Angels
My friend Heather mentioned that she had never seen an Angel. Then I remembered the 36 I had with my sister Sandra earlier this week.
This will be Sandra’s first Christmas without her husband. This summer he died in her arms. On Thursday, she was in the store 　37　 for an ideal card for her two sons and daughter. Time passed by quickly as she 　38 the many choices. She wanted a card that sent something special to each of them, 　39 she knew they would have a(n) 　40 place in their heart this holiday season.
Finally! She found the one that expressed the 　41 feeling. The words expressed the feelings that she wished to share. However, a sharp pain pierced(穿透) her heart when she realized that the card was 　42 “mom and dad.” She stood there, 　43 it close for a long time, unable to move from the 　44 . Tears began to run down her cheeks.
“Is there something I can do for you?” a 　45 voice asked. She 　46 to face a stranger, a woman, who was looking at her with 　47 and concern. “Uh…oh...OH!” Sandra responded, “I can’t give this card to my children because…because my husband died and this is the 　48 card.”
Hearing this, the stranger’s face softened with sympathy(同情) and love. She reached out and　49 my sister into her arms, giving her unspoken permission to cry in the protection of her embrace(拥抱). She 　50 held my sister until her calmness　51 . “Thank you for listening to me cry on,” was what my sister said when all was better. “You are welcome, and I am so sorry for your 　52 ,” the stranger answered and said goodbye to her.
During her telling of this event I was feeling 　53 that I hadn’t been there. My sister needed me and a stranger had to do my 　54 . “You know,” she went on, “a friend suggested that it was like meeting with an Angel.” My 　55 disappeared in an instant. My sister required an Angel, and I think that is exactly what she got.

Some years ago when I was in my first year in college, I heard Salome Bey sing for the first time. The moment was exciting. Salome’s   36 filled the room and brought the theater to life. I was so   37  that I decided to write an article about her.
I   38  Salome Bey, telling her I was from Essence magazine, and that I wanted to meet her to talk her career. She   39  and told me to come to her studio next Tuesday. When I hung up, I was scared out of my mind. I   40  I was lying. I was not a writer at all and hadn’t even written a grocery list.
I interviewed Salome Bey the next Tuesday. I sat there   41 , taking notes and asking questions that all began with, “Can you tell me…” I soon realized that   42  Salome Bey was one thing, but writing a story for a national magazine was just impossible. The   43  was almost unbearable. I struggled for days   44  draft after draft. Finally I put my manuscript (手稿) into a large envelope and dropped it into a mailbox.
It didn’t take long. My manuscript   45 . How stupid of me! I thought. How could I   46  in a world of professional writers? Knowing I couldn’t   47  the rejection letter, I threw the unopened envelope into a drawer.
Five years later, I was moving to California. While   48  my apartment, I came across the unopened envelope. This time I opened it and read the editor’s letter in   49 :
Dear Ms Profit,
Your story on Salome Bey is fantastic. Yet we need some   50  materials. Please add those and return the article immediately. We would like to   51  your story soon.
Shocked, it took me a long time to   52 . Fear of rejection cost me dearly. I lost at least five hundred dollars and having my article appear in a major magazine. More importantly, I lost years of   53  writing. Today, I have become a full – time writer. Looking back on this   54 , I learned a very important lesson: You can’t   55  to doubt yourself.

Little Chad was a shy,   21   young man. One day he came home and told his mother that he’d like to make a Valentine for everyone in his class. Her heart sank. She thought, “I wish he 22   do that！” because she had   23   the children when they walked home from school. Her Chad was always   24   them. They laughed and   25  on to each other. But Chad was never   26 . However, she decided she would   27   with her son. So she bought the paper and glue and crayons(蜡笔). For three weeks, night after night, Chad painstakingly made 35 valentines.
Valentine’s Day   28 , and Chad was   29   himself with excitement. He carefully put them in a bag and walked out of the door. His mother decided to bake him his favorite cookies and   30   them nice and warm with a cool glass of milk when he came home. She just knew he would be   31   and maybe that would ease(减轻) the pain a little. It hurt her to think that he wouldn’t get many valentines-maybe   32 at all.
That afternoon she had the cookies and milk on the table. When she heard the children outside, she looked out of the window. Sure enough,   33 they came, laughing and having the   34   time. And, as   35 , there was Chad at the back. He walked a little faster than usual. She   36   expected him to burst into   37   as soon as he got inside. His arms were   38 , she noticed, and when the door opened she choked back the tears.
“Mommy has some cookies and milk for you,” she said.
But he hardly heard her words, he just   39   right on by, his face aglow(满面红光), and all he could say was, “Not a one. Not a one.”
Her heart sank.
And then he added, “I didn’t forget a one, not a   40   one!”
