It was 4 o’clock in the morning, when I received the phone call.

The doctor described the   19 , which caused the burns. At 6 a.m, our son and his friends decided to barbecue hamburgers in the courtyard of their apartment. When they   20   the charcoal(木炭), it burst into flames because they had sprayed too much gasoline(petrol). The flames    21   my son’s shirt tail and shot from his waist to well over his head.
22 , one of the boys was quick-minded, grasped my son, and   23   him on the grass. While it saved his life, it was not in   24   to save him from severe burns and the terrible scars(伤疤).
After he   25   from the treatments, the doctors told him they would not do plastic surgery(整容)for 6 months   26   it takes that long for the skin to stop shrinking and wrinkling. So, he had to return to college with scars typical of severe burns.
When I was a child, my mother told my sister, who had a 10-inch very   27   scar on her arm, “Nancy, if you ignore the scar, other people will ignore it. It does not mean they will not   28   it, but it means it will not matter to them if it doesn’t matter to you.”
I   29   this wisdom on to my son. He took my advice to   30   and returned to school with his head held high--- glad he was alive.
By the end of the six-month waiting period, he decided that the scars did not   31 , so he made the   32   to give up any plastic surgery we all have “scars” that we believe   33   people to keep away from us. And we spend a lot of time thinking that if only we looked differently, or dressed differently, people would like us better.
But you see, people will only judge you by your looks, or your clothes, if you are judging yourself by these same   34   standards. Put your imperfections out of your mind and concentrate on what you value   35    yourself, and your beauty will shine through.

“Two books per visit per week,” said the unsmiling librarian as she handed a library card. Neither the limits nor her attitude   16   me, a 9 – year – old Jewish girl growing up in Berlin in the 1950s. I needed those visits. The books were filled with stories in which, however   17 things seemed, everything   18   well in the end,   19   justice, bravery, and wisdom –--- a striking contrast (对比) to my everyday experiences.
Thirty years later, I, a recent immigrant to the US with a daughter aged 13, stood in front of another librarian. This librarian was   20 .
“What did she say?” I asked my daughter, who already knew a little English and often   21 as my interpreter.
“She said ‘Can I help you?’”
“Ask if they have any books in   22 ,” I requested.
“No, they don’t.” translated my daughter.
While hunting for a job, I was told that the library needed people to   23   books. The interview was short –--- the job didn’t require much English, just a   24   of the alphabet. I started the next day. Every day, I handled hundreds of books whose meaning was   25   from me, mentally dividing them by size and color. One day, while shelving, I found English for Beginners and began studying it on my own.   26   English letters started forming words I could   27 , words combined into phrases, and –--- oh,   28 ! –-- I was reading. It was a slow process, supported by dictionaries and   29 by tears, but it was progress. Afterwards I got promoted to the front desk -----   30   books in and out and answering simple questions.
Every day I receive dozens of people. Sometimes I spot new immigrants. They come from all over the world, so they look different, but the hesitant expression on their faces and their   31   manners are similar. My heart goes out to them,   32   they are people like me. I fully understand the   33   roads on which they have stepped. “They’ve come to the right place,” I think to   34 . Then I smile and say – just the   35   a librarian said to me a long time ago –--- “Can I help you?”

You have no doubt heard people say how much they “ need” a holiday, when what they really mean is that they want one. Certainly, people working under pressure feel a very strong desire to escape from work and become less tight during their holidays, and experience a changed environment.
However, work for many people today is office work and mental, rather than physical tasks. These people may seek much more energy-taking activities while on holiday, rather than on a beach.
Once people become used to going holiday, __________________________. For many people, the holiday is one of the last things to be given up, and indeed many workers have chosen to spend some of their last pay when being on holiday. It may give them a “lift” in facing some difficulties in life.
Most of us enjoy showing off the lovely trans-dark skins we get from a holiday. So many tourists are now able to afford holidays in the sun that tans have become quite common; although we join a tan together with health, it has been fully shown that too much sunshine will result in high danger of skin problems, as well as drying out one’s skin and leading to more lines on your face later in life.
76．What’s the best title of the passage? (Please answer within 10 words.)
_______________________________________________________________________.
77．Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?
Hard working people want a holiday very much to free from work and get relaxeD．
