On my first day of the sixth grade, I noticed one little girl called Amy on the school bus. “Don’t __1__ her,” Lauren said, who sat beside me. “Or they will make fun of you.”

Amy had many __2__ differences — lots of reasons for other kids to make fun of her. Her eyes weren’t straight. Her glasses were an inch thick. And she had really ugly teeth.

Every day __3__ we drove to and from school, kids would shout insults（侮辱）at Amy. “God, what a （n）__24__ face! Stop looking at me!” “Mr. Rolland （the driver）! Amy took off her __5__, and now her eyes are __6__ me! Make her put them back on!” For a while I shouted my share of insults, just so I’d fit in （合群）__7__, I didn’t want them to treat me the same way they treated Amy.

But while I was insulting her, my heart __8__ for the girl. I could see that the insults were making her look __9__,because she was so ashamed （羞愧）and alone. Then I wanted to __10__ her. I just didn’t know how to stop my schoolmates __11__ the night of our class roller-skating party.

Our whole class was there, including Amy. Amy didn’t know how to __12__, but I could see how much she wanted to __13__ like the rest of us. So I skated over to her and took her by the hand; we began the journey together around the skating rink （溜冰場(chǎng)）.She just smiled, and sometimes she would laugh in __14__.

On the school bus the next morning there was much news about Amy and me __15__ together, __16__ nobody insulted her or me. And they didn’t do that for the rest of the year.

After graduation, I never __17__ Amy again. However, I never forget her and I’ve always __18__ if I changed her life for the better. But I know for sure she changed my __19__. After becoming her friend, I no longer tried to impress （給……留下印象）people by trying to __20__ like them. I became myself.

On the first day of the sixth grade, I noticed one little girl called Amy on the school bus. “ Don’t  16  her,” warned Lauren, who sat beside me. “or they will make fun of you.”
Amy had many  17  differences － lots of reasons for other kids to make fun of her. Her eyes weren’t straight. Her glasses were an inch thick. And she had really uneven teeth.
Every day  18  we drove to and from school, kids would shout insults(侮辱) at Amy. “God，what a strange face! Stop  19  me!”“Mr. Rolland (the driver)! Amy took off her glasses, and now her eyes are frightening me.  20  her put them back on!” For a while I shouted my  21  of insults, just so I’d fit in.  22 , I didn’t want them to treat me the same way they treated Amy.
But while I was insulting her, my heart  23  for the girl. I could see that the insults were making her look uglier, because she was so  24  and alone. Then I wanted to  25  her. I just didn’t know how to stop my schoolmates － 26  the night of our class roller-skating party.
Our whole class was there,  27  Amy. Amy didn’t know how to skate, but I could see how much she wanted to have  28  like the rest of us. So I skated over to her and took her by the hand.  29  we began the journey together around the skating rink. She just smiled, and every once in a while she would laugh in excitement.
On the school bus the next morning, there was much  30  about Amy and me skating together. But  31  insulted her or me. And they didn’t do that for the rest of the year. I  32  heard from Amy again after the school year. But I’ve always  33  that I changed her life for the better.
