“Forgiveness is the sweetest revenge.” I saw this wonderful old saying again in a book recently. It got me thinking about all the times that I have been    31   to forgive others in my life and all the joy that it has brought me. One    32   stands out particularly well.
I was a young boy at a summer camp. I was having a great time and    33___ everything about it except for another young boy of my age. To say we didn’t
   34   would be a statement that made the situation less serious than it really was. We spent most of the week irritating, insulting (侮辱), and picking on each other.
   35   finally came to a fight on the next to last day of camp. We got into a fist fight which I lost.    36   older boys broke it up before I was hurt too much. I spent the rest of the day alone, refusing to speak andlost in my own    37  .
The next day my spirits were    38   when Mom brought the boys in our cabin some of her delicious homemade    39  . I was enjoying a few slices of it when I saw the other boy sitting by himself at the bottom of the steps outside. He seemed very    40   right then. I am not sure what moved me to do so, but I took my pizza down and    41   it with him. It made all the anger and pain inside me    42  . We became friends after that. I never got into another fist fight either. I had found out that sharing and forgiving were much more fun and a lot less painful.
Forgiveness is    43   the sweetest revenge. It can turn an enemy into a friend. It can    44   a heart from the chains of anger, hatred, and pain. It can open a soul to the sweetness of love and joy once again. May your life always be    45   of sweet forgiveness.

I was fifteen months old, a happy kid until the day I fell. It was a    31   fall. I landed on a glass rabbit which cut my eye badly enough to make it blind. Trying to save the eye, the doctors stitched(缝合) the eyeball together where it was    32  , leaving a big ugly scar(疤痕) in the middle of my eye. The attempt    33  , but my mother, in all of her wisdom, found another doctor who knew that if the eye were removed    34  , my face would grow up badly distorted(扭曲)，   35   my scarred, sightless, cloudy and gray eye lived on with me. As I grew, this sightless eye in so many ways    36   me.
I walked with my face looking at the    37   so that people would not see the    38   me. Yet my mother would say to me, at every turn, “Hold your head up high and    39   the world. If you hold your head up high, it will be OK, and people will see your    40   soul.” She continued this    41   whenever I was trying to hide.
Mama’s words were of great help for me to face the world    42  . As a teenager, even though I tended to look down to hide my shame, I found that sometimes when I held my head up high and let people know me, they    43   me. In high school, I was    44   both academically and socially. I was    45   elected class president. My mother’s words helped me begin to realize that by letting people look at my face, I let them    46   the intelligence and beauty behind both eyes, even if they couldn’t see it on the    47  .
Now I’m a happy wife and great mother. The message “Hold your head up high,” has been
   48   many times in my   49   home. Each of my children has felt    50   invitation, and the gift my mother gave me has lived on in another generation.

I walked over to the mom and hugged her. She said, “It wasn't me, it was my    45 ” .  I said “I know, I wanted to thank you both,  46  she found it ... it's because of you that I got this back.” I was so happy. I was almost in tears. 
The next day at work, a person in another department  47  me tickets to the circus.  He handed me 5 tickets. Almost  48  that young girl’s face popped (突然出现) in my head.  After work I went back to the supermarket and stopped at the courtesy counter and asked if she had any idea who that woman was. She smiled and said, “Yes, She is a friend of mine”.  Then I asked her to do me a favor and pass along these 5 tickets to her.
She told me that the family of the little girl who found my money were not rich so they would really  49  this.  She also said that they had 3 children, so five was the   50  number of tickets!

Zoe Chambers was a successful PR(Public Relations) consultant and life was going well — she had a great job, beautiful flat and a busy social life in London. Then one evening in June last year, she received a text message telling her she was out of work. “The first two weeks were the most difficult to live through.” she said. “After everything I’d done for the company, they dismissed me by text! I was so angry and I just didn’t feel like looking for another job. I hate everything about the city and my life.”
Then, Zoe received an invitation from an old school friend, Kathy, to come and stay. Kathy and her husband, Huw, had just bought a farm in north-west Wales. Zoe jumped at the chance to spend a weekend away from London, and now, ten months later she is still on the farm.
"The moment I arrived at Kathy's farm, I loved it and I knew I wanted to stay." said Zoe. "Everything about my past life suddenly seemed meaningless."
Zoe has been working on the farm since October of last year and says she has no regrets. "It's a hard life, physically very tiring." she says. "In London 1 was stressed and often mentally exhausted. But this is a good, healthy tiredness. Here, all I need to put me in a good mood is a hot bath and one of Kathy's wonderful dinners."
Zoe says she has never felt bored on the farm. Every day brings a new experience. Kathy has been teaching her how to ride a horse and she has learnt to drive a tractor. Since Christmas, she has been helping with the lambing — watching a lamb being born is unbelievable, she says, "It's one of the most moving experiences I've ever had. I could never go back to city life now."

When I was in medical college, I went camping with some of my friends. The season was summer; therefore, we chose to go to the seaside. After arriving there, we rent a room and left our luggage there. We finished lunch and then decided to rent a boat because the sea and the weather were beautiful.
We started to row, but about one mile out, the weather suddenly changed. Although the weather was not good, we didn't want to give up, but finally my friends and I agreed that we should go back. We tried to change the boat's direction, but as soon as we changed it, the oarlock (桨架)broke. Therefore, we were unable to turn back. We had to wait for help because we couldn't do anything.
After seeing the change of weather, we shouldn't have continued to row, but it was too late. We regretted(后悔) it. The sea changed a lot, the waves got very high, and the boat began to shake like a cradle(摇篮). One of my friends started to cry; another started to vomit(呕吐). Three hours passed, and nobody came to help us. We were just praying.
Fortunately, after five long hours of waiting, two big boats came to rescue us and we escaped. If they hadn't come to get us, we would have crossed the border between Turkey and Greece because the border was very close.
This story is the most exciting story of my life because we could have died, but luck was with us and we escaped.

Alfred Alder, a famous psychiatrist, had an interesting experience. When he was a small boy he got off to a poor start in arithmetic. His teacher got the idea that he had no ability in arithmetic, and told his parents what she thought in order that they would not expect too much of him. In this way, they too developed the idea, “Isn’t it too bad that Alfred can’t do arithmetic?” He accepted their mistaken estimate of his ability, feeling that it was useless to try, and that he was very poor at arithmetic, just as they expected.
One day he became very angry at the teacher and the other students because they laughed when he said he saw how to do a problem which none of the other students had been able to solve.
Adler succeeded in solving the problem. This gave him confidence. He rejected the idea that he couldn’t do arithmetic and was determined to show them that he could. His anger and his new found confidence stimulated him to go at arithmetic problems with a new spirit. He now worked with interest, determination, and purpose, and he soon became extraordinarily good at arithmetic. He not only proved that he could do arithmetic, but he learned early in life from his own experience that, if a person goes at a job with determination and purpose, he may astonish himself as well as others by his ability.
This experience made him realize that many people have more ability than they think they have, and that lack of success is as often the result of lack of knowledge of how to apply one’s ability, lack of confidence, and lack of determination as it is the result of lack of ability.
小题1:Alfred gained confidence in learning arithmetic_______.
A．after he managed to find a solution to a difficult problem
B．after his teacher made his parents know his ability in arithmetic
C．after he grew up and became famous
D．after his parents gave him encouragement
小题2:In Alfred’s opinion, if a person is unsuccessful, he may be_______.
A．slow- thinking.B．disabled C．self-centered D．undetermined
小题3:The last sentence of paragraph 1 implies________.
A．Alfred thought he couldn’t change others’ mind
B．Alfred agreed with the wrong judgment
C．Alfred believed it was no use learning arithmetic
D．Alfred expected that he could succeed though it was hard
小题4:What can we conclude from the text?
A．Alfred has a strong determination and a firm belief
B．Others’ opinions are important
C．A person lacking in ability can still succeed
D．Alfred’s teacher and classmates will regret.
One evening I went out and left my 17-year-old son in charge of his 8-year-old brother and 4-year-old sister. On this occasion, the task was made less troublesome by the presence of his girlfriend. I left with complete confidence that the older children would do a wonderful job of babysitting the younger children and the younger children would do a wonderful job of accompanying the older ones. Later, I discovered that complete confidence was the last thing I should have left home with.
I had decided to return home earlier than planned so that my son and his girlfriend could go out. I called home with this happy news. But instead of hearing his cheerful, grateful voice on the other end of the line, all I heard was the sound of a telephone ringing.
It was, I should point out, after 10 p.m., when the two younger children should have been in bed, and when the two older children should have been answering the phone. “I’ll give him a lesson,” I said. I decided they must be outside. Why they might be outside at 10:30 on a wintry night I had no idea, but it was the only explanation I could come up with.
Finally, in desperation, I called his girlfriend’s house. After what seemed like countless rings, his girlfriend answered. “Yes,” she said brightly, “He’s right here.”
He came on the phone. I was not my usual calm, rational self. After all, one of the rules of survival for modern parents is that you can’t trust modern teenagers. “Where are the children?” I said. He said they were with him. They had done nothing wrong. My son had taken the younger children over to his girlfriend’s house just for ice cream and cake. This was too favorable to be believed. Well, it turned out that I shouldn’t have believed it. It was only part of the truth.
The following Saturday evening we were at my parents’ home, celebrating my birthday. My oldest son gave me the children’s gifts. Mounted(裱装) and framed were a series of lovely color photographs of my children, dressed in their best clothes, and wearing their most wonderful expressions. They are pictures to treasure a lifetime, all taken by the father of my son’s girlfriend.
That was the most precious gift of all.
