A video of the event shows an overwhelmed Flexer being moved to tears as she hears former students who are now adults tell her how much she affected their lives.“I’m one of the luckiest people in this world,” Flexer said. “I remember I opened the door to the classroom thinking no one was in there, and it waswall-to-wall people and banners and everything. It was the coolest thing that could have ever happened in my life. How many times do we really realize the lives we’ve touched, the manner in which we’ve touched them, and that these are memories that stay with them for life?Despite being young when they were taught by Flexer, students easily recalled the heartwarming notes she wrote them on report cards, the ways she helped them overcome shyness and awkwardness, and how she inspired them to future academic success to earn scholarships and advanced degrees.Even though Flexer hadn’t seen some of the former students for decades, she instantly remembered the names of every single one there.A scrapbook(剪贴簿) of her career was presented to her as one student afteranother recalled the effect Flexer had on his or her life.“I’ve had many opportunities to move to a school closer to my home, but I said ‘Co le gave me so much in my life that when I retire, I will retire from Cole school and give back what’s been given to me,’” Flexer said. “My career could have taken me nowhere that would have made me happier. I think of it as a blessing.”19.

But people are funny. They think too much about the details.I had a secretary once. She was very hardworking. I ran a school and people used to call up to enroll (注册) for courses. Berry used to get angry at the phone. “If they keep on ringing, I’ll never get my typing done!” she’d shout.People just don’t see the big picture. One evening, afte r leaving work, I was sitting next to a man on the train. I was feeling tired. My eyes fell on the paper he had spread out in front of him. You know how you feel to read over someone’s shoulder?I read the page and leaned back. I guessed I was waiting for him to turn it. After a while, I realized—he wasn’t turning the page. He just kept on reading.Now if you knew the page he was reading, you’d know that there weren’t many words on the page to read anyway. The layout (设计) was mostly pictures. So I turned to the man and said,” You know, you really read very slowly.”“What do you mean?” he asked. “Well,” I told him, “I read the page in about a minute, and you have taken about ten. And you are still reading. You know,” I went on “If you learned to read faster, you could get more reading done.” Heremained silent for a minute or two. “If I read too fast, my paper wouldn’t lastme to my station.”23.

Let’s have a look.People wear pants to cover the lower part of their bodies. We sometimes say thatpeople who are nervous have ants in their pants. Sometimes, people may get caughtwith their pants down. They are found doing something they should not be doing. And,in every family, one person takes control. Sometimes a wife tells her husband what to do. Then we say she wears the pants in the family.Pants usually have pockets to hold things. Money that is likely to be spent quickly can burn a hole in your pocket. Sometimes you need a belt to hold up your pants. If you have less money than usual, you may have to tighten your belt.I always praise People who can save their money and not spend too much. I really take my hat off to them. Yet, when it comes to my own money, I spend it at the drop of a hat, which means I instantly spend it.Boots are a heavy or strong kind of shoes. People who are too big for their boots think they are more important than they really are. I dislike such people.My father is an important person. He runs a big company. He wears a suit and tie, and a shirt with sleeves that cover his arms. Some people who do not know him well think he is too serious and never shows his feelings openly.
