This little story I’m about to tell you happened when I was about 11 years old, and I’II never forget it. I was at my friend Jenny’s 1 after school one day, and we were doing (or not doing) homework.. 2 I was there, Jenny’s mom came over to visit.
I don’t remember her name3 what her face looked like. I just remember her hands, her voice and the4 she taught me.
I can still see her hand 5 for mine in our introduction. 6 were so beautiful, I thought; rich, dark skin7 complemented(涂了) by the orange colored polish on her nails. Then I 8 her saying, and not at all in a condescending(居高臨下的) 9 .“Oh no, that is NOT how you shake hands. Let me show you 10.”
After that, I just remember her voice 11 the importance of a good handshake, conveying(傳遞) a positive sense of self, looking at 12 person in the eye, making that first moment matter…I think in that exchange I first understood13.
I respected her for 14 the time to teach me about one of those subtleties(細(xì)微之處) in life. I appreciated the fact 15 she didn’t look down upon me because I was 11 or because I didn’t know something. And so because of that I felt somewhat respected. I mean the 16 she treated me. It felt good to be 17 like a real person. I also appreciate her idea that 18 someone doesn’t pay attention to something, be patient and point him or her19 the right direction. I20 her every time I meet someone and shake hands. And I’m so thankful for her little lesson.

    Many parents don't love to read to their children.But there are so many professionals and PhDs doing
the opposite thing.And they really promote reading to children, which is so good for children.I have found
that this is true with my own children.
     I am not sure if it is the book or the fact that you are spending quality time with them, undivided time
that they will remember for their entire life.Reading to children is one of the most bonding experiences you can have.
      Children enjoy sitting on your lap while your voice flows over them.As the reader it is fun to watch
their littl e faces as they are moved with the flow of the story.They are laughing one moment and on the
next page the story has moved them to tears.As the storyteller, I am just as moved as they are;I am
caught up in the story as our emotions flow up and down.You can easily lose a whole afternoon in reading.
      This is an experience that children then try to pass on to younger children, reading books to them.My
daughter was so into reading that if she couldn't line up some neighbors'children she could be reading her
books to, she would line up her stuffed animals and read to them.Well, she also tried to teach her neighbors and teddy bears math, and "ocean science "as she called it.She would read anything she could to them.

were doing so much better in school.
