One Friday afternoon in my first year of high school, I saw a kid from my class walking home. His name was Kyle. He seemed to be carrying all his books. Then some kids ran at him, 1 all his books out of his arms. His glasses went flying and landed in the grass. My heart 2 to him, so I jogged over and handed him his 3 . He thanked me with a big smile.
Monday morning came and there was Kyle with the huge stack of books 4 . I teased him, “Boy, you are gonna build some real 5 with this pile of books every day!” He just laughed and handed me half the books.
He turned out to be the best student of our class and had to make a 6 on the graduation day. As he stood on stage, he 7 his throat, and began: “Graduation is a time to thank those who helped you make it 8 those tough years. Your parents, your teachers, your siblings…but mostly your friends… I am here to tell you that being a(n) 9 to someone is the best gift you can give them. I am going to tell you a story. ”
I just looked at my friend with 10 as he talked about the first day we met. He had planned to kill himself. He had cleaned out his locker 11 his mum wouldn’t have to do it later and carry his stuff home.
He looked hard at me and gave me a little smile. “ 12 , I was saved. My friend saved me from doing the   13 . ”
I heard the gasp (倒抽气) in the crowd as this handsome, popular boy told us about his 14 moment. I saw his mum and dad looking at me with that same grateful smile. Not until then did I realize the 15 of the smile. With one small action you can change a person’s life. God puts us all in each other’s lives to influence one another in some way.

The first time I felt the impact of UCLA’s (加利福尼亚大学洛杉矶分校) diversity was during New Student Orientation (新生入学培训). At a brand-new campus, we are surrounded by 16 . We really feel the social tension between the incoming (新来的) students, hoping to find friends in a strange environment.
17 into a group of 10 students, we got our first chance to get to know one another. Our group sat in a kindergarten style to 18 what we’d just experienced. There were a few minutes of sparse (稀少的) conversation 19 the wall of awkwardness was 20 by a girl. She began 21 her own life. She explained that on one side, she was Filipino, and on the other, Mexican. She was not quite 22 in among Mexicans or Filipinos, feeling 23 about her place in the world. Sadly bowing her head, she stopped saying. It seemed that she was describing my 24 . As a matter of fact, my parents also came from 25 countries. So I told her that I totally understood how she 26 .
This year, UCLA admitted one of its most diverse groups of students yet, which means freshmen will 27 things like mine more than ever before. The diversity leads to more 28 for personal growth.
Compared to other universities, those chances are what really make being a freshman special. But to 29 from the university’s diversity, students should seek good solutions. They could 30 stories, learn from friends and compare one another’s lives in the process of studying.

The park was ours for about two hours. Then a young mother pushed her stroller (婴儿车)towards us. When she approached, Dad 32 leaned over the stroller, waved and gave the baby his best smile. The mother stared at him for a second, then 33 . Looking at her back, Dad covered his face with his hands and walked to the car. “Let’s go,” he said. “I’m feeling 34 .”

When others doubted Gabe, the dance coach told him, “You get a spot on this team because you 72 it.” This was really a huge moment for him.

The following morning the dwarf made all the palace people gather together in the same 101 . After inspecting them for the whole morning, without 102 a word, during lunch, the dwarf started asking them what they knew about the 103 jewels one by one.
Once again，it seemed that no one had been the thief. But then, suddenly one of the 104 began coughing, rolling with pain，and finally he 105 the floor. The dwarf, with a smile, explained that the food they had just eaten was 106 ，and the only antidote (解毒药) for this poison was hidden inside the ruby that had been stolen the previous 107 before yesterday.

Let’s face it, studying is hard work. But if you’re honest with yourself you know that all the effort will 116 in the end. Doing well in school will mean you have a 117 chance of getting the career you really want. Okay, so you knew that already.
118 did you know that someone who studies harder is far more 119 to become a better person too?
Here is a real story for students to read.
The story becomes special when you see what troubles she overcame.
She had a 120 childhood. She was once stabbed (刀刺) in the face by the young gang(帮派)member, and at times eating only ice because her family couldn’t afford 121 .
You can conclude that she lived in a poor neighborhood where 122 was a common thing.
On top of that she was very bad in school, 123 at math and chemistry. That didn’t stop her from going on to graduate in the top five of her college class with a degree in 124 .
After the 125 in which she got stabbed, she 126 to a new school. But she couldn’t afford to move to a(n) 127 neighborhood. Now she was two hours away from her new school, going every day through two very 128 areas.
She was interested in the people in her new school. An interesting fact is that her English was “good” 129 to kids in the new school. She meets mentor (辅导老师) that teaches her math so she could get 130 grades. Through this process, she 131 how actually smart she is and the only thing that was stopping her was fear.
To make the story 132 she started to teach math and later she got an offer to work for NASA on real rocket design.
The only thing that stops you is the 133 of unknown. 134 is that hard that you can’t learn or overcome. I 135 you to check her book called Mathaphobia: How You Can Overcome Your Math Fears and Become a Rocket Scientist by Olympia LePoint.

The most important lesson I learned in high school came at graduation several minutes 136 I left school.
I was rather shy back then, content to hang around with my few friends and to concentrate on my 137 . I was doing so well that by the end of the senior year I had perfect 138 and enough credits to go to college.
But my good record soon became a fear to my well-being. The headmaster asked me to give a leave-taking speech at graduation. I looked at him, my heart 139 fast. This was the reward for my hard work?
I was 140 about the decision, though finally agreeing to take up the task. I would 141 the honor with five other students. Still, I was uncertain whether the task was beyond me.
Graduation day soon arrived and, as 142 , I was nervous. I'd been practicing my speech for days, and I had it 143 in my mind clearly. But I had 144 been so frightened in my life. The first half hour of the 145 finally passed, and then my 146 came. My name was announced. I 147 to reach the stage without falling down. But within minutes, I finished my speech, 148 back to my seat.
Now I still have the 149 of that speech. My voice trembled（颤抖）a little, but 150 it was clear and strong. I'm proud of that tape. I achieved 151 I'd never dreamed—I spoke in front of hundreds of people. The successful completion of that speech gave me the 152 to participate in class at college, to give oral reports, and to eventually break free from my 153 .
I never would have chosen to give a speech at graduation. But I'm 154 I did. I know it may well 155 to be one of my shining moments.

Everyone wants a blue ribbon. Blue. First place. The best.  However,  I was 156 a blue-ribbon person in sports.
One spring weekend our class had a field trip to a park. After lunch, our teacher 157 the idea of having a three-legged race. A little boy got me for a 158 . This boy was the second most 159 boy in our class.  I’m sure he knew he was in trouble the second they tied his 160 to mine. This guy was a winner.  But I knew that, with me, he didn’t have a 161 .
The gun sounded, and we were off to the other side. 162 when we turned around and headed back for home ,  we were in the lead!
Then only feet from the finish line,  I   163 and fell. Bad luck!
We were close enough that my partner could have easily 164 me across the finish line and won. He could have,  but he didn’t.  Instead,  he 165 , reached down,  and helped me up, just as the other couple crossed the finish line.  I still remember that moment,  and I still have that little red ribbon.
When we grew up,  I became a lecturer. I gave a 166 to my audience. I told them about that little boy who had made a split-second decision that 167 a friend up was more important than winning a blue ribbon.
I told them why I’ve kept that ribbon. To me, that ribbon is a 168 that you don’t have to be a winner to those closest to you. The world may see you as a failure or a success, but those   169 to you will know the truth. That’s important to remember as we   170   through this life.
