I 40 these talks terribly at this time of the year.
41 ,I am so happy he shared with me the 42 of his faith. He was always so 43 to people,and I had been with him many times 44 we pulled over to help someone in need, 45 a smile and helping them get back on the road. So I was not 46 when he told me of the time when he was 47 in college. It was the end of the month. To make matters worse,it was Friday and he had no 48 in his pocket for the weekend. Payday was Monday and he had no gas money to get home to 49 my dad and no money to buy food but he had faith that helping others 50 helping yourself.
On his way home from classes that day,as he was driving along,he noticed a guy ahead of him 51 his lumber (木材) all over the road as he turned the corner. Mark 52 right over and helped him load the lumber back into his truck. The guy was so thankful and 53 his hand to Mark,and in it was one hundred dollars. Mark couldn’t believe his 54 . He told him that was unnecessary but the man 55 and off he drove.
I still think of Mark sitting there telling me that story, with tears in his eyes, and how faithful he was.

It was the first snow of winter—an exciting day for every child but not for most teachers. Up until now, I had been old enough to dress myself, but today I would need some help.Miss Finlayson, my kindergarten teacher, had been through first snow days many times, but I think she must still remember this one.
I managed to get into my wool snow trousers. But I struggled on my jacket because it didn't fit well.It was a hand-me-down from my brother, and it made me wonder why I had to wear his ugly clothes. At least my hat and scarf were mine, and they were quite pretty. Finally it was time to have Miss Finlayson help me with my boots(靴子).
In her calm, motherly voice she said, "By the end of winter, you will all be able to put on your own boots.” I didn't realize at time that this was more a statement of hope than of confidence(信心).
I handed her my boots and stuck out my foot. Like most children, I expected grown-ups to do all the work. After much pushing, she managed to get the first one into place and then, with a sigh(叹气)worked the second one on too.
I said, "They're on the wrong feet.”
She struggled to get the boots off and went through the joyless task of putting them on again.
"They're my brother's boots, you know," I said. "I hate them".
Somehow, from long years of practice, she managed to act as though I wasn't an annoying(烦人的)little girl. She pushed and pushed, gently this time. With a greater sigh, seeing the end of her struggle with me,she asked, "Now, where are your mittens(连指手套)?’’
I looked into her eyes and said, "I didn't want to lose them, so I hid them in the toes of my boots.”
