　　It was Christmas 1961．I was teaching in a small town where my twenty-seven third graders eagerly 　　1　　 the great day gift-giving in advance．

　　Each day the children produced some new 　　2　　－string of popcorn, hand-made trinkets, and German bell．Through it all a girl remained alone, watching from a distance, 　　3　　 miles away．I wondered what would happen to this quiet child, once so happy, now suddenly so 　　4　　．I hoped the festivities would 　　5　　 her．But nothing did．The students made the fried marbles(油炸玻璃弹子)and competed with one another to bring the 　　6　　 ones．

　　The day of gift-giving finally came．We cheered over our handiwork as the presents were 　　7　　．All along, she sat quietly watching．To see her smile, I had made a special bag for her．She opened it so slowly and carefully．I waited but she 　　8　　．I had not passed through the wall of isolation she had 　　9　　 around herself．

　　After school I sat down in a chair, hardly 　　10　　 of what was happening, when she came to me with outstretched hands, bearing a small white box, and slightly soiled(弄脏), as though it had been held many times by 　　11　　, childish hands．She said nothing．“For me?” I asked．She said not a word, but 　　12　　 her head．I took the box and cautiously opened it．There inside, glistening green, a fried marble 　　13　　 from a golden chain．Then I looked into that eight-year-old 　　14　　 and saw the question in her dark brown eyes．　　15　　 a flash I knew－she had made it for her mother, who had died just three weeks before and would never hold her or brush her hair or 　　16　　 her childish joys or sorrows．

　　I 　　17　　 it when I whispered, “Oh, Maria, it is so beautiful．Your mother would 　　18　　 it．” Neither of us could stop the 　　19　　．She threw herself into my arms and we wept together．And for that brief moment I became her mother, for she had given me the greatest 　　20　　 of all：her trust and love．

　　Last weekend, my kids along with few other kids from the neighborhood volunteered to help me wash my car．My 10-year-old daughter came up with the idea of 　　1　　 other people's cars as well．It was pretty 　　2　　 outside and I had no plans to 　　3　　 being in the bright sun．She 　　4　　 wanted to give lemonade(柠檬汽水)to passers-by for free．I had seen little kids 　　5　　　and sell fresh lemonade for a small cost but not free．Although I felt 　　6　　, I decided to help her．

　　　　7　　 she asked me, “What if we 　　8　　 this a smile car wash?” I couldn't hold back my tears and 　　9　　 her and the other kids to go outside the house and come up with 　　10　　 ideas．While I kept myself busy in drying the car, the gang walked up to me with a(n)　　11　　　with beautiful images of smiles．They had “Free Car Wash” written on it and the 　　12　　 of their exercise was “smile”．It was pretty neat to see a team of kids ranging 5-11 years with the 　　13　　 to do something for others．

　　All that seemed 　　14　　 and came right from their heart．Nothing seemed to 　　15　　 to them：their playtime, the heat outside－they just wanted to 　　16　　 others and do something nice in the community!

　　I helped them make some fresh lemonade and brought out some additional 　　17　　 to help clean cars．Passers-by were 　　18　　 and one even shouted back to them saying “God Bless You, my kids…” One of them even tried giving them 5 dollars, which they refused．A pretty heartwarming 　　19　　!

　　I feel blessed by being 　　20　　 by such wonderful and loving souls．
