On my birthday this year, I decided to do something very different. I had been 31 so much and I wanted to reach out to bring happiness to someone else. So, that 32 , I bought some flowers and went to a hospital. I had no 33 who I was going to present the flowers to, but I would find someone who needed 34 .
I asked the nurses in the hospital, who thought it 35 that I didn’t have anyone in particular to see. 36 , they gave me the room number of a(n) 37 lady, who needed some comfort.
I entered the room with the flowers. The elderly woman looked up, staring at me 38 . She was greatly moved when I told her about my 39 in being there.

My son, Marcus, eight, and my daughter, Ellen, ten, picked several 37 hot peppers and entered our workroom, with their 38 ．They wanted to see if Sam could 39 more hot peppers than I. After a little joking with them we agreed to the contest but they had to 40 ，too. That was not 41 terms for them so they left the room.
They 42 about an hour later with a new proposal and new hot peppers they had just picked． 43 they had reasoned that when a pepper was 44 in color it was the hottest kind. Marcus and Ellen would eat the green colored peppers 45 Sam and I would eat the red colored peppers. Giving Sam a wink（使眼色），we 46 . Showing good sportsmanship（体育精神），I had the kids 47 the peppers that Sam and I would eat. They picked the largest two red peppers. Then they picked a 48 green one for themselves.

The contest was one of speed rather than 52 ．Each child had pepper in hand and was 53 to start .
Looking at my 54 I said, OK, on three. One, Two, THREE. So much happened all at once. Tears, screams and spitting running around, the children 55 their mouth with fast waving hands. A short time later, Sam and I agreed that the red tasted better than the green.

The day before Father’s Day, Mrs. Berry asked her students to __36 ___ a card for their fathers. She passed out paper and pieces of cloth.
Elizabeth looked for a while at the blue cloth and began to cut it. Then she folded (折)her paper in half and began writing. When Elizabeth finally looked at the message the teacher gave on the paper, she noticed something else. She felt her 37 grow hot — she hadn’t heard that anyone who didn’t have a father could make one for a grandfather or an uncle.
As her teacher walked to her, Elizabeth tried 38 her card with her arm, but Mrs Berry gently 39 it so that she could read it. Elizabeth sat 40 , waiting for her to say something, but she saw a 41 roll down Mrs Berry’s face. She had never made Mrs Berry so upset.
When school was over, Elizabeth 42 until all the other kids left so that she could 43 . “I’m sorry for not listening. I’ll make another card 44 you want. I’ll do it 45 and bring it tomorrow.”
“ 46 are you talking about?” asked Mrs Berry.
“My Father’s Day card. I know you’re upset because I didn’t do it 47 .”
“Elizabeth, that was the 48 card in the whole class. It was so 49 that it made me cry.”
Elizabeth was so 50 that she ran out of the classroom.
When her mom came home from work that night, Elizabeth 51 to give her the card early.
On the front of the card was a 52 of Elizabeth’s mom, with a blue piece of cloth cut like her hair. Inside the card she had written:
Dear Mom,
I know you work really hard to be both a mommy and a(n) 53 . I want to thank you and 54 you a happy Father’s Day!
Love,
Elizabeth
