The situation seemed hopeless.
From the first day he entered my junior-high classroom, Willard P. Franklin lived in his own , shutting out his classmates and me, his teacher. I tried to build a relationship with him but he showed no interest. Even a “Good Morning Willar” received only a grunt(咕哝) that couldn’t be . Willard was a loner(孤独的人) who seemed to have no hope or need to break silence. Shortly after the Thanksgiving holiday, we received the news of the annual(每年的) Christmas collection of money for the less people in our school district.
“Christmas is a season of ,” I told my students. “There are a few students in the school who might not have a happy holiday season. donating our Christmas collection, you will help buy food, clothing and toys for these needy people. We start the collection tomorrow.” When I called for the donations the next day, I discovered that everyone had forgotten, except Willard P. Franklin. The boy dug deep into his pants pockets he walked up to my desk. Carefully, he two coins into the small box.
“I don’t need milk for lunch,” he said . For a moment, just a moment, he smiled . Then he turned and walked back to his desk.
That night, after school, I took our to the school principal. I couldn’t sharing the incident(事件) that had taken place.
“I may be wrong, but I believe Willard might be getting ready to become a part of the world around him,” I told the principal.
“Yes, I believe it is for him to get out of his own world,” he nodded. “And I think we can do something to have him a bit of his world with us. I just received a of the poor families in our school who most need help through the Christmas collection. Here, take a look at it.”

Dear Dad,
I am writing this letter to you because it’s too difficult to talk about it. I can’t stop about my uncle and how he died. In fact, I seriously want to ask you to stop smoking. I’ve looked up information about smoking and I’ve found out some disturbing(令人不安的) things.
You already know that smoking is bad for your breathing and can cause cancer. I’ve found out it causes many other illnesses as well. Did you know that over 100,000 people die from smoking every year in Britain? It’s the second cause of death in the world. I don’t want you to be one of these people.
When Mum you to smoke outside, you think she’s just being difficult. Well, it’s true that she doesn’t like the smell of smoke in the house and on our clothes. It’s not very pleasant. However, when you smoke, it’s also bad for me and Mum. In other words, when we breathe in your smoke, it’s like we are smoke . As a result, we can get diseases as well. Doctors are finding that more and more non-smokers are falling ill because of the effects of other people’s smoking.
I know that it is very difficult to stop smoking you mustn’t give in(屈服) to it. Please see the doctor and ask him for help. We will do anything we can you. You must try to save your own . You are important to us and we don’t want to lose you. Who else can I ask to help me my maths homework or fix my bike? Please don’t smoke!
Your loving daughter,
Kate
