It was a cold evening and my daughter and I were walking up Broadway．I didn’t notice a guy sitting inside a cardboard box．But Nora did．She wasn’t even four, but she 36 at my coat and said, “That man’s cold, Daddy, 37 we take him home?”
I don’t remember my reply．But I do remember a sudden 38 feeling inside me．I had always been delighted at how much my daughter noticed in her 39 , whether it was 40 in flight or children playing．But now she was noticing 41 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 42 it to an elderly person．It was quick and easy．I 43 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 the way to the school, I fought an urge 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 apartment belonged to someone poor．Our hostess showed us some photos．Nora played and when it came time to say good-bye, we three hugged, I walked home in tears．
Professionals call such a（n） 51 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 52 that’s good for others as well as for yourself? Nora and I regularly serve meals to needy people and 53 clothes for the homeless．Yet, as I’ve 54 her grow over these past four years, I still wonder ------ which of us has 55 more?

Not only could they call you if necessary, but 43 Global Positioning Systems (GPS) equipped on many mobile phones today, your son and his friend could also be 44 easily. Plus, with an additional service, you could track the boys' 45 location. Or consider this: If your daughter is 46 herself and three friends to a concert, she could 47 out exactly how to locate the concert location and get back home by using her equipped cell phone.And through a(n) 48 software package,you could 49 her whereabouts (行踪).
50 tracking devices as we all consider useful, however, have 51 .If the boys urgently needed help during the ride, 52 might be too late by the time someone found them.
