The boy adopted the 41 ____ of his father and slipped a silver coin into each shoe. Then they hid behind a tree to watch the 42 ____ of their trick. After a while, the old man came back to his work and slipped his right foot into his shoe.

He turned the coin over and over in his hand, and gazed at it in astonishment. As he looked at it, he felt with his foot for the other shoe, which also held a coin. Then 46 ____ clasping his hands together, he fell upon his 47 ____ and prayed. The boy and his father 48 ____ from his words that his poor wife was sick and
49 ____at home, and that his orphaned grandchildren were suffering starvation, while he was struggling to earn a living.
“The kind helper has gone,”cried the old man, “without even waiting to be thanked. But 50____he may go, my blessing shall seek him out and be 51  ____him to the end of life. May God keep him from poverty, 52 ____ him against evil and ever fill his heart with warmth and joy, 53____ he has filled mine today.” The boy and his father listened to the most heart-felt words in the world, eyes 54 ____.

It was my first year teaching in a special needs class, and I wasn’t sure what to expect at our yearly Special Olympics sports meeting. My   36  had some challenges, from learning disabilities to cerebral palsy(大腦性麻痹).

When Mike, Andy and Lucas reached the finish line, they   47  and turned to look behind them. At the   48  of the crowd, determined not to be left behind, was Mark. All his classmates had   49  him. He was alone on the track with over half the distance left to   50 .

How to Become Cleverer
Once a boy came to ask a fisherman how to become cleverer, because his mother always called him “foolish boy”.
“That’s easy,” answered the fisherman. “I know one way to make you become cleverer.”
“Really?”
“Of course. It is said a fish head is good for brain. If you eat one, you’ll become cleverer indeed. Pay only three pounds for one fish head.” The boy paid him three pounds and the fisherman cut off a fish head and handed it to him.
A raw fish head is not good—not even for a hungry boy to eat but the boy ate it up in two gulps.
“Do you feel anything?” asked the fisherman.
“Not in my head,” said the boy.
The boy lay on the ground and thought. “One whole fish costs only two pounds. I had paid him three pounds for the fish head. Why couldn’t I have the whole fish for soup, a head for brain and one pound left over?” He jumped up and shouted at the fisherman. “You thief! You are fooling me!” The fisherman laughed, saying, “The fish head works now, you see.”

① On Friday, January 14, 2005, my cousin, Kara Rose, came into the world. ② She looked perfectly healthy from the outside, but on the inside, the doctors had failed to discover a serious problem. ③ She often had trouble breathing and then turned blue. ④ The doctors found that Kara had been born without part of her heart. ⑤ They didn’t think she would live long enough to leave the hospital. ⑥ When she was four days old, she had her first operation. ⑦ My family stayed together during this hard time, hoping everything would turn out for the best.
Kara’s strength and determination to live were strong. Eventually, she could go home. We all waited patiently for new technology that could give Kara a new heart. When she was eighteen months old, her parents took her to a famous surgeon who performed a series of operations. There was no guarantee she would make it through the operation, but she succeeded.
Kara grew stronger every day, and it was not long before she was well enough to be around people. She had an amazing character and always wore a sweet smile. When she fell asleep against my body, happy and content, I realized how valuable life really is. As I took her in my arms with her warm breath against my neck, I decided to live every day of my life to the fullest.
This child, who is 15 years younger than I, has gone through more suffering and pain than I ever have. I admire her strength and determination. Kara has taught me that no matter how bad things seem, they can work out in the end. Knowing this small, beautiful child has made me a stronger person, I now believe that difficulty can be beaten.
