Tyler was only in my senior class for a semester. He had been suspended (停学) many times in previous years because of his anger issues. When he entered my class, I thought the worst.

Tyler sat in the back row. Every time I talked to the class, I would ask students questions, calling them by name. Unfortunately, every time I called on Tyler, he would respond with a joke. If he got an answer wrong, he would become angry.

About a month into the year, I was still trying to connect with Tyler. I can usually get students involved in class discussions or at least have them sit quietly and attentively. However, Tyler was often loud and sometimes rude.

He had been in so much trouble over the years. He expected his teachers to know about his pasts: about how many times he had been sent to the office or suspended from school. I had found that these solutions were not very effective and that students would return from the office behaving worse than before.

One day, Tyler was talking over me while I was teaching. I stopped my lesson and said, "Tyler, why don't you join in our discussion instead of having one of your own?" With that, he got up from his chair, pushed it over and yelled something. I can't remember what he said other than that he included some impolite words. I sent Tyler straight to the office, and he received a week's suspension.

To this point, this was one of my worst teaching experiences. Tyler's anger was almost too much for me. The week Tyler was suspended from school was a wonderful time, and we got a lot accomplished as a class. However, the suspension week would soon come to an end, and I was fearful of his return.

On the day of Tyler's return, I stood at the door awaiting him.

A spark of surprise flashed across his face.

The Winter Olympic Games are not just opportunity for athletes to win medals and honour for their countries. Every four (year), the games also offer audiences a chance (get) to know more about winter sports from around the world. The winter Olympics may not have the large crowds and huge stars of (it) summer sibling, but they share the same Olympic spirit.

One of the (popular) sports of the Winter Olympic Games is skiing. Skiers compete in the downhill and in the short and long cross-country ski races. Skiing was (original) a sport played only in cold northern countries, but now athletes all over the world compete in this sport, even those are from countries without any snow. Skaters compete with each other in speed races or in figure-skating events. The figure-skaters (consider) to be the stars of the Winter Olympic Games. These ice princes and princesses are so (grace) that it's easy to forget they are actually highly skilled athletes.

Do you enjoy the Olympics? I certainly do. Every four years we get to see the best of the best competing for the1 . But sometimes the best inspiration2 those who don't win.

In 1988, Eddie Edwards became the first athlete since 1928 to represent Great Britain in Olympic ski jumping. He had no money, no equipment, no3  — and some called him the great British loser.

"When you4 , it's probably about 500 or 600 feet high. So you do have to be not a little5 to go down, but probably a lot." Eddie recalled, "I got out and the crowd started6 ‘Eddie! Eddie!'. It's the most7 feeling in the world."

How did Eddie do? Eddie's British record of 71 meters8 him in 58th place — 19 meters behind the competitor who placed 57th. But it didn't9 . His fans loved him for other reasons. If you ask anyone in Britain, "Who won the Olympic ski jump in 1988?" Almost no one could tell you.10 , if you ask, "Who is Eddie Edwards?" They'll tell you all about the crazy ski jump guy who they still remember and11 to this day. The British people were proud of him for just trying, thus12 didn't matter a bit. He will be forever and13 memorized by his country for doing what no one else had done in 60 years.

So what14 thing are you afraid to do? Take Eddie's example and just go for it. You might just become a15 .
