  Many years ago, I was a shy boy and lived a very peaceful life. I liked school but I felt bored.

  And then I started the fourth grade. My teacher, Mrs. Gerlip, was a young woman who was good at writing, art and music. Her class was very interesting. With her help, I started Fun Club with some boys in my class. I also wrote a book called Through the Forest. And lots of my classmates like it.

  However, I was surprised when fifty years later I got a letter about a reunion(聚会). A few days later, we had a reunion at Mrs. Gerlip’s home. Reconnecting(重新联系) with Mrs. Gerlip was a journey back in time. Fifty years have passed, but my teacher still remembers every student. She even doesn’t forget the class bully(欺负)—a boy used to hit me with snowballs on my way to school. Lots of teachers thought bullying was nothing serious at that time, but Mrs. Gerlip didn’t agree. She put a stop to it at once when she found out about it.

  Now, in my mid-fifties, I appreciate the gifts Mrs. Gerlip has given me even more. It’s never too late to say thanks to this fantastic teacher. I hope you are lucky enough to have one teacher like Mrs. Gerlip.

  Have you heard of homesickness(思乡病)? Homesickness can be a terrible feeling for anyone who is away from their hometown or simply away from their house for a long time.

  If so, what should you do? You can choose to talk with your parents on the phone. This may be a good idea for you to feel that you are not alone. It also reminds you that the people you love are still there and you will see them soon. However, sometimes it can make you even worse. It can make you want to go home even more and make you realize how much you miss their love ones. For this reason, you can find another way. You deal with homesickness by not connecting(联系) with your family. You try to find something interesting in the place you are staying in and make more friends. This can not only help you remember the place they are staying in. And later it can become a beautiful memory.
