Steve, a twelve-year-old boy with alcoholic parents, was failing. Surprisingly, he could read, yet, in spite of his reading skills, Steve had been failing since the first grade. Steve was a big boy, yet, he went unnoticed until Miss White came.
Miss White was a smiling, beautiful, young lady. For the first time in his young life, Steve couldn't take his eyes off his teacher; yet, still he failed. In the middle of the first term, the entire seventh grade was tested for basic skills. Steve hurried through his tests, and continued to dream of other things, as the day passed slowly. One day, Miss White's impatient voice broke into his daydreams. "Steve!" Startled(吓了一跳), he turned to look at her. "Pay attention!" She began to go over the test results. "You all did pretty well," she told the class, "except for one boy, and it breaks my heart to tell you this, but. . . " She hesitated, pinning Steve to his seat with a sharp stare. "The smartest boy in the seventh grade is failing my class!"
After that, Steve still couldn't do his homework. "Just try it," Miss White said one day. "Steve! Please! I care about you!" Wow! Suddenly, Steve got it! Someone cared about him? Someone, so beautiful and perfect, cared about him?! Steve went home from school, thoughtful that afternoon and decided to work hard.
