It was a cold winter day that Sunday.The parking lot to the1 was filling up quickly.I noticed, as I got out of my car, fellow church members were2 among themselves as they walked in the church.As I got3, I saw a man leaning up against the wall outside the church.He was almost lying down4 he was asleep.His hat was5 down so you could not see his face.He wore shoes that looked 30 years old, too6 for his feet, with holes all over them and his toes7 out.I guessed this man was8 and asleep, so I walked on9 through the doors of the church.We all talked for a few minutes, and someone10 the man lying outside.People whispered but no one took11 to ask him to come in,12 me.A few moments later church began.We were all waiting for the Preacher (牧师) to take his13 and to give us the Word,14 the doors to the church opened.In15 the man walking down the church with his head down.People gasped(喘息)and whispered and made16.He made his way down the church and up onto the pulpit (讲坛) where he took off his hat and coat.My heart17.
There stood our preacher… he was the “homeless man”.The preacher took his Bible (圣经) and18 it on his stand.
19 , I don't think I have to tell you what I am preaching about today.If you20 people by their appearance, you have no time to love them.”

I do a lot of management training each year for the Circle K Company. Among the1 we discuss in our classes is the2 of quality employees(雇员)
“What has caused you to stay3 enough to become a manager?" I asked. After a while a new manager took the4 and said slowly, "it was a baseball glove.”
Cynthia said she used to5 a Circle K clerk job as an interim (时临的.) one while she looked for something6 . On her second day behind the counter, she received a (an)7 from her nine-year-old son, Jessie. He8 a baseball glove for the little League. She 9 that as a single mother, money was10 , and her first check would have to go for paying11.
When Cynthia arrived for work the next morning, Partircia, the store manager asked her to come to her small office and handed her a box. “I overheard you12 to your son yesterday,” she said, “and I know that it is13 to explain things to kids. This is a baseball glove for Jessie. I know you have to pay bills14 you can buy gloves. You know we can’t 15good people like you as16 as we would like to; but we do17 and I want you to know how18 you are to us.”
The thoughtfulness, empathy (同情) and love of the store manager show vividly that people19 more how much a( n)20 cares than how much he pays.
