I am a team leader in an insurance company. We are going through a lot of changes right now, which is 36 much stress for all of us.

Something happened that day to change my way of 39 and I am so appreciative of this young lady. I want to let her know that the small act 40 .

In the afternoons, the residents enjoy reading or telling stories to the children, and 44 a child is feeling sad or tired, there is always somebody attending to (照顾) him. There are trips out and birthday parties, too.
The 45 are enormous for everyone concerned. The children are happy because they get a lot more individual 46 and respond well because someone has time for them. They also learn that old people are not “different” or “frightening” in 47 way. And of course, they see illness and death and learn to 48 them. The residents are happy because they feel 49 and needed. They are more active and more interested in life when the children are around and they take more interest in their appearance, too. And the staff(全体职员) are happy because they see an improvement in the 50 and psychological health of the residents and have an army of assistants to help with the children.

Alice, my friend’s daughter, goes to an expensive private school where she has a friend, Jane, who is on a full scholarship at this school. Jane has 36 economic resources—her father has been dead for years and her mother works 37 a maid(女佣). Although her mother works very hard, she can 38 support the family. Jane is very bright and gifted at 39 and that’s how she has got the scholarship, which included a(n) 40 for things like lunch, school uniform and music lessons.
Alice became friends with Jane and would 41 talk to her at lunch. She did it that way in order to avoid the other kids 42 her.
On her birthday last month, she 43 her new friend to her birthday party, but Jane said she couldn’t come. Alice wanted her to be 44 so much that she 45 on her coming. Eventually, the girl said, “I don’t have any 46 clothes that I could wear at your birthday party.” After a brief pause, the girl remembered, “I have a 47 from my piano performance,” and asked, “Could I 48 a skirt from you?”
Alice was happy that her friend would be 49 to come and hurried home to ask her Mum 50 she could lend her friend one of her skirts. To her surprise, her Mum said, “No.” The daughter was very 51 and angrily said to her Mum, “ 52 I could, I would give my friend all my clothes.” The Mother didn’t understand why her daughter should have had such an outburst as she’s normally very well 53 .
Finally, Alice explained to her Mother her friend’s 54 . Her Mother immediately changed her mind and said, “Yes.” She also encouraged her daughter not to feel like she should secretly be friends with Jane but to feel proud of her 55 with her.

I got lots of interesting experiences in a free school. At first I couldn’t believe it. There were no 41 in rows or loud-sounding bells, nor did anyone have to go to 42 . Although we lived “in”, 43 made us go to bed at a certain time; there was no “ lights out”.
The 44 thing was that practically all the students went to class, and very few people stayed up late at night. Only the new people stayed up or 45 class. The new ones always went wild 46 , but his wildness never lasted long. The freedom took some getting used to. Our teachers treated us like _47 ; never did we have to 48_ “ stand up”, “ sit down”, “ speak out”. I don’t 49 one student who didn’t try his best.
The subjects were the same as those in the ___50_____ school, but what a difference in the method! For example, in botany (植物学) we had 51__ classes in the spring or fall, but instead we planted two gardens, a vegetable garden and a flower garden. Then in winter we each studied a few 52 things about what we had grown. In math the students built three different sizes of storerooms---small ones 53 , but usable. They did this instead of having lessons in the classroom. They really had a 54 time, too, designing everything, drawing the blueprints(蓝图;设计图), figuring out the angles and so on. I didn’t take 55__ . But I could do the basic things with numbers. That’s 56 .
57_ I think I am a 58 person for having gone to the school. I can read and write as well as anyone else of my age, and I think better. That’s probably a real big ___59 between the free school and the regular school--- the amount of 60 .
41.A.desks B. lights C. books D. windows
42.A. home B. bed C. class D. work
43.A. teachers B. parents C. nobody D. somebody

I told my friend Graham that I often cycle t miles to my company, but unfortunately there is a big hill on my way. He replied, “You are 1 .” He explained that I should be thankful for the extra exercise that the hill provided.
My attitude to the hill has now changed. I used to 2 as I approached it, but now I think that this hill will exercise my heart and lungs and it will 3 me to lose weight and get fit. This hill is my friend. I even feel sorry for those who 4 to go to a gym and sit on exercise bicycles 5 I can get the same value for free.
We cannot achieve anything with an easy life. Helen Keller was the first deaf and blind person to gain a university 6 . She wrote, “Character cannot be developed 7 . Only through experiences of trial and 8 can the soul be strengthened, ambition 9 and success achieved.”
One of the main factors of success in life is our attitude towards adversity (逆境). 10 we face hardships, problems and difficulties. We cannot 11 the adversity, but we can choose our attitude towards it. Douglas Bader was twenty-one when he had both legs cut off following a flying 12 .

Go to school, and join in all the games you can. Make up your mind, and you’ll succeed.”

Appeal to Emotion(情感)
My childhood left three months ago on a plane to Austria.
It was a day when my baby cousins moved away.My cousins were a fundamental part of my life; they were not with me,they were on my mind.They brought back the untroubled days of my childhood, games,adventures and silliness,but they also helped me from an at-times selfish teenager into a responsible adult.

There are two types of people in the world. Although they have equal degrees of health and wealth and the other comforts of life, one becomes happy, becomes unhappy. This from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, and events, and the resulting effects upon their minds.
The people who are to be happy their attention to the conveniences of things, the pleasant parts of conversation, the well-prepared dishes, the goodness of the wines, and the fine weather. They enjoy all the cheerful things. Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the things. They are, , continually unsatisfied. By their words, they complain about the pleasure of society, offend many people, and themselves disagreeable (不受欢迎的) everywhere. If this turn of mind were founded in nature, such unhappy persons would be more to be pitied. The intention of criticizing and being disliked is perhaps taken up by imitation (模仿). It grows into a habit, unknown its possessors. The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it are its bad effects on their interests and tastes. I hope this little warning may be of service to them, and them change this habit.
Although in fact it is chiefly an act of imagination, it has serious in life, since it causes deep sorrow and bad luck. Those people offend many others, nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most politeness and respect. This puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments. If they aim at obtaining advantages in social position or fortune, nobody wishes them success. Nor will anyone start a step speak a word to favor their hopes. If they cause themselves public objections (反对), no one will or excuse them, and many join to criticize their wrongdoings. These people should change this bad habit and be pleased with what is pleasing, worrying needlessly about themselves and others. If they do not, will be good for others to avoid any contact with them. Otherwise, it can be disagreeable and sometimes very inconvenient, when one becomes mixed up in their quarrels.

Wings of Angel
I used to hate myself because I wasn’t “normal”. Everyone else could play on the monkey bars and ride on a bicycle, but not 37 . I had a severe spinal cord disorder (脊髓病) and I knew I would always be much 38 than others.
I hated going to school and I hated people 39 at me. I hated seeing others smiling broadly and standing straight and tall. And most of all, I hated looking in the 40 and seeing an ugly hunchback (驼背).
My friends found me distant because I didn’t let others get 41 to me. I thought I was going to go on like this for the rest of my life 42 Angela appeared.
That afternoon, I was sitting by myself in a corner of the school — a spot where no one would 43 me. That’s when I first heard her voice.
“Hi. Can I sit down?”
I raised my head and there she was, with an irresistible smile on her round face.
“What are you looking at?” she asked.
“Ants.”
“What are they doing?”
“No idea.”
“I bet they’re playing games and making friends. Don’t you think so?”
That was how our 44 started and it didn’t stop. We talked about everything under the sun—the ants, the clouds, my situation — until it was sunset.
Then suddenly, she saw my 45 . She just stared.
My heart sank. What I feared most had happened and I knew for sure she would 46 me now.
She stood up, pointed at my back and said, “I know 47 your back is hunched.”
I closed my eyes like a criminal waiting to be sentenced(审判). I begged in my heart for
her to 48 , but she just kept on going. “I know what you’ve got in there. Do you?”
“No,” I answered weakly.
She bent and 49 my ears.
“Your back is hunched because you’ve got a pair of wings from the angels.”
I was 50 .I looked into her eyes and her kindness touched my heart. From that day on, I started to learn to 51 myself because I have the wings of an angel and a kind-hearted friend.

During the years of depression(萧条), food and money were very hard to find and people had to trade things with each other.
One day I was 36 some potatoes from Mr Miller. I noticed a small poor boy hungrily 37 a full basket of freshly picked green peas. Then I was 38 to see that Mr Miller sold the boy a bag of peas for just a marble (弹球).
Mrs Miller, who had been standing nearby, 39_ and told me that Mr Miller loved to trade with the three boys in the village for peas, tomatoes, and other things 40 he didn’t really need any marbles. I left the stand, smiling to myself, 41 by this man.
Several years went by. One day I learned that Mr Miller had died. I took part in the funeral(葬礼), 42_ three young men . They came over to Mrs Miller, hugged her, kissed her on the cheek, spoke with her and moved on, _43_ their eyes.
Our _44_ came to meet Mrs Miller. I mentioned _45 she had told me about the _46. She told me, “Those three young men above were the boys I told you about. They just told me 47 they appreciated the things Jim ‘traded ’with them. Now, at last, they came to pay their debt.”
“We’ve _48 had a great deal of the wealth in this world,” she _49_, “but right now, Jim wouldW#W$W%.K**S*&5︿U consider himself to be the _50_ man.”
Then she gently lifted the 51 fingers of her husband. Resting underneath were three red marbles.
At that time I realized that we would not be 52 by our words, but by our kind 53 . It is said that it takes a minute to find a 54 person, an hour to appreciate him, a day to love him, but an entire life to 55 him.
