Not 
too long ago ,an incident that happened at Walt Disney touched me greatly. A guest 36 out of our Polynesian Village resort（度假胜地）at Walt Disney was asked how she 37 her visit .She told the front-desk clerk she had had a (n) 38 vacation ,but was heartbroken about 39 several rolls of Kodak color film she had not yet 40 .At that moment she was particularly 41___over the loss of the pictures she had shot at our Polynesian Luau , 42 this was a memory she especially treasured.
Now ,please understand that we have no written service rules 43 lost photos in the park. 44 ,the clerk at the front desk 45 Disney’s idea of caring for our 46 . She asked the woman to leav
e her a couple rolls of 47 film ,promising she would take care of the rest of our show at Polynesian Luau.
Two weeks later the guest received a 48 at her home .In it were photos of all the actors of our show, 49 signed by each performer. There were also 50 of the public procession（游行队伍）and fireworks in the park ,taken by the front-desk clerk in her
own 51____ after work. I happened to know this 52 because this guest wrote us a letter .She said that 53 in her life had she received such good service from any business.
Excellent 54 does not come from policy (政策性的)handbooks .It comes from people who
55 — and from a culture that encourages and models that attitude.

A lesson in caring
It was a cold evening. My daughter and I were walking up Broadway. I didn’t notice a guy sitting inside a cardboard box. But Nora 36 . She wasn’t even four, but she 37 at my coat and said, “That man’s cold. Daddy, can we take him home?”
I don’t remember my 38 . But I do remember a sudden 39 feeling inside me. I had always been delighted at how much my daughter noticed in her 40 , whether it was 41 flying or children playing. But now she was noticing 42 and beggary.
A few days later, I saw an article in the newspaper about volunteers who picked up a food package from a nearby school on a Sunday morning and 43 it to an elderly person. It was quick and easy. I signed us up. Nora was 44 about it. She could understand the importance of food, so she could easily see how 45 our job was. When Sunday came, she was ready, but I had to 46 myself to leave the house to fetch the food package. On my way to the school, I fought an urge (强烈愿望) to turn 47 . The Sunday paper and coffee were waiting for me at home. Why do this? 48 , we phoned the elderly person we’d been appointed. She 49 us right over.
The building was in a bad state. Facing us was a silver-haired woman in an old dress. She took the package and asked us to come in. Nora ran inside. I unwillingly followed. 50 inside, I saw that the department belonged to someone poor. Our hostess showed us some photos. Nora played and when it came time to say goodbye, we three hugged. I walked home 51 .
Professionals call such a(n) 52 “a volunteer opportunity”. They are opportunities and I’ve come to see. Where else but as volunteers do you have the opportunity to do something 53 that’s good for others as well as for yourself? Nora and I regularly serve meals to needy people and 54 clothes for the homeless. Yet, as I’ve 55 her grow over these past four years, I still wonder—which of us has benefited more?
