The teacher thought that hobbies were very important for every child. She 20  all her pupils to have one, and sometimes, arranged for their parents to come and 21 the work they had done as a result.
One Friday morning the teacher told the class that  22 of them who had a hobby could 23  a holiday that afternoon to get things they had  24  as parts of their hobbies ready for their parents to see the following afternoon.
So on Friday afternoon, 25 those of the pupils who had nothing to show did their usual lessons, the  26 ones who had made something were allowed to go home, on 27 that they returned before five o’clock to bring what they were going to 28  . When the afternoon lessons began, the teacher was   29  to see that Tommy was not there. He was the laziest boy in the class, and the teacher found it difficult to believe that he had a hobby. However, at a quarter to five, Tommy arrived with a   30 collection of butterflies in glass cases.  31  his teacher had admired them
and helped him to arrange them on a table in the   32 , she was surprised to see Tommy pick them up again and begin to   33 . “What are you doing, Tommy?” she asked. “Those things must   34  here until tomorrow afternoon. That’s   35  the parents are coming to see them.”
“I know they are coming then,” answered Tommy, “and I will   36  them back tomorrow, but my big brother doesn’t want them to be out of our house at night in case they are  37  .”
“But what has it got to do   38  your big brother?” asked the teacher. “Aren’t the butterflies yours?” “No,” answered Tommy. “They belong to him.” “But Tommy, you are   39  to show your own hobby here, not somebody else’s!” said the teacher. “I know that,” answered Tommy. “My hobby is watching my brother collecting butterflies.”

But at __18__, a different story is told. How we treat our loved ones, young and old. Later in the kitchen, as I __19__ the meal, my daughter walked up to me, very still. When I turned, I __20__ knocked her down.“Get out of the way!” I shouted with a frown(皱眉). She stepped away silently, with her little heart __21__. I didn’t realize how rudely I had spoken.
That night, when I lay __22__ in bed, God’s quiet voice spoke to me and said, “ While __23__ with a stranger, you are calm and polite, but with those you love, you are QUICK to excite… Go look around on the kitchen floor, you’ll find some flowers there by the ___24__. Those are the flowers she brought for you. She __25__ them herself--- pink, yellow, and your favorite blue. She stood there quietly and you never saw the ___26__ in her eyes.”

I quietly went and knelt(跪) by her__27__. “ Wake up, my dear,” I said. “ Are these the flowers you picked up for me?” She smiled, “ I found them out by the tree, I _28__ them in a napkin（纸巾）, just for you.

To my family and friends,
I have just started my tour of the area badly affected by the war. Everything is going really well, so no   16 . The land is beautiful but unfortunately it has a lot of   17  too. Let me   18 .
Last week, 120 school girls were   19  by a gas leak（泄漏）. Most have recovered but six are still in   20 . Even though the local government speaks about the   21 of education, most of the kids here only attend school for four hours a day if they are lucky. They are so excited and   22  to learn, but then have to   23  things like being attacked. Most of these kids are   24  and can’t afford a pencil or even paper. So I’m planning a trip to several schools to talk about   25  and to give these kids some of the   26  they need. That is where all of you can help. If you can   27  whatever school supplies you have available, that would be   28  appreciated.
I know how busy you are so thank you for taking the   29  to do this and I will post pictures of this   30  after I return.
Thank you again.

Then on a rainy day I   22 to tell him my feeling . When we stopped at the school gate, the   23 big smile appeared on my father’s face . I   24  what would happen next. I   25   put my hand up and for the first time said “ No” to him . The smile on his face immediately changed into a 26 look. He looked at me for a long time and   27   began to appear in his eyes. I was shocked. I had never   28   him cry ! Then he said, “ You’re right . You are a big boy … a man. I won’t kiss you 29  .’’
Not long after that, my father went to sea on a bad day. 30  of the fishermen stayed at home , but not Dad , because he had a big family to feed . But after that day, he  31 came back . Later his boat was 32 with his nets half in and half out . He must have   33 a strong wind and was trying to save the nets.
