  I will never forget the year when I was about twelve years old. My mother told us that we would not be 1        Christmas gifts because there was not enough money. I felt sad and thought ,“What would I say when the other kids asked what I’d 2      ?” Just when I started to 3        that there would not be a Christmas gift that year,three women 4        at our house with gifts for all of us. For me they brought a doll. I felt such a sense of 5       that I would no longer have to be embarrassed when I returned to school. I wasn’t 6       Somebody had thought 7        of me to bring me a gift.

  Years later,when I stood in the kitchen of my new house,thinking how I wanted to make my 8        Christmas there special and memorable,I 9        remembered the women’s visit. I decided that I wanted to create that same feeling of 10        for as many children as I could possibly reach.

  So I 11 a plan and gathered forty people from my company to help. We gathered about 125 orphans (孤儿) at the Christmas party. For every child,we wrapped colourful packages filled with toys,clothes,and school supplies,12       with a child’s name. We wanted all of them to know they were 13      . Before I called out their names and handed them their gifts,I 14        them that they couldn’t open their presents 15        every child had come forward. Finally the 16        they had been waiting for came as I called out, “One,two,three. Open your presents!” As the children opened their packages,their faces beamed and their bright smiles 17        up the room. The 18        in the room was obvious,and 19        wasn’t just about toys. It was a feeling—the feeling I knew 20        that Christmas so long ago when the women came to visit. I wasn’t forgotten. Somebody thought of me. I matter.

  When I entered Berkeley,I hoped to earn a scholarship. Having been a straight A student,I believed I could 1        tough subjects and really learn something. One such course was World Literature given by Professor Jayne. I was extremely interested in the ideas he 2        in class.

  I was speechless when my course grade arrived: A-plus. It was the only A-plus given. The next year I received my scholarship. I’ve always remembered Professor Jayne’s lesson: you alone must set your own standard of excellence.
