I believe in miracles(奇迹)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 herself. 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(外科医生). She saw him, but as I expected,    45   treatment.

About six months later she returned 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.

When we talk about a bad man, we like to call him a “wolf”. But is it really true that the wolf stands for devil and ugliness?

Have you read the book The Wolf Totem(狼图腾) by a famous writer Jiang Rong which tells the story of the relationship between wolves and human beings? Have you ever   36   the wolves’ world? If you had, you would   37   the wolves.

In the book, wolves are heroes on the large grassland. They know more about   38   than humans. They can attack lambs without disturbing their mothers. They also know how to   39    full use of the shape of land to   40   sheep. I believe that if wolves were humans, they would be   41   experts good at fighting.

The wolf is a kind of special creature that can deeply understand   42  . Each wolf serves its group with its heart and soul. A   43   wolf has little power, but a pack of wolves   44   nothing. All the wolves obey the rules.   45   they are defeated, they run away together. It is their teamwork   46   makes wolves powerful.

The wolves also have great self-respect and won’t   47   to anyone. The writer, who wrote the book The Wolf Totem,  48   stole a one-month-old baby wolf and raised it very carefully. To his   49  , he found the little wolf still wanted to go back with   50   wolves. He bit through the iron chain that limited him. The wolf was   51   and he never gave in, fighting   52   his death. The little wolf died as a glorious fighter.

I was shocked by this kind of   53  : wolves are one of the most respected creatures on earth. I want everyone to look at wolves in a   54   way. They are our teachers. They show us how to survive and   55   in this not simple and dangerous world. Please honor the wolves, please honor all these heroes of nature!_
