Each of us fails from time to time. If we are wise, we accept these failures as a 36 part of
the learning process. But all too often as parents and teachers we disallow this 37 right to our
children.
When I see a child 38 to this kind of pressure, I think of Donnie.
Donnie was my youn
gest third grader. His 
39 of failure kept him from classroom games
that other children enjoyed. He 40 answered questions—he might be wrong.
I tried my best to build his 41 .But nothing changed until midterm , when Mary Anne , a student teacher , was assigned（安排） to our classroom .
She was young and pretty , and she loved children . My pupils , Donnie included , all 42 her.
One morning , we were working on math problems at the chalkboard . Donnie had 43 the problems with pains-taking tid
iness . Pleased with his progress , I 44 the children with Mary Anne and went for art materials . When I returned , Donnie was in 45 . He’d missed the third problem .
My student teacher looked at me in despair . Suddenly her face 46 . From the desk we shared , she got a container filled with pencils .
“Look , Donnie,” she said, kneeling beside him and gently 47 the tear-stained face from his arms . “I’ve got something to 48 you.” She removed the pencils , one at a time , and placed them on his desk .
“See these 49 , Donnie,” she continued . “They belong to Mrs . Lindstrom and me . See how the erasers are 50 ? That’s because we make mistakes too . But we erase the mistakes and try again . That’s what you 51 learn to do , too.”
She kissed him and stood up . “Here”, she said , I’ll leave one of these pencils on 52 desk so you’ll remember that everybody makes mistakes, 53 teachers.” Donnie looked up with love in his eyes and a smile .
The pencil became Donnie’s 54 possession . That, together with Mary Anne’s frequent encouragement, gradually 55 him that it’s all right to make mistakes—as long as you erase them and try again .

I was on a bus one March evening. The driver didn’t to start the bus soon because it was not yet . A middle-aged woman got on. Tired and sad, she told her story , not to anyone in particular. On her way to the station, half of her was stolen. The other half was hidden under her blouse, so she still had some left. A few minutes later, she stopped crying, but still looked .
When all the seats were taken, the driver started the engine. The conductor began to collect fares(车费). When she came to an old man in worn-out clothes, he that he had spent all his money when he had accidentally got on a wrong bus and now he was trying to go home. On hearing this, she ordered the old man to the bus. The old man was almost in tears as he her to let him take the bus home. The driver took the conductor’s side and repeated the conductor’s .
The woman was watching the incident. the driver and the conductor raised their voices at the old man, she interfered(干预).
“Stop him! Can’t you see he’s only trying to get home?”
“He doesn’t have any money! ” the driver .
“Well, that’s no to throw him off the bus,” she insisted.
Then she reached inside her blouse, look out her money, and handed it to the conductor. “Here’s his fare and mine. Just stop giving him a time.”
All heads turned to the woman. “It’s only money,” she shrugged.
She rode the rest of the way home a happy smile, with the money she’d lost earlier .

Yesterday I was invited to attend a party that helps children badly injured in the big earthquake in May. I went because I .
At the party, all the children were given in bright, beautiful colors. After a short time, as I , I saw blue clouds, orange sunrises and purple flowers. The pictures were all bright.
The boy sitting next to me was painting a heart, but it was dark and lifeless. It didn’t have bright colors that his fellow had used.
I thought maybe he took the only paint that was left and it just happened to be dark. But when I asked him about it, he said his was that color. I asked him why and he told me that he was sick. He looked into my eyes and said, “There is nothing anyone can do that will help.”
I certainly understood why he was sad. I said, “It isn’t that there is nothing anyone can do to help. Other people may not be able to make you better but we can do things, like giving bear hugs, which will help when you are feeling sad.” I also told him that I’d be happy to give him one so that he could see what I meant. He immediately gave me a huge hug and I thought my own heart would be with love for this sweet boy.
As the day was coming to an end, I was getting ready to home. I turned around and found that standing there with a smile on his face was the little boy. He said, “My heart is colors. It is getting brighter. Those hugs really do .” On my way home I felt my own heart had changed to a brighter color, too.

As a child, there was nothing I liked better than Sunday afternoons at my grandfather’s farm. __by miles of winding stone walls, the house provided endless hours of for a city kid.
I can still remember one afternoon I was eight years old. I’d wanted more than anything to be to climb the walls surrounding the farm. The walls were old；some stones were _ , others loose. Still, my yearning（向往）to climb across those walls so strong that finally, one spring afternoon, I took all my and entered the living room, where the _ had gathered after Sunday dinner.
“I, I want to climb the stone walls,” I said. a chorus(异口同声) went up from the women in the room.“Heavens, no！” they cried,“You’ll hurt yourself！”I wasn’t too ；the was just as I’d expected. Just I could leave the room, I was stopped by my grandfather’s loud voice.“Now wait a minute.” I heard him say,“Let the boy climb the stone walls. He has to learn to do things .”
For the next two hours I climbed those old walls and had the time of my life. Later I told my grandfather about my .I’ll never forget what he said. “Fred,”he said, smiling, “you made this day a (an) day just by being yourself. Always remember, there’s only one person in this whole world like you, and I like you as you are.”
Many years have passed then, and today I’m a host in the television program “Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood”, seen by millions of children.
There have been over the years, but one thing_______ the same：my suggestion left to children at the end of almost every program. “There’s only one person in this whole world like you,” The kids can hear me say, “and people would like you exactly as you are.”
