A man got a new car and he was very proud 1 it．One day, when he 2 back home, he saw his three-year-old son 3 hitting the new car with a toy hammer．The man was 4 angry that he ran to his son, grabbed the hammer from 5 , and used the hammer to hit the little boy’s hands too hard．The 6 boy cried out but his father didn’t care．
When the father 7 , he took his son to the 8 as fast as he could．Although the doctor tried his best to save the 9 bones, he had to cut the fingers from both of the boy’s hands in the end．
When the boy 10 in the hospital and saw his hands, he innocently(天真)said, “Daddy, I’m sorry about your car．” Then he asked, “but 11 are my fingers going to grow back?” The father 12 very sad．
Think about the story when 13 steps on your feet or when you wish to take revenge(报复)．Think first before you lose your patience with someone．Cars can 14 , but broken bones and hurt feelings often can’t．
People often make mistakes．But we should remember that forgiveness is greater than revenge． 15 before act!
When do you think you are an adult? Maybe different 1 have different ideas．
Now let's see what some American teenagers say．
Sam：In 2 idea, you are an adult at the 3 of 18．That's when you can vote．You can help to 4 who rules the whole country．That's also a grown-up does! My grandfather couldn't vote 5 he was 21．They changed it to 18 in 1971．
Jenny：I don't 6 it's hard to say．I can drive a car at 16, can't I? When you have a driver's license, you can 7 it to people to tell them your age for all kinds of things． 8 sixteen must be the age when you change from a 9 person to an adult．Because you can tell others you are not a 10 any more．
Suzie：Well, I think there is 11 wrong with American laws for when young people can 12 things．I can vote at 18 and drive at 16．So you would think 13 18 is a grown-up, even though16 isn't．But then I can't drink wine until I'm 21! If I'm 14 an adult at 18, how can people stop me from 15 a cup of beer in a bar?

Al was a potter (制陶工)．He had a wife and two fine sons．One night, his older son got a stomachache．At first, Al and his wife thought the boy just got a bad cold, so they didn't take it 1 ．But it was not a cold．It was terrible appendicitis(阑尾炎), and the boy died suddenly that night．Knowing the 2 could not happen if he had taken the ill seriously, Al was very 3 and was 4 of guilt．Then his wife couldn't stand the thing, so she left him alone with his six-year-old 5 son．
Al lost his two favourite persons．He felt no hope in the world and 6 to alcohol．Then Al became an alcoholic(酒鬼)．As he drank more, Al began to lose 7 he had－his home, his land and his work．Finally, Al died 8 in a San Francisco room．When I heard of Al's death, I thought he was a 9 and wasted his life．As time went by, I began to know 10 I once thought was wrong．I knew Al's little son, Ernie．He is one of the kindest, most caring, most loving men I have ever known．I watched Ernie with his children and saw the love 11 them．I knew that kindness and caring had to 12 somewhere．I never heard Erine talk much about his father．
One day I asked him, ‘ I'm really puzzled (困惑) by something．I know your father was the only one to raise you．What on earth (究竟) did he do to make you become such a special person?' Ernie sat quietly and smiled for a few 13 ．Then he said,' When I was a child, Al came into my room every night, gave me a kiss and said, “I love you, son．”
Tears came into my 14 ．Al had not left any money 15 , but he had been a kind, loving father, and he left behind a legacy(遗产) of love．
