My son was badly hurt in a fire. After he
31
from a series of treatments, the doctors told him they would not do any operation for six months
32
it took long for the skin to stop shrinking (收缩). So, he had to return to college with a visible 10-inch
33
on his face.
I said to my son, “Keaton,
34
will pay any more attention to your scar
35
you do. If it does not bother you, it will not bother
36 .” He took my advice to heart and returned to school with his head
37
high — glad he was alive.
38 , everyone has scars and shortcomings. Some of you may spend much time thinking that people would like you better,
39
you looked different, or dressed differently, or could have a different and newer
40 .
But you see, like Keaton’s scar, people will only judge you by your looks, or your
41 , or your car, if you are judging yourself by these same false
42 .
One of my friends in college was very
43 . At first, when people met him, they noticed his
44
for about 10 seconds. This man felt
45
about himself and spent most of his time
46
about other people’s comfort and welfare.
47 , people ignored his looks. What people
48
was his kindness and his concern for them. He didn’t act in an ugly way so people didn’t treat him as an ugly man.
Therefore, concentrate on what you value
49
yourself, because if you can see that beautiful person, everyone you are in contact with will see the same
50 .

Thanksgiving Day was near. Lucy, the first grade teacher, gave her class a fun
36
--- to draw a picture of somebody or something for which they were
37
. When the students
38
their assignment, she found that most of them drew some pictures of their parents, teachers, brothers, sisters, friends or neighbors. “What
39
students! How wonderful the pictures are!” She thought.
Douglas, however, made a different kind of picture. He was a
40
boy. He didn’t act the same as others. He always seemed to be shy and __41__. He seldom __42__ with other children during the break __43__ they kindly invited him to. Lucy treated him very well. She always helped him and encouraged him to be confident and have a good time with his classmates. Yes, his picture was different. He just drew a __44__. Nothing else. His abstract image _45__ the imagination of his classmates. Whose hand could it be? One guessed it was a mother’s hand,for mother’s hand gives children warmth and __46__. Another child guessed it was a farmer’s hand, because farmers raise turkeys. Still others thought it was a police officer’s hand, because the police __47__ people and care for people. And so the discussion __48__.
When the children were discussing it, Lucy paused at Douglas’ desk, __49__, and asked him whose hand it was. The little boy murmured, “ It’s __50__, teacher.” Douglas was most thankful for her hand. She was __51__ and felt tears in her eyes. She thought of the times she had taken his hand and walked with him here or there. She __52__ how often she had said to him, “Take my __53__, Douglas. We’ll go outside.” or “Let me show you how to hold your pencil.” or “Let’s do this together.”
The story speaks of __54__ thankfulness. It also says something about teachers teaching and
parents parenting and friends showing friendship, and how much it means to the children like Douglas. They might not always say “__55__” out, but they’ll remember the hand that you reach out to give them love and be grateful to you always.

I moved to a new neighborhood two months ago. In the house with a large
36
across the road lived a taxi driver, a single parent with two school-age children. At the end of the day, he would
37
his taxi on the road. I
38
why he did not park it in the garage.
Then one day I learnt that he had another car in his garage. In the afternoon he would come home
39
work, leave his taxi and go out for his
40
affairs in his other car, not in his taxi. I felt it was
41
.
I was curious to see his personal car but did not make it until I
42
to be outside one evening two weeks
43
, when the garage door was
44
and he drove out in his “own” car: a Rolls-Royce(劳斯莱斯)! It shook me completely
45
I realized what that meant. You see, he was a taxi driver. But
46
inside, he saw himself as something else: a Rolls-Royce owner and a(n)
47
. He drove others in his taxi but himself and his children in his Rolls-Royce. The world looked at his taxi and
48
him a taxi driver. But for him, a taxi was just something he drove for a living. Rolls-Royce was something he drove for a(n)
49
.
We go to bed every night and
50
every morning as parents or children, not as bankers, CEOs or professors. We go for a
51
as close friends or go for a vacation as a
52
. We love life as it is. Yet often, we base our entire happiness and success on how high we
53
the social ladder—how much bigger and better a
54
we have. And we ignore our Rolls-Royce, by keeping it dusty in our garage. We should focus more on
55
we are than what we do!
