One day I was doing a big clean-up when I         a knotted handkerchief with an old dark brown coin inside. I took one look and immediately         an unforgettable time.
In 1991, I spent five months in Niger, with sandstorms and great heat. Its       and beggars were my biggest and most constant complaint. Street beggars would continually reach out their hands, shouting “Gift! Gift!”
One day, I           for neighboring Burking to work in a health clinic.
Arriving by taxi at our destination in Burkina, we began to          . In darkness, a motorbike with two men approached slowly. Without any         , one of them grabbed my pack as the motorbike swept close by. Within seconds, the two were out of sight,        up by the night.
The bag had my passport, money, traveler’s cheques, a camera, an airline ticket and other things           to me. I was in deep trouble.
In the weeks that followed, I       guarded the rest of my valuables and regarded all           with suspicion. All I wanted was to leave this place.
Then, walking through Burkina’s streets, I met with an old woman. “Gift! Gift!” she cried. I’d had enough. I was           of the country: its poverty(贫困), its thieves, the heat, and the dust. I told her angrily, “A thief stole all my money and now I can’t          out of your country. I cannot give you anything.”
The woman beggar listened attentively and          my words. Then she reached          the folds of her dress.
“Then I will give you a gift,” she announced. Kindly, she placed an old, dark brown coin in my hand. I looked at it in          . It was a very small amount of money, but for this woman, the coin          a meal. At that moment, I felt a shame. In spit of her          , she was able to give me something priceless.
I saw then the          beauty of the people of Burkina, and appreciated deeply the quiet           of the poor. With the old woman’s gift, I hope never to part with the coin she gave me. With one small coin, she           my concept completely.

28   they entered the classroom. The professor passed out the papers. And smiles   29 on the students’ faces as they found there were only five questions.
Three hours had passed   30   the professor began to collect papers. The students no longer looked confident. On their faces was a frightened expression. Papers in hand, no one spoke as the professor faced the class.
He looked at the   31   faces before him, and then asked: “How many completed all five questions?”   32   a hand was raised.
“How many answered four?” Still no hand.
“One, then? Certainly somebody finished   33 .” But the class remained silent.
