The other night as I was leaving my son's room. I noticed a hockey puck(冰球)sitting on his desk. It me not only of an exciting hockey game he and I had several years ago. but of a life lesson he had learned .
During spring vacation from school,a friend gave us two to a New York Rangers hockey game at Madison Square Garden. My son was very because he is an avid Rangers fan,so we attended it.
The roar of the crowd was right from the moment the puck was dropped. When the Rangers first, the crowd cheered. My son got caught up in the moment and joined in the crowd. When the Rangers scored a second time, it seemed as if the building would from the noise. Three young men in the row in front of us, probably in their early 20s, caught my as my son sang along with the crowd. They smiled at us. We were all one happy and excited hockey .
For my son, the victory was exciting. But that is not what he remembers about that night, that's not his primary recollection. After the winning goal had been scored,the losing team's goalkeeper the hockey puck out of the net behind him, and it into the crowd. One of the three young men before us caught the puck and, in one motion after catching it, threw it back to my son.
My son looked at the puck as if he had been given a golden . "Why did that man give me the puck?" I explained to my son that the man had given him the puck because he knew how it would make him to have a souvenir from the game, and not just any souvenir, but the puck that had been the goal in a shootout. It was obvious that he knew it would more to my son than it would to him.

“Two books per visit per week,” said the unsmiling librarian as she handed a library card. Neither the limits nor her attitude 16 me, a 9 – year – old Jewish girl growing up in Berlin in the 1950s. I needed those visits. The books were filled with stories in which, however 17 things seemed, everything 18 well in the end, 19 justice, bravery, and wisdom –--- a striking contrast (对比) to my everyday experiences.
Thirty years later, I, a recent immigrant to the US with a daughter aged 13, stood in front of another librarian. This librarian was 20 .
“What did she say?” I asked my daughter, who already knew a little English and often 21 as my interpreter.
“She said ‘Can I help you?’”
“Ask if they have any books in 22 ,” I requested.
“No, they don’t.” translated my daughter.
While hunting for a job, I was told that the library needed people to 23 books. The interview was short –--- the job didn’t require much English, just a 24 of the alphabet. I started the next day. Every day, I handled hundreds of books whose meaning was 25 from me, mentally dividing them by size and color. One day, while shelving, I found English for Beginners and began studying it on my own. 26 English letters started forming words I could 27 , words combined into phrases, and –--- oh, 28 ! –-- I was reading. It was a slow process, supported by dictionaries and 29 by tears, but it was progress. Afterwards I got promoted to the front desk ----- 30 books in and out and answering simple questions.
Every day I receive dozens of people. Sometimes I spot new immigrants. They come from all over the world, so they look different, but the hesitant expression on their faces and their 31 manners are similar. My heart goes out to them, 32 they are people like me. I fully understand the 33 roads on which they have stepped. “They’ve come to the right place,” I think to 34 . Then I smile and say – just the 35 a librarian said to me a long time ago –--- “Can I help you?”

I remembered vividly that the first English class in the last term of high school. We boys (there were no girls in the school) 36 expectantly for the new teacher to appear. Before long came a tall ordinary-looking man of about 40. He said shyly, “Good afternoon, gentlemen.”
