My grandparents were married for over half a century, and played their own special game from the time they had met each other. The goal of their game was to write the word "shmily" in a     31    place for the other to find. They took turns leaving "shmily" around the house, and as soon as one of them     32    it, it was their turn to hide it once more.
There was no     33    to the places where "shmily" would appear. Sometimes, "Shmily" was written in the     34    left on the mirror after a hot shower, where it would reappear bath after bath.     35   , my grandmother even unrolled an entire roll of toilet paper to     36    "shmily" on the very last sheet.
It took me a long time before I was able to fully     37    my grandparents' game. It was     38    their funny little game; it was a way of life. Grandma and Grandpa held hands every chance they could. They    39    kisses as they ran into each other in their tiny kitchen. Before every meal they bowed their heads and gave their     40   : a wonderful family, good fortune, and     41  .
But there was a    42   cloud in my grandparents' life: my grandmother had breast cancer, which had first appeared ten years earlier. As always, Grandpa was with her every
    43    of the way. He comforted her in their yellow room, painted that way     44____    she could always be surrounded by sunshine, even when she was too     45    to go outside.   Then one day, what we all     46    finally happened. Grandma was gone.
"Shmily." It was written in yellow on the pink ribbons of my grandmother's funeral bouquet. As the crowd     47    and the last mourners (哀悼者) turned to leave, my aunts, uncles, cousins and other family members     48    and gathered around Grandma     49   . Grandpa stepped up to my grand-mother's casket and,     50    with sorrow, he began to sing to her. Through his tears and grief, the song came, a deep and throaty lullaby (摇篮曲).
SHMILY: See how much I love you.

A．over and over again

For several weeks she had been 21 me to play chess(棋) with her, so I suggested a game and she eagerly 22 .

It was her giggling (咯咯笑) that drew my attention. Note taking really wasn’t all that funny.
Walking over to the offender (肇事者), I asked for the   36 . Frozen, she refused to give it to me. I waited, all attention in the classroom on the quiet   37  between a teacher and a student. When she finally   38  it over she whispered, “Okay, but I didn’t draw it.” It was a hand-drawn   39  of me, teeth blackened and the words “I’m stupid” coming out of my mouth.
I managed to fold it up calmly. My mind,   40  , was working angrily as I struggled not to   41 . I figured I knew the two most likely students who drew the picture. It would do them some   42  to teach them a lesson, and maybe it was high time that I did it.
Thankfully, I was able to keep myself   43 .
When there were about six minutes remaining, I showed the class the picture. They were all silent as I told them how   44  this was for me. I told them there must be a reason   45    and now was their chance to write down anything they needed to tell me. Then I let them write silently while I was seated in the back of the classroom, with tears in my eyes.
As I   46  the notes later, many of them said something like, “I’ve got nothing   47  you.” or “I’m sorry you were hurt.” Some kids said, “We’re afraid of you.” But two notes, from the girls who I   48  drew the picture, had a list of issues. I was too   49 , too strict…
Reading those notes, I realized that over the course of this year, instead of   50  my students, I had begun commanding them to   51 . Where I thought I was driving them to success I was   52  driving them away. I had some apology to make. But the next day in the classroom, one boy and one girl each handed me a card. The one   53  by all the boys expressed sincere regret for the ugly joke. The one from the girls asked for   54 .
This was a lesson for both the kids and me. Forgiveness does not change the past, but it does enlarge the   55 .

I   52   opened the book to November 10 to   53   what words of wisdom this book had in store for me. I did a double-take and tears of   54   and appreciation rolled down my face. There, on my birthday, was the   55   same poem that had helped my father for all these years! It is called the Serenity （安详）Prayer:
God, grant me the Serenity to accept the things I cannot change; the Courage to change the things I can; and the Wisdom to know the difference.

Long long ago, human beings used to walk barefoot. A king happened to travel 16 into the countryside. He was greatly troubled by the 17 roads where gravel(砾石) and broken stones pricked(使刺痛) and numbed(使麻木) his 18 . When he returned to his palace he issued an order that all the roads be 19 with cattle hide(牛皮). He thought it was beneficial not only to 20 but also to his people and hoped 21 would no longer be a painful thing
But 22 all the cattle in the kingdom were killed there 23 not be enough hide to get the work done. Evidently it was a stupid 24 . As it was an imperial order people could do nothing but shake their heads and 25 . At this juncture a clever servant in the palace 26 to make a suggestion. "Your Majesty, why don't take an easier way? You don't have to mobilize（调动）so many people, to have so many oxen killed, nor so much money 27 . What you have to do is simply to cover each of your feet with a piece of hide." Surprised and 28 , the king immediately changed his mind and adopted the 29 .
