My name is Scott and I am 36 years old. I have spent most of my adult life doing an 36 job, so I had a very cynical (愤世嫉俗的) view of life and the world around me. I saw no point in trying to 37 my life or the lives of the people around me.
Two years ago my wife 38 me to return to school and work toward a career where I would find satisfaction. So I entered Long Beach City College to pursue a 39 in history. Last term I took a political science class. The 40 Dr. Rock had such a great effect on me. He 41 in the Air Force, worked in the U.S. nuclear program and served in the White House. When I asked another instructor 42 someone who was so overqualified（资历过高的）worked at a small community college, she 43 told me because he wanted to.
This 44 me, so I asked Dr. Rock himself why he did not pursue a better role in his career. What he told me has changed my 45 forever. He told me that by working at the college he would be able to 46 the kinds of students he believed would make a 47 in the world. He said that 48 the right motivation and support, the students he taught could become the future leaders of our country. He said that he preferred the inner city 49 because the students there showed the 50 promise and cared deeply for their education.
Dr. Rock paid attention to the needs of the community. He taught me how to care and 51 us to take part in our community in any way we 52 .
I thought that I was the 53 one that was affected by his lessons, but at the end of the term I found that the entire class had felt the same 54 that came over me. Dr. Rock taught us how to55 our country, our community and ourselves.

If you are human, you can’t help but experience times when everything seems to be going wrong. You must also _36__as if your life is completely out of control at times.

Recently, a professor of philosophy in the U. S. has written a book called Money and the Meaning of Life. He has discovered that how we 41 money in our day-to-day life has more meaning than we usually think. One of the exercises he asked his students to do is to 42 every penny they spend for a week. 43 they spend their money, they can see what they really 44 in life.
He says our relation with others often becomes clearly 45 when money enters the picture. You might have 46 with somebody and you think that you are very good friends. But you will 47 him only when you ask him to lend you some money. If he does, it brings 48 to the friendship that seems stronger than ever before. Or it can suddenly 49 the friendship if he doesn’t.
Since money is so important to us, we consider those who possess a lot of it 50 very important. The author interviewed some millionaires for 51 . Question: What is 52 thing you have discovered about being rich, because you are a self-made man? Answer: What makes me surprised most is how people give me 53 . I am nothing. I don’t know much. All I54 money
People just 55 making more and more money, but what is it 56 ? How much do I need for a given purpose in my life? In his book, the professor uncovered an important need in modern society: to bring back 57 that money is an instrument 58 the end． 59 plays an important role in the material world, but expecting money to give happiness may be 60 the meaning of life.

My mother often asked me, “what is the most important part of the body?” Through the years I would guess at 46 I thought was the correct answer. When I was younger, I thought sound was very important to us as humans, so I said, “My 47 , Mommy.” She said, “No. Many people are deaf. But you 48 thinking about it and I will ask you again soon.”
Then last year, my Grandpa 49 . Everybody was hurt. Everybody was crying. My Mom looked at me when it was our 50 to say our final goodbye to grandpa. She asked me, “Do you know the most important body part yet, my dear?” I was shocked 51 she asked me this now. I always thought this was a game between her and me. She saw the confusion(迷惑) on my face and told me, “This 52 is very important. It shows that you have 53 lived your life”. I saw her eyes well up with tears. She said, “My dear, the most important body part is your shoulder.” I asked, “Is it because it holds up your head?”
She replied, “No, it is because it can hold the head of a friend or loved one when they 54. Everybody needs a shoulder to cry on sometime in life, my dear. I only hope that you have enough love and 55 that you will have a shoulder to cry on when you need it.”
