In a nice house there lived an old man. Behind the house there was a big garden. He planted many plants there. He took care of his   41  all the time, watering and fertilizing (施肥) them.
One day a young man went by the   42 . He looked at the beautiful flowers, imagining how happy he could be   43  he lived in such a beautiful place. Then, suddenly he found the old gardener was   44 . He was very surprised about this and asked, “You can’t see these flowers.   45  are you busy taking care of them every day?”
The old man smiled and said, “I can tell you four   46 . First, I was a gardener when I was young, and I really like this job. Second,   47  I can’t see these flowers, I can touch them.   48 , I can smell the sweetness of them. As to the last one, that’s   49 .”
“Me? But you don’t know me,” said the young man.
“Yeah, it’s   50  that I don’t know you. But I know that flowers are angels that everybody   51 . We enjoy the happiness these flowers have brought us.”
The blind man’s work opened our eyes and   52  our heart, which also made his life   53 . It was just like Beethoven, who became deaf in his later life and wrote many great musical words. Beethoven himself couldn’t   54  his wonderful music, but his music has   55  millions of people to face their difficulties bravely. Isn’t it one kind of happiness?

Dogs like living with people. A dog can be a very good friend. He can do a lot of things for people. Some dogs help people to look after sheep, other dogs help them to find lost children. And some of the dogs can help the blind (盲人) do things.
Many years ago there was a very good dog. His name was Seeing Eye dog. Now we can see this kind of dogs all over the world. They are working for the blind.

Before a dog becomes a Seeing Eye dog, he must go to a training school for about three months. First the dog has to learn to sit or stay when he hears the trainer’s call. In his next lesson the dog learns to make his trainer across busy streets
The dog has many things to learn. And in every lesson he must learn to do one thing again and again for many times.
At the end of the training school he must take tests. When he passes the tests, the Seeing Eye dog will do the things by himself.
Now he can help blind people. The new master may be a man, a woman, or even a child. It takes the dog and his blind master about a month to learn to work and live together.
