I told him that I couldn't do it. He asked, "Why not?" I paused, and then I said, "Because I'm educable mentally retarded  ."      He came from behind his desk and looked at me. "Don't ever say that again. Someone's opinion of you does not have to become your reality," he said.      It was a very special moment for me. Doctors said that I was educable mentally retarded in the fifth grade, and I was put back into the fourth grade. When I was in the eighth grade, I failed again.    But Mr Washington changed my life. This person always gave students the feeling that he had high expectations of them, and then all of the students did their best to live up to what those expectations were. He often said, "You have greatness within you."     One day, I caught up with him in the parking place and said, "Mr Washington, is there greatness within me, sir?"     He said, "Yes, Mr Brown."     "But what about the fact that I failed in English, math and history? What about that, sir? I'm slower than most kids."    "It doesn't matter. It just means that you have to work harder. Your grades don't determine who you are or what you can produce in your life."    "I want to buy my mother a house."    "It is possible, Mr Brown. You can do that." And he turned to walk away.    "Mr Washington?"    "What do you want now?"    "Uh, I'm the one, sir. One day you're going to hear my name. I'm the one, sir."    School was a real struggle for me. Mr Washington put many demands on me. He made me believe that I could do it. At the end of that year, I was on the honor roll for the first time in my life.   Years later, I produced five programs on public television. When one of my programs was shown on the educational television channel, I had some friends call him. I was sitting by the phone waiting when he called me. He said, "May I speak to Mr Brown, please?"    "Oh, Mr Washington, is that you?"   "Yes, it's me. You...

Her parents gave in.     Curious to know her daughter would use the phone, Jane Bidder, the mother, followed Lucy to the school bus in the morning. The bus seats 20, of whom half have a mobile phone. One rings and several adolescent  owners fumble in their bags.     Many parents have just come to realize that the mobile phone is no longer for traveling businessmen ----it is as likely to be found in school bags.     The mobile phone seems to have become something essential for today's teens in Britain, according to a survey published last week, by NOP, a leading market research company in Britain. Research found that 66 percent of 16-year-olds now have access to a mobile phone.     The mobile phone has been turned into a secret messaging service by teen users. When they are talking on the mobile, their parents are not able to  _ on the second line.     The interview with 2,019 young people aged 7 to 16 found that they favour the text messaging services because they offer a secret way of keeping in touch. The days of secret notes in the classroom are dying out.     For example, "cul"means "see you later"; "lol" means "laugh out loud"; and 2nite is the abbreviation of "tonight". All these are based on shorthand phrases on the Internet.     Many schools have banned students using mobile phones. But they are not very successful. Still phones ring in the class and disturb study. Besides, people are worried about the health risk to kids using mobile phone.     Scientists believe children are especially vulnerable  to mobile radiation. Question: Interviews discover children like to send messages instead of   _  . - calling each other - writing to each other - playing games online - greeting each other
writing to each other

When he suddenly heard a loud deep voice from the shadows, the mountaineer was knocked down. He tried to look for the creature  that had made the sound. He saw a great creature with purple wings in the sky. It looked like it was about 30 feet tall. The mountaineer kept this story a secret in fear of being laughed at by others but when new stories came in about the Batsquatch he shared his story.
