During my last year of junior high school, our
teacher, Mrs Debby, gave us a ____1___. I was a hard-working student and I did
well in all subjects. I was ____2_____ that I had nailed this test and breezed
through (轻松答完) the questions ___3____ I read the
last one: ‘What is the ___4____ name of the woman who cleans the school?’
Of course I thought that ___5_____ have been a joke. I
saw the cleaning woman every day. She was short and about 50 years old. She had
dark hair. But ___6____ would I know her name? I had never talked with her
before. In fact, I’d never ___7____ thought about talking to her. I looked at
my paper and started to feel rather ___8____. Finally, I handed in my paper,
leaving the last one____9___.
Before the quiz (随堂测验) ended,
one student asked if the last question would be ___10___ in our grades. “Of
course,” the teacher said, “In your life, you will meet many people. They are
all ____11___. They deserve (理应得到) your attention and
care, even if all you do is to____12___ and say hello.”
I’ve never___13____ that lesson. Everyone deserves my
___14_____ and I should get to know all of the people ___15____ work and live
around me. That is, perhaps, the most important lesson of my life. I also later
learned that the cleaning woman’s first name was Hannah.
