　　I'll never forget one cold night in Michigan when I was on tour with Alan Jackson．A security man handed me a　　1　　passed along from a lady in the audience：

　　I am here tonight to hear one song－It's Not the End of the World．My son bought two tickets　　2　　this show and he bought them a long　　3　　ahead of time before we knew he was sick with　　4　　cancer．He　　5　　last month after a very short illness．This song made him　　6　　until the end and that made me very, very happy．Tonight, I sit here alone with a(n)　　7　　ticket． 　　8　　I received this note I was so pumped up and excited for the　　9　　．But the note just floored me．I gave the note to my manager and asked him to　　10　　for the lady to come to my preshow meet-and-greet area．Soon, I　　11　　her walking up the hall toward me．She was so happy; her face was　　12　　up with a smile．I sang the song to her and I thought I understood what she was　　13　　．In her heart, she knew her son was living a better life and that made me feel good in my heart．

　　Because of the　　14　　of that song, none of us will　　15　　be the same again．I believe that song completely　　16　　three lives that night．To the boy who had left and was looking　　17　　at us, it helped him find his way to the next life．　　18　　the mother, it allowed her to feel a certain acceptance for his leaving and　　19　　the pain of her loss．And it taught me that it's exciting for an entertainer to bring　20　　into people's lives．

My Teacher in the School of Life

　　I spent the opening day of school this year at DeMatha Catholic High School in much the same way I spent the first day of classes 　　1　　 30 years ago; I sat in Dr Charles E．Offutt’s British literature class, listening to him 　　2　　 what his seniors would learn and get them excited about the journey they would 　　3　　．I’m the principal(校長(zhǎng))of the school now, but for a few minutes I was back in 1975, 　　4　　 what the future held．

　　I arrived in the classroom, ready to share my knowledge and experience with 75 students who would be my English Literature class．Having taught in the US for 17 years, I had no 　　1　　 about my ability to hold their attention and to 　　2　　 on them my admiration for the literature(文學(xué))of my mother tongue．

　　I was shocked when the monitor shouted,“　　3　　!” and the entire class rose as I entered the room, and I was somewhat 　　4　　 about how to get them to sit down again, but once that awkwardness(尷尬)was over, I quickly 　　5　　 my calmness and began what I thought was a fact – packed lecture, sure to gain their respect – perhaps 　　6　　 their admiration．I went back to my office with the rosy glow which comes from a(n)　　7　　 of achievements．

　　My students 　　8　　 diaries．However, as I read them, the rosy glow was gradually 　　9　　 by a strong sense of sadness．The first diary said,“Our literature teacher didn’t teach us anything today．　　10　　 her next lecture will be better．”Greatly surprised, I read diary after diary, each expressing a 　　11　　 subject．“Didn’t I teach them anything?I described the entire philosophical framework(哲學(xué)體系)of Western thought and laid the historical 　　12　　 for all the works we’ll study in class,” I complained．“How 　　13　　 they say I didn’t teach them anything?”

　　It was a long term, and it 　　14　　 became clear that my ideas about education were not the same as 　　15　　 of my students．I thought a teacher’s job was to raise 　　16　　 questions and provide enough background so that students could 　　17　　 their own conclusions．My students thought a teacher’s job was to provide 　　18　　 information as directly and clearly as possible．What a difference!

　　The Part of the environmental movement that draws my firm’s attention is the design of cities, buildings and products．When we designed America’s first so-called“green”office building in New York two decades ago, we felt very alone．But today, thousands of people come to green building conferences, and the 　　1　　 that buildings can be good for people and the environment will be increasingly influential in years to 　　2　　．
