In sixth grade, suddenly, there were two choices: be cool,or invisible. 42 , one day,when a teacher had us fill out a questionnaire with 43 questions, I found the 44 option.
Assuming (假定)the teacher would read our answers privately» I felt it was 45 to share my privacy. To my 46 ,she collected and redistributed (重新分发)them to us. We were asked to 47 the name and our three favorite answers to the whole class. My answers went to the meanest boy in class.
The first question was “What’s your favorite movie?”I read my answer Beauty and the Beast. A laugh erupted and my cheeks 48 . The next was “Where would yolike to travel?” My answer was 49 specical —“Wherever a book takes me. ” The 50 this time had an explosive quality.
I could 51 remember what happened next; all that I had in mind was the laughter. But something amazing happened. A(n) 52 came,“Guys,cut it out. ” The room went 53 . It’s Michelle Siever, a popular and cool girl. Then she 54 ,“Why are yolaughing? What is the point of 55 if we just laugh at others?”
I can't remember the teacher or the kids' names,but I remember Michelle’s. When she 56 for me that day, she 57 me we actually have three choices if we want to be remembered.

I enjoyed many performances in Argentina. But what impressed me more was the dance performance. I used to dance a lot when I am young,although I never was a good dancer. But Argentinian dancers who made dancing so easily that everyone felt like dancing with them. Visit some distant villages also gave me deeper taste of the original Argentinian culture. Among all those place of interest,my favorite one was a mountain. Fortunately,when I arrived there in a cold winter morning,I couldn’ t see much. However,the unusual peace and snow-blanketed winter views still impressed yoa lot.
