Love in a Box

When I was a little girl, I found love in a box all because of a class assignment(a piece of work). On a Friday night I   32   at dinner table, “MY teacher said we have to bring a box, a special box, for our valentines (情人节) on Monday”.

Mother said, “We’ll see,” and she continued eating.

What did “We’ll see” mean? I had to have that box   33   my second grade Valentine’s Day would be a disaster. Maybe they didn’t love me   34   to help me with my assignment.

All Saturday I waited   35   and with Sunday arriving, my worry increased, but I   36   an enquiry(询问) about the box might   37   anger or loud voice, for in my house children only asked once. More than that   38   trouble.

Late Sunday afternoon, my father called me into the kitchen. The table was covered with colorful   39   of different kinds. A (n)   40   shoebox rested on top of it.   41   flooded through me when Daddy said, “Let’s get started   42   your assignment.”

In the next hour my father   43   the shoebox into impressive valentine box. Colorful paper covered the ugly cardboard with red hearts   44   to what I considered all the right places. He sang while he worked. When he finished, he was so delighted that a   45  smile spread over his face. “What do you think of that?” he asked.

I answered him with a hug.

But inside,   46   danced all the way to my heart. It was the first time that my father devoted so much   47   to me, for his world consisted of work only.

The holiday party arrived   48  , and my classmates put cards, and presents into the valentine boxes. Laughter filled our classroom until it was over.

On the way home, I held out my valentine box for the world to   49  . The love that filled it meant more to me than all the valentines inside.

The valentine box became a symbol of his love that   50   through years of other Valentine’s Days. He gave me other gifts through the years, but none   51   compared with the love I felt within the limits of the old, empty shoebox.

Doctor are known to Be terriBle pilots. They don't listen Because they already know it all. I was lucky: Became a pilot in 1970, almost ten years Before I graduated from medical school. I didn't realize then, But Becoming a pilot makes me a Better surgeon. I loved flying. As I flew Bigger, faster planes, and in worse weather. I learned aBout crew resource management (机组资源管理), or CRM, a new idea to make flying safer. It means that crew memBers should listen and speak up for a good result, regardless of positions.
I first read aBout CRM in 1980. Not long after that, an attending doctor and I were flying in Bad weather. The controller had us turn too late to get our landing ready. The attending doctor was flying; I was safety pilot He was so Busy Because of the Bad turn, he had forgotten to put the landing gear (起落架) down. He was a Better pilot - and my Boss - so it felt unusual to speak up. But I had to: Our lives were in danger. I put aside my uneasiness and said, "We need to put the landing gear down now!" That was my first real lesson in the power of CRM, and I've used it in the operating room ever since.
CRM requires that the pilot/surgeon encourage others to speak up. It further requires that when opinions are from the opposite, the doctor doesn't overreact, which might prevent fellow doctors from voicing opinions again. So when I'm in the operating room, I ask for ideas and help from others. Sometimes they're not willing to speak up. But I hope that if I continue to encourage them , someday someone will keep me  from ”landing gear up”.
