Not long before，my daughler,s shoes were scratched(划破)with a knife．She burst illto
tears。I took them to the shoemakel,s．
The young apprentice(学徒)glanced at the 21 and said，“Nothing I can do except
22 the upper．”
His master looked at them and said，“If you 23 me，1 will add more scratches on both the shoes．”
1 was 24 and asked why．
He explained，“As if the opening were made 25 for a special style．”
I didn’t fully understand him， 26 I deeided to leave thc shoes。
Two days later i dropped by from work to 27 the shoes． I found more scratches on each
shoe；all the openings were patched(缝补)by soft red leather；the stitches(针脚)were twisted
with the appearance looking more 28 and interesting than ever．I couldn，t help praising the
master,s 29 ．
Another time，my sister,s blouse was torn，leaving a large opening．My wife checked it
30 and then said，“Let me take it home and 31 it．”

ice crystal(水晶)；attached to it was a snowman made of flowery rags．I sighed with 33．
“It,s amazing!”
“1 was 34 by that shoemaker．Patches are supposed to be 35 ．but a skilJful craftsman(工匠)can make it take on a kind of 36 ，”replied my wife．
Her words inspired me more：perfection is impossible to achieve in 37 ；patches appear
in the 38 of injury，disability or disease．Since you c an，t change the existence of wound．you
should not 39 people,s sympathy by disclosing the wound，which is meaningless．Just sew the

One cold night，I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco． There I was walking home around one o’clock in the morning after a 26 practice at the theatre． With the opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines by heart．I was having 27 handling my part-time job at the bank in the daytime and my acting at night at the same time． As I walked I thought seriously about 28 both acting and San Francisco．I had 29 too much of city life．
As 1 walked down the 30 streets under the tall buildings，I felt very small and cold, so I began 31 both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers．Very few people were still out 32 a few homeless people under blankets．
About a block from my 33 , I heard a sound behind me． I 34 quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun． The street was empty．All I saw was a shining streetlight． Still，the noise had made me 35 , so I started to run faster． Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I 36 what the noise had been．It had been my wallet 37 to the sidewalk．
Suddenly I wasn’t cold or tired any more．I ran out of the door and back to where I'd heard the noise．Although I searched the sidewalk 38 for 15 minutes，my wallet was 39 to be found．
Just as 1 was about to quit the 40 , I heard the garbage truck stop to the sidewalk next to 41 ．When a voice came from the inside, “Alisa Camacho?”I thought I was 42 ．How could this man know my name? The door opened and out jumped a small blonde man with an amused look in his eyes, “Is this 43 you’re looking for?” He asked, holding up something like a wallet．
It was already 3 am． by the time I got into bed． I couldn’t get much sleep，but I had got my wallet back． I also had got back some 44 of city life． I realized the city couldn’t be a bad place 45 people were willing to help each other．

Many years ago, I owned a service station and roadhouse on the main road between Melbourne and Adelaide.
One very cold, wet night at about 3:30 a.m., there was a 36 on the front door of our house. A young man, wet from 37 to toe, explained that he had 38 out of petrol about 30 km up the road. He had left his pregnant(怀孕的) wife and his two children 39 at the car and said that he would hitchhike(搭便车) back.
Once I had 40 a can with petrol, I took him back to his car where his two-year-old and four-year-old children were both 41 ,saying that they were cold. Once the car had started, I suggested that he 42 me back.
Before leaving, I had turned the heater 43 in the roadhouse, so that when we went in, it was nice and 44 .While the little ones played and ran 45 ,I prepared bread and butter for the children, and hot chocolate for the 46 .
It was about 5 a.m. before they 47 .The young fellow asked me how much he 48 me and I told him that the petrol pump(加油泵) had 49 $15.He offered to pay “call-out fee”,but I wouldn’t accept it.

Dear son,
The day that you see me old and I am already not in good health, have patience and try to understand me.

If, when I speak to you, I 2 the same things thousand and one times, do not 3 me, listen to me. When you were small, I had to read to you thousand and one times the same story until you got to sleep. When I do not want to have a 4 , neither shame me nor scold me. Remember when I had to chase（追逐） you with thousand excuses I 5 , in order that you wanted to bathe.

And when someday I say to you that I do not want to 10 any more ---- that I want to rest forever, do not get 11 . Someday you will understand.
Try to understand that my age is not lived but survived. Some day you will discover that, despite（尽管） my mistakes, I always wanted the 12 thing for you and that I tried to prepare the way for you. You must not feel sad, angry or impotent( 无可奈何 ) for seeing me 13 you. You must be next to me, try to understand me and to help me as I did it when you 14 living. Help me to walk, help me to end my way with love and 15 .
I love you, Son.
