Question

My job was to make classroom observations and encourage a training program that would enable students to feel good about themselves and take charge of their lives. Donna was one of the volunteer teachers who participated in this1.
One day, I entered Donna’s classroom, took a seat in the back of the room and2.All the students were working on a task. The student next to me was filling her page with “I Can’ts.” “I can’t kick the soccer ball.” “I can’t get Debbie to like me.” Her page was half full and she showed no3of stopping. I walked down the row and found4was writing sentences, describing things they couldn’t do.
By this time the activity aroused my5, so I decided to check with the teacher to see what was going on,6I noticed she too was busy writing “I can’t get John’s mother to come for a parents’ meeting.” …I felt it best not to interrupt.
After another ten minutes, the students were instructed to fold the papers in half and bring them to the front. They placed their “I Can’t” statements into an empty shoe box. Then Donna7hers. She put the lid on the box, tucked it under her arm and headed out the door.
Students followed the teacher. I followed the students. Halfway down the hallway Donna got a shovel(铲子) from the tool house, and then marched the students to the farthest corner of the playground. There they began to8. The box of “I Can’ts” was placed at the9of the hole and then quickly covered with dirt. At this point Donna announced, “Boys and girls, please join hands and10your heads.” They quickly formed a circle around the grave.
Donna delivered the eulogy(悼词).“Friends, we gathered here today to honor the memory of ‘I Can’t.’ He is11by his brothers and sisters ‘I Can’ and ‘I Will’. May ‘I Can’t’ rest in12. Amen!”
She turned the students13and marched them back into the classroom. They celebrated the14of “I Can’t”. Donna cut a large tombstone from paper. She wrote the words “I Can’t ”at the top and the date at the bottom, then hung it in the classroom. On those rare occasions when a student forgot and said, “I Can’t,” Donna15pointed to the paper tombstone. The student then remembered that “I Can’t” was dead and chose other statement.
