One day a famous speaker gave a speech to a crowd of people. He held up a 36 bill. He asked, “Who would like this $20 bill ? ” Hands were 37 . Then he said, “I am going to give this $20 to one of you, but first let me do this.” He began to crumple（弄皱）the 38 . He then asked the audience, “ 39 still wants it ?” Still the hands went 40 in the air.
“ What 41 I do this? ” He asked, and he 42 it on the ground, and started to step on it. He 43 it up. Now the bill was 44 and crumpled. “ Now who still wants it?” Still the hands went up.
“My friends,” He continued, “You have all 45 a good lesson . No matter 46 I did to the money, you still wanted it because the bill did not lose its 47 . It was still worth $20. Many times in our 48 , we are dropped, crumpled, and stepped on, because we sometimes 49 wrong decisions, or we may 50 with something we do not 51 .When that happens, we feel depressed and think we are 52 . But in fact no matter what has happened or what will happen, you will never lose your value. The worth of our life comes not 53 what we do or whom we know, but in who we are! Don’t forget ‘the worth of a thing does not depend on its outside 54 , but on its inner value.’ This is the 55 of life.

One day, a poor boy who was trying to pay his way through school by sending newspapers door to door, was so hungry that he decided to beg for a meal at the next house.
However, he lost his nerve when a lovely young woman opened the door. Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water. She thought he looked hungry so she brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it slowly, and then asked, “How much do I owe you?”
“You don’t owe me anything,” she replied. “Then I thank you from the bottom of my heart.” With these words, Howard Kelly left that house.
Years later the woman became badly ill and was finally sent to the hospital in a big city. Dr. Howard Kelly, now famous, was called in. When he heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light filled his eyes. Dressed in his doctor’s clothes, Dr. Kelly went into her room and recognized her at once. From that day on, he gave special attention to her, and decided to do his best to save her life.
At last the woman was saved. Dr. Kelly asked the business office to pass the final bill to him. He looked at it and then wrote something on the side. The bill was sent to the woman’s room. She was afraid to open it because she was sure that it would take the rest of her life to pay for it off. Finally she looked, and the note on the side of the bill caught her attention. She read these words:
“Paid in full with a glass of milk, Dr. Howard Kelly.”
Tear of joy flooded her eyes.
