She ordered her meal and I told her the total. As she searched  35  her purse to find some change,the woman soon  36  that she was about a dollar short.  “I’m  37  to say this, but I guess I won’t be able to make my purchase 38,”she said sadly.
That’s when I had the idea of 39 the difference for her. She refused at first,but after I 40, she agreed. She thanked me and moved to the end of the counter to  41  her order. I continued with my work and thought  42  more of it.
About an hour later  43  had slowed down and I was waiting for my next customer. Then I glanced over towards the  44  and saw the same woman whom I’d helped with the money entering again.I  45  recognized her.
She walked straight up to me and said,“I want to thank you again for what you did. You see,I’m a diabetic(糖尿病患者),and  46  I need to eat something right away.That’s  47  I came in earlier.If you hadn’t helped me as you did,I might have fainted(晕倒). Thank you.”
She  48  me two dollars, twice I’d given her.

By now there were several people standing around me, my mom, and the little broken bush(灌木丛).
“Son, would you like me to call an ambulance?” some men said.
“No,” my mom yelled. “I’m fine. Please go away!”
“She’s learning to ride,” I tried to explain to all those who were not going to go away.
“Oh, all right!” My mom sat up and brushed the grass and leaves off her sweater. Finally she stood up. Everyone began to clap(鼓掌), and my mom’s face turned bright pink.
“Thank you very much, but as you can see, I’m just fine.” Mom took a few steps around to show them that she wasn’t hiding a broken leg. Everyone clapped again and then went on their way.
“Enough for today?” I asked hopefully.
“No,” she said in a way that surprised me. “I almost had it, and then I let myself get scared. I know I can do it this time!” Now this sounded more like my mom, for I’d never known my mom to be afraid of anything before. I helped her pull the bike out of the bush and push it up the hill.
She didn’t look quite so pale this time. She got on the bike again and went down the hill. I ran down the hill after her. She had ridden quite a way ahead of me when she looked back over her shoulder, smiling. Then she gave me a thumbs-up(翘拇指) sign.
“No, no!” I yelled. “Use both hands!”
But it was too late. Again.
“Mom! Are you hurt?” I ran up to her in the grass.
This time she was laughing. “Did you see me? I did it! I really did it!” Then she stopped and looked at me. “I mean,” she said, “we did it.”

A farmer had some puppies to sell. He painted a sign advertising them on the edge of his yard.

One day, a little boy came to buy one of the puppies. With a whistle(口哨), the farmer called, “Here, Dolly!” Out from the doghouse ran Dolly followed by four little balls of fur. The little boy stood against the fence(栅栏). His eyes danced with happiness.

As the dogs made their way to the fence, the little boy noticed something else inside the doghouse. Slowly another little ball appeared, something wrong with its legs, doing its best to catch up.

“I want that one,” the little boy said.

The farmer knelt(跪下)down at the boy's side and said, “Son, you don't want that puppy. He will never be able to run and play with you like these other dogs would.”

With that, the little boy stepped back from the fence, reached down and began rolling up one leg of his trousers. In doing so, he showed a steel brace(固定器)running down both sides of his leg attaching itself to a specially made shoe.
