This story is about magic, Christmas and the power of making wishes.

29、When I was in middle school, I met my English literature teacher, who was new to teaching. She was only 22 but she always did her best to make learning fun. She would give us a personalized mini notebook for every student’s birthday. I had this simple small notebook. She had filled the first couple pages telling me how much she loved having me as a student, how far she knew I would go, and other affirmations. It seemed small but for a 13-year old child who had a hard home life, it made all the difference.
In my Junior year of high school, in one English class, we were discussing a story when one student called Carl made a point. The teacher was dismissive (不以为然的) and said Carl was wrong. The next day, the teacher said he was wrong to dismiss what Carl said so quickly. “Let’s take a look at that again”. After the discussion, it became clear that Carl’s point was indeed unreasonable, but I was impressed the teacher publicly owned his mistake and did what he should.
When I was in grade one, my mother gave me one really awful haircut. The first day back at school after that, the kids picked on me horribly so much that I ran out and hid. The headmaster found me and took me back. He asked me to wait outside for a minute while he talked to the class. The next day we had an assembly (朝会) with the entire school and he walked up on stage with his head shaved completely bald and talked about campus bullying (欺凌). Twenty years later, I ran into him at the local college. I thought he didn’t remember me, but he said my name and the event. The man was and is a hero in my eyes.
【1】What does the underlined word “affirmations” in paragraph 1 mean?
