A boy was born to a couple after eleven years of marriage. They were a loving couple and the boy was the apple of their eye.
One   36  , when the boy was around two, the husband saw an opened medicine bottle. It was 8:30 am and he was almost   37  for work, so he asked his wife to  38   the lid on the bottle and put it in the cupboard. Busy in the kitchen, the mother  39   forgot the matter. Seeing the bottle, the boy picked it up playfully and  40   the liquid in it. It was a medicine  41   for adults to be taken in small dosages (剂量). When the boy fell down, the mother hurried him to a(n)  42   where he died. The mother was terrified. How could she  43  her husband?
When the heartbroken father returned and saw the dead son, he  44   his wife and said just four words. What do you think those four words were? The husband just said, “I  45   you, darling.”
The husband’s totally  46   reaction was positive. Their son could never be  47   back to life,so there was no point in finding fault with the mother. Besides, this would not have happened   48  he had taken the time to put the bottle away.
The mother had also lost her only  49  . What she needed at that moment was  50   and sympathy from the husband. That is what he gave her.
Sometimes we spend time asking who is   51  , only to miss the opportunity to enjoy the  52   in human relationships we could receive by giving each other support. Why don’t we  53   someone we love for the “mistake” they didn’t make on purpose?
Treasure what you  54  , let go of all your anger,  55   to forgive, and selfishness and you will find fewer problems in the world.

When I was a law professor, a student reported that I made an error in grading his exam by giving him too many points. He was 36 , and after thanking him for his honesty, I changed the grade in my 37 . His beaming (欢笑的) face turned to shock. “You’re 38 my grade?” he said angrily. “I would never have come in 39 ……”
He didn’t finish the 40 , but it was obvious that his display of honesty was 41 . He thought he’d have it all—praise and the higher grade.
Several colleagues thought I should have let the higher grade 42 because all I’d accomplished was to discourage him from being 43in the future. And every time I tell this story some people agree with this 44 .
But I can’t see how I could give good reason for worsening my 45in grading by undermining (损害) the honesty of all my grades by failing to 46 an error. The grade itself would be a dishonest 47 of his knowledge and it would have been 48 to other students. How could I 49 give a student a gift of an unearned grade?
I know 50 reporting an error in one’s favor is unusual, but, like 51 too much change, it’s clearly the right thing to do. People of character, those with real honesty, hate to give up 52_ as much as anyone else. The difference is that for them a good conscience and reputation is _53 enough to give reason for the cost of doing the right thing.
Perhaps lowering the student’s grade did 54 him from being honest in the future, but bribing (贿赂) him to be honest so that he does the right thing when it’s cost-free would have _55 him even more. The duty to be honest is about right and wrong, not risks and rewards.

Dash of Hope
"Dash" is a symbol which represents every day we’ve spent alive on earth.Therefore, how you spend your "dash" is important.
Recently I 36 about a little girl named Hope.After learning more about her life, I couldn’t help but feel it was not by 37 , nor happenstance, that she had been named "Hope".The strong feeling of sympathy and generosity 38in her young heart made a lasting impression on me and countless others39 I never had the opportunity to meet her, I wish I had.It seems as though she was wise beyond her tender years and very, very special.
Hope was a twelve-year-old girl who was 40a "wish" in early December 2010 by the "Make-A-Wish" Foundation after being 41 that she had a rare type of bone cancer.However, when she found out that more than 150 42in her area were waiting for their wishes to be granted (实现) , she unselfishly used her wish to 43 that those children have their wishes granted.She also asked tW it be done 44 January 16, 2011.Unfortunately, however, the organization informed her that her 45 request could not be granted as the funds (资金) were simply 46 .They calculated that they would need to raise more than one 47 dollars in thirty days in order to grant her wish. 48 , but not discouraged, she turned her disappointment into an enthusiasm that inspired caring 49 to take up helping grant the wishes of the other children, and eventually 50 as well.Newspaper columnists and reporters for radio and TV stations 51 the story of this caring young girl who had 52 the hearts of so many and as word spread, the community was challenged.Committees were fanned and schools, corporations and various organizations assisted in53 money to help make Hope’s dream come true.
Her efforts were not in vain as they continue to help others, not only 54 , but spiritually and emotionally as well.At the gathering to celebrate her life, "A Celebration of Hope" on January 16, 2011 , the 55 was made that they had indeed received donations totaling more than one million dollars.Her wish had been granted!

When I said I was going to be the "Greatest of All Time", I 49 myself. And I still do.
But I didn’t know that my will would be 50 when I retired. In 1996, I was asked to 51 the cauldron(圣火) at the summer Olympic Games in Atlanta.
When the 52 came for me to set fire to the cauldron, I realized I had the eyes of the world on me. Then I heard an extremely loud 53 .

One cold night, I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco.There I was walking home around one o’clock in the morning after a 1practice at the theatre. With the opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines by heart. I was having 2handling my part-time job at the bank in the daytime and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about 3both acting and San Francisco. I had 4too much of city life.
As I walked down the 5streets under the tall buildings, I felt very small and cold, so I began 6both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers. Very few people were still out except a few homeless people under blankets.
About a block from my 7, I heard a sound behind me. I 8quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me 9,so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I 10what the noise had been. It had been my wallet 11to the sidewalk.
Suddenly I wasn’t cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back to where I’d heard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk 12for 15 minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.
Just as I was about to quit the 13, I heard the garbage truck stop to the sidewalk next to me. When a voice came from the inside, “Alisa Camacho?” I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened and out jumped a small blonde man with an 14look in his eyes. “Is this what you’re looking for?” He asked, holding up a wallet.
It was already 3 a.m. by the time I got into bed. I couldn’t get much sleep, but I had got my wallet back. I also had got back some 15of city life. I realized the city couldn’t be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other.
