On August 26, 1999, New York City experienced a torrential downpour. The rain caused the streets to __21__ and the subway system almost came to a stop.

¡¡¡¡ Unfortunately, this happened during the morning rush hour. Many people who were going to work were __22__ to go home. Some battled to __23__ a taxi or to get on a bus. Still others faced the __24__ bravely, walking miles to get to work.

¡¡¡¡ I __25__ to be one of the people on the way to work that morning. I went from subway line to subway line only to find that most __26__ had stopped. After making my way __27__ crowds of people, I finally found a subway line that was _28__. Unfortunately, there were so many people waiting to __29__ the subway that I could not even get down the stairs to the __30__. So I took the train going in the opposite direction, and then switch back to the downtown train. Finally, after what seemed like an forever journey, the train __31__ my stop. Then I had to walk several blocks in the increasingly heavy rain. When I finally got to my office, I was __32__ through, exhausted and __33__.

¡¡¡¡ My co-workers and I spent most of the day drying off. When it was 5:00 pm£¬I was ready to go home. I was about to turn off my computer __34__ I received an email from Garth, my Director:

¡¡¡¡ I would like to thank all of you who made the effort and __ 35__ reported to work. It is always reassuring(ÁîÈËÐÀο), at times like these, when employees so clearly show their __36__ to their jobs. Thank you.

Garth¡¯s email was short, but I learned more from that __37__ message than I ever did from a textbook. The email taught me that a few words of __38__ can make a big difference. The rainstorm and the traffic __39__ had made me tied and upset. But Garth¡¯s words immediately__40__ me and put a smile back on my face.
