Let me take you back a couple of years. Come with me as we relearn a lesson, one that has stuck with me, in my present memory, and   36   me yet. We walked into Elida Road Hardware, an old-fashioned hardware    37___ . No automatic door, not a computer in the building. It was one that I went to fairly often. As we entered the door, two sounds    38   us. The sleigh bells of last year made that sweet, peaceful tinkle as we opened the door. The other sound was the electronic beeper that reminded Andy of our   39    .

 “Good afternoon, Ryan,”     40     the cheerful greeting. Andy was a very   41    sort of owner. He was of medium build and height, and the smile on his face welcomed us.

We walked across the old wood floor. Andy asked us what he could help us with. I told him we were      42    a spring(弹簧). He very patiently replied, “l have lots of springs. You’re going to need to be more specific.”

“Just a spring for an old-fashioned screen door.”

“That’s it. A screen door spring, right down there. ” We   43   where he was pointing, and sure enough, there they were. And knew his store, and his products. That was why I came here instead of Meijer. The service couldn’t be beaten. The price; Yes. But service and   44    ;No.

I picked up one and followed him to the    45   .

He figured up the price, doing the math in his head, “ $1.88,with tax comes to $1. 99. ”

 “ Put it on my dad’s account. ”

He nodded and smiled, “ Good dad’s account. ” He smiled. “I don’t know what you boys would do    46    dad’s account! ”

He handed me the ticket and as I    47    it, I asked, “You really trust my signature?”

His reply surprised,_   48    delighted me. “ When I can’t trust Jerry Hoover’s boys, I can trust nobody! ”

We left, and the brain immediately started to forget things, in order of importance. But what Andy said that day rang in my ears. And it rings in my ears today. That’s a tall order to live up to. It’s a high standard of    49    .My father made a fame for that name, and I get to enjoy the benefits. But on account of this, I must maintain that fame. And that’s     50     business.

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.

Pete Richards was the loneliest man in town on the day that little Jean Grace opened the door of his shop.

         Pete's grandfather had owned the shop until his death. Then the shop became Pete's. The front window was full of beautiful old things: jewelry of a hundred years ago, gold and silver boxes, carved figures from China and Japan and other nations.

         On this winter afternoon, a child stood there, her face close to the window. With large and serious eyes, she studied each piece in the window. Then, looking pleased, she stepped back from the window and went into the shop. Pete himself stood behind the counter. His eyes were cold as he looked at the small girl. “Please,” she began, “would you let me look at the pretty string of blue beads in the window?” Pete took the string of blue beads from the window. The beads were beautiful against his hand as he held the necklace up for her to see.

         “They are just right,” said the child as though she were alone with the beads. “Will you wrap them up in pretty paper for me, please? I've been looking for a really wonderful Christmas present for my sister.”

         “How much money do you have?” asked Pete.

         She put a handful of pennies on the counter. “This is all I have,” she explained simply. “I've been saving the money for my sister's present.”

         Pete looked at her, his eyes thoughtful. Then he carefully closed his hand over the price mark on the necklace so that she could not see it. How could he tell her the price? The happy look in her big blue eyes struck him like the pain of an old wound.

         “Just a minute,” he said and went to the back of the shop. “What's your name?” he called out. He was very busy about something.

         “Jean Grace,” answered the child.

         When Pete returned to the front of the shop, he held a package in his hand. It was wrapped in pretty Christmas paper.

         “There you are,” he said. “Don't lose it on the way home.”

         She smiled happily at him as she ran out of the door. Through the window he watched her go. He felt more alone than ever.

         Something about Jean Grace and her string of beads had made him feel once more the pain of his old grief. The child's hair was as yellow as the sunlight; her eyes were as blue as the sea. Once upon a time, Pete had loved a girl with hair of that same yellow and with eyes just as blue. And the necklace of blue stones had been meant for her.

         But one rainy night, a car had gone off the road and struck the girl. After she died, Pete felt that he had nothing left in the world except his grief. The blue eyes of Jean Grace brought him out of that world of self-pity and made him remember again all that he had lost. The pain of remembering was so great that Pete wanted to run away from the happy Christmas shoppers who came to look at his beautiful old things during the next ten days.

         When the last shopper had gone, late on Christmas Eve, the door opened and a young woman came in. Pete could not understand it, but he felt that he had seen her before. Her hair was sunlight yellow and her eyes were sea-blue. Without speaking, she put on the counter a package wrapped in pretty Christmas paper. When Pete opened the package, the string of blue beads lay again before him.

         “Did this come from your shop?” she asked.

         Pete looked at her with eyes no longer cold. “Yes, it did,” he said.

         “Are the stones real?”

         “Yes. They aren't the best turquoise(绿松石), but they are real.”

         “Can you remember to whom you sold them?”

         “She was a small girl. Her name was Jean. She wanted them for her sister's Christmas present.”

         “How much were they?”

         “I can't tell you that,” he said. “The seller never tells anyone else what a buyer pays.”

         “But Jean has never had more than a few pennies. How could she pay for them?”

         “She paid the biggest price one can ever pay,” he said.

         For a moment there was no sound in the little shop. Then somewhere in the city, church bells began to ring. It was midnight and the beginning of another Christmas Day.

         “But why did you do it?” the girl asked.

         Pete put the package into her hands.

         “There is no one else to whom I can give a Christmas present,” he said. “It is already Christmas morning. Will you let me take you to your home? I would like to wish you a Merry Christmas at your door.”

         And so, to the sound of many bells, Pete Richards and a girl whose name he had not yet learned walked out into the hope and happiness of a new Christmas Day.

Not long before,my daughler,s shoes were scratched(划破)with a knife.She burst illto

tears。I took them to the shoemakel,s.

The young apprentice(学徒)glanced at the   21   and said,“Nothing I can do except

22   the upper.”

His master looked at them and said,“If you   23   me,1 will add more scratches on both the shoes.”

1 was  24  and asked why.

I didn’t fully understand him,  26  I deeided to leave thc shoes。

Two days later i dropped by from work to   27  the shoes.  I found more scratches on each

Another time,my sister,s blouse was torn,leaving a large opening.My wife checked it

Three days later,seeing it again,1 was greatly 32 :all the tom parts took on a look of

ice crystal(水晶);attached to it was a snowman made of flowery rags.I sighed with  33.

“It,s amazing!”
