Jessie's Glove
I do alot of management training each year for the Circle K Corporation, a national chain of convenience stores．    21    the topics we discuss is the retention （保持）of quality employees -- a real challenge to managers when you consider the pay scale （薪水标准）in the service industry．During these discussions, I asked the participants, "What has caused you to stay long enough to become a manager?" Some time back a new   22     took the question and   23     said, "It was a $19 baseball glove．"
Cynthia told the group that she    24    took a Circle K clerk job as an interim （过渡时期）position 25     she looked for something 26   ．On her second or third day behind the counter, she received a phone call from her nine-year-old son, Jessie．He needed a baseball glove for Little League．She explained that   27   a single mother, money was very   28   , and her first check would   29   go for paying 30  ．Perhaps she could buy his baseball glove with her second or third check．．
When Cynthia arrived for work the next morning, Patricia, the store manager, asked her to come to the small room in the back of the store that    31    as an office．Cynthia   32  if she had done something wrong or left some part of her job incomplete from the day before．She was concerned and confused．
Patricia handed her a box．"I overheard you talking to your son   33    ," she said, "and I know that it is hard to  34    things to kids．This is a baseball glove for Jessie because he may not understand how    35    he is, even though you have to pay bills   36   you can buy gloves．You know we can't pay good people like you as much as we would like to; but we    37   care, and I want you to know you are important to    38 ．"
The thoughtfulness, sympathy and    39 of this convenience store manager demonstrates vividly that people remember more how much an employer 40    than how much the employer pays．An important lesson for the price of a Little League baseball glove．

The town I live in is about to put cameras at all traffic lights to catch people who run red lights．It   36   me of how many people I’ve seen who take the yellow light as a   37   to go faster．I also can’t understand why people don’t move when the traffic light has turned green．Above all, there are those   38   situations in which someone doesn’t even   39   that the light turns red, and just keeps going．That is why so many   40   happen! All these situations make me   41__    the purpose of traffic lights．
42   , it’s even more frightening to imagine letting people make their own decisions at   __43   crossroads．Do the biggest cars get to go first? Who decides who goes next? So I guess I do like the idea of a system to   44   traffic．And I’ll do my best to   45   the traffic rules: to go, to be cautious, and to stop when I’m   46   to．
It occurs to me that my   47   have done much the same for me   48   teaching me how to live．They have given me many   49   lights: to get along well with others, to listen and talk to them, to help others, and to   50   with joy and purpose．They have also given me some red lights   51   my life goes astray（误入歧途）: not to be greedy, to keep my temper, and to control my desires．And there   52   have been some yellow caution lights: to watch how much I drink, to keep control of my behavior, and to   53    school regularly and work hard．
If I obey these rules, my life will be as   54   as it can be．Just as I’m wise to pay attention to the traffic lights when I’m walking across the street, I’m wise to pay attention to the“   55__ signals” given to me by my parents．

One afternoon，my son Adam asked me, "Are all people the same even if they are different in color?"
I thought for a minute, and then I said, "I'll explain，26 you can just wait until we make a quick 27 at the grocery store. I have something 28 to show you.”
At the grocery store, we 29 some apples --- red, green and yellow ones. Back home, I told Adam, "It's time to 30 your question. " I put one apple of each 31 on the table. Then I looked at Adam, who had a 32 look on his face.
"People are like apples. They come in all 33 colors, shapes and sizes. On the 34 , some of the apples may not 35 look as delicious as the others." As I was talking, Adam was 36 each one carefully.
Then, I took each of the apples and peeled （削皮) them, 37  them back on the table, but 38 different place.
"Okay, Adam, tell me which is which. "
He said, "I   39   tell. They all look the same now. " "Take a bite of   40  . See if that helps you 41  which one is which.”
He took 42 , and then a huge smile came across his face. "People are 43 like apples! They are all different, but once you 44   the outside, they're pretty much the same on the inside. "
He totally 45 it. I didn't' need to say or do anything else.

“If there is one thing I’m sure about, it is that in a hundred years from now we will still be reading newspapers. It is not that newspapers are a necessity. Even now some people get most of their news from television or radio. Many buy a paper only on Saturday or Sunday. But for most people reading a newspaper has become a habit passed down from generation to generation.
The nature of what is news may change. What basically makes news is what affects our lives-the big political stories, the coverage of the wars, earthquakes and other disasters, will continue much the same. I think there will be more coverage of scientific research, though. It’s already happening in areas that may directly affect our lives, like genetic（基因的）engineering. In the future, I think there will be more coverage of scientific explanations of why we feel as we do-as we develop a better understanding of how the brain operates and what our feelings really are.
It’s quite possible that in the next century newspapers will be transmitted electronically from Fleet Street and printed out in our own home. In fact, I’m pretty sure that it will happen in the future. You will probably be able to choose from a menu, making up your own newspaper by picking out the things you want to read-sport and international news. etc.
I think people have got it wrong when they talk about competition between the different media（媒体）. They actually feed off each other. Some people once foresaw that television would kill off newspapers, but that hasn’t happened. What is read on the printed page lasts longer than pictures on a screen or sound lost in the air. And as for the Internet, it’s never really pleasant to read something just on a screen.
