  Martha had been working for Miller Laboratories for two years, but she was not happy there. Nothing significant had happened in the way of promotions or salary increases. Martha felt that her supervisor, a younger and less experienced person than she, did not like her. In fact, the supervisor often said unpleasant things to her.

  One day, while talking with her friend Marie, she mentioned low discouraged she was. Maria gave her the name of a cousin of hers who was director of Human Resources Department for a large chemical company. Martha called him the next day and set up an interview on her lunch hour.

  During the interview, Mr. Petri said, “You're just the kind of person we reed here. You're being wasted in your job. Give me a tail in a day or two. I'm sure we can find a place for you in our organization. ”Martha was happy. She almost danced out of the building.

  That afternoon, Ruth Kenny, her supervisor, saw that Martha had come in ten minutes late from her lunch hour and she said, “Oh, so you finally decided to come back to work today?”

Good-bye!”She took up her things and stormed out of the office.

  That night she called Marie and told her what had happened and then asked Marie, “Whet do you think?”

  “Well,” said Maria carefully,“are you sure about the other job?”

  “Well, not exactly, but…”

  Maria continued, “Will you be able to get a recommendation(推荐信) from Mrs. Kenny if you need one?”

  “A recommendation?… from Mrs. Kenny? ”hesitated Martha, in a worried tone.

  “Martha, I hope you didn't bum your bridges.”Maria said. “I think I would have handled it differently.”

  Letter to Editor of TV Weekly

  Dear Sir/Madam,

  I read Alison Burnham’s review of When we were 12, and I do not agree with her.I thought the programme was wonderful-I found the old news pictures really interesting-they helped to bring to life the stories the people were telling.

  The programme reminds me of many things from my own childhood.For example, one day when I was about five, I was going to school on the bus by myself(this was the late 1960s).My mother had given me exactly the right money for a return ticket.I held out my hand with the money in it-one big coin on top of one little coin.The bus conductor took the big top coin only and she gave me a ticket, but it was a pink one for a single journey.I needed a white one for a return journey, but I was too frightened to say anything.When school finished for the day, I couldn’t catch the bus home-I had to walk.As a grown-up, whenever I’ve been in a situation Where I need to say something or take some action, this early memory of my bus ride comes back to me, and I’m able to take control of the situation.

  I would like to say to the director, Bret Chrysler, carry on making this kind of programme.Too much TV these days is quiz shows and so-called “reality programmes”.I appreciate the human story that can make me laugh and cry.

Yours faithfully,

Chris Daniels

Even though it was only October, my students were already whispering about Christmas plans. With each passing day everyone became more  1  , waiting for the final school bell.

David was small boy in ragged clothes.

But something made David  5  .I can still remember he was always  6   a smile and willing to help. He always  7  after school to straighten chairs and mop the floor. We never talked much .He  8  just simply smile and ask what else  he could do, then thank me for letting him stay and slowly  9  home.

it to me, he said anxiously,“Open it.”I took the box form him, thanked him and slowly unwrapped
