We rented our upstairs rooms to the out-of-town patients of Johns Hopkins Hospital. One evening, a bad-looking man, who was even shorter than my 8-year-old son, knocked at the door; 36 , his voice was pleasant as he said, “Good 37 . I come to see if you’ve a room. I came for (a) 38 this morning from the eastern shore”.
He told me he’d been 39 a room since noon but with no 40 ; no one seemed to have one. “I guess it’s my 41 face…” I know why they 42 him away!

He told me he fished for a living to 46 his daughter, her five children and her husband, who was 47 in a terrible accident so that he couldn’t work. He didn’t tell it by way of 48 ; in fact, he was grateful that no pain 49 his disease, which was apparently a form of skin cancer. He thanked God for giving him the 50 to keep going. The next morning, the bed linen was 51 folded and the little man thanked me and waited for his bus.
Three months later when I almost 52 the man, we received packages in the 53 , with fish and oysters in it and a note 54 , “Thank you for having kept my father a night.

It was one of the happiest times of my life. I was 29 and had just received my bachelor’s degree, graduating with 36 despite working two jobs and being a wife and mother. My parents and five-year-old son were among the 37 when I walked onto the stage at Ashland University to get my diploma. I was so excited and proud to be starting a teaching career and contributing more to my family’s happiness.
But when I got home that evening, there was a note from my husband, 38 , “I have come to get my clothes and won’t be back.” We’d been having trouble, 39 that note still came as a shock. He had emptied our bank account. We were horribly in debt. I had quit my previous jobs in the hope of finding a teaching position. 40 , I was eight months pregnant.
The reality was so merciless that I was embarrassed, 41 , and angry and felt I had failed. But I had my son, and I was about to 42 a new life into the world. So 43 my deep sadness, I had to go on. The next morning, I woke up, put my feet on the floor, took a deep breath, prepared breakfast, and basically did everything I always did. I used my routine to keep myself moving.
And in the seven years since, I’ve continued moving forward. I got a job as a kindergarten teacher, earned a master’s degree in education, and watched my babies grow to 12 and 44 . I certainly have never 45 to put them through this, but in retrospect (回首往事), I’m glad it happened to me when it did. It helped me grow 46 , confident, and strong — things I’m now hopefully instilling in (灌输) my children. Sometimes life throws you a curve ball, hands you a lemon, or knocks you for a loop (gives you a shock). But knowing how to 47 failure can be the first step to success. This is my latest belief and strategy on how to win in the end.

In the doorway of my home, I looked closely at my 23-year-old son, Daniel. In a few hours he would be flying to France to 41 a different life. It was a transitional(过渡的)time in Daniel's life. I wanted to 42 him some words of significance. But nothing came from my lips, and this was not the 43 time I had let such moments pass.
When Daniel was five, I took him to the bus stop on his first day of kindergarten. He asked, “What is it going to be like, Dad? Can I do it?” Then he walked 44 the steps of the bus and disappeared inside. The bus drove away and I said nothing. A decade later, a similar 45 played itself out. I drove him to college. As I started to leave, I tried to think of something to say to give him 46 and confidence as he started this new stage of life. Again, words 47 me.
Now, as I stood before him, I thought of those 48 opportunities. How many times have I let such moments 49 ? I don't find a quiet moment to tell him what they have 50 to me. Or what he might 51 to face in the years ahead. Maybe I thought it was not necessary to say anything.
What does it matter in the course of a lifetime if a father never tells a son what he really thinks of him? 52 as I stood before Daniel, I knew that it did matter. My father and I loved each other. Yet, I always 53 never hearing him put his 54 into words. Now I could feel my palms sweat and my throat tighten. Why is it so 55 to tell a son something from the heart?
My mouth turned dry, and I knew I would be able to get out only a few words clearly. “Daniel,” I said, “If I could have picked, I would have picked you.” That's all I could say. He hugged me. For a moment, the world 56 , and there were just Daniel and me. He was saying something, but tears misted my eyes, and I couldn't understand what he was saying. All I was 57 of was the stubble(短须)on his chin as his face pressed 58 mine. What I had said to Daniel was 59 . It was nothing. And yet, it was 60 .

It was the end of my first day as waitress in a busy New York restaurant. My cap had gone away, and my feet 26 . The loaded plates I carried 27 to be heavier and heavier. Tired and discouraged, I didn’t seem able to do anything 28 . As I made out a check for a family with several children who had changed their ice cream 29 a dozen times, I was ready to stop. Then the father 30 at me as he handed me my tip. “Well done,” he said, “you’ve 31 us really well.” Suddenly my tiredness 32 . I smiled back, and later, when the manager asked me how I’d like my first day, I said, “ 33 ! Those few words of praise had 34 everything. Praise is like 35 to the human spirit; we cannot flower and grow without it. And 36 , while most of us are only too 37 to apply to others the cold wind of criticism (批评), we are 38 to give our fellows the warm sunshine of praise. Why so when one word of praise can bring such 39 ?”
It’s strange how chary (吝啬的) we are about praising. Perhaps it’s 40 few of us know how to accept it. It’s 41 rewarding to give praise in 42 in which an effort generally goes unnoticed or unmentioned. An artist gets admiration for a wonderful picture, a cook for a 43 meal. But do you ever tell your laundry manager how pleased you are when the shirts are 44 just right? In fact, to give praise 45 one nothing but a moment’s thought and moment’s effort.

There is one thing better than making a new friend, and that is keeping an old one.
——Elmer G Letterman
Two years ago my family moved. The day we left, my best friend and I cried together in my 36 bedroom for hours. I was miserable during the five-hour car ride to my new house. Life was 37 .
On the first day of school, I called my best friend to tell her how it had gone. Then on Halloween, I sent her a letter and a picture of my new friends and me.
Finally, she wrote me a letter. It wasn’t 38 a letter—a piece of paper saying, “Best friends forever”.
When I finally got her e-mail address, I e-mailed her the 39 letter I have ever written. After the third e-mail with no 40 , my messages grew shorter and shorter. 41 each passing day, my 42 grew.I never received a reply from her.
Mom said that I 43 try calling my other friends, and that I didn’t need to always call her. 44 my best friend, the girl that I had known from my childhood?
My first 45 was automatic.“No way!” But after five more e-mail messages, I started to consider what my mom had 46 .Every night for about a week, I stayed up in bed, 47 , “Should I keep trying or...?”
The way I looked at it was that: if I’m her best friend, she’d 48 a minute to push a few buttons on the phone, or type a short “hello” on the computer. To me, keeping in touch is part of being a friend and it is important. To her, it really didn’t seem to 49 .
After two years of 50 , I finally got a phone call from her—my best friend. It was a big 51 .She told me how sorry she was for not writing, and about how busy she had been. I forgot about everything that had happened and how annoyed I had been with her.I 52 her.I guess keeping in touch just isn’t her 53 .
I have realized true friends never really lose their special 54 .Even after two years, it felt like we had just talked yesterday.

Laughter and tears are part of living. But do you find enough time for laughter? I am not asking if you 21 lost of good times. 22 we should laugh during the happy times. But do you also laugh during the 23 times?
Eram Bombeck is known for her humorous books, but she wrote one that 24 a more serious topic: 25 in children. Erma talks with many children with cancer and learns 26 life lessons from them. She learns, for instance, that cancer survivors know how to 27 .
She 28 the experience of 15-year-old Jessica from Burlinton. Jessica’s leg was cut off at the knee because of cancer. She was learning to 29 a prosthesis(假肢). Jessica tells about playing 30 . She kicked the ball 31 and it flew off in one 32 while her artificial leg flew into another. She fell on the 33 and laughed.
Jessica may not have laughed about her cancer, but she laughed about handling the 34 of it. And her laughter helped her a deal.
There is the story of 17-year-old Betsy. She 35 her way to the radiation room for her regular radiation therapy(化疗). As 36 , she dropped her hospital gown and, wearing only her birthday suit, 37 onto the table and waited. The extra people in the room were not the medical students she had thought, but 38 painters giving an estimate on painting! Betsy laughed heartily about the incident. And like Jessica, her 39 to laugh helped her to deal with one of the most difficult thing a young person can endure-cancer.
Do you find plenty of 40 for laughter? You can…if you also find reasons to laugh during the especially difficult times.
Survivors know how to laugh. If you can laugh even when the going is rough, you’ll make it. And you’ll smile at the end.

The sun was shining when I got on No. 151 bus. We passengers sat jammed in heavy clothes. No one 36 . That’s one of the unwritten rules 37 we see the same faces every day, we prefer to 38 behind our newspapers. People who sit so close together are using them to keep 39 distance.
As the bus came near the Mile, a 40 suddenly rang out, “Attention! This is your 41 speaking.” We looked at the back of the driver’s head. “Put your 42 down, all of you.” The papers came down. “Now, turn and 43 the person next to you.”
Surprisingly we all did it. Still no one smiled. I faced an old woman. I saw her 44 every day. We waited for the next 45 from the driver. “Now repeat after me. Good morning, neighbor!”
But our voices were a little 46 . For many of us, this was the 47 word we had spoken that day. When we said them together, like 48 to people beside us, we couldn’t help 49 . There was the feeling of relief. Moreover, there was the sense of ice being 50 . To say the three words was not so 51 after all.
The bus driver said nothing more. He didn’t 52 to. Not a single newspaper went back up. I heard laughter, a 53 sound I had never heard before in this bus.
When I 54 my stop, I said goodbye to my seatmate, and then 55 the bus. That day I was starting happily.

As a physician who travels quite a lot, I spend a lot of time on planes listening for that dreaded “Is there a doctor on board?” announcement. I’ve been 36 only once-for a woman who had merely fainted. But the 37 made me quite curious about how 38 this kind of thing happens.

So 41 the New England Journal of Medicine last week 42 a study about in-flight medical events, I 43 it with interest.
The study estimated that there are a(n) 44 of 30 in-flight medical emergencies on U.S. flights every day. Most of them are not 45 ; fainting and dizziness are the most frequent complaints. 46 13% of them-roughly four a day-are serious enough to 47 a pilot to change course. The most common of the serious emergencies 48 heart trouble, strokes, and difficult breathing.
Let’s face it: plane rides are 49 . For starters, cabin pressures at high altitudes are set at roughly 50 they would be if you lived at 5,000 to 8,000 feet above sea level. Most people can tolerate these pressures pretty 51 , but passengers with heart disease 52 experience chest pains as a result of the reduced amount of oxygen flowing through their blood. 53 common in-flight problem is deep venous thrombosis(血栓)-the so-called economy class syndrome(综合症). 54 happens, don’t panic. Things are getting better on the in-flight emergency front. Thanks to more recent legislation(立法), flights with at 55 one attendant are starting to install emergency medical equipments to treat heart attacks.

But by continually reminding ourselves of our intention to be creators, we can transform our life.
