A young man was about to finish school. For a long time he had    36   to get a beautiful sports car. He knew his father could well    37   it, so he  told him that a sports car was all he wanted.

　　Then on the morning of his graduation（毕业）,he was called to his father's room. His father told him how    38   he was to have such a fine son, and told him how   39   he loved him. He handed his son a beautiful gift box.   40  , the young man opened the box and found a lovely Bible（圣经）with his name on it. Angrily, he raised his   41   to his father and said, "With all your money you give me a Bible? " He then   42   out of the house, leaving the Bible.

　　Many years passed and the young man was very    43   in business, and had a beautiful home and a wonderful family.    44   that his father was very old, he thought perhaps he should go to see him. He had not seen him    45   that graduation day. Before he could go, he received a    46   telling him that his father had died. He had to go home immediately and take   47   of the things that his father left him.

　　When he began to search through his father's important　papers, he saw the still new Bible,     48   as he had left　it years ago. He opened the Bible and began to   49    the pages. As he was reading, a car key with a tag（标牌）dropped from the back of the Bible. On the tag was the   50   of his graduation, and the words "PAID IN FULL". Sadness and regret（悔恨）filled his heart.

I remember the first time I met Alfred after years. He was sitting on a bench in the park. He looked very sad and cold. He hadn’t got a coat on and it started to rain. Usually, I don’t like to stop to speak to a stranger who looked like that. His shoes were well-cleaned and his clothes were quite smart, but he did not have an umbrella with him and he was getting wet in the rain. I stopped walking and said to him in a nice voice. “ Are you OK?” he looked up, and was surprised to see me. He cried out. “ Are you …” he couldn’t remember my name. I was also surprised. He was Alfred! “ I’m Tom, Alfred, what are you doing here?” I asked. He did not explain to me, but caught my hand, and asked how my life was like. I told him that I was out of job. I suggested that we go somewhere warm and dry.

So we found a café nearby and continued our conversation. I learned that he married with two children, and his wife was Sherry. I could not believe my ears. Twenty years ago his best friend was Linda, and Sherry was his worst enemy! They often had quarrels ( 争吵) and fights in the play.

Alfred told me that he became a businessman when he graduated from the school and owned two companies in the city. I asked him why he was sitting in the rain in the park. He said that he had just had a quarrel with Sherry, and acting in the same way as when she was young, threw him out of the door and locked him　out. He was young, threw him out of the door and locked him out. He was waiting for her to be calm and let him in again.
