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’s 36 lonelier than having meals myself in a coffee shop. One year, my five-year-old daughter Jeanine gave me a 37 . It was a soft toy penguin with a hand –painted 38 saying “I love My Dad!” Tears came into my eyes and immediately, I gave it a 39 place on my desk.
Soon I had to leave on another business 40 . This time when I was 41 , I put the penguin in my suitcase. After that day, Jeanine always helped me pack with the penguin. Many years 42 by 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 friends 43 the way.
44 one afternoon after leaving my hotel, I discovered that the penguin was 45 . Frantically, I phoned the hotel. The clerk 46 , 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, 47 I drove several hours to get my little 48 , arriving near midnight.
When I rushed to the hotel, I found that it was waiting at the front desk. In the lobby(大厅), some 49 business travelers looked at us, I think, with some 50 and envy(羡慕). Someone came out to shake my hand. One man told me that he had even volunteered to 51 it to me the very next day.
Jeannie is in college now and I don’t travel 52 much anymore. The penguin spends most of its time 53 on my dresser--- a reminder that 54 is the best traveling companion. All those years on the road, it was the one thing I never left home 55 .

My father was raised in a fatherless home at a time when the family of five struggled to survive, which caused my father to be extremely tightfisted(吝啬) with money.
When we children became 16 that other children got pocket money from their parents, we made a(n) 17 to ask our father from some. Immediately his face turned stone-cold, and he said, “If you’re old enough to ask, you’re old enough to 18 .” And we had to seek odd jobs about the neighborhood.
He didn’t 19 his attitude as we grew into adulthood. There was a time when 20 of us had a car, so we had to ride a 21 whenever we came home. Though the bus stopped about two miles from home, Dad never met us, 22 in bad weather. If someone 23 (and my brothers did a lot), he’d say in his 24 father-voice. “That’s what your legs are 25 !”
One spring morning I was on the bus home from 26 . Tests and long hours in labs had 27 me exhausted. As other students were 28 at their stops. I looked silently out of the window. Finally, the bus came to a 29 at my destination, and I 30 , carrying my suitcase to begin the long journey home.
The row of privet hedge(树篱) came into 31 , which lined the driveway that climbed the hill to our house. I stopped to put a book in the suitcase. When I stood up, I saw something gray 32 along the top of the hedge toward the house.
It was the top of my father’s head. I 33 then, each time I came home, he would stand behind the hedge, watching, 34 he knew I had arrived safely. I held back my tears. He did care, 35 .
Upon reaching home, I found my father innocently in his chair. “So! It’s you!” he said, his face lengthening into surprise.
