We all went to the plant sale held in early May every year, just in time for Mothers Day.When I was in Grade Three, I wanted to surprise my mother

22、with a gift, but I didnt have any money. My oldest sister gave me some. I carefully made my selection（选择） at the plant sale. I looked at all the plants on sale very carefully and finally chose a lovely geranium（天竺葵）. Once I had brought it home, I hid it on the neighbors porch（门廊）.On Mothers Day, I w

23、as bursting with pride when I gave her the plant. I remember how bright her eyes were, and how delighted she was with my gift.A few years later, my younger sister wanted to buy a geranium for our mother. As my older sister did for me, I gave her some money to buy one at the plant sale. She arrived b

24、ack from the sale full of nervous excitement. The geranium was hidden in a paper bag under her sweater. “I looked at every plant.” she explained. “and I know I got the best one!”With a sweet sense of family tradition I helped my little sister hide that geranium. I was there when she gave it to my mo

25、ther, and I watched them both bursting with happiness. My mother noticed me watching. She gave me a soft, secret smile. I felt a tug （拽）at my heart as I smiled back.

Last Monday, at the beginning of class, I asked my students how their weekend had been. One young man said tha

29、t his weekend had not been so good. He had his wisdom teeth removed. Then he went on to ask me why I always seemed to be so cheerful.His question made me think of something Id read somewhere before: Every morning when you get up, you have a choice about how you want to live that day. I said, “I choo

30、se to be cheerful.”“Let me give you an example,” I continued. “Besides teaching here, I also teach at a college in Henderson, 17 miles down the freeway from where I live. One day a few weeks ago I excited the freeway and turned onto College Drive. I only had to drive another quarter mile down the ro

31、ad to the college. But just then my car died. I tried to start again, but the engine wouldnt work. So I put my flashes（闪光灯）on ,took my books, and walked down the road to the college. As soon as I got there, I called AAA（汽车协会）and asked for a tow truck（拖车） to meet me at my car after class. The secreta

32、ry（秘书） there asked me what had happened. “This is my lucky day,” I replied, smiling.“Your car breaks down and today is your lucky day? What do you mean?” “My car could have broken down anywhere along the freeway. It didnt.” I replied. “Instead ,it broke down at the perfect place: off the freeway, wi

33、thin walking distance（距离） of here. Im still able to teach my class, and Ive been able to ask for the tow truck to meet me after class!
