It was a very cold evening, an old man was waiting for a ride across the river. He saw several horsemen pass by but he didn’t ask for any help. The wait seemed   31 (end). Then came another rider, the old man   32 (catch) his eye and said, “Sir, would you mind doing me a favor?”
Stopping his horse, he replied, “Of course.” Almost   33 (freeze), the old man could not get   34  the ground. The horseman helped him onto his horse. He took the o1d man not just across the river,   35  to his home.
“Sir, you didn’t even ask the other riders for help, why? What   36  I had said ‘no’ and 1eft you there?” the horseman asked.
The old man looked at him straight in the eyes and said, “I looked into their eyes, I found they didn’t care,   37  told me it would be useless, but when I looked into   38 , I saw kindness.”
These words touched the rider deeply. “Thank you for   39  you’ve said, I hope I will never be too busy to help others.” With that, Thomas Jefferson, the   40 (three) president of the US, turned his horse around and went away.

It is said that a short-tempered man in the Song Dynasty (960-1279) was very anxious to help3rice crop grow up quickly. He was thinking about4day and night. But the crop was growing much slower than he expected.

One day, he came up with an idea5he would pluck up all of his crop a few inches. He did so the next day.

He was very tired6doing this for a whole day,7he felt very happy since the crop did "grow"8(high).

It was then   25   that the fairies had come and stolen the baby away and   26   the human baby with a fairy Changeling. There were many ways to prevent this from happening: hanging a knife over the baby’s head while he slept or covering him with some of his father’s clothes were just two of the recommended   27  . However, hope was not lost even if the baby had been   28  . In those cases there was often a way to get the   29   baby back.
