When I started school my classmates made it clear to me how I must look to others: a little girl with an ugly lip. And I was deaf in one ear. I was sure that no one outside my family could love me. Then I entered MrsLeonards second-grade class.Mrs. Leonard was round and pretty, with shining brown hair and dark smiling eyes. Everyone loved her. But no one came to love her more than I did. And for a special reason.The time came for the annual(每年的)hearing test given at our school. The “Whisper test” required each child to go to the classroom door, turn sideways(侧身), close one ear with a finger, while the teacher whispered something from the desk, which the child repeated. Then the same for the other ear. The teacher usually whispered things like “ The sky is blue.” Or “do you have the new shoes?”My time came. I turned my bad ear toward her, blocking the other just enough to be able to hear. I waited, and then came the words that God had surely put into her mouth, seven words that changed my life forever.Mrs.Leonard, the teacher I loved, said softly, “I wish you were my little girl.”（ ）46.

Winds blew at a speed of about 15mph.Roads were ice around 5 a.m., as Mergner drove a red 2008 Honda Civic north of Ridge and Brink roads.
