　　“Sixteen,” I said．I have forgotten the math question my second-grade teacher, Joyce Cooper asked that day, but I will never forget my 　　1　　．As soon as the number left my mouth, the whole class started 　　2　　．I felt like the silliest person in the world．

　　Mrs Cooper fixed them with a firm(严格的)look．Then she said：“We're all here to 　　3　　．”

　　Another time, Mrs Cooper asked us to write a 　　4　　 about what we hoped to do with our lives．I wrote：“I want to be a 　　5　　 like Mrs Cooper．”

　　She wrote on my report, “You would make an outstanding(杰出的)teacher 　　6　　 you are determined(坚定的)and you try hard．” I was to carry those 　　7　　 in my heart for the next 27 years．

　　After I graduated from high school, I got married and had children．

　　We needed every penny just to get by．College-and teaching-was out of the question．

　　Then one day I thought of my 　　8　　 of how I wanted to help children．I talked it over with my family and 　　9　　 to attend college classes in the mornings before work．And when I got home from work, I would 　　10　　．Finally after seven years, my dream had been realized and I became a teacher．

　　Not long after I started 　　11　　, something happened that brought the 　　12　　 rushing back to me．I had written a sentence with grammatical(语法的)mistakes on the blackboard．Then I asked students to come and 　　13　　 the mistakes．

　　One girl got halfway through, became confused(迷乱的)and stopped．As the other children laughed, 　　14　　 rolled down her face．I gave her a hug and told her to get a drink of water．Then, remembering Mrs Cooper, I fixed 　　15　　 of the class with a firm look．“We're all here to learn,” I said．

　　I used to live selfishly, I should admit(承认)．But one moment changed me．

　　I was on my lunch break and had 　　1　　 the office to get something to eat．On the way, I saw a busker(街头艺人)，with a hat in front of him．I had some 　　2　　 in my pocket, but I would not give them to him, thinking to myself he would 　　3　　 use the money to feed his addiction(瘾)to drugs or alcohol．He 　　4　　 like that type-young and ragged(衣衫褴褛)．　　5　　 what was I going to spend the money on? Only to feed my addiction to Coca-Cola or chocolate! I then 　　6　　 I had no right to place myself above 　　7　　 just because he was busking．

　　I 　　8　　 and dropped all the coins into his 　　9　　, and he smiled at me, I watched for a while．As selfish as it sounds, I expected something more to come from that moment-a feeling of 　　10　　 or satisfaction, for example．But nothing happened．Disappointedly, I walked off．“It proved to be a waste of 　　11　　,” I thought．

　　On my way home at the end of the 　　12　　, I saw the busker again and he was 　　13　　．I watched him pick up the hat and walk to a cafe counter．There he poured the total contents into a tin collecting 　　14　　 an earthquake fund-raising(募捐)event．He was busking for charity！

　　Now I donate any 　　15　　 I have to charity tins and enjoy the feeling of giving．

　　My-Space, the social networking website, is different from other websites which only provide stories about other people．My-Space is a place that allows you to broadcast your own stories and personal information to as many people as you like．Started two years ago, it is a big source of information for and about American kids．

　　Teenagers and their parents feel very differently about it．Teens are rushing to join the site, not sharing their parents’ worries．It signals yet another generation gap in the digital era．

　　For teenagers, it is a reliable network to keep in touch with their friends．They will often list their surnames, birthdays, after-school jobs, school clubs, hobbies and other personal information．

　　“My-Space is an easy way to reach just about everyone．I don’t have all the phone numbers of my acquaintances．But if I want to get in touch with one of them, I could just leave them a message on My-Space,” said Abby Van Wassen．She is a 16-year-old student at Woodland Hills High of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania．

　　Parents on the other hand are seriously concerned about the security problems of My-Space．

　　“Every time we hold a parents meeting, the first question is always about My-Space, ”said Kent Cates, who travels the country doing Internet safety seminars(研讨会)．The National Centre for Missing and Exploited Children has received at least 288My-Space-related complaints, according to Mary Beth Buchanan, a lawyer in Pittsburgh．

　　“Your profile on My-Space shows all your personal information to anyone on the Web．And My-Space even lists this information by birthplace and age．It’s like a free checklist for trouble-makers and it endangers children,” Buchanan said．
