It was the end of the football season, and as Michael ran slowly onto the practice field shortly     8   the big final game, the coach met him with a telegram. Michael    9     the telegram and became deathly silent—his father died that morning, and the sad man left for   10   immediately.
In the third quarter, when the team was ten points    11  , a silent young man eagerly    12   onto the sidelines. The coach and his players were shocked to see their team-mate back so    13 .
“Coach, please let me    14  . I have to play today,” said Michael. Feeling sorry for him, the coach     15  . Before long, nobody could believe their eyes. This small bench warmer played like a(n)    16  . He helped his team win finally.
When the team was cheering for their    17  , Michael was sitting in the corner all alone. The coach came to him and said, “You were fantastic! Tell me    18  you did it?”
Tears in eyes, Michael said, “Well, you knew my dad died, but did you know he was blind?” He    19   a smile, “Dad came to all my games, but today was the first time he could   20   me play, and I wanted to show him I could do it!”

The rumors had been spreading for months but it still came as a shock when the hospital would be closing. It had served this poor neighborhood for nearly 100 years but it would close because of the health care crisis.
The day after the announcement co-workers found out that pretzels(椒盐饼干) had been eliminated. Soft pretzels are the lifeblood of this city. So losing access to soft pretzels is no small matter.
I said, “I only have $6. I’m not sure how many pretzels I need. You see, I work at a hospital and it’s closing and they stopped selling pretzels.” The man’s smile disappeared. “What hospital?” “Oh, Northeastern Hospital.”
The guy looked deeply shocked. “I used to sell medical supplies and that was one of my hospitals.” Then he turned around and grabbed a box of 25 pretzels and slid them across the counter.
I was surprised by his generosity and started to reach for my wallet, “Oh I can pay. Please let me …” The guy smiled, “Just tell them Joe Sullivan said to do something nice for someone else.”
And so that day everyone in medical records was treated to a soft pretzel. Word spread fast as people came asking, “Is it really true?” It was as if I’d carried in a box of gold. It mattered to them that a stranger cared.
