5a The Most Important Day in my Life

5a The Most Important Day in my Life

Have you ever been at sea in a dense fog when it seemed as if a tangible white darkness

shut you in, and the great ship, tense and anxious, groped her way toward the shore? I was like

that ship before my education began, only I had no way of knowing how near the harbor was.

The most important day I remember in all my life is the one on which my teacher, Anne

Mansfield Sullivan, came to me. I am filled with wonder when I consider the immeasurable

contrast between the two lives which it connects. It was the third of March, 1887, three months

before I was seven years old.

On the afternoon of that exciting day, I guessed vaguely from my mother’s signs and from

the hurrying to and fro in the house that something unusual was about to happen, so I went to

the door and waited on the steps.

I felt approaching footsteps. I thought it was my mother and stretched out my hand.

Someone took it, and then I was caught up and held close in the arms of the person who had

come to reveal all things to me, and, more important than that, to love me.

The morning after my teacher came she led me into her room and gave me a doll. When I

had played with it a little while, Miss Sullivan slowly spelled into my hand the word “d-o-l-l”. I was

at once interested in this finger play and tried to imitate it. When I finally succeeded in marking

the letters correctly I was filled with childish pleasure and pride. Running downstairs to my

mother I held up my hand and made the letters for doll. I did not know that I was spelling a word

or even that words existed; I simply made my fingers go in monkey-like imitation. In the days that

followed I learned to spell in this uncomprehending way many words, among them, “pin”, “hat”,

“cup”, and a few verbs like “sit”, “stand” and “walk”. But my teacher had been with me several

weeks before I understood that everything has a name.

One day while I was playing with my new doll, Miss Sullivan gave me my old doll, too. She

then spelled “d-o-l-l” and tried to make me understand that “d-o-l-l” applied to both. Earlier in

the day, we had a struggle over the two words “m-u-g” and “w-a-t-e-r”. Miss Sullivan had tried to

impress it on me that “m-u-g” is “mug” and “w-a-t-e-r” is “water,” but I persisted in mixing up the

two. I became impatient and, seizing the new doll, I dashed it on the floor, breaking it into pieces.

I was not sorry after my fit of temper. In the dark, still work, I had no strong sentiment for

anything.

My teacher brought me my hat, and I knew we were going out into the warm sunshine. We

walked down the path to the well-house. Someone was drawing water and my teacher place my

hand under the spout. As the cool stream gushed over one hand, she spelled into the other word

water, first slowly, then rapidly. I stood still; my whole attention was fixed upon the movements

of her finger. Suddenly I seemed to remember something I had forgotten – a thrill of returning

thought – and the mystery of language was revealed to me. I knew then that the “w-a-t-e-r”

meant that wonderful cool something that was flowing over my hand. That living word awakened

my soul and set it free.

I left the well-house eager to learn. Everything had a name and each name gave birth to a

new thought. As we returned to the house, every object which I touched seemed to be full of life.

That was because I saw everything with a strange, new sight that had come to me. On entering

the door I remembered the doll I had broken. I felt my way to the fragments and tried in vain to

put them together. Then my eyes were filled with tears, for I realized what I had done, and for the

first time I felt sorry. I learned a lot of new words that day. It would have been difficult to find a happier child

than me when I lay in my small bed that night and thought of the joys that day had brought to me,

and for the first time I longed for a new day to come.

I Want to Become a Diligent Person

Hi there! My name is Timmy and I'm 10 years old. I go to

Oakwood Elementary School and I'm in the 5th grade. Today I

want to tell you all about how I really, really want to become a

diligent person.

What does it mean to be diligent? Well, my teacher Mrs.

Robinson says it means being hard-working and doing your

tasks carefully and thoroughly, without being lazy or cutting

corners. A diligent person doesn't procrastinate or goof off -

they get stuff done!

I think being diligent is super important. My friend Johnny is

really diligent with his homework. He always gets it done right

after school instead of watching TV or playing video games first.

Then he has the rest of the night to have fun. Meanwhile, I

usually leave my homework until the very last minute and end up

My Awesome Daily Routine

Hi there! My name is Charlie and I'm 10 years old. I'm going

to tell you all about my daily routine because I think it's pretty

awesome. Every day is packed with fun activities that keep me

busy from morning until night. Are you ready? Let's go!

I usually wake up around 7am when my mom comes into my

room and gently shakes me awake. "Rise and shine, sleepyhead!"

she'll say with a big smile. I stretch my arms out wide and let out

a huge yawn. As much as I'd love to stay cuddled up in my cozy

bed, I know it's time to start the day.

After putting on my slippers and robe, I head to the

bathroom to brush my teeth and get ready. My favorite

toothpaste is the bubblegum flavor - it makes my mouth feel

super fresh and clean. Once I'm all set, I go downstairs to the

My Summer Holiday

During my summer holiday, I went to a beautiful beach with

my family. The weather was perfect and the water was crystal

clear. I spent hours playing in the sand, building sandcastles, and

swimming in the ocean. I also collected seashells and watched

the sunset every evening.

One day, we went on a boat trip to a nearby island. It was so

much fun exploring the island, climbing rocks, and searching for

hidden treasures. We even had a picnic on the beach and played

beach volleyball.

Overall, my summer holiday was amazing and I can't wait for

next year's holiday!
