Amanda is a kind girl.People around her seldom see her get angry.Even her teachers like
her for her good character.People often ask Amanda how she does that.
One afternoon she invited(邀请)Miss White to her home.Amanda showed her around the
house.It was clean and tidy.When Amanda opened her bedroom door,Miss White was
surprised(惊讶的).On the large wall was a collage(拼贴画)of lots of colours and shapes(形状)!
“ Many people feel that I never think badly of anyone or anything,but that's not true.Just
like anyone else,I sometimes feel bad too,” said Amanda.
Amanda went on,“ It was easy for me to get angry some years ago.My father taught me
to make the collage when I was angry." Miss White looked at the wall full of small pieces of
words , such as “ fool ”“ pain(痛苦)”“ cheat(欺骗)” and other bad things.
“ This is how I started using all my bad times to make my collage.Each time someone or
something makes me angry,I'll put a new piece to my collage,” said Amanda.
It was on that day that Miss White clearly knew why Amanda could have an
optimisticcharacter.And then she thought of an idea−she would let her classmates learn about it.
We have to be the owner(主人)of our feelings(情感)so that we can make our lives more
wonderful.
