There is a small shop about 200 meters from where I live that sells groceries, meat and other basic necessities. About 10 years ago, there was a beggar who would go into the shop every day and ask the owner for a    36  . The owner,   37   he would love to help, simply didn’t have any jobs available, so he kept   38   the man’s request.
This situation continued    39   for a few months, until the owner    40    to give the homeless man a job which    41  sweeping outside the shop. Every single day from 5 am, the homeless man was there doing the very    42  he could for the    43  , even though it did earn him some pennies.    44   , the owner saw how good a job the man was doing and gave him a job working    45  a cashier. He was watched closely to make sure that he didn’t    46  any of the money received from the sales. He was still homeless, after all. The homeless man did a/an    47  job as a cashier for over 2 years, and did such a good job that he was promoted to    48   the finances for the whole shop.
To my    49  , this was the arrangement up until 2 years ago, when the owner     50   . In his will, he only had one    51   , to give the whole shop to the now stable, “homeless” man. Now, I could walk into that shop and see him working as hard as   52  , with his own business that is still   53   and active 10 years after getting his job as a sweeper.
From this story, we can probably get the inspiration: work hard and give everything your best effort, even if it isn’t your    54   situation, it very well may turn out to    55  some day in the future.

Rocky Lyons was five years old when his mother, Kelly, was driving along the country road with him. He was asleep on the front seat of their truck, with his feet resting on her lap. As his mom drove carefully down the winding country road, she turned onto a narrow bridge. The truck hit a rock and slid off the road. She attempted to bring it back up onto the road by pressing hard on the gas pedal and turning the steering wheel to the left. But Rocky’s foot got caught between her leg and the steering wheel and she lost control of the truck.[ X.JTYJY.COM/]
The truck fell into a 20-foot ravine(峡谷). When it hit bottom, Rocky woke up. “What happened, Mama?” he asked. “Our wheels are pointing toward the sky.”
Kelly was seriously wounded and blinded by blood. “I’ll get you out, Mama,” announced Rocky, who had surprisingly escaped injury. He climbed out from under Kelly, slid through the open window and tried to yank(用力拉)his mother out. But she didn’t move.
“Just let me sleep,” begged Kelly, who was out of consciousness. Rocky insisted, “Mom, you can’t go to sleep.”
Rocky managed to push Kelly out of the truck and told her he’d climb up to the road and stop a car to get help. Fearing that no one would be able to see her little boy in the dark, Kelly refused to let him go alone. Instead they slowly moved up to the road. The pain was so great that Kelly wanted to give up, but Rocky wouldn’t let her.
Rocky kept repeating the inspirational phrase, “I know you can, I know you can.” When they finally reached the road, Rocky broke into tears seeing his mother’s torn face clearly for the first time. Waving his arms and shouting, “Please stop!” the boy stopped a truck. His mother was sent to hospital.
It took 8 hours to rebuild Kelly’s face. She looks quite different today---“I used to have a straight long nose, thin lips and high cheekbones; now I’ve got a flat cheeks and much bigger lips”--- but she has few scars and has recovered from her injuries.
Rocky’s heroics were big news. Everyone was surprised at this little boy’s power. “It’s not like I wanted it to happen,” The boy explained. “ I just did what anyone would have done.” “If it weren’t for Rocky, I’d have died,” said his mother.

When I was about 6 years old I lived in Kenya. There was a lot of      and there were always street children on the roads asking for money. There was such a big divide between those children and me and I grew up very aware of being so     .
We had a wonderful and very kind driver, John, who had been working with my     for decades. He used to take us to and from school. One day while we were stopped in traffic a young street child, probably no more than 10 years old,     with a friendly greeting, “Hi, John!”
He      the car and shook John’s hand,. John then gave him a little bit of money and waved him off with a smile before we carried on our way to school.
I had watched the whole incident completely     . John had a large family himself and had to work very hard to make ends    .I knew that he didn’t have any spare money. So, of course, at that age I couldn’t understand why he would be giving money to the child.

It was probably at that    that I understood what kindness really was. A person who was in a difficult situation himself still found some money to     for a child who needed it. Even at the age of 6 that had such a great impact on me. I didn’t have any money, but I wanted to     too. So when my grandfather gave us a chocolate bar after dinner every Friday, I would          mine up so I could give it to John to give to his friend.

I was parked in front of the mall wiping off my car.I had just come from the car wash and was waiting for my wife to get out of work.
Coming my way from across the parking lot was what society would consider a bum.From the looks of him, he had no car, no home, no clean clothes, and no money.There are times when you feel generous but there are other times that you just don't want to be bothered.This was one of those “don't want to be bothered times”.
“ I hope he doesn't ask me for any money,” I thought.
He didn't.He came and sat on the edge of the pavement in front of the bus stop but he didn't
look like he could have enough money to even ride the bus.After a few minutes he spoke.
“That's a very pretty car,” he said.
He was in rags but he had an air of dignity around him.His badly-grown blond beard kept more than his face warm.
I said, “thanks,” and continued wiping off my car.He sat there quietly as I worked.The expected plea(乞求) for money never came.As the silence between us widened, something inside said, “ask him if he needs any help.” I was sure that he would say “yes” but I held true to the inner voice.
“Do you need any help?” I asked.
He answered in three simple words that I shall never forget.We often look for wisdom in great men and women.We expect it from those of higher learning and achievements.I expected nothing but an outstretched dirty hand.He spoke the three words that shook me.
“Don't we all?” he said.
小题1:Why did the writer parked his car before the mall?
A.Because he wanted to pick up his wife.
B.Because he wanted to show off his car.
C.Because he wanted to wipe off his car.
D.Because he wanted to do some shopping.

For most people, graduation is an exciting day, but my graduation day was not.
I remember that weekend two years ago. Family and friends had flown in from across the country to   36  the celebration. But just like everyone else in my class, I had watched the  37   turn from bad to worse in my senior year. Almost all of us graduates had degrees, but very uncertain   38 .
The weeks ahead weren’t   39 . I knew my small university town couldn’t offer me any opportunities,   40  I packed up my car and drove to Southern California to find work. But what I thought would take a   41   dragged into two, and then four, and 100 job applications later, I found myself in the exact same   42  as I was before.
You know that feeling when you wake up in   43  ? That feeling became a constant in my life. Days felt like weeks, weeks like months, and those many months felt like everlasting   44 . And the most annoying part was no matter how much I tried, I just couldn’t seem to make any   45  .
So what did I do to keep my good sense? I decided to    46 . Something about putting words on a page made everything seem a little clearer — a little brighter. Something about writing gave me    47 . And if you want something  48 enough, sometimes a little hope is all you   49 !
I put my thoughts into a children’s book. Beyond the River was the story of an unlikely hero, a little fish, who   50  to give up his dream.
And then one day, without any sort of writing degree or contacts in the writing world — just a lot of hard work and determination —I was offered a   51  contract for my first book! After that, things slowly began to fall into   52  . I was offered a second book deal. Then, a few months later, I got an interview with the Walt Disney Company and was   53  shortly after.
Don’t give up. Even if things look   54  now, don’t give up. If you work hard, things will always get better. Often times our dreams lie in wait just a little further upstream ... all we need is the   55   to push beyond the river.
