I shall never forget the day when the earthquake took place. It was about 5 o’clock in the afternoon and I was   26  to my daughter’s school. Our plan was to go   27 together. I’d stopped at a   28  to get some fresh fruit. We like to have some fruit to eat   29  our swim. I was driving along a high road on the way.  30  my road was another road which was built like a   31 . I was hungry so I put the bag of apples   32  me and started to eat one.  33  I saw the cars in front of me start to   34  from side to side. Then my car started to shake! I didn’t know what was happening. Perhaps something had   35  wrong with my car. I drove a little more slowly and then I   36  the car and at the same moment the road   37  onto the cars in front of me. I found myself in the __38 . I couldn’t move. My legs and feet were hurting badly and I couldn’t move them. All round me was   39 But above me I could hear shouts and a lot of noise. Then I memorized what had happened. I had been   40  an earthquake. For about two hours nobody came. Luckily I could reach the bag of   41 , so at least I had plenty to eat. Then I heard people   42  towards me. A team of people had come to   43  if anyone was under the   44  road. I called out, “I’m here!” I heard a shout. Soon a stranger climbed to my car. “How are you   45 ?”He asked. “Not too bad,”I said. They didn’t get me out until the next morning.

He  29  you here because he thought you were the man he 30 . ” “What?” I said, showing my  31  . The owner continued, “He came into the kitchen and showed me a photo of the wanted man. I  32  say he looked very much like you! Of course, since we know you, we told him that he had made a  33  ”. “Well, it’s really  34  I came to a restaurant where I’m known,” I said. “  35  , I might have been in trouble. ”

I will never forget the year I was about twelve years old. My mother told us that we would not be  36  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  37  ?” Just when I started to  38  that there would not be a Christmas that year, three women  39  at our house with gifts for all of us. For me they brought a doll. I felt such a sense of   40  that I would no longer have to be embarrassed when I returned to school. I wasn’t  41 . Somebody had thought  42  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  43  Christmas there special and memorable, I  44   remembered the women’s visit. I decided that I wanted to create that same feeling of  45  for as many children as I could possibly reach.

So I  46  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 colorful packages filled with toys, clothes, and school supplies,  47   with a child’s name. We wanted all of them to know they were  48 . Before I called out their names and handed them their gifts. I  49  them that they couldn’t open their presents  50 every child had come forward. Finally the  51 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  52  up the room. The  53  in the room was obvious, and  54  wasn’t just about toys. It was a feeling—the feeling I knew  55  that Christmas so long ago when the women came to visit. I wasn’t forgotten. Somebody thought of me. I matter.
