26、My life was totally changed because a simple three-word phrase was delivered at the right time in just the right way.
When I was three years old, my parents discovered I was totally deaf, a situation which forced them to make an important decision about my education.
After talking with doctors, they made a decision that would forever change my future. Instead of sending me to a private school for the deaf, they decided to give me a normal education. All of my classmates and teachers would have normal hearing.
I experienced great anxiety throughout elementary school. In addition to the problems of "fitting in" with the other students, I also struggled with most of my schoolwork. Since fitting in was so important to me, every time people around me laughed or smiled, I did the same, even though I usually had no idea what was going on.
Mrs. Jordan, my 5th grade teacher, changed all of that with a simple three-word phrase. One morning, she asked the class a question. I read her lips and immediately raised my hand. I couldn't believe it—for the first time I knew the answer. But when she called on me to give the answer, I was afraid. Here was an opportunity to impress the teacher and show her I was worthy of her love. Maybe, it could even impress my classmates a little.
Despite my fears, I felt confident because I was sure I had the right answer. I took a deep breath and answered Mrs. Jordan's question.
I will never forget what happened next. With sparking eyes and a wide smile, she cried, “That's right, Stephen!”
My heart burst with pride as an ear-to-ear grin filled my face. My confidence went up like never before. I decided at that time that I would make a place for myself in this world. A simple three-word phrase delivered with unbelievable enthusiasm totally changed my young life.

27、“Don’t get discouraged, Hallie,” Kathy said, comforting her with a hug. “It sounds as if you have a bit of a mystery to solve. Maybe you should do a little spying on Maya.”
Feeling better, Hallie put on her scuba gear(潜水服)again and waited. Maya, the dolphin, had been swimming playfully, but suddenly she threw herself to the back of the tank where the filter box(过滤箱)was located. She stuck her nose down behind the box and then swam away.
Hallie followed Maya. “What was she doing here?” she wondered. When she looked behind the box, her question was answered. She swam back and saw Maya was in front of Kathy with a comb in her mouth waiting for her treat.
“Maya! Where did you get that?” demanded Kathy, taking the comb and throwing her a fish.
“I know,” declared Hallie, handing Kathy a handful of items, “I followed her to the filter box and these are what I found.”
From the look on Kathy’s face, Hallie knew everything was beginning to come to light.
“Do you remember the other day you said that Maya really liked her treats?” asked Kathy.“Well, I think this was more than a training exercise for Maya. Every time you found something in the tank, that meant one less fish for Maya. She couldn’t bring all the items to me at once, so she found a hiding place for them. That way you came up empty-handed, but Maya would always get her treat.”
“Okay, Maya,” said Hallie facing the dolphin, “you win! The treats are all yours.”
Maya dived down, and then jumped out of the water, turning herself over in midair. Shaking their heads in disbelief, Hallie and Kathy reached for the fish. Maya deserved the treat.
【1】What was the “mystery” in the story?
A. The secret of Maya’s finding the items.
B. The secret of Hallie’s winning the game.

【2】Maya hid the items because she considered Hallie as a ________.

B. competitor
C. playmate
D. trainer
【3】At the end of the story, Hallie and Kathy thought Maya was ________.
A. energetic
B. genuine
C. loyal
D. smart
