¨arrived: `1982
¤(...)b ¨but ¨i truly fell in love with the city many years later, in the early `1990s, on my second stint, when ¨i wasn't quite sure if ¨i was meant to be here at all, and it was a quiet moment that did it for me, one of those little glancing shoulder-rubs that ¨new ¨york can deal out at any time of the day, in any season, in any weather, in any place--even on
l. `5
the fiercely unfashionable ¨upper ¨east ¨side.
¨it had snowed in the city. ¨two feet of it over the course of the night. ¨it was the sort of snow that made the city temporarily magical, before all the horn-blowing and slush puddles and piles of dog crap crowning the melt.
¨a very thin little path had been cleared on ¨eighty-second ¨street between ¨lexington and
l. `10
¨third, just wide enough for two able-bodied people to squeeze through. ¨the snow was piled high on either side. ¨a small canyon, really, in the middle of the footpath. ¤(...)b
¨i saw her from a distance halfway down the block. ¨she was already bent into the day. ¨she wore a headscarf. ¨her coat was old enough to have once been fashionable. ¨she was pushing along a silver frame ó`1.
`1. ¨a frame: here, a device used by people who have difficulty walking.
¨her walk was crude, slow, laborious. ¨with her
l. `15
frame, she took the whole width of the alley. ¨there was no place to pass her ¤(...)b.
¨as she got closer, ¨i noticed her gloves were beautifully stencilled with little jewels. ¨her headscarf was pulled tight around her lined face. ¨she shoved the silver frame over a small ridge of ice, walked the final feet, and stopped in front of me.
¨the silence of strangers.
l. `20
¨but then she leaned forward and said in a whisper: "¨shall we dance?"
¨she took off one glove and reached her hand out, and with the silver frame between us, we met on the pavement. ¨then she let go of my hand. ¨i bent to one knee and bowed slightly to her. ¨she grinned and put her glove back on, said nothing more, took a hold of her silver frame, and moved on, a little quicker now, along the corridor of
l. `25
snow and around the corner.
¨i knew nothing of her, nothing at all, and yet she had made the day unforgettable.
¨she was my ¨new ¨york.
¨still is.

¨tom ¨wolfe
¨writer
¨arrived: `1962
¨i arrived in ¨new ¨york ¨city at four in the morning feeling very romantic. ¤(...)b
¨i then headed off to the ¸¨tribune, just off ¨times ¨square, feeling more romantic the closer ¨i got to the paper. ¨suddenly ¨i heard this voice. "¨t.¨k.!" ¨those were my first two initials--¨thomas ¨kennerly. ¨it was an old girlfriend, and she said, "¨how would you like to come
l. `5
to a party tonight?" ¨the party was on ¨central ¨park ¨west, at an apartment that belonged to the p9t ¨robert ¨lowell, who had arranged a ¨summer apartment trade with people from ¨brazil. ¨there were these ¨brazilians, and the party was nice, maybe only twenty of us there. ¨all of a sudden the host said, "¨gilberto, can't you play something for us?" and the musicians started playing "¨the ¨girl from ¨ipanema."
l. `10
¨this destroyed my whole fantasy, which was to come to ¨new ¨york alone, ready to take on the city. ¨i wanted to be a romantic figure, but ¨christ, it was over the first day: meeting an old friend, going to an incredibly cosmopolitan party. ¨over the next few months, ¨i discovered how unromantic the things ¨i had once found romantic were. ¨being on packed subways became a real nuisance. ¨i would be walking down the street and
l. `15
a gust of wind would blow a greasy newspaper around my leg. ¨i remember seeing so many stars of movies and music walking down the street. ¨that was exciting, until it dawned on me that these people had to live ¸somewhere.
¨but it was a much safer city back then, before the late `1960s. ¨i took the subway everywhere and never thought twice about it being dangerous, whether ¨i was going to
l. `20
the ¨bronx or the ¨rockaways.

"¨she believed in every one of us": ex-pupils on their inspirational teachers
"¨so bloody cool, so engaging." ¨that's how ¨adele described her ¨english teacher at ¨chestnut ¨grove school in ¨balham, south-west ¨london, ¨ms ¨mc¨donald, when asked who had inspired her.
¨answering a question from the actor ¨emma ¨thompson during ¨¨itv's :¸¨an ¨audience ¨with
l. `5
¸¨adele on ¨sunday, ¨adele said: "¨she really made us care, and we knew that she cared about us and stuff like that."
¨images of the singer breaking down in tears when ¨mc¨donald surprised her on stage at the ¨london ¨palladium have gone viral, triggering conversations about the impact teachers can have on the lives of their pupils.

"¨my father passed away when ¨i was `14 and, during a parents' evening shortly after, ¨miss ¨coyle gave my mum a huge hug. ¨it was something that made me realise how much she cared about the lives of the people she taught.
l. `15
"¨even though she was a teacher and had a professional role to fill, it made me realise that it shouldn't stop you from being human, from being caring. ¨it's something ¨i think about in my professional career. ¨it's so easy to be the cold professional with your job, but actually caring about the lives, achievements and successes of people around you d9sn't hurt your job. ¨if anything, it makes you work better with people. ¤(...)b"

¨sophie ¨smith-¨tong, `37, a primary school teacher who lives in ¨london and the founder of a centre for educators and their families, ¨mindfulness for ¨learning, said her teacher ¨ms ¨rea changed her journey in education.
"¨we met at `13 when in a drama lesson she has dressed up a classroom as a police station," she said. "¨starting here, she has continued to inspire me throughout my life.
l. `25
¨she is the reason that ¨i realised ¨i could apply to go to uni and that ¨i had something to offer even though ¨i felt so different to all of my peers.
"¨she took me to perform my first professional theatre production at the ¨edinburgh festival at `16. ¨she believed in every single one of us and it gave us the space to fly our own individual journeys. ¨we are still friends `24 years on and she still has a major

¨the ¨logical ¨song

¨a miracle, oh, it was beautiful, magical
¨and all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily
¨oh, joyfully, oh, playfully watching me

¨but then they sent me away to teach me how to be sensible
¨logical, oh, responsible, practical
¨then they showed me a world where ¨i could be so dependable

¨the questions run too deep
¨for such a simple man
¨won't you please, please tell me what we've learned?
¨i know it sounds absurd

¨oh, won't you sign up your name? ¨we'd like to feel you're acceptable

¨le document iconographique est une illustration dessinée par ¨norman ¨rockwell, datant de `1934, qui représente un enfant et une femme.
¨le garçon, 1gé d'une dizaine d'années environ, regarde droit devant lui, l'air mécontent. ¨il porte sur la t2te une couronne de lauriers. ¨il est v2tu d'une toge blanche sur laquelle il porte en bandoulière une écharpe imprimée de l'inscription: "¨the ¨spirit of ¨education". ¨il tient sous le bras droit un épais livre relié, et dans la main gauche, une fausse torche.
¨la femme est assise sur une chaise derrière l'enfant, l'une de ses mains posée sur l'épaule de l'enfant et l'autre sur son bras. ¨elle regarde par-dessus l'épaule du jeune garçon, le sourire aux lèvres. ¨elle est habillée de v2tements sombres et porte un chapeau.
¨sur la droite, sur une caisse en bois, sont posés des accessoires ainsi qu'une bo3te en métal ouverte.
