The poachers—illegal hunters—had finally found a buyer for their stolen goods. A meeting was 36 , and when the buyer asked to see the goods, they brought out a small duffel bag and unzipped it. Inside was a 37 one-year-old baby gorilla. The poachers had likely killed the little female’s parents a
nd 38 her in the forests of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, in Africa. Then they took her across the border into Rwanda, 39 to sell her as a pet.
But the buyer didn’t bring 40 ; he brought the police. The Rwandan authorities 41 the young gorilla to the nearby headquarters of the Mountain Gorilla Veterinary Project. The vets（兽医）there realized that she had not been given 42 food or water, but they were much more worried about something else.
“Baby gorillas simply don’t 43 without their mother’s constant body contact,” says vet C
hris Whittier. If they didn’t quickly establish a 44 relationship with the baby gorilla, which her caretakers named Dunia, she 45 not survive.
Dunia needed contact, but she resisted 46 at first, shying away from people who reached for her. Three caretakers worked in shifts, taking 47 holding her, carrying her around on their backs, and cradling her while she slept. 48 she became stronger, a month after she was rescued her 49 revealed the psychological stress she carried inside—much of her hair fell out. That was a delayed 50 to the combined traumatic experiences of losing her parents and being kept—with a poor diet—by the poachers.
After six months of loving care that included around-the-clock attention, a good diet, and a 51 home at the project’s headquarters, Dunia was looking and acting like a 52 , happy young gorilla should. “Dunia is sort of a shy show-off,” says Whittier. “Her 53 is growing and she’s becoming more independent, but when she is 54 , the first thing she does is run back to her 55 , just like she would to her mother.”

It was no wonder I was not looking forward to entering ninth grade. High school is well-known for being a battleground, where everyone seems to be 36 through physical changes, emotional mood swings, and low self-respect. For me, 37 was my punishment.
I had always felt insecure and out of 38 as one of the 39 members of my class, standing a head above the other girls and bending at the 40 of the line to avoid sticking 41 .

"Stand straight and tall," he would say, as I unsuccessfully tried to shrink (使缩小) myself. Moreover, each time, I would embarrassedly obey. Even at age 15, I understood that his advice was about 47 than just feet and inches.
My grandfather grew up in war-torn Europe. When German soldiers 48 his hometown, he wound up joining the Soviet army to fight 49 his country's freedom. "Stand straight, stand tall," meant something else back then.
_50 the war, he boarded a boat for 51 , and on January 27, 1947, he stepped onto the dock in Manhattan. He was hungry and 52 from seasickness. All alone in a new country, he was 53 about his future. Still, he marched head-on into the streets of New York. Soon he met 54 European immigrants, each of them trying to find his or her own way. If they could do it, why couldn't he?

Kindness is the golden chain by which society is bound together. However, I was not thinking about the golden chain when I had to help people who 21 their way and parked in front of my house.
I was growing tired of helping so many people. Almost every 22 I was awaken during a sound night’s sleep and had to 23 someone out. Many times I was 24 by some penniless motorists who did not even thank me for the helps that they received and some even complained that I could have done 25_ .
One day, a young man with a week – old beard climbed out of a 26 automobile. He had no money and no food. He asked if I could give him some 27_, offering him gasoline and a meal. I told him that if he wanted to work for me, he could cut the grass, but 28 the work wasn’t necessary.
Though sweaty and hungry, he worked hard. After working all day, he sat 29 to cool himself. I thanked him for his work and gave him the money he 30 . I then offered him some 31 money for a task particularly well done, but he 32, shaking his head.
I never saw him again. He probably thinks I helped him out that day, but that is not 33 it was. I didn’t help him. He helped me to 34 people again to repay their trust in me.

Because of him, I once again felt part of a golden chain of kindness that 39 us to others.
