Once, a king showed two men a large basket(篮子) in the garden. He told them to fill it with water from a well(井). After they  1  their work, he left them, saying, “When the sun is down, I will come and see your work.”
At last, one of them said, “What’s the use of doing this foolish(愚蠢的) work? We can   2  fill the basket.”  The other man answered, “That is   3  of your business.” The first man said. “You may do as you like, but I’m not going to work at something so   4 .” He   5  his bucket and went away. The other man said no word, and kept on carrying  6 . Finally, the well was almost   7 .
As he poured(倒) the last bucket(桶) of water into the basket, he saw a bright thing in it. He picked it   8 . It was a beautiful gold ring. Just then the king came.   9 _ he saw the ring, he knew that he had found the kind of man he wanted.

My earliest memory of dad is grabbing (抓住) his hand while we walked together. As I    older, I remembered my father and I listened to many basketball games on the radio. I always fell asleep    the game was over. When I woke up in the morning, the score sheet (计分表) with the    score on it would be lying next to me. I’ll always remember that.

On cold mornings my father would drive his bread truck by the house. I used to ride on the floor of that bread truck as he delivered (分送) the bread to the stores. The   and the warmth from the bread made me hungry and kept me warm. I’ll always remember that.

My father would attend all my games. One night before an important game my father told me    that he wouldn’t be able to watch the game because he had to deliver the bread and it was a three-hour    from his route. The next day as the game time drew near, I thought about my dad. I happened to look across the field and   saw his bread truck pulling into the stadium (体育场). He tried to make the game. I’ll always remember that.

Years later I became a teacher. I’ll never forget the voice on the phone early one morning telling me dad had just been killed in a traffic accident. I could hear my heart beat in my ears. I    up the phone and went back to my bedroom. After that nothing was very important to me. One day I was on the playground when a little boy walked up to me and grabbed my hand. His hand held mine the    way I used to hold my father’s by the last two fingers. At that moment I found my    in life again. You see even though my father was gone, he left something with me. He left me his smile, spirit and touch. My purpose was to use those gifts as he did. From that day I started. I’ll always remember that!
