I lived on a farm with my parents and my elder brothers and sisters when I was a little boy. We had the 36 to play and run wherever we wanted to go.
We often 37 games just by pretending we were cowboys. Sometimes we played hide-and-seek. One of us would 38 and the others would come and find him. I remember one 39 I hid behind some old wood in the cottage. All was 40 . I couldn’t hear a sound, just the wind 41 . The situation became tense (紧张的) 42 the possibility of someone finding me, and the longer I 43 , the more tense I became. 44 , I heard footsteps coming down the yard. My 45 beat fast and I stood 46 , frozen like a block of ice. I saw my brother getting closer and closer. When he saw me, he laughed 47 , shouting at the top of his voice so that 48 could hear him say, “Eh, I’ve 49 our Tommy!” I can still see the 50 on his face today. Afterwards he said he didn’t think I would hide there. I shrugged my shoulders and said, “Why, it’s a good place, isn’t it?”
I don’t have any 51 of these events, just memories, as we had no camera at that time. 52 it was a long time ago, I can see them now as if they 53 yesterday.
Now I live in town on a busy street. My girls don’t have the freedom that we 54 have to run off down the road and play whatever they want. Anyway, is it 55 to let children out of sight these days?

Russ was a lovable kid with a variety of communication challenges---a speech impediment (语言障碍), dyslexia (诵读困难), and auditory problems. __41__ today he is walking confidently, standing tall to make an acceptance __42__ for having been chosen one of the “Outstanding Young Citizens” in Ocean County, New Jersey __43__ his remarkable volunteer service in the town of Toms River.
As I listened, I closed my eyes. I found myself __44__ those memorable moments. My mind was full of warm images of Russ as a loving, caring youth, a gentle soul, __45__ his challenges. And now, as he stood at the platform, I knew his heart __46__ be racing. As Russ continued to speak, I thought about the fateful day when he was diagnosed with all those impairments(损伤) and how __47__ his tutors would be if they could see him today. Here he was at twenty-nine, being honored for ten years of service as a volunteer __48__. Russ was __49__ for organizing clothing for the homeless, teaching preschool children about fire safety, and for playing Santa Claus for very sick children by driving up in a fire truck.
Russ thanked his parents for providing him with dignity and for teaching him about morals. Then, pausing for a few seconds, he __50__ us by surprise by touching lovingly on the __51__ of his nephew, Austin. Austin was just three years old when he died from an incurable disease. At that moment, I had to close my eyes again __52__ a different set of tears ran down my cheeks. A silence __53__ the room as Russ owed his volunteer award to Austin. He __54__ his address by lifting the audience up with these words, “Austin taught me how to love.”
I have never thought of this day. __55__, no one had ever thought that Russ would make __56__ as the star of the football team, and he had never been voted “most likely to succeed,” but he __57__ to be a true “star” in his community. Russ became a man of strong character __58__ his unselfish service to others. With so many 
impairments, Russ now sees and acts __59__ with his heart. His words and deeds inspire everyone who knows him. It is Russ, our son, who has shown us what __60__ is.

We should show respect to everybody, especially our elders because they are ahead of us — in age, in wisdom and maturity, in experience and education. Our 51 have done a lot for us, directly or indirectly and most of us 52 everything to their kindness and love.
When we 53 them respect, whether it is by bowing to them, or 54 them with a smile, or offering them any help they need, it is one way of 55 our own love and gratitude to them. 56 , elders have also been through all the years you are 57 and know a little more about the world than you do.
It is 58 that you do not agree with the belief of your elders, but this is nothing new. All younger generations have always 59 with their elders and it is these differences that bring changes in human 60 . However much you disagree with them, give them credit for their 61 .
With changing times and 62 influences, youngsters no longer know what is interpreted as disrespect to elders. Youngsters should 63 express their views and if there are arguments, they should not 64 their voices.
If there is no space on sofas or chairs, children will immediately 65 their places, and sit on the carpet. In buses and trains, youngsters are 66 to give up their places to older people. This is not a 67 of who has more rights. It is simply that those who are younger have the strength to bear 68 , or tolerate unpleasantness, so it is natural to show consideration to those who are older and perhaps at a 69 disadvantage.
When you do simple things as a mark of respect, elders become 70 that youngsters care for them, and they respond with affection and kindness.

My ears are recently full of joyous remarks from my friends such as, “oh, Beckham is so handsome, so cool, that I can’t help falling in love with him!” or “what perfect skills he has!” Yeah, I agree 21 some degree, though I sometimes do want to ask them how much they 22 Beckham, apart from his appearance and how much they know about football 23 scoring goals. It seems funny that we are crazy for things, with which we are unfamiliar or 24 we are uncertain, but we all, my friends 25 I, consider this 26 .
We need these pleasures to brighten up our lives. But that doesn’t amount to craziness 27 nonsense. As an old saying_28_: “Don’t judge a book by its cover.” We should not __29__anything from its appearance. We should all know, it is one’s good character and great contribution that _30__one a star and unforgettable. Therefore we’d better say __31_about Beckham’s good looks
If we close our eyes, ___32__in deep thought, we can find that the things__33__us to be in true happy, sad or moved ___34__a clear meaning. If we don’t go deeper and just satisfied with superficial(表面) things , ___35__we will find that we have not really gained anything ___36__ our first impression had blinded and misled us, and we’ll remain ignorant___37___ we realize that and make some changes.
It is believed that thinking and going deeper than before is sign of great___38___. If one day we are willing to go deeper into everything, no matter how much it _39___us, we will finally prove how much we have grown up, how much more sensible, mature, and intelligent we have __40__.

I grew up poor – living with six brothers, my father and a wonderful mother．We had 26 money and few worldly goods, but plenty of love and attention．I was 27 and energetic．I understood that no matter how poor a person was, they could 28 afford a dream．
My dream was to be a 29 ．When I was sixteen, I could crush a baseball, throw a ninety – mile – per – hour fastball．I was also 30 : my high – school coach was Ollie Jarvis, who 31 me the difference between having a dream and showing strong belief．One particular 32 with him changed my life forever．
It was a summer and a friend recommended me for a summer 33 ．This meant a chance for my first income – cash for a new bike and new clothes, and the 34 of savings for a house for my mother．The opportunity was attracting, and I wanted to 35 at it．
Then I realized I would have to 36 summer baseball to handle the work schedule, and that meant I would have to tell Coach Jarvis I wouldn’t be playing．I was 37 about this．
When I told Coach Jarvis, he was as 38 as I expected him to be．“You have your whole life to work,” he said．“Your 39 days are limited．You can’t afford to waste them．”
I stood before him with my head 40 , trying to think of how to explain to him why my dream of buying my mom a house and having money in my pocket was worth 41 his disappointment in me．
“How much are you going to make at this job?” he demanded．
“$ 3．25 an hour,” I replied．
“Well, is $ 3．25 an hour the price of a 42 ?” he asked．
That 43 laid bare for me the difference between wanting something right now and having a goal．I devoted myself to 44 that summer, and within the year I was offered a $ 20,000 contract．I signed with the Denver Broncos in 1984 for $ 1．7 million, and bought my mother the 45 of my dreams．

This was an unforgettable and wonderful experience．It happened about three years ago and it has had a 26 effect on me．I would like to show respect here for the two men I do not know 27 but whose actions gave a new 28 to the words — kind and generous．
I was walking down a busy street on a cold, windy day in early 29 , A homeless man, probably about 60 and without wearing any shoes, was 30 for change on a street corner．
A BMW car 31 on the other side of the street and an executive（主管）who was perfectly dressed stepped out of the car．He was probably about 32 years old．He was wearing a blue business suit with a deep red silk tie．He walked33across the street and over to the homeless man．Without saying anything, he first gave him a lot of 34 and then he sat down and took off his leather gloves（手套）, beautiful black leather shoes and his black dress socks．Then he 35 them to th
e homeless man．The homeless man took them and stared with a/an 36 mouth．
As he drove off, I couldn’t 37 thinking that it was probably the first time he had 38 the pedal（ 踏板）of that top-brand BMW car with a 39 foot! I stood there and the looks of 40 appeared on my face and the homeless man’s．
Two men of about the same age 41 very different lives had met and the one who was42 in materials had offered 43 than his shoes．He had left this BMW car and 44 down from his high position．He lifted up the other man when he offered respect, 45 and real generosity．
