 , too strict…
Reading those notes, I realized that over the course of this year, instead of 15 my students, I had
begun commanding them to 16 .Where I thought I was driving them to success I was 17 driving them
away.
I had some apologizing to do.But the next day in the classroom, one boy and one girl each handed me
a card.The one 18 by all the boys expressed sincere regret for the ugly joke.The one from the girls
asked for 19 .
This was a lesson for both the kids and me.Forgiveness does not change the past, but it does enlarge
the 20 .
