The letter was to an old teacher with whom I kept in 3 on Facebook. For months, I read about what she 4 on her Facebook page, which helped me to live my life differently. Her volunteer (志愿者) work wasn't huge. 5 , she was doing small, local good deeds.
6 , she changed my views on the world and for some reason. I felt I should let her know how her example
7 influenced me.
I could have easily sent her an email, but that seemed not enough for such an important thank-you. That's why I ended up 8 the letter.

my note 14 a lot to her. She said she had no idea she was playing such a big 15 in others' life.

I was so 17 that it had such a great influence on her that I decided to write a(n) 18 letter to someone each month. Now it's easier for me to 19 the goodness in others and be more 20 for this beautiful life I'm living.

的最佳选项。
It's been a long time since I wrote a creative essay. Recently, with lots of time and lack of inspiration, I accepted a 1 to teach creative nonfiction. 2 I couldn't get myself to write my own stories. I could require that my students tell theirs.
"You're going to be 3 a journal in this class." I said. "And I want you to tell your stories like they matter."
"Why do they matter?" a boy named Michael asked. "I mean, who 4 about our stories?"
No one said a wont. Perhaps they were just tired from their 5 lives. Many worked full-time while in school full-time. Most might not have the faintest 6 that their stories did matter. They didn't even know that their stories were stories — as beautiful and hard — as their own lives.
7 , I looked at Michael. "They matter because they do." I said. "Because you're here and you can tell them. Stories allow us to make 8 of what we're 9 . When you 10 your experience into a story, it becomes yours and not just something that 11 to you."
Michael didn't look 12 , but he didn't challenge me either.
