Sudha Chandran, a famous dancer from India, had to have her right leg cut after a car accident. She was also cut off  on her career (事業(yè)) road.
Though the accident brought her bright career to a stop, she didn’t give up. In the painful months that followed, Sudha met a doctor who developed a man-made leg for her. So strongly, she wanted to go back to dancing.  Sudha believed in herself and she thought she could realize her dream.
After every public recital (個人表演), she  would ask her dad about her performance. “You
still have a long way to go” was the answer she used to get in return. In January 1984, Sudha made a historic comeback by giving a public recital in Bombay. She performed in such a great manner that it moved everyone to tears. That evening when she asked her dad the usual question, he didn’t say anything. He just touched her feet as a praise. Sudha’s comeback was so moving that a film producer decided to make the story into a hit film.
When someone asked Sudha how she had managed to dance again, she said quite simply, “YOU DON’T NEED FEET TO DANCE.”  Nothing is impossible in this world. If you have the will to win, you can achieve anything.

This story happened when I was 11 years old. I’ll never forget it.
I was at my friend Jenny’s      after school one day. We were doing homework when a friend of Jenny’s mum’s came over to      . I don’t remember her name or even what she looked like. I      remember her hands, her voice and the lesson she taught me.
I remember her hand reaching out for mine. What     hands she had, I thought; rich, dark skin going well with the orange nail polish (指甲油). Then I heard her saying, “Oh no, that is NOT      you shake hands. Let me show you.”
After that, I just remember her voice explaining the importance of a good       , having a sense of self, looking the other person in the eye… At that moment I felt respected.
I think of her every time I meet someone      . I’m so thankful for her little lesson.
I thank her for       the time to teach me something I didn’t know. I thank her for the       that she didn’t talk down to me because I was 11 or because I didn’t       something.

Christmas Love
Each December, I promised to make Christmas a relaxed and peaceful experience. I didn’t spend too much time on card writing, endless cooking and decorating. Yet still, I found myself tired, unable to enjoy the valuable family moments, and of course, to understand the true meaning of        .
Christmas came again. My son, Nicholas, was in primary school that year. It was a very          season for a six-year-old. For weeks, he’d been memorizing songs for his school’s “Winter Celebration.” All the parents were invited to be present at their show.
I didn’t have the heart to tell him I’d be working. Unwilling to          his shining moment, I spoke with his teacher. She told me there’d be a dress rehearsal(彩排) the morning of the presentation. All           unable to be present that evening were welcome to come then.
So, on the           of the dress rehearsal, I arrived ten minutes early. Around the room, I saw several other parents. Because the public school system had long stopped referring to the holiday as “Christmas”, I didn’t          anything other than fun. So, when my son’s class rose to sing “Christmas Love”, I was a little bit surprised by its title.
Nicholas was excited, as were all of his classmates. Those in the front row held up large letters, one by one, to         out the title of the song. As the class would sing “C is for Christmas,” a child would hold up the letter C. Then, “H is for Happy,” and on and on         all the children presented the complete message “Christmas Love”.
The show was going smoothly, until suddenly, a small, quiet, girl in the front row held the letter “M” upside down — totally not knowing her letter “M” appeared as a “W”. The audience(觀眾) laughed at this little girl’s        . But she had no idea why they were laughing at her, so she stood tall,          holding her “W”. The laughter continued until the last letter was raised, and we all saw it together. A sudden          came over the audience and eyes began to widen. At that moment, we understood why we were there and why we        the holiday.
For when the last letter was held high, the message read loud and clear: “CHRIST WAS LOVE”.
