I was sure that I was to be killed. I became terribly nervous. I fumbled (searched) in my pockets to see if there were any cigarettes, which 1 their search. I found 2 and because of my shaking hands, I could 3 get it to my lips. But I had no matches, they had taken those. I looked 4 the bars at my jailer. He did not make eye contact with me. I 5 to him “Have you got a light?” He looked at me, shrugged and came over to light my cigarette. 6 he came close and lit the match, his eyes inadvertently locked with mine. At that moment, I 7 . I don't know why I did that. Perhaps it was 8 , perhaps it was because, when you get very, one to another, it is very 9 not to smile. In that instant, it was 10 a spark jumped across the gap between our two hearts, our two human souls. I know he didn't want to, but my smile leaped through the bars and generated smile on his lips, too. He lit my cigarette but 11 , looking at me directly in the eyes and continuing to smile.
I 12 smiling at him, now aware of him as a(n) 13 and not just a jailer. And his looking at me seemed to have a new 14 too. “Do you have kids?” he asked. “Yes, here, here.” I took out my wallet and nervously fumbled for the 15 of my family. He, too, took out the pictures of his family and began to talk about his plans and hopes for them. My eyes filled with tears. I said that I feared that I'd never see my family again, never have the chance to see them grow up. Tears came to his eyes, too. 16 without another word, he 17 my cell (牢房) and silently led me out．Out of the jail，quietly and by back routes，out of the town. There, at the edge of town, he released me. And without another word, he turned back toward the town.
“My life was 18 by a smile.” Yes, the smile—the unaffected, unplanned, 19 connection between people. I really believe that if that part of you and that part of me could 20 each other, we wouldn't be enemies. We couldn't have hate or envy or fear.

　　I don't know what's your opinion about mountains.
　　It was only in the eighteenth century people in Europe began to that mountains were beautiful. that time, mountains were feared by the people on the plain, especially by the city people, they were wild and places one was easily or killed by terrible animals.
　　Slowly, however, people comfortably in the towns began to grow them. They began to feel looking for wild excitement, as their attention turned from the man-made town to the country; and to places dangerous and wild. So high mountains began to be for a holiday.
　　Then, mountain-climbing began to grow popular To some people, there is something about getting to the of a high mountain: a struggle against nature is finer than a battle other human beings. And after a difficult climb, what a reward it is to look down on everything within sight.

Several years ago, while attending a communication course, I experienced a most unusual process. The instructor asked us to list ___36___ in our past that we felt ___37__ of, regretted, or incomplete about and read our lists aloud.
This seemed like a very ___38___ process, but there’ s always some ___39___soul in the crowd who will volunteer. The instructor then ___40___ that we find ways to ___41__ people, or take some action to right any wrong doings. I was seriously wondering how this could ever __42__ my communication.
Then the man next to me raised his hand and volunteered this story: “Making my __43__, I remembered an incident from high school. I grew up in a small town. There was a Sheriff __44__ of us kids liked. One night, my two buddies and I decided to play a __45___ on him. After drinking a few beers, we climbed the tall water tank in the middle of the town, and wrote on the tank in bright red paint: Sheriff Brown is a s.o.b.(畜生). The next day, almost the whole town saw our glorious __46__. Within two hours, Sheriff Brown had us in his office. My friends told the truth but I lied. No one ___47__ found out.”
“Nearly 20 years later, Sheriff Brown’s name __48__ on my list. I didn’t even know if he was still ___49__. Last weekend, I dialed the information in my hometown and found there was a Roger Brown still listed. I tried his number. After a few ___50___, I heard, “Hello?” I said, “Sheriff Brown?” Paused. “Yes.” “Well, this is Jimmy Calkins.”
“And I want you to know that I did it？”Paused. “I knew it!” he yelled back. We had a good laugh and a ___51__ discussion. His closing words were: “Jimmy, I always felt bad for you ___52__ your buddies got it off their chest, but you were carrying it __53___ all these years. I want to thank you for calling me...for your sake.”
Jimmy inspired me to ___54___ all 101 items on my list within two years, and I always remember what I learned from the course: It’s never too late to ___55__the past wrongdoings.

My husband hasn't stopped laughing about the thing that happened to me. It's _1 now but it wasn't at that time.
Last Friday, after doing all the family shopping in town, I __2__ a rest before catching the train, so I bought a __3__ and some chocolate and went to the station coffee shop that was a cheap, self-service place with long __4___ to sit at. I put my heavy bag down on the floor, put the newspaper and chocolate on the table to __5__ a place, and went to get a cup of coffee.
When I came back with the coffee, there was someone in the ___6__ seat. It was one of those __7__ young man, with dark glasses and torn clothes, and hair coloured bright__8__ at the front, not so unusual these days. What did __9__ me was he'd started to eat my chocolate!
Naturally, I was annoyed(恼火). However, to avoid trouble-then really I was rather uneasy about him-I just __10__ down at the front page of the newspaper, tasted my coffee, and took a bit of chocolate. The boy looked at me __11___ . Then he took another piece of my chocolate. I could hardly ___12___ it. Still I didn't want to start an argument. When he took a __13__ piece, I felt more __14__ than annoyed. I thought, "Well, I shall have the last piece. "And I __15__ it.
The boy gave me a __16__ look, and then stood up. As he left he shouted out, "This woman's mad!" Everyone __17__ . That really made me feel silly, but it was __18__ when I finished my coffee and got ready to leave. My face went red-as red as his hair when I
__19__ I'd made a mistake. It wasn't my chocolate he'd been taking. There was mine, __20__ , just under my newspaper.
