During my second year of middle school, our teacher gave us a test. I studied hard and ___ well in all the subjects, so the questions were not difficult for me. ____I stopped when I read the last one: “What is the _____ of the woman that cleans the school?”
Of course this was a joke. I saw the cleaning woman every day. She was short and about 60 years old. She had dark hair. But _____ would I know her name? I had never talked with her before. In fact, I had never even thought _____ talking to her. I started to feel rather guilty. Finally, I _____ my paper, without finishing the last question.
Before the class ended, one student asked, “Will the last question count toward _____ grade?” “ Of course,” the teacher said. “ In your life, you will meet many people. All are important. They deserve(值得) your attention and care, even if you just _____ and say hello to them.”
I’ve _____ forgotten that lesson. I should get to know all of the people who work and live around me. That was, perhaps, the most ____ lesson of my life. Later, I learned that the cleaning woman’s name was Dorothy.
