My mother asked me to go to several garage sales  (宅前旧货出售) with her one cool morning.

We finally__26__at a pleasant house in the woods.The elderly__27__told me that he and his wife were retired (退休的) teachers.As we were searching，I heard the gentleman’s wife say her__28__to someone，and I immediately__29__who she was.She looked at me and said，“You’re Lisa Miller.” I looked at her__30__，for it had been nearly thirty__31__since I had been in her class.

My mother immediately said sorry to her for any__32__I might have made.She did that again after learning that I wasn’t the sweet little child.She thought that if this woman__33__me after so many years，I must have done something__34__.My teacher looked at my mother and__35__said，“Oh，no，she was very good.”

My teacher__36__that during the last week of school，I__37__her a plant from my mother’s garden.It was a lamb’s  ear.She took us to her garden where she planted the lamb’s ear.Over the years it__38__.As I looked down her driveway  (车道) with lamb’s ears on both sides，she said，“Every day when I leave my house and drive up the driveway，I think of you.And when I come home they__39__me，I think of you.”  Tears__40__my eyes.There at her home was a piece of my  life that she had raised.

At that moment，she taught me more about__41__than I  could imagine.We give pieces of ourselves every day__42__thought.We seldom imagine the effects (影响) that we have  on others’ lives.That piece may grow and spread，becoming  a(n)__43__part of a life.In the end it isn’t the big things that  matter，__44__the small things that make all the__45__in the  world.
