Those days I’ve prepared to complete my college degree. The last project was named “smile”, which required us to go out and smile at three people and   36   their reactions.
It was freezing. My friend and I went out to a fast food restaurant. We were standing in line, waiting to be   37  , when all of a sudden people around us began to back away from their position.
As I   38  I smelt a terrible “dirty body” smell, and there standing behind me were two poor homeless men. As I looked down at the short gentleman close to me, he was smiling and his nice sky – blue eyes searched for   39  .
To sit in the restaurant and   40  up, they had to buy something. When the young casher at the counter asked what they wanted to order, one of them said coffee because that was all they could   41  . I smiled and asked the casher for two more breakfast meals on two   42  plates. Then I walked around the corner to the table that the men had chosen as a resting spot. I put the plates on the table and   43   the blue – eyed little man’s cold hands with my hands. With tears in his eyes, he said. “Thank you”. I noticed that all the   44  in the restaurant were set on me at that time.
I returned to college and   45   a paper about this story as my project to the instructor. She read it and though highly of my project. Just then I realized in my own way I had   46   the people at the restaurant, my friend, the instructor, and every person that shared the classroom. I graduated with one of the biggest lessons I would ever learn unconditional acceptance.
Much love and compassion is sent to each person who may read this and learn how to   47  people.

Love Is Just a Thread
Sometimes I really doubt whether there is love between my parents. Every day they are very busy trying to earn money in order to pay the  36  tuition for my brother and me. They don't  37  in the romantic ways that I read in books or I see on TV. My father has a bad temper; it's easy for him to lose his temper.
One day, my mother was sewing a quilt. I  38  sat down beside her and looked at her.
“Is there any  39  between you and Dad?” I asked her in a very low voice.
My mother stopped her work and raised her head with  40  in her eyes. She didn't answer immediately. Then she bowed her head and continued to sew the quilt.
 41  at last I heard my mother say the following words:
“Susan,” she said  42 .“Look at this thread. Sometimes it appears, but most of it disappears in the quilt. The thread really makes the quilt strong and durable(耐用的).If life is a
 43 ,then love should be a thread. It can  44  be seen anywhere or anytime, but it's really there. Love is  45 .”
I listened carefully but I couldn't understand her until the next  46 .At that time, my father suddenly got sick seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month. After they were  47 ,every day in the morning and dusk(黄昏),my mother helped my father walk  48  on the country road. My father had never been so  49 .Along the country road, there were many beautiful flowers, green grass and trees. The sun gently shone through the leaves. All of these  50  the most beautiful picture in the world. The doctor had said my father would  51  in two months. But after two months he still couldn't walk alone. We were all worried.
“Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him one day.
“Susan,”he said gently.“To tell you the truth, I just like  52  with your mom. I like this kind of life.” 53  from his eyes, I knew he loved my mother deeply.
Once I thought love meant flowers, gifts and sweet kisses. But from this  54 ,I understand that love is just a  55  in the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm.

Everyone has experienced trying, but failing to master a difficult book that was begun with the hope of increasing one's understanding. When that happens, it is 36 to think that it was a mistake to try to read it, but that was not the mistake. The mistake was in 37 too much from the first reading of a(n) 38  book. If you read it in the right way, no book written for the 39 reader, no matter how difficult, need be a cause for despair(令人失望).
What is the right method? The 40 is an important and helpful rule of reading that is either not  41  or often forgotten. That rule is simply this: when reading a difficult book for the first time, read it through without ever  42  to think about the things that you do not understand immediately.
Do not be stopped by what you  43  understand. Read through the difficult  44 ,and you soon come to things that you do understand. Read these  45 .You will have a much better chance of understanding all of the book when you read it again, but that  46  you to have read the book through once  47 .
What you understand by reading the book through to the 48  will help you when you try later to read the places that you did not  49  in your first reading. Or if you never re-read the book, understanding half of it is much better than understanding  50  of it, which will happen  51  you allow yourself to be stopped by the first difficult part of the book.
Most of us were taught to  52  the things that we do not understand. We were told to find the  53  of unfamiliar words, and to try to find an explanation in another  54  for anything that we did not understand in the book that we were reading. But when these things are done before the proper time, they only  55 our reading, instead of helping it.
