One evening my father and I went to see a circus(马戏). A family was standing in front of us ,__56__ for tickets.
The family had eight children. Their clothes were not __57__, but they were clean. They were talking about the clowns and elephants excitedly.
“I want __58__ tickets, eight for children and two for adults,” said the father to the ticket lady.
The ticket lady told him the __59__. When he heard that, the man couldn’t believe his __60__. He asked again, “How much?”
The ticket lady spoke again. The father looked sad. Clearly, he didn’t have __61__ money.
My dad took a $20 bill and __62__ it on the ground. Then he said to the man, “Sir, this bill fell out of your pocket.”
The man knew __63__ was going on. He looked into my dad’s eyes and took the __64__. “Thank you, thank you, sir. This __65__ means a lot to me and my family.”
We didn’t go to the circus that night, but we didn’t feel sorry for it at all.

On a cold December morning, my mother and I were walking home from pizza store. We were  35 warmly and equipped with the video we had been trying to watch. I was feeling a little tired  36 I was carrying our shopping bags of snacks and the video.
They were so  37 that I decided to throw away some of them. So I started to walk towards the dustbin when I noticed a poor man stepping out of the restaurant in front of us. He held a paper bag with his dirty hand. He  38 over to another nearby dustbin and started looking  39 it.
I suddenly felt very upset. I know this man would take all he could get, so I walked up to him and  40 the drink and some snacks to him. The man, with lines on his face and wrinkles(皱纹) on his forehead, looked up in  41 and took what I gave him.
A huge smile spread across his face and this made  42  feel indescribable satisfaction(满意). I felt like I couldn’t be happier with myself, but then he said, “Wow, first someone gives me this sandwich, then this drink, and now some tasty food, this is my daughter’s  43 day!”
He thanked me happily and started off on his bike. I even heard him whistling(吹哨) a song as he  44 away.
I now understand what is meant by the saying “giving is getting”. Everyone in the world needs help, everyone can  45 help and everyone will be helped by something kind.
The image(图像) of that man’s happiness  46 by my small gift appears in my mind every time I have the chance to do something nice.

I was in my parked car, holding a book and reading. Once in a while I looked up, watching the people passing by. When I raised my    35   again, I saw an old lady with a large bag walking slowly towards my car. The bag seemed not only to make her steps    36  , but also make her out of breath. She looked tired and I thought she must be more than 70 years old.
She stopped and put a hand out to rest    37   it, gently (轻柔地，徐缓地) closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
Was there a way I could do something? I tried to keep my body still while my mind    38   for answers. However, because of my careless head movement, she noticed me, and she    39  moved her hand away from the car. I picked up a bottle of water at once, gently opened the door and offered the bottle to her. She    40   me, and then shook her head and walked away.
I was so    41   with myself. I should have been more careful not to move. Instead of    42   a hand, I had interrupted (打扰，中断) the old lady’s    43   moment of rest. I was feeling blue. Just at that moment, I saw the lady coming back again. I opened the door and patted (轻拍) the    44   next to me. She sat down, opened her bag and offered me a banana. I took it and offered her the bottle of water again. She took it.
I ate, she drank and we smiled. She    45   for a couple of minutes. Those minutes brought such quietness to me. Then she took my head in both her hands, made a small kissing    46   in the air, opened the car door and walked away.
I was trying to help someone in distress (困苦，苦恼). In turn, I became distressed and she took away my distress and replaced it with quietness.

Mozart 46___________ over the violin from the old man and he, himself, began to play.
