It was the first day of second grade, and Sarah had been looking forward to this moment. The night before,she laid out her favorite clothes: a white coat and a bright yellow shirt.

When having breakfast, Sarah dropped some food on her shirt, so she had to change into her second-best clothes, blue jeans and a Jonas Brothers T-shirt.

After breakfast Sarah rushed to catch the school bus and when she was just reaching the door the bus driver opened it. The door hit right in Sarah’s face and blood dripped from her nose. The driver wanted to send her home, but she refused, "It is the most important day of the year! I can’t miss it!"

Before classes, Sarah went to her favorite swing(秋千). When rising high, she saw her best friend little Jack. She let go of the swing and waved to him with one hand. Unfortunately, she flew out of the swing and landed hard on the sand, breaking a leg and an arm. As she lay in the sand, she noticed a shiny thing on the ground beside her. With her good hand she took it.

When Sarah’ mother rushed into the ward she was surprised by what she saw: her girl was lying in bed with an arm and a leg in the splint (夹板), a broken nose, and blood stains on her second-best clothes.

"Sarah, look at you!" her mother cried. "You were hurt so badly and why are you smiling?"　　　　　　　　　　 "Look, Mommy, I found a diamond!" Sarah laughed.

It was the first day of class. Two of Tara’s new ESL (English as a Second Language) classmates wanted to know where she was from. They were both from Korea. Because Tara looked like Korean, one of the women asked Tara, in English, if she was from Korea. Tara replied, “No, I’m not.” Then the women took turns asking Tara if she was from Japan, or Thailand, or China. To each question, Tara answered them a simple “no”. Laughing, one woman said to the other, “She’s not from anywhere!” The two went to their desks, talking to each other in Korean.

The next day, the teacher divided the students into groups of four. The students in each group asked introductory questions of each other. A student in Tara’s group asked her, “Where are you from?” Tara answered that she was from Korea. The two women who had questioned Tara the day before were sitting only a few feet away.

“Aha!” they both exclaimed, “You are from Korea!” Tara smiled and said yes. Then she apologized (道歉) to both of them for lying the day before. She told them that she had not wanted to get into a Korean conversation with them. It had been her experience that many ESL students continued to speak their mother languages in ESL class, and Tara had not come to ESL class to practice her Korean. In her opinion, ESL students should try to speak English only.

“I agree.” said Rose.

“You’re 100 percent right.” agreed Jenny, “Rose and I must stop speaking Korean to each other. Right, Rose?” Rose nodded, and then said something in Korean. All three women laughed.

The next half a year, Tara became friendly with both women, although she never spoke a word of Korean to them during class or break.
