The night was dark, though sometimes the moving clouds allowed a star or two to be seen in the sky. The poor men held on to any bit of wood they could find. They called to the Marie (圣母玛丽亚) for 36 , but she was far 37 the reach of the human voice. At one o’clock in the morning, the water was getting 38 , and a strong 39 had begun to blow. Suddenly 40 were seen in the distance; another ship! The shouts of the swimmers were heard on board, and willing hands pulled them out of the water. The 41 of the ship that had so 42 arrived on the scene in time to save their lives was Ellen. What had brought her to the exact spot through the 43 and the pathless sea? Her captain had known 44 about the wreck (沉船) and had indeed attempted to sail away from it. But let him speak for himself.
“I was forced by the wind,” he said long afterwards, “to 45 my course (航道). Just as I did it, a small 46 flew across the ship once or twice and then 47 at my face. I took 48 of this until exactly the same thing happened at a 49 time, which caused me to think it rather 50 , while I was thus 51 it, the same bird for the third time, made its appearance and flew 52 in the same way as before. I was then 53 to change my course back to the original (原来的) one. I had not gone far 54 I heard strange noises; and when I tried to 55 where they came from, I found I was in the middle of people who had been shipwrecked (船只失事). I immediately did my best to save them.”

“The paint was melting on the car; it was so 28 ,” recalled Miller.
Harvey and Miller attached a nylon strap(尼龙带) between Harvey’s truck and the car in an effort to pull it away from the burning jeep. The first two 29 failed.

The Pecan Thief
When I was six years old, I was visiting my grandfather’s
farm in Kansas. Grandpa had sent me into the 36 to gather
pecans for us to enjoy later.
Pecan picking was really 37 work and my little basket
was only half full. I wasn’t about to 38 Grandpa down. Just
then something caught my 39 . A large brown squirrel was
a few feet away. I watched as he picked up a pecan, hurried to a tree and 40 in a large hole in the trunk. A moment later the squirrel 41 out and climbed down to the ground to pick up another nut. Once again, he took the pecan back to his hiding place.
Not so 42 anymore, I thought. I dashed over to the tree and looked into the hole. It was 43 with pecans! Golden pecans were right there for taking. This was my 44 . Handful by handful, I scooped all of those pecans into my basket. Now it was full! I was so 45 of myself. I couldn’t wait to show Grandpa all the pecans. 46 , I ran back and shouted, “Look at all the pecans!” He looked into the basket and said, “Well, well, how did you find so many?” I told him how I’d 47 the squirrel and taken the pecans from his hiding place.
Grandpa congratulated me on how smart I’d been in observing the squirrel and his habits. Then he did something that 48 me. He handed the basket back to me and put his arm gently 49 my shoulders.
“That squirrel worked very hard to gather his winter 50 of food,” he said. “Now that all of his pecans are gone, don’t you think that little squirrel will 51 the cold winter? ”
“I didn’t think about that, ” I said.
“I know,” Grandpa said. “But a good man should never take 52 of someone else’s hard work.”
Suddenly I felt a bit 53 . The image of the starving squirrel wouldn’t 54 my mind. There was only one thing I could do. I carried the basket back to the tree and poured all the nuts into the hole.
I didn’t eat any pecans that night, but I had something much more filling—the 55 of knowing I had done just the right thing.
