　　Recently I was invited to a friend’s house for supper and had a meal I’d never had before!

All the friends 　26 were a little surprised. It’s not that Ben is unsociable, or a bad cook, 　27 it’s just that he never spends more than he has to. So how come he was inviting us round for a meal? Had he bought anything 　28 for his friends? He greeted us at the 　29 and showed us into his dining-room 　30 a laid table was waiting for us. “Nothing but the best for my friends!” said Ben. We all felt 　31 . What was he up to?

　　　 Ben returned with four bowls of hot soup. “It’s a 　32 of carrots, potatoes and tomatoes,” said Ben. The next course was also a little 　33 in that（因为）we didn’t quite know what it was again. “It’s just another mixture of vegetables.”

　　　 34 we ate, we chatted and finally the 　35 turned back to what we were eating. “Was there a recipe（食谱） for this,” asked Mary, “or did you make it up?” Ben put his 　36 down. What I cooked depended on what I could find.” Mary was 　 37 . “But you can find anything in the supermarkets these days.” “But there is less choice in what you can find 　38 the supermarkets,” he replied.

　　　 39 that we had all finished the food, Ben decided to tell the 　40 . He had read recently that supermarkets usually 　41 away 5 percent of their food every day. So Ben decided to look inside his local supermarket bins. There he found food that was slightly out of 　42 , boxes of thrown-away vegetables and fruit.

　　　 So Ben had successfully provided a 　43 for his friends, and made us 　44 the fact that there are many people who need the food, but the amount of food thrown away is enough to 　45 millions of people.

The professor said he wouldn’t attend the opening ceremony ____.

One summer in college, I was invited to be an instructor at a high school leadership camp.

I first   1  a boy under the tree on the first day of camp. His obvious   2   and shyness made him appear weak and lonely. Nearby, 200   3   campers were playing and joking, but the boy seemed to want to be anywhere   4   where he was.

I was instructed to care more about campers who might feel   5  . So I   6   him and said, “Hi, I’m Kevin. It’s nice to meet you. How are you?”

 7   a shaky voice he   8   answered, “Okay, I guess.”

I calmly asked him to join in the activities and   9  some new people. He quietly replied, “No, this is not really my thing.”

I could   10   that this whole experience was   11   to him. But I somehow knew it wouldn’t be right to   12   him, either. It was going to take more time and   13  .

The next day, I was leading camp songs for the campers. They eagerly participated. But the boy was just sitting alone,   14   out the window.

That evening at our nightly staff meeting, I made my   15  about him known. I asked them to pay special attention and spend time with him   16   they could.

The days flew by fast. When the “last dance” came, surprisingly, the boy from under the tree was now a shirtless dancing   17 . He owned the dance floor   18   meaningful time with others. I couldn’t’ believe it was him.

In that instant, I realized how easy it is to give a bit of   19  every day. You may never know how much each gesture may mean to someone else. I tell this story as   20   as I can, and I advise others to look out for their own “boy under the tree.”
