  “Everything happens for the best,” my mother said whenever I faced disappointment.“If you   1   on, something good will happen some day.And you'll realize it wouldn't have happened if not for that previous disappointment.”

  Mother was right, as I   2   after graduating from college.I had   3   myself for a sports announcer.So I went to Chicago to knock on the door of every station and was   4   every time.In one station, a kind lady told me that   5   stations wouldn't employ a person without   6   since I had just graduated.“Go out in the town and find a small station that might give you a chance,” she said.

  I returned to Dixon,   7   I had finished my high school education and had   8   in the school football team.My father said that our town had built a store and wanted a man to   9   its sports department.The job sounded just   10   for me but I wasn't hired.

  My disappointment had   11   as if by design.“Everything happens for the best,” Mom   12   me.Dad lent me his car to look for a job.I tried WOC Radio Davenport.The programme director told me   13   had already hired an announcer.

    14   I left his office, I asked aloud, “  15   can a fellow get to be a sports announcer if   16   can't get a job in a radio station?” Suddenly, I heard the director   17  , “Do you know anything about football?” Then he asked me to   18   an imaginary game.It was   19   and I did it without difficult.The director was   20   and told me I would be broadcasting a game on the coming Saturday.

  “We don’t sell miracles here, little girl. I’m sorry _45_ I can’t help you,” the doctor said. The doctor’s brother was a _46_ man. He _47_ and asked the little girl, “What kind of a miracle does your brother need?” “I don’t know,” Tess replied with her eyes _48_ up.

  “Mommy says he needs an operation. But my Daddy can’t _49_ it, so I want to use my money.”

“_50_ do you have?” asked the man from Chicago.

  “One dollar and eleven cents,” Tess answered. “And it’s all the money I have.”

  “Well, what _51_,” smiled the man, “A dollar and eleven cents — the _52_ price of a miracle for your little brother.”

The other day I was talking to a stranger on the bus; he told me that he had a good  1 in Chicago and he wondered if, by any chance, I  2 to know him . For a moment, I thought he might be  3  ,but I could tell from the expression on his face that he was not. He was  4 . I felt like saying that it was ridiculous (可笑的) to  5  that out of all the millions of people in Chicago I could possibly have ever bumped into his friend. But,  6 , I just smiled and reminded him that Chicago was a very  7 city. He nodded, and I thought he was going to be content to drop the subject and talk about something else. But I was wrong. He was silent for a few minutes, and then he  8  to tell me all about his friend.

His friend’s main  9  in life seemed to be tennis. He was an excellent tennis player , and he  10  had his own tennis court. There were a lot of people with swimming  11 , yet there were only two people with private tennis court; his friend in Chicago was one of them. I told him that I knew several  12  like that, including my brother, who was doctor in California. He  13  that maybe there were more private courts in the country, than he  14  but he did not know of any others. Then he asked me  15  my brother lived in California. When I said Sacramento, he said that was a coincidence  16  his Chicago friend spent the summer in Sacramento last year and he lived next door to a  17  who had a tennis court in his backyard. I said I felt that really was a coincidence (巧合) because my next-door neighbour had gone to Sacramento last summer and had  18  the house next to my brother’s house. For a moment, we stared at each other, but we did not say anything.

“Would your friend’s name happen to be Roland Kirkwood?” I asked finally. He  19 and said, “Yes. Would your brother’s name happen to be Dr Rey Hunter?” It was my  20 to laugh. “Yes,” I replied.

Slowly, I began having short 40 with him. His name was Mr. Rodgers, but he 41 that I call him Don. I learned that he and his wife had gone to dinner and a movie every Saturday. Since she had died, he  42 the tradition alone.

About four months after meeting him, I received  46 from a nurse telling me that Don was in hospital. He was  47 complications (并发症) from a heart operation. I  48 drove to the hospital to see him. The first thing he did was thank me for  49 him to visit the doctor. At first I didn’t know what he was  50 . Then I remembered that about three weeks earlier, Don was  51 about chest pains and I gave him the number of a  52 I know.

A nurse asked, “Are you his daughter?” and I replied, “No, I’m his  53 .”
