My tae known do (跆拳道) instructor stood in front of me, with the board in his hands. “Just tell me when you are ready.” he said.

I had to break it. That ___________ was ringing around inside my head. Break it!

I stepped back for a ___________. I got in a good stance (姿势), and then spun (旋转) around backwards, doing a complete turn, and brought my heel (脚后跟) up on the edge of the board.

The thin brown carpet was hurting my feet. The lights filled the room with heat. Everything was silent. My classmates sat there, looking at me. I had never broken a board before, although I had tried several times. Even a boy who was two years younger than me had broken one, and he always ___________ that I knew it.

My white uniform made small noises as I moved. The baggy pants and jacket didn’t keep me from sweating. I felt hot.

“OK.” I whispered, and with one last deep breath I kicked my heel ___________ the hard wood. I stepped back. The board was still in one piece.

My instructor said, smiling, “You have to go through the board. Try it again.”

I was ___________ people telling me to go through the board. They sounded as if I wasn’t trying!

I tried again. But again, I couldn’t break it. I hadn’t ever cracked (破开) it! I felt tears filling in my eyes. I wouldn’t make everyone disappointed. I wouldn’t make myself disappointed.

“Almost,” my instructor told me. “Try it just one more time.”

One more chance. That was all I got. “ I’ll show you, Mr. Board. I’ll do it.” I whispered.

I spun around. I kicked the board. I heard a loud cracking sound and then my foot went through the board! My instructor was ___________ the two pieces high and smiling.

One mom is thanking Target for an amazing reason.

Jamie Sumner and her 6-year-old son, Charlie, walked into Target last week to get some coffee. Their ordinary shopping trip turned rather special when Charlie, who has cerebral palsy (脑瘫) and uses a wheelchair, saw an advertisement in the kids’ clothing section that made him smile.

The advertisement describes a young boy around Charlie’s age wearing a sweater and laughing. Nothing seemed very out of the ordinary until Sumner saw that the boy in the advertisement was using a walker（助行架）.

“I stopped because I had never seen ‘our normal’ in such a place.” the mother of three children wrote in a blog post.

Sumner wrote that she started crying right there in the middle of Target.

“I watched Charlie watch the sign. And it was beautiful.” she wrote. “Yes, I started crying in the aisle. Yes, other people stopped and looked. And then they looked at the sign and they smiled. It was such an unexpected moment of connectedness among strangers in the middle of Target in the middle of a week on an otherwise ordinary day.”

She and Charlie walked past the sign three times before they went out of Target.

“It sounds like such a small thing, but for us it is a nod from the world that we are being supported.” she wrote. “It’s just the beginning, I hope. I hope more disabilities and special needs pop up in clothing advertisements and commercials and on mainstream TV. But for now, I am so grateful to Target for 83 .
