All the World Asks
On my first day in a college classroom, I felt like an overgrown child returning to civilization after having been lost in the forest for thirty years. There I sat, 36 enough to be a father to most of the students in the room, 37 unconfident enough to be their baby brother. We were crowded elbow (肘部) to elbow, listening to a 38 who looked even younger than the students. I felt uncomfortable and out of place as the professor carefully 39 what she expected us to learn.
As I listened, I couldn't help but 40 of my own oldest daughter who was now beginning her first year in 41 , just like me. I remembered how hard I had tried to help build self-confidence in her and my other children. So why did I suddenly feel like a scared 42 myself'? When I walked out of that classroom, I had serious 43 about my ability to make it 44 college. Not until late that night did my thinking 45 . It was a long-distance 46 from my daughter, my fellow college freshman, that did the trick. She spoke on the phone about the doubts, worries and anxieties she was 47 . She was certain that she'd never 48 at college. How 49 her worries sounded!
In my most confident parental 50 , I said, “Doing your best is all the world 51 .” The next day in class, those words still repeated in my head. When the professor raised a 52 for the class, nobody, including me, 53 to answer. When I looked around at the 54 and uncertainty on the young faces in that room, I knew 55 what I had to do: my best. That's all the world asks. So I raised my hand, and the professor called my name. I spoke.

“No,” I answered 52 .
She bent and whispered in my ears.
“Your back is bunched because you’ve got a pair of wings from the angels.”
I was 53 . I looked into your eyes and her 54 touched my heart. From that day on, I started to learn to 55 myself because I have the wings of an angel and a kind – hearted friend.
