By May, 2012, my family was already distressed. My mother had breast cancer. And then an ulcer (溃疡) appeared on my tongue. It grew and wouldn't go away. My doctor suggested a physical examination and it was early June when I collected the reports.
“Your doctor will discuss the report with you, sir,” the nurse told me.
“You can tell me,” I said. “I can deal with it. My mother has cancer.”
“It's cancer. ”
The result hit me, and I had to idea how my life and I were about to change.
I shared the news with my family. I couldn't help crying. I thought about what I needed to do for my family and the everyday things as well. What was going to happen to my newspaper column(栏目)？I e-mailed the concerned editor about my situation. I also sent her a few columns to run while I was in treatment.
Two days later I had an operation, and I recovered quickly, but Mummy passed away soon. Except for the regular check-ups, life returned to normal. But a few months on, my doctor found cancer in my neck!
“What are my chances of survival?” I asked.
“Pick any number between one and hundred, ”the doctor replied.
I had another operation. This time my doctor said I also needed radiation therapy(化疗), which is very hard on a patient with cancer. But I was again not going to allow cancer to disturb my job and life.
I have been cancer-free for over three years now. I've been working, writing and columns and appearing on my TV shows. If the disease returns, I will be unhappy. But having experienced so much and enjoyed every day, I know I am also better equipped to deal with cancer or anything else.

"Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.”
-Albert Einstein
If you have a kid with special needs in the school system, chances are you’ve come across that saying hanging on a classroom wall. My five-year-old daughter Syona has cerebral palsy (a medical condition affecting someone’s control over their movement ) and it means ,combined with her communication challenges and sight problems , that standard assessments (and by “standard”, I mean the ones used to assess kids with special needs ) aren’t always an accurate measure of her abilities.
By now you have probably heard about Chris Ulmer, the 26-year-old teacher in Jacksonville, Florida ,who starts his special education class by calling up each student individually to give them much admiration and a high-five (a gesture of greeting or congratulation ). I couldn’t help but be reminded of Syona’s teacher and how she supports each kid in a very similar way. Ulmer recently shared a video of his teaching experience. “I have seen their confidence and self-worth increase rapidly,” he said . All I could think was: How lucky these students are to have such inspirational teachers.
Syona’s teacher has an attitude that can best be summarized in one word: awesome. Her teacher doesn’t focus on what can’t be done—she focuses on what can be done. Over the past several months, my husband Dilip and I have seen Syona’s confidence increase tenfold. She uses words she wouldn’t have thought of using before. She recently told me about her classmate’s trip to Ecuador and was very proud when I understood her on the first try.
I actually wonder what the influence would be if we did something similar to what Ulmer does with his students in our home .We’ve recently started our day by reminding each other of the good qualities we all possess. If we are reminded of our strengths on a regular basis, we will become increasingly confident about progress and success.
Ulmer’s reach as a teacher goes far beyond the walls of his classroom. In fact, he teaches all of us to take a moment and truly appreciate the strengths of an important person in our lives.
1.What does the author think of Einstein’s quote?
A. Funny
B. Strange
C. True
D. Confusing
2.What can we learn about Chris Ulmer?
A. He is Syona’s favorite teacher.
B. He praises his students one by one
C. He use videos to teach his students
D. He asks his students to help each other
3.Syona felt very pleased because_____.
A. she has developed a cool attitude
B. her mother knew what she expressed
C. her progress was appreciated by her parents
D. she had been to Ecuador with her classmate
4.What change has taken place in the author’s family?
A. They give each other praise every day
B. They visit Ulmer’s classroom regularly
C. They feel grateful to people in their lives
D. They invite Ulmer’s students to their home
