(2021·邯郸高一检测)I was small for my age.I was shy and sometimes it was hard for me to make friends with the others.However，learning came fairly easy for me.I was the best in most of my classes，but PE class was my nightmare(恶梦) and made me feel that I was not as good as the others.

Miss Forsythe was our PE teacher.She was young and energetic.Everyone liked her.She said that we all had to come to her classes.No one could hide from Miss Forsythe!

One day she told me that she wanted me to play a game with another girl in a PE show.I was rather worried that I wouldn't do a good job when she explained her idea，but she was excited.With her encouragement，I had no choice but to agree.It was a “boy meets girl” game.I played the boy and my classmate，Margaret Ann，played the girl.We were dressed in evening clothes and danced around the floor.According to Miss Forsythe，I had to pick up Margaret Ann when we finished the dance.Since I was not strong enough to pick the tallest girl up，it was she who picked me up.I suddenly felt ten feet tall!

It was a huge success and everybody applauded (鼓掌) for our excellent performance.What a wonderful ending！Afterwards，I smiled confidently (自信地).

Miss Forsythe's understanding and willingness to create a place for me in her show (which certainly did not need me) gave me some much needed confidence.She was and always will be my favorite teacher.

Senior year is supposed to be the best year of my high school life.But for a while，it seemed like the most stressful.At the beginning of the school year，I knew that I was going to have to pick a college and a major，and I thought that I was going to major in journalism (新闻学).I had already taken many college tours.But one day I thought about it and asked myself，“Do you really want to be a journalist? Do you really enjoy writing that much to make it your career？”

I didn't  know the answers to my own questions，and I felt lost.My college research had focused on journalism.Now that I doubted my major，I began to doubt the colleges as well.I feared that all that time spent visiting colleges was then a waste.

After realizing this，I started to get really stressed.My friends kept telling me what they wanted to be and which college they wanted to go to.It seemed as though everyone had their lives planned out while I was still not certain what my major would be.

One day in October，I was on the train with some friends and they were all discussing their dream colleges and how eager (渴望的) they were for the majors they chose.One of my friends told us that she had known she wanted to do nursing since her sophomore (高中二年级的)year.I felt jealous (嫉妒的)—I wasn't even thinking about the college two years ago.Then someone asked me，“Mel，what college do you want to go to？”

　I was caught off guard　.“Uh，what？” I said，trying to buy some time.

Then another friend jumped in，“Yeah，Mel，what major are you going to study？”

“Um，I'm not really sure，” I said.“I haven't decided yet.”

The world seemed to stop moving for my two friends.“What? How couldn't you know yet？”
