Question

This little story I’m about to tell you happened when I was 11 years old, and I’ll never forget it.

It was at my friend Jenny’s house after 36   one day, and we were doing our homework. While I was there, a friend of Jenny’s mom came over to   37.   I didn’t know her name or   38   what her face looked like. I just  39  her hands, her voice and the lesson I  40   from her.

 I can’t forget that she  41   her hands to introduce herself. It was so  42  , I thought, rich fine skin; then I heard her saying, “Oh no, that is not   43   you shake hands. Let me teach you.” She didn’t do that at all in a condescending (屈尊的) manner.  44  that, I just remember her voice explaining the   45   of a good handshake of conveying (傳達(dá)) a   46  sense of self-belief, of looking the other person in the eyes, and of making a warm  47  . Hearing her friendly words, I first understand what being 48  meant.

 I admired her for  49  time to teach me about one of the important things in life. I was grateful for her not talking down to me   50   I was 11 and didn’t know much. I also felt somewhat admired by the way she  51  me. It felt good to be talked to as a(n)   52   , rather than as an 11-year-old child. I also  53   her telling me that if someone isn’t aware of something you should show him or her the right direction; don’t be afraid to   54   your knowledge.

I think of her every time I meet someone  55   , and I’m so thankful for her little lesson.
