One summer several years ago, my family was enjoying a barbecue on the beach. After the barbecue, my father-in-law invited me to go fishing. Fishing was his hobby, but I   36 went fishing. We walked a little way along the beach and reached a rock by the shore, and I    37   the hook into the sea from there. Frankly speaking, I am a (n)   38 person, and although I had not felt a tug (猛拽) on the line, I reeled up the hook after five minutes or so. I had caught    39 . It was a starfish. It trembled uneasily when I   40 the hook from its ugly mouth. I threw the starfish back into the sea. After another five minutes I caught another starfish and I threw it back again.
After a while, I caught yet another starfish. That was 41 time, and this time I really got angry. I hit the starfish on the rock   42 throwing it into the sea. I was not in the   43 to continue fishing any more.
When I was   44 the fishing tools, I noticed a little girl looking at the starfish on the rock. We   45 looks with each other. The little girl spoke to me in a   46   voice. “Sir, would you mind if I   47 the starfish back into the sea?”“Not at all,” I replied. “"But you know, there are too many starfish in the sea, and they eat many shellfish.   48 , they look so ugly. I don't like them.”
“I understand,” said the little girl. “But if the starfish cannot get back to the sea, it will be   49 by the sun and die. My dead grandfather once told me that there are no living creatures that have no right to exist in the world. God   50 every creature because it was needed by nature. Poisonous snakes, spiders, and starfish were born into this world with a certain   51 for their existence.”
“All right, dear, please throw the starfish back into the sea,” I said to the little girl, feeling   52 . The girl picked up the starfish and gently put it into the sea, and she  53 at me and said, “Thank you, sir.”
Many people like "cute" creatures such as dogs, cats, and rabbits, while they tend to dislike “ugly” creatures such as snakes, spiders, and starfish. However, the “cuteness” and “ugliness” of things are decided   54 only on one’s personal opinions. There are no living creatures that have no 55  in the world-- this is what I learned from the little girl.

The farmer nodded in a neighborly 52 . I was filled with pride. James William’s son. Those three words had opened a door to an adult’s respect and trust.
That day I discovered that the good name my parents had 53 brought our whole family the respect of our neighbors. Everyone knew what to 54 from a Williams: a decent person who kept his word and respected himself 55 much to do wrong.
