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.

The boy 46 me a strange look, then stood up. As he left he shouted out,” This 47 is crazy.” Everyone stared. That was embarrassing（令人难堪的）enough, but it was worse when I finished my coffee and got ready to 48 . My face went red—as red as his hair—when I 49 I’d made a mistake. It wasn’t my chocolate that he had been taking. There was mine, unopened, just 50 my newspaper.

I have been working since I was thirteen, and always in 34 in which I was working with adults. I have had to learn to think and 35 like an adult to be taken seriously. So, I count myself as one who has grown up too fast. I just graduated from high school, and have recently spent some time reflecting（反思）on the 36 eighteen years － thinking about myself, what I have gained, and what 37 I have yet to achieve.
We are expected to work hard, get excellent 38 , be in a good relationship, and know what we want to do 39 . The list goes on and on. But the 40 is clear: We live in a society today that is 41 our childhood. We no longer have many years to be careless and fancy-free. We are expected to 42 the strict school rules and to excel（擅长）in everything we do.
I’ve known these things for a long time, and knew that they 43 me. But, I never really admitted it until last night, when I learned a 44 lesson, taught to me by my boss where I work. We had finished a job at a remote site. It was about 11:30 at night, and we had 45 to his house. We were talking about the 46 he had been making to his home. One of the things he said was “I 47 my basketball hoop（篮圈）. ”Then he threw a basketball to me.
I hadn’t 48 a basketball in five years.
We proceeded to shoot hoops for about 5 minutes. Both of us were terribly bad at it, but we spent the whole time 49 like children. Then I realized something: I am still a child. Oh, the law says I’m an adult. But, we are still really and truly children. We all need to have 50_ once in a while.

"I think not－my headache is getting to be pretty 44 ."

Once upon a time there was a prince who wanted to marry a princess, but she would have to be a real princess. He travelled all over the world to find one, but 36 could he get what he wanted. There were enough princesses, but it was 37 to find out whether they were real ones. There was always something about them that was not as it 38 be. So he came home again and was sad, 39 he would have liked very much to have a real princess.
One evening a terrible storm 40 ; there was thunder and lightning, and the rain poured down in torrents. Suddenly a knocking was 41 at the city gate, and the old king went to open it. It was a princess 42 out there in front of the gate. But, good gracious! what 43 the rain and the wind had 44 her look. The water ran down from her hair and clothes; it ran down into the toes of her shoes and out again at the heels. 45 she said that she was a real princess.
“Well, we'll soon find that out.” 46 the old queen. But she said nothing, went into the bed-room, took all the bedding off the bedstead, and 47 a pea on the bottom; then she took twenty mattresses（床垫）and put 48 on the pea, and then twenty eiderdownbeds（鸭绒被）on top of the 49 .
On this the princess had to lie all night. In the morning she was asked 50 she had slept. "Oh, very badly!" said she. "I have 51 closed my eyes all night. Heaven only knows what was in the bed, but I was lying on something hard, 52 I am black and blue all over my body. It's horrible!"
Now they knew that she was a real princess because she had 53 the pea right through the twenty mattresses and the twenty eider-down beds.
Nobody but a real princess could be as 54 as that.
So the prince took her for his wife, for now he knew that he had a real princess. And the pea was put in the museum, 55 it may still be seen, if no one has stolen it.
