A Beautiful Dress
My neighbor’s eight-year-old daughter used to live in the countryside, her native place. Recently her parents 51 her to town to live with them. Wild and uneducated, she would use 52 words when she was angry. Sometimes she went so far as to 53 on the ground, to the 54 of all people around. Her parents tried to 55 her by beating and kicking. However, she became more 56 . Finally they became thoroughly 57 with her.
One day their next-door 58 , a retired teacher, gave the girl a snow-white dress, which was very 59 . It immediately caught the girl’s 60 and made them shine brightly.
The girl put on the dress and became quite a 61 person. She no longer acted rudely or hit others. She 62 seldom rolled on the floor. She knew running wild was not 63 for her in a beautiful dress. Since then, the girl had been 64 , neat, and lovely.
The story set me 65 a lot. Perhaps everyone has a beautiful dress 66 somewhere in his or her heart. Only some people are not aware of it, 67 it or take no notice of it. 68 is a powerful force or weapon — that’s something 69 by many of us. It can arouse fine qualities that humans are 70 with but have so far hidden somewhere. It has a soul-shaking influence that is indeed unmatched.

Not long ago, someone asked the dad of a young pop star what his son would have done if he hadn’t become a singer. The father said he had 36 considered anything else. This was his Plan A. There had been no Plan B. I 37 this to my son Marty, who was studying musical theater at college,when he was thinking about a second 38 in business or teaching.
“Just study what you’re interested in ,” I said.

My friend had mentioned that her father had a lot of children’s toys that he was looking to give away. She knew I had a three-year-old daughter so she thought of me first. I told her I would 36 it if I could get some nice things for my daughter, which I wouldn’t otherwise have been able
to 37 .
When I met her father, he began to explain that he was 38 once too and that he would hate to 39 things that could be very 40 . At first, he thought of taking everything to the Salvation Army but then he 41 to see if anyone he knew could use them first.
When he was 42 me around, I saw a bed, a slide(滑板),a kitchen set and many other things that made me surprised. As my eyes were wide and beginning to tear up a bit, he told me not to feel guilty. He said I was 43 him by getting rid of them.
