Cheerful Charlie was a very special boy. When he was still in his mother’s tummy(肚子), she had had an accident, which 36 that Charlie couldn’t walk. But that had never been a(n) 37 for him; he had always been happy. When he became older, they had started calling him Cheerful Charlie because of his joyful and 38 nature. He really brightened everything up for those around him.
There wasn’t a postman, or a taxi driver who wasn’t 39 to see Charlie. “Cheer up, Mr Postman, that way you’ll 40 more letters today!” he would say, or “That was great, Mr Taxi Driver. You 41 that thing better than anyone else.” He also had great ideas and 42 for everything; and he shared them so 43 that, just about every day in that town, someone did a great job, or 44 something new, thanks to Charlie’s ideas.
One day, though, he came up against a real 45 . A young boy came to town on his holidays. He was known as Waterworks and was a real crybaby. No matter what Charlie said to him, Waterworks would always find some 46 to be sad: “I don’t have many sweets…my parents didn’t buy me that toy…” Everything seemed so bad to him. But Cheerful Charlie wasn’t going to be 47 , and he kept spending more time with Waterworks, 48 trying to cheer him up, just as he did with everyone.
Then, one day, when they were together in the street, someone 49 a pie from a window above by chance, and it landed 50 on Charlie’s head. He got such a fright that he couldn’t even move his lips. He was speechless, and 51 Waterworks was just about to cry, he 52 Charlie’s happy words so much that he finally said, “Wow, Charlie, that’s a nice clown mask (小丑面具) you just 53 !”
On saying those words, Waterworks felt so 54 that he finally understood why Charlie was always so happy and cheerful. He realized that he was so used to Charlie’s enthusiasm that he couldn’t help but see the fun 55 of everything.

Maja Kazazic thought she’d never walk without pain again before she saw the dolphin Winter with an artificial tail. For a long time, she had been 36 the injured dolphin which swam around the tank.

Despite her fear, she felt strong with her 38 leg.
Several years ago, Kazazic 39 her five-year-old cousin Jasmina because of an incurable disease. Kazazic swore she would honor the little girl by swimming with a dolphin, an animal that both girls admired. “Jasmina never got the chance to do it, ” says Kazazic, “so I decided that I’d do it for her someday.”
In high school, Kazazic 40 sports and planned to become a professional 41 . But in 1993, a bomb exploded in the school courtyard. The six friends she had been 42 were killed. Both of Kazazic’s legs were seriously injured.
In a temporary hospital, her left leg was thought beyond 43 and was cut off. “There was no anesthesia(麻醉),” she recalled. “They tied me down before giving me a piece of rubber to 44 on. I could feel everything but couldn’t make a sound.” Her wound became infected due to lack of medicines. Two years later, Kazazic got a new leg.
“After being in a dangerous war zone, this should be pretty easy,” Kazazic said before she 45 herself in the tank. She held out a hand to Winter, who 46 cautiously, then moved away. After a few minutes, Winter let Kazazic touch her back and nuzzled(用鼻子轻触)up to her shoulder. The two started an hour-long swim.
She would have shouted with joy 47 she quietly explained, “I used to feel like I owed somebody something, and now I’ve paid my debt.” Out in the parking lot, she made a joyful and excited cry until her voice was hoarse.

More than I realized, Dad has helped me keep my balance.
When I was growing up, I was embarrassed to be seen with my father. He was severely disabled and very 31 , and when we would walk together, his hand on my arm for 32 , people would stare. I would inwardly feel uncomfortable at the unwanted 33 . If he ever noticed or was 34 , he never showed that he knew.
It was difficult to coordinate our steps — his hesitant, mine 35 － and because of that, we didn’t say much 36 we went along. But as we started out, he always said, “You set the pace. I will try to follow you.”
Our 37 walk was to or from the subway, which was 38 he got to work. He went to work despite illness and nasty weather. He almost never missed a day, and would 39 it to the office even if others could not. A matter of 40 .
He never talked about himself as an object of pity, nor did he show any envy of the more fortunate or 41 . What he looked for 42 others was a “good heart,” and if he found one, the 43 was good enough for him.
Now that I am older, I believe that his idea is a proper 44 by which to judge people, even though I 45 don’t know exactly what a “good heart” is. 46 I know the times I don’t have one myself.
He has been gone many years now, but I think of him often. I wonder if he 47 I was unwilling to be seen with him during our 48 . Now that I am older, I’m sorry that I never told him how sorry I was for my feeling 49 to be with him in public and how unworthy I felt to be his daughter. I think of him when I complain about trifles (something unimportant), when I am envious of another’s good fortune, and when I don’t possess a “good heart”.
At such times I put my hand on his arm to 50 my balance, and say, “You set the pace. I will try to follow you.”

If you don’t pay for 51 , investors lose money. Then no one wil

Eventually, you may not have to bother downloading content to your computer, but just 53 it online, the founder said.
