It was the day before Christmas, but I had to work. The only thing that brightened my    28   was a gift sent to me — a dozen beautiful     29    .

As I was cleaning my office, a lady in the front office urgently needed to talk to me. As I stepped out, I noticed a young,      30      woman with a baby in her arms.     31    , she explained that her husband, a prisoner, was my next patient. She told me she wasn’t     32     to visit her husband in prison, and that he had     33      seen his son. She wished to     34     the boy’s father sit in the waiting room with her as long as possible      35     I called him for his appointment. Since my schedule (日程安排) wasn’t full, I agreed.      36    , it was Christmas Eve.

A short time later, her husband arrived. The woman’s tired face     37     when her husband took a seat beside her. I kept peeking (偷看) out to watch them laugh and cry , and     38     their child.

After almost an hour, I     39      the prisoner to the office. The patient seemed like a gentle and humble（恭顺的）man. I tried to make him as     40     as possible.

At last, I     41     him a Merry Christmas — a difficult thing to say to a man heading back to prison. He thanked me. He also said he felt     42     by the fact that he hadn’t been able to give his wife anything for Christmas.     43     hearing this, I came up with a wonderful     44     …

I’ll never forget the     45     on both their faces as the prisoner gave his wife the beautiful red roses. I am not     46     who experienced the most joy --- the husband in giving, the wife in receiving, or myself in having the opportunity to share in this special     47    .
