I remembered Ricky came back to see me ten years after he was in my class. He told me how I had ____41____ changed his life.
Ricky often looked out of the window during one of my ninth-grade history classes early in my teaching____42____. He was quiet, and his good grades and mild manner were the reason____43____ I did not move him away from the seat by the window.
One day, I ____44____ over his shoulder and quietly asked, “What are you looking at? You look out of this window during every class.”
He said, “I am looking at the band.”
According to Ricky, I said, “If you like the band so much that you have to look at them during this class every day, I want you to go down to Mr. Overby (the band teacher) and tell him that I____45____ you. Tell him that you want to be in the band. Now ____46____ and finish working before the bell rings.”
The next day Ricky went to Mr. Overby and told him I had sent him and he wanted to be in the band. He ____47____ that he did not know how to play any instrument.
When Ricky visited me ten   years later, he thanked me____48____ telling him to go to Mr. Overby because he fell in love with music and discovered his musical talent that had not been ____49____.

Most of all, music had brought great pleasure and _____52_____ to his life.
After Ricky thanked me, I_____53_____ that he did all of the hard work it took to become the wonderfully talented person that he was. I did not make him walk downstairs to join the band, practise his_____54_____, and get the good grades that led to his college scholarship.
Ricky responded that I could have yelled _____55_____ him for looking out of the window. Instead, I gave him a(n) _____56_____ that changed his whole life.
After he left, I thought about his words. I _____57_____ that I was teaching children with every word I said, every action I took, and with every decision I _____58_____.

There isn’t a book that I always ____61____ to at this most wonderful time of year, as jingle-bell ____62____ has it. Having said that, my husband is much more Christmassy than me and there are two texts he has made a(an) ____63____ part of the family festival, like the ____64____ tributes to the dawn of next year led by the calendar.
This Christmas, then, the following unchanging ritual (仪式) will be ____65____. He shooed us to the sitting room, withdrawing a shiny black long-playing ____66____ from its ancient, crumbling sleeve and place it on the turntable.
When he did this the first time our children were ____67____, as up to that point in their young and tech-centric lives they’d never seen such a thing before. They were quite happy to watch it go round and round ____68____ the point of the ritual was the spinning disk, whatever sound was coming out of the two ancient speakers.
“Richard Burton is the best,” my husband then cut in ____69____. As the dark Welsh _____70_____ of Burton began to narrate (解说) Dylan Thomas’s radio drama Under Milk Wood, the children would settle in silence, _____71_____ their listening positions in the sitting room by the fire, only slightly anxious about how to convey without complaining out loud their deep concerns about being detained too long from toys, televisions and presents.
My husband will sonorously (洪亮地) _____72_____ his favourite bits so we all benefit from hearing the words in stereo (立体声). Our Master’s Voice and Burton’s declaiming Under Milk Wood together.
“It is a spring, moonless night in the small town, starless and bible-black…”
Filled with seasonal feeling and wonder as any bible reading or carol, the best bit for me is watching my children’s faces as the _____73_____ words make pictures in their heads _____74_____ Dylan Thomas’s unimprovable formulations: they see the dogs in the wet-nosed yards and they hear the hushed town breathing.
This is as much a part of Christmas as a Festival of Ten Lessons and Carols from Kings to all my family, and this is _____75_____ :Even though cold and silence and blackness run through the piece like a layer of _____76_____ , it beats with heat and warmth. It is a celebration of humanity. Compare the words of “Silent Night” to this:
“Time passes. Listen. Time passes. Only you can hear the houses sleeping in the streets in the slow deep salt and silent black, bandaged night. ”
Of course, on the face of it, Thomas’s A Child’s Christmas in Wales is the more _____77_____ text, and my husband will often play or read that too. The _____78_____ lines of A Child’s Christmas, “I said some words to the close and holy darkness, and then I _____79_____ ,” are perfectly final. Dylan Thomas rounds off his little story of his Welsh childhood as Shakespeare rounds off our little lives — with a sleep.
All is dark, all is bright in both, but the one I ponder _____80_____ my heart is Under Milk Wood.

While I sort of______95______ her deaf awareness, she______96______me in some way. She just wanted to communicate with my friends rather than talk______97______ to me.
The experience made me realize the______98______ that deaf people face. I think I owe a (an)______99______ to the deaf community for not wearing my hearing aids confidently. I also see the need to build a more deaf-friendly society and I will do what I can to______100______this.

“The life of an elephant and the life of a human,” I said, ____104____ audible(听得见的), “are not so different.” My fingers ____105____ the watercolor painting I’d done of an African elephant; I knew that my face was red and that everyone was ____106____ me because of it, which only made me blush(脸红) even more.
