“The way we choose to respond when others make mistakes can cause them to feel ashamed or can allow them to remember our kindness and share our stories with future generations．”
——Michelle Sedas
When I read the above quote I couldn’t help but Doris．She had been a science teacher by ，but she also was a very person．All around her room were dolls that she had made．They were the most interesting dolls I’d ever seen；each was very from the other．
By talking to Doris I learned she’d a class in doll making．One day while I was in her room she took one of the dolls out of the case to me．This doll was very with fine artistic work．I was that anyone could do such unique work．
As Doris was the doll carefully in her hand，I could see a slight break in the skirt．I was to know what happened．Doris said that on the way to class she the side of the skirt．She expressed how scared she was and almost didn’t go to at a11．When it came her to show the doll to the teacher，she had to point out the in the skirt．Doris felt for sure that the doll would be because of it．Much to her surprise the teacher told her she was just going to this break and grade the doll on the other good it had．Doris shared that this remark and from the teacher changed her life．
This teacher could have made Doris feel by her mistake．But her willingness to ignore the mistake，Doris was sharing her kindness with the next generation．

The smell of old, dusty books reminds me of my father. A greedy(贪婪的) 36 , he had many books, most of which went unread.
He owned books on 37 from medicine to history and to several sets of encyclopedias (百科全书). When I enter one of his 38 bookshops where he used to buy books, such as Powell's, I am 39 back to a time when the two of us were 40 . I saw him standing by a bookshelf, 41 through a medical magazine, or opening his wallet to pay for yet 42 book, knowing well that Mom would 43 him on "waste money on books and you will never 44 !" I can not hold back my smiling at his mixed feelings, and the impressive memories always strike me even today.
Walking past rows and rows of books in our study, I remember 45 , after the cancer struck, he came less and less and read fewer and fewer books. They became just part of the 46 , collecting only dust and 47.
Near the end, perhaps knowing he would never get to read them all, he gave almost all of the books away, 48 only a few. He treated them with an almost holy (神圣的) respect, 49 any crease (皱褶) or damage would destroy them totally. 50 was the man who would pay little attention to a huge 
coffee mark on a book, replaced by one who would burst into terrible 51 even at a small crease.
I have read a few now after he died, and each time it 52 a hurt in my heart. But I suppose it is a kind of quest (追求), because if I can take on his eagerness for 53, his cheerful smile for happiness, and his willingness to help others, then like a match in the darkness, I will bring a little light into the world. And if that light 54 others, maybe it will spread far and wide, 55 up the heavens. I think he'd like that.
