When I was in primary school, I got into a major argument with a boy in my class. I can't 16 what it was about, but I have never forgotten the 17 I learned that day.
I was 18 that I was right and he was wrong — and he was sure that I was wrong and he was right. The 19 decided to teach us a very important lesson. She 20 both of us up to the 21 of the class and 22 him on one side of her desk and me on 23 . In the middle of her desk was a large, round object. I could 24 see that it was black. She asked the boy what 25 the object was. "White," he answered.
I couldn't believe he said the object was white, 26 it was obviously black! Another 27 started between my classmate and me, this 28 about the color of the object.
The teacher told me to go stand where the boy was standing and told him to come stand where I had been. We changed 29 , and now she asked me what the color of the object was. I 30 answer, "White." It was an object with two 31 colored sides, and from his side it was white. 32 from my side was it black.
My teacher taught me a very important lesson that day: You must 33 in the other person's shoes and look at the 34 through their eyes in order to 35 understand their view.

The smell of old, dusty books reminds me of my father. A greedy(贪婪的) 36 , he had many books, most of which went unread.
He owned books on 37 from medicine to history and to several sets of encyclopedias (百科全书). When I enter one of his 38 bookshops where he used to buy books, such as Powell's, I am 39 back to a time when the two of us were 40 . I saw him standing by a bookshelf, 41 through a medical magazine, or opening his wallet to pay for yet 42 book, knowing well that Mom would 43 him on "waste money on books and you will never 44 !" I can not hold back my smiling at his mixed feelings, and the impressive memories always strike me even today.
Walking past rows and rows of books in our study, I remember 45 , after the cancer struck, he came less and less and read fewer and fewer books. They became just part of the 46 , collecting only dust and 47.
Near the end, perhaps knowing he would never get to read them all, he gave almost all of the books away, 48 only a few. He treated them with an almost holy (神圣的) respect, 49 any crease (皱褶) or damage would destroy them totally. 50 was the man who would pay little attention to a huge 
coffee mark on a book, replaced by one who would burst into terrible 51 even at a small crease.
I have read a few now after he died, and each time it 52 a hurt in my heart. But I suppose it is a kind of quest (追求), because if I can take on his eagerness for 53, his cheerful smile for happiness, and his willingness to help others, then like a match in the darkness, I will bring a little light into the world. And if that light 54 others, maybe it will spread far and wide, 55 up the heavens. I think he'd like that.

Many older brothers and sisters have an irritating (恼人的) tendency to take charge, a habit 21 while growing up. We can easily see this
pattern in Martha, the older sister of Mary and Lazarus. She had a strong 22 to do everything exactly right and was 23to being in control.
The fact that Martha, Mary, and Lazarus are remembered for their hospitality takes on added significance when we note that hospitality was a social requirement in their culture. It was considered 24 to turn anyone away from your door. 25Martha’s family met this requirement very well.
Martha worried about details. She wished to 26 , to serve, to do the right thing, but she often succeeded in making everyone around her uncomfortable. Perhaps as the oldest she feared shame if her home didn’t measure up to 27. She tried to do everything she could to make sure that wouldn’t happen. As a result, she found it hard to relax a
nd enjoy her guests and even 28 to accept Mary’s lack of cooperation in all the preparations. Martha’s frustration (挫折感) was so intense that she finally asked Jesus to settle the matter. He gently corrected her attitude and told her that getting caught up in 29 can make us forget the main reasons for our actions. In fact, the personal attention she gave her guests should be more important than the 30she tried to provide for them.

Recently divorced in my 30s, I had no job and was on my way downtown on a rainy day to go to the employment offices. I had no umbrella, for my old one had 21 apart, and I couldn’t afford another one.
I sat down in the streetcar — there against the 22 was a beautiful silk umbrella with a silver handle inlaid with gold and bright enamel(珐琅). I had never seen anything so lovely. I
23 the handle and saw a name on it. The 24 procedure would have been to turn in the umbrella to the conductor, but I decided to take it and find the 25 myself.
I got off the streetcar in a downpour and 26 opened the umbrella to protect myself. Then I searched a telephone book for the 27 on the umbrella and found it. I called and a lady answered. Yes, she said in 28 , that was her umbrella, which her parents, now dead, had given her as a birthday present, but it’d been 29 from her locker at school years before.
She was so excited that I forgot I was looking for a job and went 30 to her house. She took the umbrella, her eyes filled with tears. I was only too happy to see her get back the lost umbrella, and get a job she offered me.

Mary seemed to be at a loss as to what is to live. One day the Spirit of Life came to her.
“What do you call the fullness of life?” the Spirit asked. “Oh, I can't tell you, if you don't know,” she said.“Many words are 21 to define it — love and sympathy are those in commonest 22 , but I’m not even sure that they are the 23 ones, and so few people really know what they 24 .”
“You were married,” said the Spirit, “yet you didn’t find the fullness of life in your marri- age?”
“Oh, no,” Mary replied,“my marriage was a very incomplete affair.”
“And yet you were fond of your 25 ?”
“You’ve hit upon the 26 word; I was fond of him, yes, just as I was fond of my grandmother and the house I was born in. Oh, I was fond of him, and we were counted a very happy 27 . But I’ve sometimes thought that a woman’s nature is like a great house full of rooms: there is the hall, through which everyone passes, going in and out; the drawing-room, where one 28 formal visits; the sitting-room, where the family members come and go; but beyond that, far beyond, are other rooms, the handles of whose doors perhaps are never 29 ; no one knows the way to them, no one knows where they lead; and in the innermost room, the soul sits 30and waits for a footstep that never comes.”
