When I was fifteen, I announced to my English class that I was going to write my own books. Half the students smiled unkindly, 36 nearly fell out of their chairs laughing. “Don’t be 37 , only geniuses can become writers,” the English teacher said, “And you are getting a D this term.” I was so ashamed I burst into 38 . That night I wrote a short sad poem about broken dreams and mailed it to the newspaper. To my 39 , they published it and sent me two dollars. I was a published and paid writer. I showed my teacher and fellow students. They laughed, “Just plain dumb luck,” the teacher said. I 40 success. I’d sold the first thing I’d 41 written. That was more than any of them had done and if it was just dumb luck that was fine with me.
During the next two years I sold dozens of poems and letters. By the time I graduated from high school, I had scrapbooks (剪贴簿) 42 my published works. I never 43 my writing to my teachers, friends or my family 44 because they were dream killers.
I had four children at the time. 45 the children slept, I typed on my ancient typewriter. I wrote what I felt. It took nine months. I chose a 46 and mailed it. A month later I received a contract, an advance on payments, and a request to start 47 another book. Crying Wind, became a best seller, was translated into fifteen languages and sold worldwide. My first book also became 48 reading in native American schools in Canada.
The 49 year I ever had as a writer I earned two dollars. In my best year I earned 36,000 dollars. People ask what college I 50 , what degrees I had and what qualifications I have to be a writer. The answer is: “None.” I just write. I’m not a genius. I use an electric typewriter that I paid a hundred and twenty nine dollars 51 six years ago. I do all the housework and 52 my writing in a few minutes here and there. I’ve written eight books. To all those who dream of writing, I’m shouting at you: “Yes, you can. Don’t listen to them.” I don’t write right 53 I’ve succeeded. Writing is 54 , it’s fun and anyone can do it. 55 , a little dumb luck doesn’t hurt.

I believe in miracles because I’ve seen so many of them.One day,a patient was referred to me who was one hundred and two years old.“There’s a 36 in my upper jaw,”she said.“I told my own dentist it’s nothing,but he 37 I come to see you.”
Her eighty-year-old son accompanied her.He would 38 to add something,but she stopped him.She wanted to tell everything hereslf.I found a large cancer that spread over much of the 39 of her mouth.A careful examination later 40 that it was a particularly bad sort of cancer.
During her next appointment,I explained to her the 41 of the problem.She clasped my hand in hers and said,“I know you’re worried about me,but I’m just 42 .”
I thought otherwise.After considerable 43 on my part,and kindness on her part because she wanted to 44 me,she agreed to have me refer her to a cancer surgeon.She saw him,but as I expected, 45 treatment.
About six months later she retarned to my office,still energetic and 46 .
“How are you?”I asked.
“I’m just fine,honey,”she responded 47 high spirits.“When can I get started on fixing my dentures(假牙)?”
Surprised to see her at all,I answered 48 ,“Let me take a look in your mouth and we’ll see about it.”
I couldn’t believe my eyes.The cancer that had 49 nearly the entire roof of her mouth was gone—only one small area of redness 50 .
I had read of such things happening,but had 51 seen them with my own eyes.That was my first miracle.Since then I’ve seen many others,because they keep getting 52 to see.In fact,miracles are daily events for me now.And people are a miracle, 53 through them we have a chance to know ourselves and to 54 the miracles of one another.
Since my first miracle,I’ve come to understand that the time and place for a miracle is 55 we choose to find it.

Fifteen years spent in the field of education has provided me with many treasured moments. One of the most unforgettable 26 when I was teaching second 27 10 years ago.
In May I decided to plan something special for the children：a Mother’s Day tea. We had put our heads together to 28 ideas of how to 29 our mothers. We practiced singing songs, memorized poems and wrote cards. We decided to hold our tea the Friday before Mother’s Day. I was surprised but 30 to learn that every mother was planning to attend. I 31 invited my own mother.
Finally, the big day arrived. Each child 32 up at our classroom door, expecting the arrival of his or her mom. 33 it got closer to starting time, I looked around and my eyes quickly found Jimmy. His mother hadn’t shown up and he was looking 34
I took my mother by the hand and walked over to Jimmy. “Jimmy,” I said, “I have a bit of problem here and I was 35 if you could keep my mother 36 while I’m busy.”
My mom and Jimmy sat at a table. Jimmy 37 my mom her treats, presented her with the gift I had made, just as we had 38 the day before. Whenever I looked over, my mother and Jimmy were in deep 39 .
Now 10 years later, I work with students of all ages, educating them about the environment. Last year, I took a senior class on a field trip, and there was Jimmy. I had the students complete an outline of the day’s 40 and an evaluation of our trip. Then I collected the students’ booklets and checked them to see if 41 was completed. When I came 42 Jimmy’s page, he had written “Remember our Mother’s Day tea we had in second grade, Mrs. Marra? I do! Thanks for all you did for me, and thank your mother, too.”
I told him I really enjoyed what he had written. He looked rather embarrassed and 43 his own thanks and walked away. Suddenly he ran back and gave me a big hug. “Thanks again. No one even knew my mother didn’t 44 it.”
I ended my workday with a hug from a teenage boy who had 45 stopped hugging teachers years ago.

We should show respect to everybody, especially our elders because they are ahead of us — in age, in wisdom and maturity, in experience and education. Our 51 have done a lot for us, directly or indirectly and most of us 52 everything to their kindness and love.
When we 53 them respect, whether it is by bowing to them, or 54 them with a smile, or offering them any help they need, it is one way of 55 our own love and gratitude to them. 56 , elders have also been through all the years you are 57 and know a little more about the world than you do.
It is 58 that you do not agree with the belief of your elders, but this is nothing new. All younger generations have always 59 with their elders and it is these differences that bring changes in human 60 . However much you disagree with them, give them credit for their 61 .
With changing times and 62 influences, youngsters no longer know what is interpreted as disrespect to elders. Youngsters should 63 express their views and if there are arguments, they should not 64 their voices.
