Question

The art of giving gifts is to give something that others cannot buy for themselves.
------A.A. Milne
I have spent most of my career as a traveling salesman. There’s1lonelier than having meals myself in a coffee shop. One year, my five-year-old daughter Jeanine gave me a2. It was a soft toy penguin with a hand –painted3saying “I love My Dad!” Tears came into my eyes and immediately, I gave it a4place on my desk.
Soon I had to leave on another business5. This time when I was6, I put the penguin in my suitcase. After that day, Jeanine always helped me pack with the penguin. Many years7by and that little penguin has traveled with me hundreds of thousands of miles all across America and over to Europe. We have also made many friends8the way.
9one afternoon after leaving my hotel, I discovered that the penguin was10. Frantically, I phoned the hotel. The clerk11, saying it hadn’t been reported. But half an hour later, he called back to say that my penguin had been found. It was late,12I drove several hours to get my little13, arriving near midnight.
When I rushed to the hotel, I found that it was waiting at the front desk. In the lobby(大厅), some14business travelers looked at us, I think, with some15and envy(羡慕). Someone came out to shake my hand. One man told me that he had even volunteered to16it to me the very next day.
Jeannie is in college now and I don’t travel17much anymore. The penguin spends most of its time18on my dresser­­­­­--- a reminder that19is the best traveling companion. All those years on the road, it was the one thing I never left home20.
