Who you are makes a difference
A teacher decided to honour her students by telling them the difference they have made. She presented each of
them with a blue ribbon with letters that read, “Who I Am Makes a Difference.”
Afterwards, the teacher decided to do a class project to see what kind of influence recognition(赞赏)would
have on a community. She gave each of the students three more ribbons and instructed them to spread them and
follow up on the results, and report back to the class in a week.
One boy in the class went to a manager in a company, and honoured him for helping him with his career
planning. He gave him a blue ribbon and put it on his shirt. Then he gave him two extra ribbons, and said, “Would
you please find somebody to honour, give them a blue ribbon, then give them the extra so they can find a third
person.”
Later that day, the manager went to see his boss and gave him the gift of the blue ribbon. He told him that he
deeply admired him for being a creative genius. His surprised boss accepted it delightedly. The manager placed the
blue ribbon right in his boss’s jacket above his heart and gave him the last extra ribbon to pass on.
That night, the boss went home to his 14-year-old son and told him about his day. “One of the managers gave
me an extra ribbon and asked me to find somebody else to honour and I thought about you. I want to honour you,”
said the boss. “My days are really hectic and when I come home, I don’t pay a lot of attention to you. Sometimes
I scream at you for not getting good grades in school and for your bedroom being a mess, but somehow tonight, I
just want you to know that you do make a difference to me. You’re a great kid, and I love you!”
The astonished boy couldn’t stop crying. He looked up at his father and said through his tears, “I was
planning to run away from home tomorrow, Dad, because I didn’t think you loved me. Now I will never do that.”

D. Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题)(12分)
Special delivery
Being a UPS driver, the holidays are always crazy, and I'm always exhausted by the end of the day, losing my
own mood. But on the 24th last year, I went to make my last delivery. When I carried a package up to the home’s
doorstep, I found a poster next to a box covered in Christmas paper.
The poster read: For our delivery person…Santa loves you! In crooked letters that looked like a child’s
writing. I peered into the box, and it was filled with Christmas cookies, all hand-decorated. I glanced over, and
through the curtains at the front window, a little girl with a toothy smile gave me a happy wave. My insides melted
as I waved back mouthing, “________!” — two words that couldn’t possibly sum up what her thoughtfulness
meant to me.
On the way home, I put on my Santa hat, nibbled on the cookies and sang along with the carols on the radio,
feeling the true magic of this wonderful time of year!
——Daphne Harris, 47, Madison
When small turns out to be big
A couple of weeks before Christmas, I loaded up my car with donations and took them to the thrift store(旧
货店). After I returned, I noticed a brand-new pair of fuzzy pink slippers had been left behind.
The store was nearly 30 minutes away and I didn’t plan on going back anytime soon, so I threw them in my
closet. Besides, they were extra small. So tiny that I doubted any adult women could wear that size.
The next day, I went to the grocery store and noticed an Angel Tree in the lobby with gifts underneath to go to
a homeless shelter. One of the paper angels had fallen off, so I went to pick it up and took a moment to read the
wish. It was from a woman who was asking for a warm pair of slippers-size extra small. Pink is my favorite colour,
she’d written. With great joy, I went home, wrapped up the slippers and went back to the store. As I placed the
package under the Angel Tree, a store clerk smiled and thanked me.
“Actually, I’m the thankful one.” I thought. Sometimes the unexpected things in life turn into the best gifts of
all!
——Sarah Chales, 52, Rutland78. What was Daphne Harris’ job?

first passage?
