I enjoyed it so much that I couldn’t put off telling my parents any longer, 41 I brought the subject up one night over dinner. 42 there was silence, and then my father asked me why. I explained that cooking was 43 painting a picture or writing a book. Every meal was a work of creation. I could see that my father disagreed, but he was not 44 . He just looked at me and smiled. My mother kissed me. And now I have my own restaurant, and it goes well. I can see they are 45 me. However, my grandfather thinks I’m mad to give up farming.

Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D．Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context．
Imagine that Mom and Dad have friends over, and you have to talk to adults all evening．Say the wrong thing and the parents may get mad．But, say _50_, and they'll think you weren't friendly．So, _51_can you talk with adults?
It's _52_．Just ask them questions about themselves．"Many of them like to talk about what they do for a living," suggests psychologist Tim Ursiny, author of The Confidence Plan．
Kids can also talk to grown-ups about _53_．Ask what the last good movie they saw was, because people at dinner parties "_54_" when the conversation turns to movies, Ursiny says．If a grown-up is _55_ Harry Potter, it's ok to talk about your love for Harry．It's a safe topic, one that both grown-ups and kids can enjoy, so go ahead and talk about whether Dumbledore is really dead．
But _56_the topic of video games．"Adults don't want to hear about your video game _57_they play it," Ursiny explains．
Adults also don't want to hear slang．Don't use language they don't _58_．Ursiny says kids should learn to speak to other people in their own language．

Also, don't chat about things that make your parents feel guilty．Don't mention _62_ stuff such as how Dad has been sleeping on the couch, Ursiny says．And don't complain that Mom has been late preparing breakfast．
Instead, Ursiny says, kids should try to put themselves in their parents' _63_．Learning how to _64_that type of understanding might help you out in the future．"The most successful people, can develop a sympathetic feeling for others," he says．

As a saying goes, every bean has its black. It is impossible to make no mistakes all one’s life. My grandpa Nybakken, a carpenter（木匠）, is no 41 . Several decades ago he made a mistake – a perfect mistake, 42 .
On a cold Saturday, Mother’s father was building some wooden cases for the clothes his church was sending to an orphanage (孤儿院) in China. On his way home, he reached into his shirt pocket to find his glasses, but they were gone. He remembered put
ting them there that morning, so he drove back to the church. His search proved fruitless.
When he 43 replayed his earlier actions, he realized what happened. The glasses had slipped out of his pocket unnoticed and fallen into one of the cases, which he had nailed shut. His brand new glasses, having 44 him ￡20 that very morning, were heading for China! He had to drive home 45 .
Several months later, the director of the orphanage came to give a report on Sunday night at my grandfather’s church, which Grandpa and his family also attended.
“But most of all,” he said, “I must thank you for the 46 you sent last year. You see, the bandits(土匪) had just 47 t
hrough the orphanage, destroying everything, including my glasses. I was desperate.”
“ 48 I had the money, there was simply no way of 49 those glasses. 50 headaches every day. Then your cases arrived. When my staff 51 the covers, they found a pair of glasses lying on top.”
Then, still gripped (吸引注意) with the 52 of it all, he continued: “When I tried on the glasses, it was as though they had been made just for me! I want to thank you for being a part of that!”
The people listened, 53 for the miraculous（奇迹的） glasses. But the director surely must have 54 their church with another, they thought. There were no glasses on their 55 of items to be sent overseas.
But sitting quietly in the back, with tears streaming down his face, an ordinary carpenter realized the Master Carpenter had used him in an extraordinary way.

Teaching my first child, Danae, to share her toys was the biggest challenge. To 36 this, we started inviting other children to play, which could help Danae discover that it’s 37 to share with others – a lesson I needed to 38 myself as well, as it 39 .

Isn’t that what life is all about?

To my family and friends,
I have just started my tour of the area badly affected by the war. Everything is going really well, so no 16 . The land is beautiful but unfortunately it has a lot of 17 too. Let me 18 .
Last week, 120 school girls were 19 by a gas leak（泄漏）. Most have recovered but six are still in 20 . Even though the local government speaks about the 21 of education, most of the kids here only attend school for four hours a day if they are lucky. They are so excited and 22 to learn, but then have to 23 things like being attacked. Most of these kids are 24 and can’t afford a pencil or even paper. So I’m planning a trip to several schools to talk about 25 and to give these kids some of the 26 they need. That is where all of you can help. If you can 27 whatever school supplies you have available, that would be 28 appreciated.
I know how busy you are so thank you for taking the 29 to do this and I will post pictures of this 30 after I return.
Thank you again.

The man leaned on his 39 who walked in front of him．He not only used her for 40 but it was obvious that he was blind．The two of them _41 as one—each needing the other to 42 in this fast-changing world．
That little example of true strength 43 my whole personal perception(理解) of life that day．Suddenly I wasn’t so 44 having to work a few extra hours on Saturdays．I had my 45 ，and I was still 46 young．
That picture of those two elderly people walking with dignity(尊严) and strength 47 me the entire week．My 48 wasn’t so bad after all．I had my health and a good job．I had a wonderful， 49 wife．I started to think—not only was I 50 to have these all, but so was that wonderful old couple，who，_51 the trials and sufferings of a long life，still had the love and support of each other to 52 them through this world．
There are so many people out there just like that couple．My wife and I sometimes 53 ourselves in our old age, walking arm in arm into the sunset. That image always gives us a 54 feeling．Just remember, none of us would be here if it wasn’t for our elders．We all should spend a little extra time and patience, 55 helping our elder friends．
