In front of my daughter Sindu, was a bowl filled with cabbage．She hated cabbage．She only sat there in silence with tears 1 her eyes．
“
Sindu, darling, why don't you 2 a little?Your mom will shout at me．”
Sindu wiped(擦)her 3 with the back of her hand．
“
OK, Dad．I'll eat, just a little．”Then Sindu said,“Dad, if I eat it all, will you give me 4 I want?”
“
Yes, within reason．”
5 she began to eat．It took her almost half an hour to finish the 6 Then she came up to me and said,“Dad, I want to have my head shaved(刮、剃)!”
“
Sindu, why don't you 7 something else?If we see you with a clean-shaven head, we will be 8 ,”I said．
“
But, Dad, you promised!Now, you are going back on your words．”
I had to 9 my promise．Sindu had all her hair cut off．She looked beautiful．
On Monday morning, I took her to school．10 when we arrived, a boy got out of a car, and shouted,“Sindu, please wait for me!”
Guess what?The boy had 11 hair either．
“
Sir, your daughter is 12 !”a man got out of the car and said．“That boy is my son, Harish．He has cancer．He lost his hair 13 he got ill．Sindu cut hers off so Harish felt less 14 She's a special girl．”
I stood for a while,“My little girl, you 15 me how selfless(无私的)real love is!”

How are you feeling today?Do you want to keep 1 ?Exercise often, please．If you usually go to work by bus, from now on you'd better go to work by bike or 2 ．If you always 3 late in the morning and only eat supper every day, I think you should have the clock wake you up 4 and do some morning exercises 5 ．You can breathe the fresh air and have a 6 diet(饮食)．Do you like to eat 7 ?For example, potato chips, hamburgers or hot dogs?Sure they're 8 ．But I think you should eat more 9 and fruits instead of them．Too much junk food(拉圾食品)is not 10 for you．
Three soldiers were on their way home from the war．They arrived at a small village, they were very tired and 1 , but they had no food or money．The only thing they did have was a cooking pot(锅)．
The soldiers built a small cooking fire, 2 their pot on it, and poured in some water．When a few villagers asked what they were doing, one of the soldiers answered that he was making stone soup．A few more villagers walking by stopped to 3 what was goingon when they heard about it．
“Any soup needs salt and pepper,”the first soldier said, 4 some children ran to fetch salt and pepper．“Stones can be used to prepare good soup, but tomatoes would 5 it so much better,”the second soldier added．One woman said,“Why, I think I have a tomato or two!”She ran to get the tomatoes．
“Some cabbage would be a proper choice for a good stone soup!”said the third soldier．Another woman said,“I think I can probably find some cabbage,”and 6 she ran．
“If only we had a bit of beef and some potatoes, this soup would be fit for a rich man's 7 ．”The villagers thought it over, then ran to fetch what they had in their homes．A rich man's soup, and all from a few stones!It seemed like 8 !
The soldiers said,“If only we had a little milk, this soup would be fit for a king!”And so other villagers 9 to get some milk．
“The soup is ready,”said the cooks,“and all will 10 it, but first we need to set the tables．”Some of the villagers said,“Such a great soup would be better 11 some bread and cakes,”so they brought the 12 two things and the meal was 13 by all．Never had there been such a 14 meal．Never had the villagers had such delicious soup, and all made from stones! They ate and drank and danced well into the night．
In the morning, the villagers gathered to say goodbye．“Many thanks to you,”they said,“for we shall 15 go hungry now that we have learned how to make soup from stones．”
