After giving a talk at a high school, I was asked to pay a visit to a special student. An illness had kept the boy home, but he had expressed an interest in meeting me. I was told it would mean a great deal to him, so I agreed.
During the nine-mile drive to his home, I found out something about Matthew. He had muscular dystrophy (肌肉萎缩症). When he was born, the doctor told his parents that he would not live to five, and then they were told he would not make it to ten. Now he was thirteen. He wanted to meet me because I was a gold-medal power lifter, and I knew about overcoming obstacles and going for my dreams.
I spent over an hour talking to Matthew. Never once did he complain or ask, “Why me?” He spoke about winning and succeeding and going for his dreams. Obviously, he knew what he was talking about. He didn’t mention that his classmates had made fun of him because he was different. He just talked about his hopes for the future, and how one day he wanted to lift weights with me. When we had finished talking, I went to my briefcase and pulled out the first gold medal I had won and put it around his neck. I told him he was more of a winner and knew more about success and overcoming obstacles than I ever would. He looked at it for a moment, then took it off and handed it back to me. He said, “You are a champion. You earned that medal. Someday when I get to the Olympics and win my own medal, I will show it to you.”
Last summer I received a letter from Matthew’s parents telling me that Matthew had passed away. They wanted me to have a letter he had written to me a few days before:
Dear Dick,
My mum said I should send you a thank-you letter for the picture you sent me. I also want to let you know that the doctors tell me that I don’t have long to live any more, but I still smile as much as I can.
I told you someday that I would go to the Olympics and win a gold medal, but I know now I will never get to do that. However, I know I’m a champion, and God knows that too. When I get to Heaven, God will give me my medal and when you get there, I will show it to you. Thank you for loving me.
Your friend,
Matthew

I went to see film after supper. On my way to the cinema, I met an old Englishwoman,

she had lost her way. I gave up the chance to see the film, walking towards her and

took her to her hotel. While go there, I told her great change had been taken place in the past few years and she told me something about Britain and her family. Though I missed the film, however I felt very happy, for I not only helped the old lady out from trouble but also practise my spoken English. If I hadn’t worked hard at English, I would have been able to help her

It was on a winter morning, near Oxford, Maryland, that I set the breakfast table beside the huge window, which __36__ the Tred Avon River．The snow decorated the shore in white．For a moment I stood quietly against the bookcase, appreciating what the night’s snow had __37__．

38    I leaned forward and peered （盯着看） close to the frosted window．“It really is!” I cried out loud．“There is a goose out there!” I __39__ to the bookcase and pulled out a pair of binoculars （望远镜）．Into their sights came the __40__ of a large Canada goose, very still, its wings folded tight to its sides, its __41__ frozen to the ice．

Then from the dark sides, I saw a line of swans．They crossed __42__ the west of the broad river, moving __43__ to the east．

As I __44__, the leader swung to the right, and then the white __45__ of birds become a white circle．It floated from the top of the sky downward．At last, as easy as feathers coming to earth, the circle __46__ the ice．The swans __47__ the frozen goose! Amazingly, those bills （啄） began to work on __48__．The long necks were lifted and curved down, __49__．It went on for a long time．At last, the goose was free and __50__ its big webbed （有蹼的） feet slowly．The goose __51__ its wings as far as they would go．The swans took off and __52__ their eastward journey, in perfect formation, to their secret destination．__53__ them, rising with incredible speed and joy, the goose moved into the sky．

I watched them __54__ they disappeared over the tips of the farthest trees．Only then did I realize that tears were running down my cheeks．

This is a true story．I do not try to interpret it here．I just often __55__ it in the bad moments, and tell myself, “If so for birds, why not for man?”

I was shopping at my local supermarket, as I normally have for years. One particular day, I had done about 2 weeks worth of shopping and   36  toward the register to pay for my groceries.  After the cashier had scanned my items and I had bagged them up, she stated that the 37  was $150. 
I   38  into my back right pocket to grab the money to pay and noticed that there was no money there.  I started to get   39  .  I knew my pocket book was in the car and I was sure I had put the    40   in my back right pocket. I looked at the cashier with wet eyes and a   41 look not knowing what to do.  There were people behind me on the line. She told me to speak with the courtesy counter (爱心柜台).  I  42   and said, “Really? It's  43  , no one would hand that in!”  But she  44   me to. “You never know…” she said.
I decided that there was no   45  in checking so I walked up to a woman behind the counter and said “I have to ask, did anyone   46  cash by any chance?” She asked “How much?" My face then  47  .  “$200 in the form of one hundred dollar bills.” I replied.  She said, “  48 , yes, someone did!" I was so   49 ! “Who? I want to thank her.”  She pointed to a young girl about 10 years old and says, “She did.”
I walked over to the mom and hugged her. She said, “It wasn't me, it was my    50 ” .  I said “I know, I wanted to thank you both,    51   she found it ... it's because of you that I got this back.” I was so happy, I was almost in tears. 
The next day at work, a person in another department   52  me tickets to the circus.  He handed me 5 tickets. Almost  53   that young girls face popped (突然出现) in my head.  After work I went back to the supermarket and stopped at the courtesy counter and asked if she had any idea who that woman was. She smiled and said, “Yes, She is a friend of mine”.  Then I asked her to do me a favor and pass along these 5 tickets to her.
She told me that the family of the little girl who found my money were not rich so they would really   54  this.  She also said that they had 3 children, so five was the   55  number of tickets!
