I will never forget the year I was about twelve years old. My mother told us that we would not be _34_ Christmas gifts because there was not enough money. I felt sad and thought, “What would I say when the other kids asked what I’d 35 ?” Just when I started to 36 that there would not be a Christmas that year, three women 37 at our house with gifts for all of us. For me they brought a doll. I felt such a sense of 38 that I would no longer have to be embarrassed(尴尬) when I returned 
to school. I wasn’t 39 . Somebody had thought 40 of me to bring me a gift.
Years later, when I stood in the kitchen of my new house, thinking how I wanted to make my 41 Christmas there special and memorable, I 42 remembered the women’s visit. I decided that I wanted to create that same feeling of 43 for as many 
children as I could possibly reach.
So I 44 a plan and gathered forty people from my company to help. We gathered about 125 orphans (孤儿) at the Christmas party. For every child, we wrapped colorful packages filled wi
th toys, clothes, and school supplies, 45 with a child’s name. We wanted all of them to know they were 46 . Before I called out their names and handed them their gifts, I 47 them that they couldn’t open their presents 48 every child had come forward. Finally the 49 they had been waiting for came as I called out, “One, two, three. Open your presents!” As the children opened their packages, their faces beamed and their bright smiles 50 up the room. The 51 in the room was obvious, and 52 wasn’t just about toys. It was a feeling –the feeling I knew 53 that Christmas so long ago when the women came to visit. I wasn’t forgotten. Somebody thought of me. I matter.

I’d been 16 for six days and was already prepared to deal with failure. I remember when my mum 36 me up that morning, her voice wasn’t as 37 as it usually was.
I stayed in bed for a few minutes. I was 38 to leave its warmth and comfort, and didn’t want to face the problem that I’d let myself 39 for the past six months. Finally, I dragged myself out of 40 .
I finished getting ready and tried to 41 . It didn’t work, so I decided that my 42 should go with me. We had a little time, so I thought we could practice parking.
