　 I will never forget the year I was about twelve years old. My mother told us that we would not be _41_ Christmas gifts because there was not enough money. I felt sad and thought, “What would I say when the other kids asked what I’d　 42　 ?” Just when I started to　 43　 that there would not be a Christmas that year, three women　 44　 at our house with gifts for all of us. For me they brought a doll, I felt such a sense of　 45　 that I would no longer have to be embarrassed when I returned to school. I wasn’t　 46　 . Somebody had thought　 47　 of me to bring me a gift.　

　　　 Years later, when I stood in the kitchen of my new house, thinking how I wanted to make my　 48　 Christmas there special and memorable, I　 49　 remembered the women’s visit. I decided that I wanted to create that same feeling of　 50　 for as many children as I could possibly reach.

　　　 So I　 51　 a plan and gathered forty people from my company to help. We gathered about 125 orphans (孤儿) at the Christmas party. For every child, we wrapped colorful packages filled with toys, clothes, and school suppliers,　 52　 with a child’s name. We wanted all of them to know they were　 53　 . Before I called out their names and handed them their gifts, I　 54　 them that they couldn’t open their presents　 55　 every child had come forward. Finally the　 56　 they had been waiting for came as I called out, “One, two, three. Open your presents!” As the children opened their packages, their faces beamed and their bright smiles　 57　 up the room. The　 58　 in the room was obvious, and　 59　 wasn’t just about toys. It was a feeling –the feeling I knew　 60　 that Christmas so long ago when the women came to visit. I wasn’t forgotten. Somebody thought of me. I matter.
