Our coach, Tony Severino, came out of his office at 6 o’clock He told the team how       this game was for the season, between two of the state’s top teams _ my school and our opposing team, Liberty High School. His words gave the team impulse (沖動）it needed to       .
At 7:10 pm, warm - ups finished, we went over the game        and discussed what we needed to do for the next three hours. The sound of the national anthem (國歌)         that we were only minutes from the action. Our coach usually made a final         . But tonight was different. On this clear night he         looked around the room at all the players and shouted, “Let’s go and get them” Even         the “get” came out of his mouth, we were already         our way out of the door.
Outside, a few young fens reached to touch our hands, eager to be a         of our school’s winning tradition. When I smiled and         my hand, the young feces lit up as if they had just met Superman.
Seconds later, the team ran onto the           ，moving as a mass of blue, in front of a packed stadium. We enjoyed a noisy         from fens and the fight song played by our school band. Breathing in the         of one of the biggest game of the year, I felt we were sure to win. I told myself, “This was what it was all about” and         that it was for moments like this that I loved high school football.

When I was 8, a gentleman came to my orphanage（孤兒院）and taught us how to do woodworking projects.
I remember my first project—a small table. I was so      of it that I looked upon it as if I had created a(an)     . It was absolutely beautiful and it had taken me six weeks to      it.

As the tables were not dry from the clear coating, the man told us to wait a few days before taking them to our dormitories. But I was just so      and happy that I couldn’t wait. I dashed out like a     , carrying my table, smiling from ear to ear.
When I reached the dormitory I placed the little table beside my bed. I was      it when Mother Winters entered. She walked over to the table. Running her hand      it, she noticed that it was still wet.
“Were you      to bring this home?” she asked.
“No, ma’am,” I      with my head down.
She ordered me to throw the table out and so I did. After she left, I immediately opened the door to get it back. There was      stuck all over. I brushed and cried, but it would not come off.
I hid the table in my closet and never      it. A year later while cleaning up, I gave the table to Mother Henderson, my houseparent（宿管員）, thinking that she would      it away.

When I was in the seventh grade, I was a candy striper (義工) at a local hospital in my town. I volunteered(自愿做) about 30 to 40 hours a week during the summer.
Most of the time I spent there was with Mr. Gillespie. He never had any visitors, and nobody seemed to care about his condition. I spent many days there holding his hand and talking to him, helping with anything that needed to be done. He became a close friend of mine, even though he responded with only an occasional squeeze (緊握) of my hand. Mr. Gillespie was in a coma (昏迷).
I left for a week for a vacation with my parents, and when I came back, Mr. Gillespie was gone. I didn’t have the courage to ask any of the nurses where he was, for fear they might tell me he had died. So with many questions unanswered, I continued to volunteer there through my eighth-grade year.
Several years later, when I was a junior in high school, I was at the gas station when I noticed a familiar face. When I realized who it was, my eyes filled with tears. He was alive! I got up the nerve to ask him if he was Mr. Gillespie, and if he had been in a coma about five years ago. With an uncertain look on his face, he replied yes. I explained how I knew him, and that I had spent many hours talking to him in the hospital. His eyes welled up with tears, and he gave me the warmest hug I had ever received.
He began to tell me how, as he lay there comatose (昏睡的), he could hear me talking to him and could feel me holding his hand the whole time. He thought it was an angel(天使), who was there with him. Mr. Gillespie firmly believed that it was my voice and touch that had kept him alive. Then he told me about his life. We exchanged a hug, said our good-byes and went our separate ways.
Although I haven’t seen him since, he fills my heart with joy every day. I know that I made a difference between his life and his death. As importantly, he has made a great difference in my life. I will never forget him and what he did for me: He made me an angel.
