Mr．Clark worked long hours, making sure I did my work．My grades rose．In fact, I did so well that in sixth grade, I entered the 4 class, and Mr．Clark was the teacher．I felt so 5 to have him for a second year!

Alice, my friend's daughter, goes to an expensive private school where she has a friend, Jane, who is on a full scholarship at this school．Jane has 1 economic resources－her father has been dead for years and her mother works 2 a maid．Although her mother works very hard, she can 3 support the family．Jane is very bright and gifted at 4 and that's how she has got the scholarship, which included a(n) 5 for things like lunch, school uniform and music lessons．
Alice became friends with Jane and would 6 talk to her at lunch．She did it that way in order to avoid the other kids 7 her．
On her birthday last month, she 8 her new friend to her birthday party, but Jane said she couldn't come．Alice wanted her to be 9 so much that she 10 on her coming．Eventually, the girl said,“I don't have any 11 clothes that I could wear at your birthday party．”After a brief pause, the girl remembered,“I have a 12 from my piano performance,”and asked,“Could I 13 a skirt from you?”
Alice was happy that her friend would be 14 to come and hurried home to ask her Mum 15 she could lend her friend one of her skirts．To her surprise, her Mum said,“No．”The daughter was very 16 and angrily said to her Mum,“ 17 I could, I would give my friend all my clothes．”The Mother didn't understand why her daughter should have had such an outburst as she's normally very well 18 ．
Finally, Alice explained to her Mother her friend's 19 ．Her Mother immediately changed her mind and said,“Yes．”She also encouraged her daughter not to feel like she should secretly be friends with Jane but to feel proud of her 20 with her．
So the true friendship seeks to give, not to take; to help, not to be helped; to minister, not to be ministered unto．真正的友谊追求的是给予，而不是索取；是帮助别人，而不是被人帮助；是为人服务，而不是被人服务。
