One day, a poor boy who was trying to pay his way through school by selling goods door to door found that he only had one dime left. He was hungry so he decided to 　31 a meal at the next house.

However, he lost his 　32 when a lovely young woman opened the door. Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water. She thought he looked 　33 so she brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it slowly, and then asked, “How much do I owe you?”

“You don’t owe me 34 ,” she replied. “Mother has taught me never to accept 　35 for a kindness.” He said, “Then I 　36 you from the bottom of my heart.” As Howard Kelly left that house, he not only felt stronger　 37 , but it also increased his faith in God and human race. He was about to give up and 　38 before this point.

39 later the young woman became critically 　40 . The local doctors were baffled. They finally sent her to the big city, where specialists can be 　41 to study her rare disease. Dr. Howard Kelly, now famous was called in for the consultation. When he 42 the name of the town she came from, a strange light 43 his eyes. Immediately, he rose and went down through the hospital hall into her room. He 　44 her at once and determined to do his best to save her life. Form that day on, he gave special attention to her 45 .

After a long struggle, the battle was 　46 . Dr. Kelly requested the business office 　47 the final bill to him for approval. He looked at it and then wrote something on the side. The bill was sent to her room. She was afraid to open it because she was sure that it would take the rest of her life to 48 . Finally she looked, and the note on the side of the bill 49 her attention. She read these words…

The other day I was talking to a stranger on the bus; he told me that he had a good 　1 in Chicago and he wondered if, by any chance, I 　2 to know him . For a moment, I thought he might be 　3 　,but I could tell from the expression on his face that he was not. He was 　4 . I felt like saying that it was ridiculous (可笑的) to 　5　 that out of all the millions of people in Chicago I could possibly have ever bumped into his friend. But,　 6 , I just smiled and reminded him that Chicago was a very 　7 city. He nodded, and I thought he was going to be content to drop the subject and talk about something else. But I was wrong. He was silent for a few minutes, and then he 　8　 to tell me all about his friend.

His friend’s main 　9　 in life seemed to be tennis. He was an excellent tennis player , and he 　10　 had his own tennis court. There were a lot of people with swimming 　11 , yet there were only two people with private tennis court; his friend in Chicago was one of them. I told him that I knew several 　12　 like that, including my brother, who was doctor in California. He 　13　 that maybe there were more private courts in the country, than he 　14　 but he did not know of any others. Then he asked me 　15　 my brother lived in California. When I said Sacramento, he said that was a coincidence 　16　 his Chicago friend spent the summer in Sacramento last year and he lived next door to a 　17　 who had a tennis court in his backyard. I said I felt that really was a coincidence (巧合) because my next-door neighbour had gone to Sacramento last summer and had 　18　 the house next to my brother’s house. For a moment, we stared at each other, but we did not say anything.

“Would your friend’s name happen to be Roland Kirkwood?” I asked finally. He 　19 and said, “Yes. Would your brother’s name happen to be Dr Rey Hunter?” It was my 　20 to laugh. “Yes,” I replied.
