About ten years ago when I was an undergraduate in college in New York, I was working as a practice student at my University's Museum of Natural History. One day while I was working at the cash register in the gift shop, I saw an elderly couple come in with a little girl in wheelchair.

As I looked closer at this girl, I saw that she was seated on her chair. I then realized she had no arms or legs, just a head, neck and the trunk of the human body. She was wearing a little white dress with the patterns of red roses and yellow dots.

As the couple wheeled her up to me I was looking down at the register. I turned my head toward the girl and gave her a wink(眨眼示意). As I took the money from her grandparents, I looked back at the girl, who was giving me the most beautiful, largest smile I have ever seen

All of a sudden her handicap was gone and all I saw was this beautiful girl, whose smile just melted me and almost instantly gave me a completely new sense of what life is all about. I immediately felt full of hope and confidence. She took me, a poor, unhappy college student, into her world, a world of smiles, love and warmth.

That was ten years ago, but I still remember it clearly as if it happened just yesterday. I'm a successful business person now and whenever I get down and think about the troubles of the world, I think about that little girl and the remarkable lesson about life that she taught me.

What was the writer a decade ago?

A. A worker working in a university.

B. A teacher teaching in a college.

ONCE again, I was in new school. 36 was a girl in my class named Paris. That’s where the similarities 37 . I was tall and she was small. I was one of the   38 in the class while she was the youngest. I was awkward and shy. She wasn’t. I couldn’t stand her, considering her my 39 .
40 she wanted to be friends.
One day, she invited me   41   and I said yes I was too shocked to say no．42 no one had invited me over to play before．But this girl, who wore the   43   fashions, wanted to see me．She lived on the fourth floor in a two-room place with her mother, her stepfather, her two brothers and her sister- When we got to the room she shared with her sister, she took out a big case of Barbies which was my next   44 ．I would have thought she’d outgrown them．I had   45   played with them．But we sat on the floor of a walk-in cupboard laughing as we   46 crazy stories about the Barbies．That’s when we found out that we both wanted to be   47 when we were older．We both had wild   48 ．
We had a great day that afternoon．Our jaws （下巴） 49 from smiling so much．She showed me her   50 , which had mostly come from a designer clothing store （时装设计店） down the block．The woman who owned it used her as a   51 sometimes for her newspaper ads and gave her clothes in exchange．
Paris had the whole   52   charmed．The bookstore owners lent her fashion magazines, the 53__ gave her free passes and the pizza place let her have free pieces．Soon I was   54 in her magic world．We slept over at each other’s houses, spent every free moment together．My dark hair grew out and I learned to love being tall．
Paris, my first real friend since childhood, helped me get through the   55   teenage years and taught me an amazing and very surprising thing about making friends: your "worst enemy" can turn out to be your best friend．
