An old man had been working for many years for a town. His job was to clear away natural waste from the pool water in the hills, which made up the lovely river flowing through the town nearby. Quietly and 36 , the old man guarded the hills, 37 the leaves and branches, and cleaned up the dirt that would have 38 and polluted the fresh flow of water . The town soon became a popular attraction for tourists. Elegant swans (天鹅) floated along the clear river and the view was so beautiful 39 words.
Years passed. One evening the town 40 met. As they reviewed the budget, one man’s 41 caught sight of the salary 42 being paid to the seldom seen keeper of the river. He asked , “Who is the old man? Why do we 43 to employ him? No one in town ever 44 him. For all we know, the strange keeper of the hills isn’t doing his job. His position isn’t 45 any longer.” Then they voted to 46 the man.
For several weeks, nothing changed….
By early autumn, the trees began to 47 their leaves. Small branches broke off and fell into the pools of the hills, 48 the flow of the shining water. One afternoon, someone noticed a slight yellowish-brown 49 in the river. A few days later, the water was much 50 . Within another week, an oily something covered some sections of the water along the banks, and a terrible 51 was soon sensed. Swans left and so did the 52 . The only thing that was now visiting the village was disease and sickness.
Quickly, the 53 town committee called a special meeting. Realizing their huge error in 54 ,they rehired the old keeper of the river again, and within a few weeks, the river began to clear up. Swans and tourists came back again and new life returned to the small town in the Alps.

A Good Custodian
I know a woman who tries hard to be a good custodian．
I pass her every day after school as she pushes her cart down my
hallway．Of course, she is my building's cleaner,
One Tuesday morning I came into school and saw a 36 on my
desk from my custodian,
It seemed that some unbearable first year students had damaged the bathroom in a particularly disgusting way and she had been 37 to clean it．This took 38 than she had expected． She had left the typewritten note on my desk to 39 for not being able to clean my room as she was 40 to do．
At the beginning of the period, I shared her note with my first period 41 When I mentioned that our custodian had apologized to us, their first 42 was to volunteer to seek out and beat up those first year students for making our custodian have to clean up their 43 . It turned out that just about all of my students also knew our custodian by name -all of them responded with smiles and 44 for a long time about this time or that time when she'd 45 each of them in the hallway．That she felt she needed to apologize 46 a strong reaction from many of the kids．
As the class period was about to end, I asked them to 47 the floor like I do every period and thanked them for picking up any garbage 48 it wasn't theirs．My entire class disappeared; they each disappeared instantly 49 their desks to pick up those annoying tiny pieces of paper that 50 so easily from notebooks．One girl made a （an） 51 that I later used with my other classes:" Her job might be to clean the room, but she shouldn't have to clean up 52 us．There's a difference．”
I believe that people know the difference between right and wrong．I believe that people appreciate it when others 53 take care of them．And I believe that people, even adolescents who are not quite yet mature, appreciate it when they see someone who takes 54 in her work． Sometimes we need a 55 of the things we take for granted ．．．things like a good custodian to take care of us．
