The primary school was a ten minute walk from my home. Because it is not far away， I could go home for lunch and find my mother waiting for me every day.

When the noon bell rang， I would always race home. My mother would be standing at the top of the stairs， smiling down at me with a look that suggested I was the only important thing she had on her mind. For this， I am forever thankful.

When I was in the third grade， I was picked to be the princess in the school play， and for weeks my mother patiently helped me practice my lines. But no matter how easily I recited them at home， as soon as I stepped on stage， every word disappeared from my head.

Finally， my teacher took me aside. She explained that she had written a narrators （解說員） part to the play， and asked me to change roles. Her words， kindly spoken， still hurt me， espe cially when I saw my part go to another girl.

I didnt tell my mother what had happened when I went home that day. But she sensed my sadness， and instead of helping me practice my lines， she asked if I wanted to walk in the yard.

“I think Im going to dig up all these dandelions （蒲公英），” she said， “From now on， well have only roses in this garden.”

“But I like dandelions，” I protested （抗議）.

“Yes. All flowers are beautiful—even dandelions，” said mother， “My dear， dont lose heart whatever difficulties you might meet with.”endprint

Roger Rolls was the first black governor （州長） in the history of New York State， USA. He was born in one of New Yorks slums （貧民窟）. The children born here seldom did good work after they grew up. However， Roger Rolls not only entered the university， but also he became a gover nor.

When he began to work as the governor， a reporter asked him， “What made you become the governor？” Faced with more than 300 reporters， Rolls did not mention his struggle but only spoke of his primary school schoolmaster—Pierre Paul.
