On August 26, 1999, New York City was struck by a terrible rainstorm. The rain caused the streets to 16 and the subway system almost came to a stop.
Unfortunately, this happened during the morning 17 hour. Many people who were going to work were 18 to go home. Some battled to 19 a taxi or to get on a bus. Still others 20 the storm bravely, walking miles to get to work.
I happened to be one of the people on the way to work that morning. I went from subway line to subway line only to find that most 21 had stopped. After making my way through crowds of people, I finally found a subway line that was 22 . Unfortunately, there were so many people waiting to 23 the subway that I could not even get down the stairs to the 24 . So I took the train going in the 25 direction, and then switched back to the downtown train. Finally, after what seemed like forever, the train 26 my stop. Then I had to walk several blocks in the increasingly heavy rain. When I finally got to my office, I was 27 through, exhausted and discouraged.
My co-workers and I spent most of the day drying off. When it was 5:00 pm,I was ready to go home. I was about to 28 off my computer when I received an email from Garth, my Director:
I would like to thank all of you who made the 29 and eventually reported to work. It is always reassuring (令人欣慰的), at times like these, when employees so clearly show their attention and devotion to their 30 . Thank you.

It was 4 o’clock in the morning, when I received the phone call.
“This is the emergency room calling and your son was just 1 in with severe burns on his face, neck and arms. We’ve called for a (n) 2 and are going to fly him to the burn unit in Seattle.”
Seattle was 350 miles from his college, so we knew immediately this was 3 .
The doctor described the accident, which caused the burns. At 6 am, our son and his friends decided to barbecue hamburgers. When they 4 the charcoal (木炭), it burst into flames because they had sprayed (喷洒) too much gasoline (petrol). The flames 5 my son’s shirt tail and shot from his waist to his head.
6 , one of the boys was quick-minded, grasped my son, and rolled him on the grass. While it saved his life, it was not in 7 to save him from severe burns and the terrible scars (伤疤). So, he had to return to college with scars.
When I was a child, my mother told my sister, who had a 10-inch, very 8 scar on her arm. “Ann, if you ignore the scar, other people will ignore it. It doesn’t mean they won’t 9 it, but it means it will not matter to them if it doesn’t matter to you.”
I 10 this wisdom (智慧) on to my son. He took my advice to 11 and returned to school with his head held high — glad he was alive.
By the end of the six-month waiting period, he decided that the scars did not matter, so he made the 12 to give up any plastic surgery (外科手术).
We all have “scars” that 13 people to keep away from us. And we spend a lot of time thinking that if only we looked differently, or dressed differently, people would like us better.
But you see, people will only judge you by your looks, or your clothes, if you are judging yourself by these same 14 standards(标准). Put your imperfections out of your 15 and concentrate (集中) on what you value within yourself, and your beauty will shine through.
