In my living room, there is a plaque(匾) that advises me to “Bloom 1.you are planted.” It reminds me of Dorothy. I got to know Dorothy in the early 1980s, when I was teaching Early Childhood Development through a program with Union College in Barbourville, Kentucky. The job 2. (responsible) required occasional visits to the classroom of each teacher in the program. Dorothy stands out in my memory as the one 3.“bloomed” in her remote area.

Dorothy taught in a school in Harlan County, Kentucky, Appalachian Mountain area. To get to her school from the town of Harlan, I followed a road 4. (wind) around the mountain. In the eight-mile journey, I crossed the same railroad track five times, giving the possibility of 5. (catch) by the same train five times. Rather than feeling excited by this drive through the mountains, I found it depressing. The poverty level was shocking and the small shabby houses gave me the greatest feeling of6.(hope).

From the moment of my arrival at the little school, all gloom(忧郁) disappeared. Upon arriving at Dorothy’s classroom, I was greeted with smiling faces and treated like a queen. The children 7. (prepare) to show me their 8. (late)  projects. Dorothy told me with a big smile that they were serving poke greens salad and cornbread for “dinner” (lunch).

Lonely 9. she was far away from the modern civilization and convenience, she never ran out of reports of exciting activities of her students. Her enthusiasm never cooled down. She passed all the tests 10.(excellent) and I found that Dorothy was really blooming where life had planted her.
