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. I thank her for instilling (灌输) the idea that if someone doesn’t know something, don’t be afraid to share your knowledge. 小题1: A．kitchen B．office C．classroom D．house 小题2: A．watch B．help C．visit D．look 小题3: A．just B．still C．also D．hardly 小题4: A．dirty B．beautiful C．large D．useful 小题5: A．why B．when C．where D．how 小题6: A．handshake B．experience C．education D．impression 小题7: A．familiar B．new C．special D．big 小题8: A．saving B．checking C．taking D．changing 小题9: A．truth B．news C．result D．fact 小题10: A．like B．know C．tell D．want
