Do you know the man ________?

[　　]

I'd been travelling for long hours on a lonely country road when I had a flat tire. So I had to stop and get the tools to 36 the problem. It certainly wasn’t 37 doing this with a white shirt and suit on.

Nightfall was approaching. Suddenly a car pulled 38 from behind me. A man got out and offered to 39 me. Seeing his unpleasant appearance and tattoos（纹身）on his arm, I became 40 as thoughts of robberies flashed through my mind. But 41 I could say anything he had already begun to take the tools to change the 42 . While watching him I happened to look back at his car and noticed someone sitting in the passenger seat. This had 43 me.

Then, without 44 , it began to rain. He suggested that I wait in his car because my car was unsafe. As the rain increased, getting us wet within seconds, I 45 agreed. When I settle into the back seat, a woman’s voice came from the front seat. “Are you all right?” She turned around to me. “Yes, I am.’’ I replied with much 46 when seeing an old woman there. It must be his Mom, I thought. To my 47 , the old woman was a neighbor of the man who was helping me. “Jeff insisted on stopping when he saw you 48 with the tire. ”“I am grateful for his help, ” I said. “Me, too!” she said with a smile. He helped drive her to see her husband twice a week in a nursing home. She also said that he 49 at the church and tutored disadvantaged students.

The rain stopped and Jeff and I changed me tire. I tried to offer him money and of course he 50 it. It was shameful that I judged people by the way they 51 . As we shook hands I began to apologize for my 52 . He said, ‘‘I experience that same 53 often. People who look like me don’t do nice things. I 54 thought about changing the way. But then I saw this as a chance to make a 55 . So I’ll leave you with the same question I ask everyone who takes time to know me. If Jesus returned tomorrow and walked among us again, would you recognize Him by what He wore or by what He did?’’

　　When you are little, it's not hard to believe you can changed the world．I remember my enthusiasm when, at the age of 12, I addressed the people at the Rio Earth Summit．“I am only a child,” I told them．"Yet I know that if all the money spent on war was spent on ending poverty and finding environmental answers, what a wonderful place this would be．In school you teach us not to fight with others, to work things out, to respect others, to clean up our mess, not to hurt other creatures, to share, not be greedy．Then why do you go out and do the things you tell us not to do?You grownups say you love us, but I challenge you, please, to make your actions reflect your words．"

　　I spoke for six minutes and received a standing ovation．Some of the delegates even cried．I thought that maybe I had reached some of them, that my speech might actually spur(刺激)action．Now, a decade from Rio, after I've sat through many more conferences, I'm not sure what has been accomplished．My confidence in the people in power and in the power of an individual's voice to reach them has been deeply shaken．

　　When I was little, the world was simple．But as a young adult, I'm learning that as we have to make choices－education, career, lifestyle－life gets more and more complicated．We are beginning to feel pressure to produce and be successful．We are learning a shortsighted way of looking at the future, focusing on four-year government terms and quarterly business reports．We are taught that economic growth is progress, but we aren't taught how to pursue a happy, healthy or sustainable way of living．And we are learning that what we wanted for our future when we were 12 was idealistic and na?ve(天真)．

　　Today I'm no longer a child, but I'm worried about what kind of environment my children will grow up in．I know change is possible, because I am changing, still figuring out what I think．I am still deciding how to live my life．The challenges are great, but if we accept individual responsibility and make choices, we will rise to the challenges, and we will become part of the positive tide of the change．I hope this goal will be met through our common efforts．Thank you all．

Recently I spoke to some of my students about what they wanted to do after they graduated, and what kind of job prospects they thought they had.
Given that I teach students who are training to be doctors, I was surprised to find that most thought that they would not be able to get the jobs they wanted without “outside help”. “What kind of help is that?” I asked, expecting them to tell me that they would need a relative or family friend to help them out.
“Surgery(外科手术)”, one replied.
I was pretty alarmed by that response. It seems that the graduates of today are increasingly willing to go under the knife to get ahead of others when it comes to getting a job.
One girl told me that she was considering surgery to increase her height. “They break your legs, put in special extending screws, and slowly expand the gap between the two ends of the bone as it regrows, you can get at least 5cm taller!”
At that point, I was shocked. I am short, I can’t deny that, but I don’t think I would put myself through months of agony(痛苦) just to be a few centimeters taller. I don’t even bother to wear shoes with thick soles, as I’m not trying to hide the fact that I am just not tall!
It seems to me that there is a trend toward wanting “perfection”, and that is an ideal that just does not exist in reality.
No one is born perfect, yet magazines, TV shows and movies present images of thin, tall, beautiful people as being the norm. Advertisements for slimming aids, beauty treatments and cosmetic surgery clinics fill the pages of newspapers, further creating an idea that “perfection” is a requirement, and that it must be purchased, no matter what the cost.
In my opinion, skills, rather than appearance, should determine how successful a person is in his chosen career.
