One fine afternoon I was walking along the Fifth Avenue, when I remembered that it was necessary to buy a pair of socks．I 1 the first sock shop that caught my eye, and 2 , not more than 17, came forward. “What can I do for you, sir?” “I wish to 3 a pair of socks．” 4 glowed. “Did you know that you had come into 5 in the world to buy socks?” I had not been 6 that, as my entrance had been accidental．“Come with me,” said the boy happily．He began to 7 down from the shelves box after box．

“ 8 , boy, I’m going to buy only one pair!” “I know that, but I want you to see how beautiful these are．Aren’t they wonderful?” There was 9 an expression of joy, 10 he were revealing to me the 11 of his religion．I became far more interested in him than in the socks．“My friend,” said I, “if this is 12 the enthusiasm from freshness, and you can keep it up 13 , in ten years you’ll own every sock in the United States．”

My amazement at his pride in 14 will be understood by all who read this article．In many shops the customer has to wait for someone to 15 him．When 16 some clerk does notice you, you are made to feel as if you were interrupting him． 17 possibly that very clerk who is now so 18 began his career with enthusiasm．The freshness 19 ; He became a mechanical salesman．

I believe in miracles because I’ve seen so many of them.One day,a patient was referred to me who was one hundred and two years old.“There’s a 36 in my upper jaw,”she said.“I told my own dentist it’s nothing,but he 37 I come to see you.”

Her eighty-year-old son accompanied her.He would 38 to add something,but she stopped him.She wanted to tell everything hereslf.I found a large cancer that spread over much of the 39 of her mouth.A careful examination later 40 that it was a particularly bad sort of cancer.

During her next appointment,I explained to her the 41 of the problem.She clasped my hand in hers and said,“I know you’re worried about me,but I’m just 42 .”

I thought otherwise.After considerable 43 on my part,and kindness on her part because she wanted to 44 me,she agreed to have me refer her to a cancer surgeon.She saw him,but as I expected, 45 treatment.

About six months later she retarned to my office,still energetic and 46 .

“How are you?”I asked.

“I’m just fine,honey,”she responded 47 high spirits.“When can I get started on fixing my dentures(假牙)?”

Surprised to see her at all,I answered 48 ,“Let me take a look in your mouth and we’ll see about it.”

I couldn’t believe my eyes.The cancer that had 49 nearly the entire roof of her mouth was gone—only one small area of redness 50 .

I had read of such things happening,but had 51 seen them with my own eyes.That was my first miracle.Since then I’ve seen many others,because they keep getting 52 to see.In fact,miracles are daily events for me now.And people are a miracle, 53 through them we have a chance to know ourselves and to 54 the miracles of one another.

Since my first miracle,I’ve come to understand that the time and place for a miracle is 55 we choose to find it.

One day while walking along the bank of a river, a rabbit couple(夫妇) saw a wounded(受伤的) ant lying unconsciously(没有直觉地) on the grass. The rabbit couple gently put the ant on the leaf(叶子) of a nearby plant. She soon recovered and saw the rabbit couple sitting beside her.

The ant remembered that she had found herself under the foot of a cat by chance and fainted(晕倒). She asked how she reached the leaf top. The rabbit couple told her what had happened. The ant thanked them and said she would help them when they needed help.

The rabbit couple went further up the river to enjoy the bright sun. They had been there many times and would spend many hours playing and relaxing in the sun.

One fine day, the couple were again on their way to the river while the ant was playing on the leaf of a tree. She saw the rabbit couple walking towards the river. A few hours later she saw the rabbit couple sleeping peacefully on the soft grass by the river. Suddenly she saw a lion moving towards the grass where the rabbit couple were sleeping. The loin saw the rabbit sleeping, and started walking quietly to attack them.

Realizing the hazard getting close to the rabbits, the ant jumped from the leaf to the lion’s shoulder and bit(咬) the lion’s back. The lion cried out in pain, waking the rabbit couple. The rabbits ran away quickly and the ant jumped off the lion’s back into the grass.

A white pigeon(鸽子) who watched this event cheered at the courage(勇气) of the ant and told the whole story to the rabbits. The rabbit couple were moved and thanked the ant. They became best friends.

With large and small keyboards everywhere, neither children nor adults need to write much of anything by hand. That’s a big problem. Study after study suggests that handwriting is important for brain development — helping kids get fine motor skills and learn to express and create ideas. Yet the time devoted to teaching penmanship in most schools has shrunk to just one hour a week. Is it time to give up handwriting? Have a look at the link between the brain and penmanship, and you may get the answer.

A test among students in grades 2, 4 and 6 found that they not only wrote faster by hand than by keyboard, but also created more ideas when composing essays with handwriting. And other research shows that the finger movements required to write by hand activate brain areas involved with thought, language, and short-term memory.

A recent Indiana University study had one group of children practice writing letters by hand while a second group just looked at those letters. Then, both groups of kids entered a functional MRI (核磁共振)that scanned their brains as the researchers showed them the same letters. Researchers found that the brain activity in the first group was far more advanced and “adult-like”.

Handwriting also affects other people’s way they think of adults and children. Several studies have shown that the same average essay will score much higher if written with good penmanship and much lower if written out in poor handwriting. These studies have also found that people judge the quality of a person’s ideas based on his or her handwriting. And the consequences are real: On standardized tests with handwritten sections, like the SAT, all essay that is considered hard to recognize gets a big zero.

Studies show that this isn’t only an English-language phenomenon. Chinese and Japanese youths are suffering from “character amnesia”. They can’t remember how to write characters, thanks to computers and text messaging. Some experts fear that Chinese writing and reading are so closely linked in the brain that China’s reading ability as a nation could suffer.

1..

What does the Indiana University study imply?

A. Children should practice writing letters

B. Handwriting can increase brain activity

C. It’s good for children to enter a functional MRI.

D. Letters should often be shown to children

2..

B. Handwriting helps a person write better essays.

C.SAT should be done with good handwriting.

D. Good handwriting makes a person seem smarter.

Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. Essays written with keyboards will get lower scores.

B. The quality of your ideas depends on your handwriting.

C. Chinese and Japanese youths don’t know how to write.

D. Less handwriting may affect China’s reading ability.
