I have enjoyed this memory for many years - with gratitude for such an act of kindness.

“You probably don’t remember me,” she began, “   36   I have come back to apply for Graduation with Distinction.” And then she   37   a piece of paper from her bag and gave it to me to read. It was my   38__, but I didn’t remember writing it.

As the Assistant Director of the Honors Programs at the university, one of my   39   was to review student transcripts (成绩报告单) to make sure they met   40   for continuing in Honors. It was not uncommon for freshmen to have a rough start and be   41   that they could no longer continue in Honors after their first semester (学期).

Finally, Alice explained to her Mother her friend’s  54 .  Her Mother immediately changed her mind and said, “Yes.” She also encouraged her daughter not to feel like she should secretly be friends with Jane but to feel proud of her  55  with her.

Nowadays, a hospital always manages to keep its beds full. This is good on the one hand, and it’s bad on   36  hand.
One day, I went to see a sick friend at the hospital. I first went to the   37  desk, where I could get a permit to visit the patient.
  38  I could ask which room my friend was in, the lady set down my name, age, filled out a form and   39  a bell. I was just about to tell her what I was coming for when two men arrived with a wheelchair,   40   me in it and pushed me down the hall.

“When he comes,” one man said, “we’ll   42  him up to your room.”
In a minute I   43  myself in a small room. In no time they undressed me and covered some other things   44  me. One man said “If you need anything, press the button.”
“I want to get my   45   back.” I begged.
“Oh, you can   46    us,” a voice said, “Even if the   47  happens, we will see that your wife will get everything.” They left and locked the door   48   them.
I was trying to think of how to escape by the door when Dr. Ward came in with several of his   49 .
“Thank God you finally came,” I said.
“It hurts that badly?” he asked.
“No, on the contrary, I am not ill   50 .”

If we were to keep a record of all the things we worried about during a given period of time，we would discover—in reviewing them—that the great majority of our     16     never come to pass. This means that most of the time we     17     to worrying，even the constructive（建设性的）kind that prompts us to try to come up with a     18     to what is troubling us，is wasted.     19   ，we not only caused ourselves unnecessary mental pain，but also    20   valuable minutes and hours that could have been spent elsewhere.
To     21     this，it is often necessary to subject（使……遭受）potential     22     of worry to the coldly objective.

Toscanini looked with total     29      at the man．Then he    30     kindly and placed an arm around his shoulders．“My friend，”the maestro replied，“do not worry about it．The note E-flat does not    31   anywhere in the music that you will be    32   this evening．”
The next time we find ourselves in the middle of     33     about some matter，we might be wise to    34    and ask ourselves what the odds（几率）are of the problem really coming to    35   .We may be able to go on to something more constructive．
