On the first day of sixth grade, I noticed one little girl called Amy on the school bus.“Don't talk to her.her,”warned Lauren, who sat beside me.“Or they will 1 you.”
Amy had many physical differences-lots of 2 for other kids to make fun of her.Her eyes weren't straight.Her glasses were an inch thick.And she had really ugly teeth.
Every day 3 we drove to and from school, kids would shout insults(侮辱)at Amy,“God, what a 4 face!Stop looking at me!”“Mr.Holland(the driver)!Amy took off her glasses, and now her eyes are frightening me.Make her 5 her!”For a while I shouted my share of insults, just so I'd fit in. 6 , I didn't want them to treat me the same way they treated Amy.
But while I was insulting her, my heart 7 for the girl.I could see that the insults were making her look 8 , because she was so ashamed and alone.Then I wanted to 9 her.I just didn't know how to stop my schoolmates- 10 the night of our class roller-skating party.
Our whole class were there 11 Amy.Amy didn't know how to skate, but I could see how much she wanted to have 12 like the rest of us.So I skated over to her and took her by the hand. 13 we began the journey together around the skating rink(溜冰场).She just smiled, and every once in a while she would laugh in 14 .
On the school bus the next morning there was much 15 about Amy and me skating together.But nobody 16 her or me.And they didn't for the rest of the year.I 17 heard from Amy again after the school year.But I've always hoped that I changed her life 18 the better.
She changed 19 life actually.After becoming her friend, I no longer tried to impress people by trying to 20 like them.I became myself.
