13.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:

1.It would have been a success story if Fullerton High School senior Fernando Rojas,the son of Mexican immigrants whose schooling stopped in the eighth grade,was accepted to college.But the 17-year-o1d achieved a surprising clean sweep-he was accepted to every Ivy League  school.
"I didn't think I could get into any,"Rojas told The range County Register on Saturday."When I got all eight,it was a blessing and a curse because I had to choose.I was excited and scared and everything at the same time."
The first call came from Yale University in February.Within weeks calls,emails and letters followed from Dartmouth College,Brown University,the University of Pennsylvania,Cornell University,Columbia University,Harvard University and Princeton University.Rojas also was accepted by Stanford University and two nearby schools,the University of California,Irvine,and California State University,Fullerton.
He is one of four children of Raul Rojas and Mafia,who moved to Fullerton from Jalisco,Mexico in the early 1980s.
A national speech and debate champion,Rojas reasoned that if he applied to the eight Ivy League schools,he might get into one.Sal Tinajero,Rojas'speech and debate coach at Fullerton,told the newspaper that Rojas is a hardworking self-starter who thrives (茁壮成长) on competition."His biggest motivation for speech and debate was his parents to know that their hard work meant something,"Tinajero said.
After visiting several campuses,he settled on Yale,which costs﹩64,000a year with room and board.He is responsible for﹩6,000; Yale scholarships and federal grant money cover the rest.
He'll mostly take it easy during the summer before heading to Yale in late August.He's considering majoring in Latin American studies and perhaps a career as a lawyer or in international affairs.

8.My friend BJ Gallagher told me a great story recently,about her own experience with resentment (愤恨).She once worked as the training manager for a large newspaper,where she found the corporate culture extremely frustrating.The company was a hundred years old and their past success had blinded them to the need for change.Finally,after butting heads with several senior executives (主管) many times,she left the company.But she found that she hadn't left her resentment,frustration,and anger behind when she resigned.
"I finally decided to write about my experiences and my feelings at the newspaper.I wanted to be rid of that company and those people,once and for all.So I wrote and I wrote.It wasn't just a story that poured out; it was a whole book!We called it A peacock in the Land of Penguins.I was the peacock and those newspaper executives were the penguins."
"It took me several more years to finally get over my negative emotions.Through a lot of soul-searching and reflection,I finally was able to let go of my resentment.I came to see that there was nothing personal in the way they treated me,and they were good people doing what they thought best for the company.I was the one who had made it personal.I thought they were making my life miserable on purpose."
"Finally,the time came when I decided to make amends (弥补) for the sharp,angry things I had said about the company.I invited my former boss to dinner and made my apology.It was a great healing process for me.I finally felt free of the resentment that had been eating me up."
"What was the final outcome?"I asked her.
"Gratitude,"she replied."Not only wasn't I resentful any more,I was grateful to the company.If I hadn't had those painful experiences,I would never have written a book.And the book became hugely successful-now published in 21languages; it transformed my business."
