I did very badly at school. My headmaster thought I was and when I was 14 he said, “You’re never going to be but a failure.”
After five years of jobs, I fell in love with a very nice middle-class girl. It was the best thing that could have happened to me. I I wanted to do something positive with my life because I wanted to prove to her that what people said about me was . Especially her mother, who had said to me, “Let’s it, you’ve failed at everything you’ve ever done.” So I tried hard with my and went to college. My first novel _ while I was at college.
After college I taught during the __ in high schools and attended evening classes at London University, where I got a degree in history. I became a lecturer at a college and was thinking of that job to write full time I was offered a part-time job at Leeds University. I began to feel proud of myself —here was a working--class boy who’d school early, now teaching at the university.
My writing career took off when I discovered my own style. Now I’m rich and , have been on TV, and met lots of film stars. what does it mean? I just wish all the people that have put me down had : “I believe in you. You’ll succeed.”

I used to be a very self-centered（自我中心的） person, but in the past two years I have really changed. I have started to think about other people I think about myself. I am happy that I am becoming a different person.
I think my started when I was at Palomar College. At first, I just wanted to get my degree（学位）and be left alone. I thought I was smarter than everyone else, so I talked to anyone in my classes. By the end of my first semester, I was really . It seemed as if everyone had made friends and was having fun, except me. So I had a（n） . I started asking people around me how they were doing, and if they were having trouble, I would to help. That was really a big step for me. By the end of the year, I had several new friends, and two of are still my best friends today.
A bigger cause of my new , however, came when I took a part-time job at a Vista Nursing Home. One old lady there who was badly ill became my . Every time I came into her room, she was so because she thought I was her daughter. Her real daughter never her, so I took her place. She let me that making others feel good make me feel good, too.

Do you remember the name of your kindergarten(幼儿园) teacher? I do. Her name was Mrs White.
I don’t remember much about we learned in her class, but my mother once told me that we write a lot. And I would bring back what I wrote and she could see there were so many mistakes. no red corrections. And always a star. Sometimes even a Good! It worried my mother, so one day she went to Mrs White and asked her why she corrected my mistakes.
And my mother says Mrs White said “The children are just to get excited about using words, about forming sentences. I don’t want to lose the interests with red ink(墨水). and grammar can wait. The wonder of won’t... ”.Maybe she didn’t say it exactly like that at that moment. And what my mother gave me was the main idea of what she could remember.
I now and think Mrs White must have been a rather teacher. She encouraged joy, wonder and excitement — even if our expression of it was . Because she believed a bud(花蕾)once nipped(掐断) never opens.
I used to misspell “beautiful” a lot. Never could quite remember that the e went the a. It annoyed my teacher in high school very much. If I was going to use the word so often, she considered the I could do was spell it right. Finally the e’s and a’s were in their right places. Am glad I didn’t wait on them though. Pretty is to spell but it doesn’t hold as much as you mean sometimes.
And Mrs White I had no worries about writing what I meant. Because Life isn’t Pretty. It’s Baeutiful.
