Last year I was put into a lower-level math class at school. The reason I was in this class had

The only problem with being in this class was that I was   23  by "at-risk" students, who did not perform well in school and were   24   in trouble with the school and the law. On Monday mornings, the kids talked about what they had done during the past   25  . I tried not to listen, but it was almost   26  not to. I heard things in that classroom that shocked me.   27  
the teacher was in the room, that didn't stop my classmates from   28  their stories of drugs and violence.
­­­­      29   I was tired of their rude words. I even began to   30  the fact that I had to be there.

My classmates gradually became more than just annoying kids to me. They began to feel like family, and I was learning to love them in a way I   36  thought possible.
I now see that praying is such a   37   act. When I pray for those around me, it also   38  
my life, and it changes my understanding of others. I realized God's blessings enabled me to see the world through   39  eyes. The prayers I said for others   40  to help me the most.

How can we all get more laughter into our lives? Here is what the experts suggest:
 【小题1】Nancy Alguire, a teacher in Clifton Park, N. Y., was once painfully shy and had a hard time laughing. Then she married a circus clown (小丑). “I became interested in the clowns,” she recalls “One day I put on a costume and paint my face. That afternoon my whole life changed. I learned to laugh and enjoy life in a way I had never done before.”  【小题2】To this day, she still makes it a rule to be with people who enjoy life and laughing.
 【小题3】 It doesn’t take you too much time and can be easy. Collect favorite cartoons and jokes. Also, keep a paper for writing down humor you find in everyday life. “Good ideas come and go fast, you have to catch them quickly or they are gone,” says Virginia Tooper.
Laugh when you need it most. “ 【小题4】 ” says comedian Bill Cosby. “And once you find laughter, no matter how painful your situation might by, you can survive it,” he insists.
Gray Alan, a sociology professor at the University of Minnesota, claims that laughter is a skill we can all gain – because it comes naturally.   【小题5】Just remember: we are just here for a period, so get a few laughs.

In a way I can see what you mean,even though I don’t______ your point of view.

A.agree                 B.permit                C.recognize                  D.share
