Tom lost his work last year and he didn’t find a job from then on. He was very worried. He had a big family to feed. His sons and daughters were often hungry. His wife was angry with him and she went away from his home.

  One evening at about six, Tom went into the church (教堂) with a turkey（火鸡）in his hands. “ I took a turkey from a house, my pastor (牧师),” Tom said, “Would you like to take it away and forgive me?”

  “ I won’t take the turkey away,” said the pastor, “Since you have known your fault, (错误) you must give it back to the host.”

  “ I have tried,” cried Tom, “ But the host didn’t agree to take it back.”

  “ I believe you,” said the pastor “You can take the turkey home and give it to your children.”

Some time ago I discovered that one of my chairs had a broken leg. I didn't think there would be any difficulty in getting it repaired, as there are a lot of antique (古董) shops near my home. So I left home one morning carrying the chair with me. I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception（接待）． I was quite wrong. The man wouldn't even look at my chair.

    The second shop, though slightly more polite, was just the same, and the third and the fourth -- so I decided that my approach must be wrong.

    I entered the fifth shop with a plan in my mind. I placed the chair on the floor and said to the shopkeeper, "Would you like to buy a chair?"

    He looked it over carefully and said,- "Yes, not a bad chair. How much do you want for it, sir?"

    “Twenty pounds," I said.

    “OK," he said, "I'll give you twenty pounds."

    “It's got a slightly broken leg," I said.

    ‘'Yes, I saw that, it's nothing."

    Everything was going according to my plan and l was getting excited. "What will you do with it?" I asked.

    “Oh, it will be easy to sell once the repair is done."

    “I'll buy it," I said.

    “What do you mean? You've just sold it to me," he said.

    "Yes, I know but I've changed my mind. I am sorry. I'll give you twenty-seven pounds for it."

    “You must be crazy," he said. Then, suddenly the penny dropped. “I know what you want. You want me to repair your chair."

    “You're right," I said. "And what would you have done if I had walked in and said, 'Would you repair this chair for me?"'

    “I wouldn't have agreed to do it," he said. "We don't do repairs, not enough money in it and too much trouble. But I'II repair this for you. Shall we say for five pounds?" He was a very nice man and was greatly amused by the whole thing.

Lunch Made of Love

In those poor times, many of my classmates couldn’t bring a nice meal to school for lunch. My deskmate’s meal was always cabbages, while 66  （我的）was ham and fried eggs. Sometimes, my deskmate would first pick the hair out of his lunch and then eat it as if   67 （没事）had happened. This continued for a long time.

“His mother is so lousy（邋遢的）that her hair drops in the meal, ”my classmates said. I  68  （想）it was really dirty, but I couldn’t show that because I didn’t want to hurt（伤害）his feelings. Still, I started to think that he was   69 （肮脏）, too.

One day after school, he called me and said, “Would you like to come to my house if you are  70 

（有空）? ”

Though I didn’t want to go, I knew it would be impolite to refuse because this was his first invitation. Following my friend, we   71  （到达）at a poor village.

“Mom, I brought my friend home. ”

His old mother opened the   72 （门）, “My son’s friend is here. Let me have a look. ”But to my

  73 （惊讶）, his mother was blind. She couldn’t see anything.

I felt sad. Now I understood why my deskmate’s lunch had hair in it. His mother got ready for it

  74  （仔细）for him every day, even though she was blind. It was not only a lunch, but also a   75  

（母亲）love.
